Dear Colleagues :

I have to teach a module where students will not have any preparation time,
hence I’d need very short cases (vs classical 20-40 p format) that could be
read quickly at beginning of class.

Also, I sometimes wonder how to deal with the practical constraints imposed
by paying cases, which my institution can afford, but imply difficulties to:
* distribute electronic copy
* cite in online video
* use when visiting in poorer institutions, etc.

I remember coming across journal that published cases, and wonder if that
could be a solution.

Or any other solutions, for instance I wonder if open source material is
being produce in management education field.

If the source depends on the subject, my current objective is to build a
corporate entrepreneurship module, but I’m, in general, interested in
Entrepreneurship and OB/OT cases that would have such properties (short +
potentially free of rights).

Best,

Dear Fabrice,

The case journals with which I am familiar, including the one I edit,
require royalties for the use of cases by students. However, one of our
distributors, ECCH, has some free cases available from other sources.

Fabrice,

On my website, I have a small collection of OB cases, some short (1-3 pages), others longer. They're downloadable and available for use at no charge, so maybe you'll find something useful.

The link is: http://www.bolman.com/cases.htm .

Good luck with your module.

Dear Fabrice,

You may also want to check the oikos free case collection:
http://www.oikos-international.org/academic/case-collection/free-cases.html

At the moment only three of our cases are available as free cases but our
free collection is growing.

You can also check inspection copies (and case purchase information) for
other winning cases here:

Dear Fabrice,

I invite you to browse the free, on-line wiki-cases-on-management site, https://wiki.shanti.virginia.edu/display/wikiCASES/Home
I also invite you and your students to add cases to the wiki-site as you wish.
Let me know if I can help in any way.
