NORTH AMERICAN CASE RESEARCH ASSOCIATION (NACRA)

2002 CALL FOR CASES / PAPERS / SYMPOSIA

The North American Case Research Association (NACRA) will hold its 2002 meeting at The Banff Conference Centre in Banff, Alberta, Canada, from Thursday, October 3 through Saturday, October 5, 2002. Banff is 78 miles west of Calgary (and only an hour away from beautiful Lake Louise) in the Canadian Rockies.

NACRA is a collaborative organization of approximately 450 case writers and teachers, mostly in the business disciplines, who support each other¬s research and writing efforts. NACRA¬s annual conference features roundtable discussions where all participants receive knowledgeable suggestions about their cases in a constructive atmosphere. The goal of these workshops is to help authors develop their cases for use in the classroom and for publication in refereed journals, such as NACRA¬s Case Research Journal, and/or textbooks. Cases, case-related papers, and proposals are invited from all fields that use cases as part of their teaching methodologies, including business, education, hospitality/tourism, and health care.

Cases may deal with any topic in any academic discipline where dynamic classroom discussion is useful. NACRA prefers cases that are decision-oriented and based on field research. Cases and case-related papers must be original work based on real events, real people, and real organizations, and must not have been previously published or accepted for publication elsewhere, either in journals or books.

The conference also offers a workshop on case writing and teaching for faculty and graduate students who wish to learn more about these areas. This is an opportunity for people who have never written a case to learn more about this process. A person new to case research may also submit a proposal for a case study to a special case development track.

The submission deadline is June 3, 2002. Detailed instructions for submissions are available on the NACRA web site: www.nacra.net
