Case studies are an excellent way of delivering ICT theory.

They allow students to learn about the theoretical aspects of a topic by accessing and answering questions about news stories that are up-to-date, relevant and interesting.

These case studies could be used during the lesson to support the theory that you have covered, they could be used as an extension task for students who are aiming for higher grades or they could be given as homework to help consolidate learning.

The case studies are only available to subscribers but here are some examples to give you an idea of the different types of case study available.
