Case Analysis and Case Writing
Case Methodology is a popular pedagogical tool in teaching management courses.
Case studies are designed to help in linking a ‘real life’ example to a bigger picture which may be a broad trend or a theory. In preparing or writing a case study, an author has to analyse a specific case in all its complexity and explain the elements.
Case study analysis requires investigation of a business problem, and examination of the alternative solutions to propose the most effective solutions using supportive evidence.
The workshop aims to guide the participants in case study analysis and writing.
Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Technique using AMOS.
This Faculty Development program aims to develop an understanding of Structural Equation Modeling using AMOS.
In the present scenario of technological and social change, data has become one of the most important sources of decision-making. Methodology and modelling are the two important tools available for data analysis.
SEM is an extension of the general linear model (GLM) that enables a researcher to test a set of regression equations simultaneously. SEM software can test traditional models and also permit the examination of more complex relationships and models, such as confirmatory factor analysis and time series analysis.
