From my perspectives, a case study is a method of analysis and research strategy that
investigates a single individual, group, event, decisions, periods, policies, institutions, problem,
or phenomenon within a real-life context. It also aims to deeper understand research questions,
find previously hidden issues, and predict the future trends. Its methods can be both quantitative,
qualitative, or a mix of between the two. (Mills et al, 2010 & Press Academia, 2018. It is used in
various social science studies area, especially in social, educational, clinical public
administration, and business research. (Shona, 2019).
The main difference between case studies and literature review is that the latter is
focused on providing background information which enables interpretation of the subject and
research problems used to address on the analysis. (Mills et al, 2010)
There are five strategies I considered it as important in order to write a good case study
paper. First, it is to read the case and understand the instruction clearly. Second, it is to know
your source. Journals, books, and google scholar are examples of the sources. Third, it is to
research. In this step, you must conduct detailed research, write its findings. Citing and
referencing are commonly used to confirm your source. Fourth, it is to give conclusions and
recommendations. The writer should give a detailed summary of the analysis, inform opinions,
and give suggestions on the case study. Finally, it is to write an outline, then the first draft and
finally update the relevant information related to the paper. (Grandes, 2018)
Writing case studies are mixed of art and science. It requires many skills. Writers must
understand the case problems clearly, know their research questions, cover the related issues in
the case studie.Finally, writer must write in an organized, polite, clear and logic way. In addition,
recommendations and suggestions to the case studies must be included.
