The course module will be about case study research as practiced in the Information Systems (IS) discipline. In the first session, we will see the different forms of qualitative research published in the IS literature, and talk about implications for us as researchers and as evaluators. Next, we will analyze papers published in four “mainstream” journals (MISQ, ISR, JAIS, and JMIS), and summarize the characteristics of “successful” papers. In the following session, we will critically analyze 10 case research articles that have been published in leading journals. Participants will be asked to read the 10-12 articles provided about 2 weeks in advance. Further, each student (with 1-2 other team-members) will be asked to present a summary and methodological critique of an assigned paper from this set of 10-12 papers. In the final session, we will continue with our analysis of the 10-12 articles (from the previous session). Finally, to conclude, we will summarize the key lessons learned in the module, focusing on data collection, data analysis, theorizing, and representation for journal publications.
