15.7 Evaluation: Presentation and Analysis of Case Study

Case studies follow a structure of background and context, methods, findings, and analysis. Body paragraphs should have main points and concrete details. In addition, case studies are written in formal language with precise wording and with a specific purpose and audience (generally other professionals in the field) in mind. Case studies also adhere to the conventions of the discipline’s formatting guide (APA Documentation and Format in this study). Compare your case study with the following rubric as a final check.
