Financial Management Cases1
The case method is an approach to management education and development of professional skills complementary to the traditional lecture. The traditional teaching of matrix Continental ideally sees the student as an empty basket, presenting the teacher the opportunity to, in the time available, insert knowledge, hoping that this remains once the study period of the discipline is over. However, the methodology of the cases presented in this text already considers the learner as an "ideal" basket full of knowledge ready to be "activated". The teacher’s task is to endeavor to, through the development of the case, reach out and interpret the issues in such a way that the knowledge, studied also in textbooks, becomes expertise, and will remain as the student’s overall cultural experience The proposed case methods identify a methodological process useful for the analysis of different business realities. The study and analysis of the cases necessitates "team work" in cooperation with other peers (peer education).
