Civil Rights Act 1964 Case Study Discussion You are to identify three key issues and be prepared to explain why you consider those to be the major issue in the case. No fluff, straight to the point. Include key facts in the intro.Read through the attached PDF and then look up the case study pdf. Basically, we are to summarize what the case set is, followed by addressing three key issues. Think of it from a decision making standpoint. Was communication an issue? If so, say why. Were emotions an issue, ignorance, etc.. Again, more decision making terminology. This is very short, maximum of two pages. So introduction, summary in other words, listing the three key issues, a paragraph for each of the three issues, and a conclusion, where we develop a proper course of action. No fluff, keep it to the point. Keep in mind, these are key issues DECISION MAKING terms that could impact the outcome of the case. For example, if the administration received jumbled orders and didn’t get a clear message, address that, talk about the miscommunication. Appendix B: Case Study Preparation
HOW TO PREPARE A CASE STUDY REPORT
Each case is designed to focus on a certain category of problems and issues and typically should be
analyzed with its associated discussion topics in mind (although the connection may not be very clear
in some instances). It is important to realize that there is no one best way to prepare a case but the
following approach may help you develop your own method:
1. Go through the case very quickly the first time, asking yourself the following questions:
a. “Why is this case significant?”
b. “What is the case really about?”
c. “What types of information am I being given to analyze?”
2. Reread the case very carefully, identifying key facts as you go. Identify the key players. Try to
put yourself in the position of these key players and develop a sense of involvement in their
problems and issues.
3. List the critical problems and issues. This is easier said than done. Often what initially appears
to be a problem is actually a symptom of an underlying problem. The key issues are often hard
to see at first but it is important for you to clearly identify the fundamental problem(s) and
issue(s). Reduce the list of issues and problems to the three most important. This will make the
case analysis much easier and drastically reduce the size of your problem and issue list. Then
review the case again, sorting out the relevant considerations for each problem or issue area.
Ask yourself, “What has been done right and/or wrong? What should or should not have been
done?” Develop a clear statement for each critical problem and issue and justify why these are
the most important ones the manager or organization has to face. Remember this is
organizational information systems class so don’t get side tracked into other areas.
4. Develop a set of realistic recommendations for addressing your critical issues. This must be
supported by the analysis of case. Justify these recommendations; demonstrate how they will
solve, mitigate or address the problem and issue areas you have identified; and consider how
your recommendations can be implemented.
5. Case analyses should be a maximum of 3 pages (see course syllabus) in length unless directed
otherwise. Your write-up may take whatever form you wish but it must be well organized,
clearly state and discuss the problem and issue areas you have identified, discuss and justify
your recommendation, and present a realistic approach for implementation. Make sure you
have done an analysis of the key issues presented in the case and make sure that you have
answered the questions. Rehashing the case and/or listing numerous minor details is not
acceptable, nor is restating the case author’s conclusions.
Remember that you need to focus on the organizational and issues in the case; in other words,
don’t turn your assignment into a computer systems technology analysis.
A format that seems to work very well for many students is:
Introduction
Brief statement of purpose, identification of key players, and listing of issues
Key Issue 1
Clear statement followed by justification of importance and discussion
Key Issue 2
Clear statement followed by justification of importance and discussion
Key Issue 3
Clear statement followed by justification of importance and discussion
Conclusions and Recommendations
Integrate the material you have presented for your critical issues. Develop a
clear and justifiable overall course of action for the key players to take.
Note -all written work must be done on a computer, be double spaced (unless specified otherwise), have 1 inch
margins, and use 12 point font. Written work will be graded on content (i.e., grammar, spelling, organization,
etc.). Late work is not accepted without prior authorization.
