Written Assignment Best Practices Guide
Formal writing requires sustained focus on content and close attention to detail. For these reasons, written assignments can be an effective assessment tool in graduate courses when they are thoughtfully and purposefully designed.

Regardless of the source and format, case studies provide students an opportunity to practice solving problems that they might encounter in the future.
