Case Study Method makes way for the newspaper headline method

Came across an interesting report in yesterday’s ET about a new method of teaching that is taking root in B-Schools in India. In addition to the usual Case Study Method that is used in B-Schools the world over, this new method is being used:

The sessions — consisting of all the participants, a couple of  professors and an industry expert — are interactive in nature. Participants are expected to browse through major headlines from some of the
