Perceptions of Faculty and Students towards Case Teaching in Czechoslovakia

Abstract

The use of interactive, case method and other experiential teaching has a very recent history in the Czech and Slovak educational systems. Before the “Velvet revolution”, courses were typically taught using non‐interactive lecturing. Along with the recent introduction of the free market economy has come a real need for business administration courses. The Czechoslovak Management Center has attempted to introduce and foster interactive techniques through direct training and through pairing western and Czech/Slovak Faculty in the classroom. Experiences during the first 18 months revealed market resistance to interactive methods among some local faculty and students. Reviews issues which impinge on receptivity to interactive teaching on the part of Czech and Slovak Faculty and students. Identifies lessons learned and makes recommendations.
