Publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc. has announced an agreement with Casenet Media Incorporated, which will give Wiley customers the option to bundle a wide range of Wiley's Business texts with Casenet's video case product. This agreement provides Wiley with the opportunity to offer its customers a rich resource that complements its business products, and provides Casenet with Wiley's solid reputation and proven worldwide distribution network.
Founded by Dr. Conor Vibert and Dr. Michael Sheppard from Acadia University, Casenet.ca is a one of a kind, custom developed commercial software platform that has been a decade in the making. It contains over 200 decision-based multimedia teaching cases featuring business leaders from dozens of industries in countries around the world. These real-world cases are created within the context of an individual working for a specific company in a particular industry and deal with a recent issue this person has encountered. The task of the student is to provide analysis that addresses or resolves the issue.
Students will have a choice of customized case lists that match the content found in their Wiley texts. As the solutions are not immediately evident in the video clips, the students are required to think critically and do additional real world research to get their answers. Instructors who use the cases enjoy excellent support and have access to suggested solutions which they can use for class discussion.
Casenet studies will be available in bookstores alongside selected Wiley business texts starting in August 2015.
