Eureka Case · the case method, live

Every student decides. The whole class sees it.

Launch a case in class, collect each student's decision and justification, project how the class splits and score the arguments with a rubric. Or upload your own case and turn it into an interactive one.

How it works
01In class

One session, two votes and a debate grounded in data

You set the pace from the console: the class only moves on when you say so.

  1. You open the vote

    You pick the case when you create the session. Students open it in their browser, with their account, and read it at their own pace.

  2. Each student decides and justifies it

    They choose an option and explain why, with the minimum number of words you set. The consequence of their decision stays hidden until you reveal it.

  3. You reveal how the class splits

    The projector shows the distribution without names. Your console shows who chose what and what they wrote.

  4. Debate and a second vote

    After the discussion the class votes again. You see how many changed their mind and where they went.

  5. You score and close

    The rubric scores each justification. You correct whatever you want and send the grades to the gradebook.

03For the instructor

Everything happening in the room, on one screen

A console to run the session and a clean view to project.

Session console

You open, reveal and close each vote, and see live who has already sent their decision.

Projector view

Percentages and anonymous quotes, never names. The distribution only appears when you press Show.

Who changed their mind

Compare each student's first and second vote to open the debate where the class moved most.

Everything exportable

Download every decision and every justification from both votes as CSV.

04Assessment

The argument is scored, not the option

A case has no single right answer. The default rubric scores how each student argues, out of four points per criterion.

Clear position15%

Says which option it chooses and why, from the first sentence.

Use of the case data30%

Grounded in concrete figures and facts from the case, not generalities.

Risks and trade-offs25%

Acknowledges what its option gives up and how it would mitigate the risks.

Alternatives ruled out15%

Explains why it rules out at least one other option.

Stakeholders and execution15%

Considers who the decision affects and what it would take to carry it out.

Copy it and adapt it, or build your own.

Analyse arguments

In about half a minute it groups each option's justifications into their main arguments, with quotes from your students, and points out what almost nobody mentioned.

Every quote is checked against what a student of that option wrote. If it does not appear word for word, it is dropped.

You have the last word: you review and correct any score before it goes into the grades.

05Your cases

Upload your case and turn it into an interactive one

You start from your own case study. The platform proposes how to turn it into a decision for the class; you choose and edit.

  1. Upload the document

    PDF, Word or plain text, up to 10 MB.

  2. Choose objectives and dilemma

    You get proposals for learning objectives and for the decision the case can turn on.

  3. Get a draft

    Sections, key figures, options with their consequences, a calculator if the case calls for one, and illustrations.

  4. Edit it block by block

    Change the text, the data or the formulas in a visual editor, without touching code.

  5. Publish it

    Just for you, or for the instructors of your institution.

Editor blocks Text Key figures Table Chart Calculator Quote Highlight Image Decision Reflection

Every draft is validated before it is saved, and nothing is published until you publish it.
