Call for Cases
Submission Deadline: June 1, 2012. Authors will be notified about the status of their submission(s) by June 30, 2012.
Cases will go through a rigorous review process at the workshop. Authors that successfully implement the changes required by the reviewers should be successful in having their paper published in Annual Advances in Business Cases. Case submissions should include a Teaching Note that contains: an Overview of the case, Teaching Objectives, Discussion Questions (and their Answers), a General Discussion or an Additional Issues section if needed, any special teaching approaches (e.g., role playing), and an Epilogue if appropriate. Guidelines for writing cases and teaching notes are available on the SCR Web site at http://www.sfcr.org. Authors that attend the workshop will also be required to review several cases.
Following the conference, the case should be revised and resubmitted based on the feedback that the author receives at the conference. These resubmissions then undergo a double blind review (to attest that the authors made the required changes) for possible publication in the new SCR Journal of Case Studies.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions must be in Microsoft Word 2000 or later and are to be submitted electronically
using our SCR website.
Authors should separately submit a cover page and abstract if they would like an
abstract of their case to appear in the conference proceedings. The cover page is the
only page that the author's name should appear.
