The vision of the Case Files project is to be a catalyst for reform of the learning experience for students in engineering and information technology program throughout the nation. This vision is being realized through the creation of a national community of educators who are skilled and experienced in the delivery of case-based learning. The secondary objective is to develop a systematic process that will capture case "ideas," develop a forum for sharing case concepts with other faculty, and to publish and distribute these materials. "The Case Files" follows up the work currently being concluded by the South East Advanced Technological Education Consortium (SEATEC) that has developed model case studies for technological education and evaluated their effectiveness. SEATEC's work has revealed evidence that using cases improves learning and creates a learning centered environment for students. Interest in using the case method has grown among technological educators in the past 3-5 years. Currently, no resource exists for those educators who wish to use the case study method. Three major goals of the project are: improve knowledge and understanding of case studies among technological educators in Tennessee and across the nation; create an on-line clearinghouse for case "ideas" and cases developed by faculty; and disseminate case "ideas" and fully developed published cases to a national audience. Experienced faculty are mentoring those new to using cases. Partners in the project are Nashville State Technical Institute, the LITEE Center at Auburn University, and the Learning Technology Center at Vanderbilt University.

案例档案项目的愿景是成为全国工程和信息技术项目学生学习经验改革的催化剂。这一愿景正在通过建立一个全国教育工作者社区来实现，这些教育工作者在提供基于案例的学习方面具有技能和经验。第二个目标是开发一个系统的过程，将捕获的情况下“的想法，”开发一个论坛，与其他教师分享的情况下的概念，并出版和分发这些材料。“案例档案”是东南部先进技术教育联合会目前正在完成的工作的后续行动，该联合会为技术教育制定了示范案例研究，并评估了其有效性。SEATEC的工作揭示了证据，使用案例可以提高学习效果，并为学生创造一个以学习为中心的环境。在过去的3-5年里，技术教育工作者对使用案例教学法的兴趣越来越大。目前，对于那些希望使用案例研究方法的教育工作者来说，没有资源。该项目的三个主要目标是：提高田纳西州和全国各地的技术教育工作者对案例研究的认识和理解;为教师开发的案例“想法”和案例创建一个在线信息交换所;向全国观众传播案例“想法”和充分开发的出版案例。经验丰富的教师正在指导那些新的用例。该项目的合作伙伴包括纳什维尔州立技术研究所、奥本大学LITEE中心和范德比尔特大学学习技术中心。
