Based on our own experiences in the classroom, at Society for Case Research meetings, and our working with this journal, we put forth that some of us really began to learn what a case was by attending the Society for Case Research (SCR) conferences and workshops, writing and publishing cases in SCR journals, and assigning cases to be used in our classes.

Moreover, the process of writing and publishing cases has increased our understanding of their value in the classroom. Thus, for this issue, our “From the Editors” article focuses on cases in the classroom.
