However, it is difficult to measure these differences in an actual work environment. In this study, that problem is resolved by using a manga case, in which business scenarios are illustrated in a distinctive Japanese comic b...

... Its educational effects, however, differ from those of the standard case method. The manga case method exhibits the following two characteristic educational effects [9] [10]. Firstly, manga enables learners to draw upon diverse perspectives and then, through group discussion, enables them to learn the viewpoints of others and discover new perspectives. ...
This article aims to compare the educational effect of the Manga Case Method in offline and online environments. The Manga Case Method is an educational tool described by Manga. In this study, we used a manga case designed to improve learners' literacy when using social media in a company. We conducted experiments of the Manga Case Method in both offline and online environments. The results show that leaners' viewpoints become more diverse in an online environment and that leaners' feelings of immersion are increased in an offline environment.
... As a new type of case method, the visual case method, which visualizes different cases, has started to earn wide attention (3)(4)(5)(6)(7) (Figure 1). ...

We discuss how a system to support the facilitation efforts of inexperienced case leaders can be brought close to reality. We begin by considering methods to support facilitation efforts directed at novices. For this purpose, we conduct two tests. Using the test results, we propose that as one capability of a support system, the system should include some mechanism for recommending participants found by pretesting to already have a high level of knowledge, and that such recommended participants be given particular encouragement by the facilitator to externalize their discoveries. Also, the system should include some mechanism for recommending how to split up group members based on pretest results. By this mechanism, we can provide each group with a good balance of participant skill levels, including participants with a high skill level, and such an arrangement should encourage the groups in learning occurrence by letting them discover a new viewpoint.
... We also analyzed and compared the "focus points" of test participants before and after the study sessions. We measured the "focus points" of the test participants by asking them "which panel you had focused on, and why," from the MCM teaching materials (Hotta, Koshiyama, Yamada, Yoshikawa and Terano, 2010;Takahashi, Takahashi, Yoshikawa and Terano, 2015). We changed the test participants and experiment conditions, as well as conducted the experiment twice to investigate the five factors in our experiment. ...
We have developed a new concept representation method named Manga Card Sort to achieve learning process model in Manga Case Method. We have experimented to confirm the effectiveness of Manga Card Sort with Manga Cases dealing with business and with two types of subjects who have different degrees of achievement in business. The result shows that Manga Card Sort makes learners examine their own concepts and modify them (learning process I). This result is not depenent on degree of achievement. It also shows that Manga Card Sort makes learners find contrarieties and improvements in others’ concepts and point them out (learning process II), but only if learners’ degree of achievement is low, or the number of discussion group members is two. We couldn’t confirm the effectiveness to achieve learning process II when learners’ degree of achievement is high or the number of discussion group members is over three.
