Case Analysis Effectiveness

The benefits of case analysis include topic research beyond the material offered in class.  While researching the topic of the case analysis, I exposed myself to a plethora of scholarly articles that expanded my knowledge about the subject, its challenges, and an updated insight.

Unfortunately, my current career, an airline captain, does not involve research and academic writing.  In the future, I expect to undertake safety roles within the airline where case analysis studies will be a valuable tool.  Another future venture will be continuous education towards a PhD where case analysis will be a corner stone in such a demanding academic endeavor. 

The case analysis proposal came early by the second week of the course.  The material offered in the course is rich and tackles subjects that are not intuitively related to the realm of UAS.  Hence, the student cannot possibly foresee how the subject will develop to contain the prospective learning outcomes.  The required paper is lengthy and a shorter paper can produce the same learning outcome.


Writing an abstract about a topic that is underdevelopment was challenging. The peer reviews on the rough draft contributed greatly to the structure and the content of the paper.
