Educational case study: investigative journalism and analysis

This small educational organization of 5 employees develops innovative pedagogical methods for higher education. Faced with challenges of student engagement and understanding complex historical contexts, the team seeks immersive approaches.

The organization focuses on simulation and role-playing to transform passive learning into active experience. This approach allows students to take ownership of content by embodying concrete professional roles, thus developing their analysis and synthesis skills.

How can students understand the complex social mechanisms of a bygone era? Traditional teaching struggles to generate the engagement necessary for in-depth analysis of class relations and social dynamics.

The challenge is to transform a subject perceived as abstract into concrete investigation. Students must develop their critical thinking while mastering the codes of investigative journalism and comparative analysis.

This business simulation simultaneously develops several essential skills: critical analysis, journalistic writing, and understanding of societal issues. Students learn to cross-reference sources, identify biases, and build solid arguments.

The investigation approach allows understanding of how social structures influence individual destinies. This method prepares future professionals to analyze complex situations while considering multiple influencing factors.

This management simulation is designed for bachelor-level students in humanities, journalism, or literature fields. It is particularly suitable for groups of 15 to 25 participants looking to develop their analysis and writing skills.

Educators will find a ready-to-use tool to energize their courses and assess their students' ability to conduct structured reflection on complex societal issues.
