Abstract
This chapter introduces an opportunity to learn more about the benefits of using interactive patient cases in occupational therapy education. Why, how and when should you introduce interactive patient cases and how do you write a case and facilitate a case seminar? This chapter brings insight to these questions, as well as presents a historical background to the usage and an overview of what type of learning interactive cases can stimulate.
Hence, the characteristics of interactive patient cases encourages holistic learning and offers the learners the opportunity to get to know more about less than less about more (Gerring 2006).
