The purpose of a case study is to learn as much as possible about an individual
or group so that the information can be generalized to many others.

Case study can have both strengths and weaknesses. Researchers must consider these pros and cons before deciding if this type of study is appropriate for their needs.
One of the greatest advantages of a case study is that it allows researchers to investigate things that are often difficult to impossible to replicate. The insights gained from such research can help the researchers develop additional ideas and study questions that might be explored in future.
