Methodology

 

Facts - Problems - Solutions

Family Enrichment courses are built on the case-study method, a system used in business and law school to bring real life fact patterns into the classroom.


Cases are drawn from rich, complex family situations that reveal the significance of productive relationships among family members: husband and wife, parents and children, siblings with one another, immediate family with extended family and friends.


The case study method teaches participants to

  • Draw out facts

  • Discern problems arising from the facts

  • Analyze possible solutions

​

While the cases are instructive, it is the wisdom brought to bear on them by the participating couples which is the genius of the case study method. Guided in the general session by a professional moderator, who is also a married parent, you and your spouse will learn to apply the method to issues at home, at work, anywhere. Yet not as a cold or academic way to dissect a problem, but as a means of cooperating and advancing what is important, in your marriage, with your children, with others.


Each Family Enrichment course is designed to impart this practical ability for a lifetime. The more you use the case study method, the more it will benefit you, your children, and the other couples in the course.
