What is a "case study"?

A case study is a detailed examination of a particular person, group, event, or situation, typically used to explore a complex issue or phenomenon. It involves collecting and analyzing information to understand the causes, effects, and key factors involved. Case studies are often used in academic, business, and professional settings to provide real-world examples that illustrate theoretical concepts. They can be based on qualitative or quantitative data and may include interviews, observations, and other research methods. The goal of a case study is to gain insights and provide solutions or recommendations based on the findings.

What is a "treatise"?

A treatise is a formal and detailed written work that explores a specific subject or topic in depth. It is typically scholarly in nature and provides a thorough examination, analysis, and explanation of the subject matter. A treatise is often structured logically, with clear arguments and evidence supporting the author's conclusions. It is usually longer than an article or essay and is intended to contribute to the academic or intellectual understanding of the subject. Treatises are commonly found in fields such as philosophy, law, science, or history.

jerga

What is "jargon"?

Jargon refers to specialized words or expressions used by a particular profession, group, or field that may be difficult for outsiders to understand. It serves to facilitate communication among those within the same field by using precise terminology, but it can create barriers for those not familiar with the language. For example, in medicine, terms like "hypertension" and "myocardial infarction" are common jargon that might confuse someone without a medical background. While jargon can enhance clarity among experts, it may also lead to misunderstandings if used inappropriately with a general audience.
