You’ve got it! An in-depth study of a single student at one point for their benefit is called a case study.

Here’s a breakdown of the other options:

• Experiment: This involves manipulating variables to observe cause-and-effect relationships. It wouldn’t typically be used for a single student.
• Survey: This gathers information from a large group of people, not just one student.
• Observation: This involves watching or recording behavior without necessarily delving into the “why” behind it. A case study goes beyond observation to analyze factors influencing the student’s learning.
