There is no collaborative component. Perhaps it would be helpful to students to go through the first case as a group and then review each group's work together as a class.

Quality of Explanation of the Subject Matter: Strong (2)
I wonder if it would be helpful in the description to add another sentence regarding what are these case studies and how they will be analyzed.
I appreciate the work you've done to help students learn more about the financial side of farming. I hope my evaluation is helpful.
