This study aims to investigatethe effectiveness of case-based curriculum. A case-based curriculum was developed and implemented in two different experimental groups with two different techniques as Case Based Learning (CBL) and Case Based Learning (CBL)2. In CBL1, the instructor first presented the content of the unit and then used the cases. In CBL2, the instructor directly started with the cases without presenting any content. Summative test was developed in order to specify students’ achievement through curriculum objectives. The data was analyzed by Covariance Analysis (ANCOVA). The research findings revealed that there was a statistically significant difference on students’ total achievement level as well as students’ learning levels on knowledge, comprehension, analysis, and evaluation between experimental and control groups in favor of both experimental groups. The quantitative results apparently showed that experimental groups performed better than control group but no significant difference was recorded between two experimental groups
