Explanation
★Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect, so the answer is Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
★An exploratory case study is done before the main investigation.
★It helps identify the questions and choose the measurements to use, so statement I is correct.
★A cumulative case study gathers findings from several studies done at different times.
★It aggregates past cases to allow broader generalisation.
★Making the unfamiliar familiar with a common language describes a descriptive case study, not a cumulative one, so statement II is incorrect.
★Therefore statement I is correct while statement II is incorrect.
