For Principles of Accounting courses that use a Financial/Managerial split

 

The Demo Docs System of instruction replicates the classroom experience by providing more “I get it” moments outside of class.

We’ve talked to tons of POA instructors and our editors have even taken the accounting course (numerous times!) to figure out the following issue in this course that is consistent:  Students understand (or “get it”) right after you do a problem in class, but as soon as they leave class, with each passing hour, their ability to do the problems again and complete their homework diminishes to the point of them either having to come to office hours to get help, or they just quit and get behind in the course.  On top of this, you can end up getting behind in the course as well, in order to keep everyone on track.  The Demo Docs system helps to recreate the “I get it” moments outside of class–keeping both you and the students on track.




Do you agree that your students seem to “get it” when they are in class while YOU are delivering lecture…but have trouble achieving that “I get it” state again after class?  How do you help your students recall your lectures when they are outside of class and you are not with them?

 In-Chapter Demo Docs
are entire problems worked in a step-by-step fashion that wrap up every chapter in Accounting 7e and sit right before the extensive end-of-chapter material to help students recreate those “I get it” moments that before only you could provide. 

  • The Demo Docs are purposely written with a very conversational tone to give students the feel of having you, their instructor, over their shoulder helping them complete the exercise.
  • pg. 49-57

In-Study Guide Demo Docs and Flash Demo Docs on CD are also available. These additional demo docs will assist in furthering students’ understanding out of class.  The Flash Demo Docs on CD that come with the Study Guide will meet the needs of differing learning styles, and solidify the out of class “I get it” experience.
  • The Flash Demo Docs are an exceptional way to simulate a live tutor assisting with homework completion.
  • See the Flash Demo Docs and pages of the Study Guide

MyAccountingLab- My Accounting Lab is about helping students at their teachable moment, whether that is 1 PM or 1 AM, because whenever you are not there, My Accounting Lab can be.  It is packed with algorithmic problems and the exact same end-of-chapter material that you’re used to assigning for homework. It includes a Demo Doc for each of the end-of-chapter exercises and problems that students can refer to as they work through the question.
  • MyAccountingLab is exceptional technology that will not only help the students have more “I get it” moments, but it will also help you, the instructor, save time with auto-grading.

OTHER POINTS OF DISTINCTION


Do you find that students get overwhelmed with the amount of boxed features and colorful sidebars in their current text?  Do you think they get confused about what material is most important?  How do you currently deal with this in your course?

Clutter-Free – The text is built on the premise of Less is More. Extraneous boxes and features, non-essential bells and whistles…are all gone. Too much excess crowds out what really matters—the concepts, the problems, the learning objectives. Instructors -- you’ve asked for fewer “features” in favor of more exercises with better cross referencing, and Horngren/Harrison 7e is delivering on that wish.
  • Pgs. 30-35

Do you make use of publisher resources that go with your current text?  Do you ever get frustrated by the lack of consistency between these resources?  Do you have any strategies for dealing with that?

Consistency –
The entire package does matter. Consistency in form, function, and language from one medium to another; test bank to study guide to MyAccountingLab. So when students ask “Where do the numbers come from?” they can go to our text OR go online and know what to do. If it’s worded one way in the text, you can count on it being worded the same way in the supplements.


Do you find it time consuming to create new problems to go through in class that fit with the problems in your text?  Are you looking for exciting ways to keep your students’ attention?  How are you keeping your course fresh now?

Flash INSTRUCTOR Demo Docs—The very same demo docs that your students will use to stay on top of the material and complete their homework are provided for you on CD for use in lecture.  In theory, you will not need to prepare your own walk-through problems.  You can simply use these to help students “get it” in your lecture.
