- Authors
Ellingson, Dee Ann; Weiss, Jane M.
- Abstract
The use of real-world ready skill activities in accounting curriculum bridges the gap between the learning of content and the integration or application to real-life problem-solving contexts. This paper describes a problem-based-learning activity that establishes an authentic learning environment where students master competencies in accounting, quantitative methods, and technology and provide an opportunity to practice the real-world ready skill of management decision making. Specifically, the case requires students to analyze data in Excel, apply the quantitative methods of learning curve and regression, and make management decisions with the results.
