Accounting Capstone Course Design: Using the Internet to Modernize a Graduate Accounting Capstone Course
Bloom, Diane S.; Ehoff, Clemense, Jr.
American Journal of Business Education, v5 n1 p67-74 2012
This second paper describes how the Internet was used to modernize a graduate accounting capstone course to enhance student interest and learning, and is an extension of an earlier paper that examined a similar approach with an undergraduate accounting capstone course. Course content was developed from contemporary issues and cases obtained from the Internet. Benefits, drawbacks, and feedback from students who completed the updated course are presented as a basis for future study. The concepts and techniques presented in this analysis can easily be applied to capstone courses in other disciplines.
