Methodology and Practical Tools for Enhancing an Accounting/Business Ethics Class
Kreissl, Laura Jean; Upshaw, Alice
Journal of Instructional Pedagogies, v9 Oct 2012
While many articles have argued the value and impact of ethics courses, few have discussed methodology and particularly the tools used in the implementation of accounting ethics classes. We address both of those items in this paper in hopes of helping other instructors in building or strengthening their courses. This paper describes the methodology and several practical tools used in the implementation of an MPA "Ethical Solutions in Professional Accounting" course, a class where student participation through discussion comprises nearly a fourth of the final grade. Some general comments by students regarding the course are also included.
