Using a Systems Approach To Develop Lifelong Learning Skills in Accounting for Business Combinations.

Duangploy, Orapin; Shelton, Margaret L.

Journal of Education for Business, v76 n2 p81-86 Nov-Dec 2000

In 2 studies, accounting students (n=14, 25) used a systems approach to complete practice problems; controls (n=20, 15) used textbook cases. In both studies, experimental groups developed higher-level thinking skills and retained what they learned. The systems approach appeared to help marginal achievers. (SK)
