Since 2010, the authors have been on the faculty of a HBCU located in Georgia. The authors are
the only full-time faculty, thus are responsible for teaching all accounting courses. The failure
rate has average thirty-five (35%) percent. Failure is defined as a student receiving a grade of
“D”, “F” or “W” in an accounting course. This failure rate was unacceptable, thus a search begin
to explore ways of reducing this rate without compromising the academic integrity required to
prepare students to become an accountant. This study explores a new teaching model designed to
improve students’ technical competencies while increasing their critical thinking skills. What
adjustments to a classroom lesson plan and teaching strategy are useful to improve interpersonal
communication, creativity, reasoning and analytical abilities? Does improvements in
interpersonal communication, creativity, reasoning and analytical abilities require abandoning
the traditional teaching model? Critical thinking includes analyzing, conceptualizing, reasoning
and evaluating. Research finds that these skills can be developed in learners if teaching strategies
evolve beyond memorization (Reinstein,2008). Accounting graduates are expected to possess a
healthy dose of critical thinking skills. This study explores a teaching model reflective of
cognitive thinking. Cognitive teaching increases the need to compare, contrast, group, and
memorize relevant accounting concepts. The literature argues that students have considerable
difficulty in solving accounting problems that are slightly different than those presented in the
classroom, even though the same concepts are being covered. The Pathways Commission has
called for improvements in accounting curriculum and teaching techniques (Bloom, 2013). The
quality of future accountants will be shaped by a need for improvement in critical thinking skills.
The purpose of this paper is to convey the authors’ result of using the ABCs of accounting
teaching model. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROBLEM The accounting profession requires more
creativity and innovative thinking in order to be competitive. Much of the literature argues that
teaching models that require students to memorize accounting rules and procedures fail to
cultivate critical thinking in problem solving. The Bedford Committee (1986) asserts that the
traditional accounting lectures fail to stimulate creativity and innovative thinking. Thus student
are not educational ready to enter the profession. The Pathway’s Commission finds that
accounting programs are overly invested in outmoded models. Bloom (2013) finds that students
increasingly exhibit difficulty solving complex accounting problems. The goal of teaching
should always embrace a pedagogy designed to discover a higher order of thinking. Higher order
critical thinking can be achieved if the teaching approach gets it right. Such is the pursuit of this
study. The five step process for developing higher level critical thinking skills.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This course will involve lecture and lab. Students are expected to read the required text
assignments prior to class and participate in multimedia presentations and
demonstrations. Additionally, the professor may utilize additional instructional delivery
methods, including oral reports, special projects, and other related methods.
On-Campus Attendance: Attendance will be taken hourly at the beginning of each
hour. All time missed from class including full session absences, tardiness, and
leaving early will be recorded and included in the final attendance for each class.
Any student absent or anticipated being absent for three (3) consecutive school
days or more needs to contact the school director to see if the absences may be
excused. Excused absences include a medical emergency, death of an
immediate family member, jury duty, or military duty. The school director will
approve excused absences on a case by case basis once documentation is
received from the student. Four (4) absences (16 hours) in a 64-hour class may
result in a failing grade and possible withdrawal from the College. Students who
arrive late or leave early will have the time recorded. Students who are not in
attendance for 70% or more of the class may receive a failing grade and possible
withdrawal from the College. Students who are absent from all classes for eight
(8) consecutive days in which classes are scheduled, and who do not notify the
College, may be withdrawn from the College for non-attendance. Appeals related
to the attendance policy must be in writing and addressed to the Acceptance
Committee. Failed courses must be repeated at the expense of the student.
Students withdrawn from the College may apply for re-admission, which must be
reviewed and receive the recommendation of the Acceptance Committee.
Online Attendance: Online courses are offered during the same four (4) week
timeframe as on-ground courses. The online courses are available 24/7.
Attendance is posted daily, Monday through Sunday (11:59 pm). Students must
participate online via the Blackboard platform and complete assignments in order
for attendance to be posted. The same on-ground rules for absences apply for
courses taken online except for the rule regarding arriving late and leaving early.
Four (4) absences (16 hours) in a 64-hour class may result in a failing grade and
possible dismissal from the College. Students who are not in attendance for at
least 70% or more of the class may receive a failing grade and possible dismissal
from the College. Students who are absent from all classes for eight (8)
consecutive days in which classes are scheduled, and who do not notify the

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA/ METHOD OF EVALUATING STUDENTS:
Grades and grade points represent the final measure of a student’s performance in a
course. The following grades are used by Florida Technical College:
Percentage Hours per
Grades Equivalent Qtr Credit Grade Points
A – Excellent 90-100 1 4
B – Above Average 80-89 1 3
C – Satisfactory 70-79 1 2
D – Passing 60-69 1 1
F – Failing Below 60 1 0
I – Incomplete N/A 1 0
W – Withdraw N/A 1 0

An “I” is assigned when coursework is not completed in the appropriate times due to
circumstances beyond the student’s control. The student has 14 calendar days into the
next scheduled course to complete the requirements.

6. SYLLABUS
FLORIDA TECHNICAL COLLEGE
Any “I” not removed by the student will be automatically converted to the otherwise
earned grade, typically an “F”.
A grade of “W” is assigned as a grade for those students who request in writing to
withdraw from a course prior to completing the mid-term. A grade of “W” is not
calculated into the GPA, but will be considered as credits attempted if the student has
incurred a financial obligation thus affecting the successful completion percentage.
Degree students who withdraw during the drop-add period and enroll in another course
will receive no grade in the original course.
ACADEMIC CONDUCT:
At Florida Technical College, students are expected to exhibit the highest standards of
academic propriety. Academic misconduct prejudicial to the academic integrity of the
student, fellow classmates, and/or school will lead to disciplinary action that may include
suspension or dismissal. Academic misconduct may include, but is not limited to, the
following:
Cheating: Attempting to receive assistance from persons, papers or other
material without the permission of the instructor; or acquisition of an examination
and/or quiz prior to the examination date.
Plagiarism: Plagiarism is defined as taking and using as one’s own the ideas
and writings of another without giving appropriate credit through proper
documentation.
Providing assistance to a student attempting to cheat or plagiarize is also
considered academically dishonest.
The consequences of any such conduct are dependent on the seriousness of the
offense that occurred; previous violations of policies and regulations by the student, and
the attitude and cooperation of the student as determined by the instructor and/or
Program Chairs. Disciplinary action for verifiable academic dishonesty is in the
immediate discretion of the instructor. The instructor and/or student may petition the
School Director for a grievance decision. The instructor and/or School Director may take
one or a combination of the following actions depending on the circumstances of the
case:
• The student will receive a zero for the individual effort.

results as the course grade, the student may be dismissed, or may not
meet graduation or financial aid requirements.

have the right to appeal decisions based on academic integrity to the
Executive Director.
