First EAA online education workshop

Challenges and Opportunities for On-Line Accounting Education

EAA Online Education Workshop (ZOOM) – 2 time options

Friday June 19, 2020 – 11.30-13.00 CEST (Brussels time)  FULL

Friday June 19, 2020 –  13.30-15.00 CEST (Brussels time)  FULL (see link below)

Agenda:

The COVID-19 crisis has created an uncertain teaching environment where on-line education has gained an unprecedented prominence in a very short period of time. It was not planned. It just happened. The idea of this workshop is to share our experience of teaching accounting on-line for more than 10 years and provide some guidance on how to adapt to this new scenario. The workshop will be divided in four modules as follows:

1. SETTING THE STAGE FOR ON-LINE TEACHING
2. PLANNING FOR AN ACCOUNTING COURSE IN AN UNCERTAIN ENVIRONMENT
3. ACCOUNTING CLASSES ON-LINE (I): EXAMPLES OF SYNCHRONOUS ACTIVITIES
4. ACCOUNTING CLASSES ON-LINE (II): EXAMPLES OF ASYNCHRONOUS ACTIVITIES

Each module will last for 10 mins and will be followed by some time for Q&A
