Learning and Teaching Activities Classes

Classes for ACCG1001 in Session 3 2021 consist of an online lecture and an online zoom tutorial. Attendance at both is required to achieve successful student outcomes.

The lectures will be uploaded on iLearn at the end of each session, for students to further reflect on content . Each session's lecture will provide an explanation of that session's learning concepts as well as practical explanations and examples to supplement the concept materials. Each session you are expected to read both the relevant textbook chapter(s) listed in the unit schedule and any supplementary materials specified on iLearn in addition to watching the pre-recorded lecture. Lecture slides, in pdf format, will be available on the ACCG1001 iLearn web page on a session basis.

The tutorial classes will be for a duration of 1.5 hours and commence in Session 2. Students will enrol in an online zoom tutorial. The online zoom tutorials will involve the tutor and the students working through pre-set tutorial questions as well as in-class tutorial activities. Students must register for a tutorial and attend their registered tutorial. Students are advised that any changes to tutorial classes must be made online through eStudent.

The purpose of tutorials (from Session 2 to 13) is to provide an interactive learning environment in which to apply and practice the content covered in lectures. You are expected to attend the lectures and attempt tutorial homework questions before attending your registered tutorial class. The suggested solutions to tutorial homework questions will be made available on the ACCG1001 iLearn web page at the end of each session.
