Learning and Teaching Activities

Lectures

A recording of the live lecture will be uploaded on iLearn after the class. Each lecture will provide an explanation of the learning concepts as well as practical explanations and examples to supplement the concept materials. 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 live or recorded lecture. Lecture slides, in pdf format, will be available on the ACCG1000 iLearn web page.

Tutorials

The tutorial classes will be for a duration of 1 hour and commence in Week 2.  The tutorials will involve the tutors and the students working through pre-set tutorial questions as well as in-class tutorial activities. The weekly tutorials are based upon the previous week's lecture topic. Attendance will be taken at tutorials and student participation is strongly encouraged. Students must register for a tutorial and attend the same tutorial each week. Students are advised that any changes to tutorial classes must be made online through eStudent.

The purpose of tutorials (from Week 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 listen to the weekly lectures and attempt the weekly tutorial homework questions before attending your registered tutorial class. The suggested solutions to tutorial homework questions will be made available on the ACCG1000 iLearn web page at the end of each week.

Unit Schedule

Please note that an intensive teaching mode is adopted in Session 3. Instead of having only one lecture each week throughout 13 weeks in a normal session, we will have THREE lectures each week over five weeks in Session 3. For instance, lectures in weeks 1, 2, and 3 in a normal session will be delivered on the 6th, 7th, and 9th of December 2022 in Session 3. 

* Weekly readings refer to chapters in the prescribed textbook unless otherwise indicated.
