SMART INTERACTIVE TRAINING: COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING COURSES IN ACCOUNTING & AUDITING (1995-2005)

The SMART training project is a compendium of complementary interactive computer-based training courses in accounting and auditing. The SMART self-paced tutorial software enhances learning by engaging learners’ interaction with the subject matter, rather than presenting an electronic version of a textbook. SMART concentrates on concepts that lend themselves to computer-based interactive learning, and deploys instructional strategies appropriate to the intended students. Each concept is illustrated with simple, concrete examples followed by a practice exercise that provides immediate feedback to reinforce and solidify students’ understanding. The software tracks each student’s progress, monitoring the modules and sections that have been completed and maintaining a record of the student’s performance for each section quiz. Built-in tools on the icon toolbar such as an on-line calculator, Excel spreadsheet, and accounting glossary make SMART a convenient, all-in-one learning tool. To date EWMI has developed four courses as part of the SMART training program: (i) Basic Accounting Principles; (ii) Principles of Audit; (iii) Tax Audit; and (iv) Cost Accounting.
