Accounting Made Easy -- CD ROM (Level 1), Canadian Edition, 1/e Training Innovations

Appropriate for brief financial accounting courses at community colleges, or as a supplement in a mainstream financial accounting program. This comprehensive self-paced computerized tutorial program can be packaged with Harrison/Horngren's Financial Accounting, 4/e, or with any other Prentice Hall financial accounting title, or can be sold as a stand-alone product. Students first take a pretest to see where they need the most help and then they can work through new material present ed in short learning segments. Case studies allow students to connect all the material learned. This tutorial comes in two 2 levels:  Level I covers accounting basics such as business organization, accounting information, financial statements, the accounting equation, general ledger, and account transactions.  Level II focuses on accounting procedures and covers the following areas: recording transactions, posting transactions, adjustments, and completing the accounting cycle. Pretests students, teaches them short sections, and then ties all the material together with comprehensive end-of-module cases. Easy-to-use instructions are embedded into the program. Self-paced software program allows students to learn accounting procedures at their own level and pace. A digital bookmark ensures that the learner's progress is tracked. Dialogue boxes refer students back to the pages of Harrison/Horngren when they have incorrect answers. Instant feedback -- both on-screen and vocal. Coverage -- From the accounting basics of sole proprietorships, partnerships and corporations, through the development of financial statements, and on to the closing of the account, this software will ground the learner in the various procedures and transaction methods necessary for accounting competency. Quizzes, reviews and drills are used throughout to develop essential accounting skills. Course Personality and Themes -- The learner can select the tone of feedback, and they can change the look-and-feel of the package instantly so that colour schemes and graphic images adjust to the learner's style. Automatic Adaptation -- The course expert system automatically adapts to different learning styles and to a learner's specific skill level. Fast learners can move through the material quickly, as the system charts a path of leaning that recognizes their superior skills. Slower learners take a different path of learning. They are given more opportunities for review. As a learner's skills improve, they can move into a fast-track path. Integrated Course Notes -- The learning package contains an integrated printing system. Learners can print relevant course notes to use as a reference away from the computer. I. ACCOUNTING BASICS. 1.
