Global integration and technology have increased the focus on the importance of education and training in the competitive business market. Skill development, technology usage, optimization and frugality of educational programs in this process are becoming increasingly important. Future projections and analysis of educational program delivery systems will lead to increased integration of technology and access over the internet, improvement of financial responsibility and unforeseen ethical implications related to course delivery and student interaction. The current state of spending years on college campuses often leaves people weighed down with big debts, a burden not only on their personal finances but on the overall economy as well as high dropout rates (Carr, 2012). Analysis of financial and technology issues facing education today are inter-rotational. Problems associated with finance and technology include student body volume growth, restrictions in geographical outreach, accessibility of the learning environment, financial frugality, implementation and maintaining technology as well as recruitment of a talented labor pool.

...preparation and completion of individual tax returns, corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships are expected to be finished in a timely manner. These are the primary means of income for this company, but I also prepare estate and trust returns when needed. Other duties and responsibilities assigned to me include the preparation and reconciliation of financial statements. I am responsible for creating and generating the general ledger, balance sheet, profit and loss, and payroll for all companies I work on. All of these financial statements have to be completed correctly and on time. I’m also in charge of the office filing system and reports. During the duration of my internship I had several special projects assigned to me. Since it is now tax season there is a lot of work to be done, it is our busiest time of the year. Instead of completing corporate returns like I normally do, I worked mostly on individual returns. There are several hundred individual returns to be completed so most of my efforts were directed and focused toward this. I would meet with several clients a day to review their financial situations and complete their tax return. Some of them were extremely easy to complete and I wouldn’t have to exert much effort. There were a few clients where I needed assistance from my employer to complete their returns. Sometimes individual returns can become very complicated. I remember working on...

...Dear Dr. Lin: I am writing to tell you more about myself, my course objectives, background and work experience. Through this course, I wish to gain the skills and knowledge needed to pass the Financial Accounting portion of my CPA exam while pursuing an accounting career. I hope that we can have a great learning experience together this quarter. In taking Financial Reporting III, I hope to continue to build on the principles and theories of accounting I have learned thus far. While learning these advanced topics on accounting for income taxes, accounting for pensions, other post-retirement benefits, and many other important topics I know that I am being prepared when I sit for the financial reporting section of the CPA exam. My desire is to be able to use the knowledge I learn from this course where I can later apply it during my future career. I finished my first two years at Harold Washington, one of the community colleges of Chicago. As the decision to choose my major and university drew closer after spring of last year, in the end I chose DePaul University for my bachelor’s degree for accounting. To my prior understanding and as I have come to know, DePaul is a great university for their business curriculum in the Undergraduate and Graduate programs. Currently, I am a senior and will become CPA eligible upon graduation spring 2016. In the past, I was the manager at the Chinatown Museum in Chinatown where I managed a team and the daily operations. I have many...

...IMPLEMENTING TECHNOLOGY INTO THE ENGLISH CLASSES. Is really technology the most important tool in the learning-teaching process? Technology has allowed important changes in the learning process, so that anyone anywhere can learn just about anything during anytime. However, there is a great controversy concerning how technology accentuates student learning. One advantage of using technology is to provide so many options as making learning interesting and also making learning more productive. In addition, students can learn and interact with other people around the world and they can find entertaining materials for helping them to learn in an easy way. Secondly, technology is used to enhance learning in ways that may not be possible through traditional methods such as printed matter (textbooks) and verbal explanation. However, one disadvantage is related to the issue of using computer network technology in language learning and teaching in terms of financial barriers, content considerations, technical features and pedagogical perspectives. So students should have computer and internet access. Therefore, they will meet with difficulties when technology is not always as reliable as it should be and internet access is not always available in the classroom. Using technology in class is another disadvantage when students do not follow the specific instructions by teachers. In instead of that they are more interesting in chatting or looking for social networking sites and it...

Individuals with alternatives need not accept consequences, rather they create opportunities for themselves. Career Management Guide Section 1 Paaggee 11 SECTION 1: CAREERS TODAY Part 1 - The Environment, Career Issues and Trends The Importance of Education and Experience In the current economic environment, education is becoming increasingly critical to career success. While employment rose for Canadians with university and college educations, 651,000 fewer jobs existed for those people without high school qualifications. Unemployment rates in the U.S. exceed 10% for those with less than a high school diploma and approximately 2.5% for college graduates.1 When professional designations (i.e., accounting, engineering) are taken into account, the data on employability and income is skewed in favour of the professional, relative to those who possess only a post secondary educational background. However, in order to maintain a competitive edge, individuals must continue to invest in their development throughout their careers. Specifically, with respect to the future for business and accounting positions, “growth due to the increasing number and complexity of business operations will be offset somewhat by corporate restructuring and downsizing of management, resulting in average growth for executive, administrative and managerial...

It has been interplay of so many factors – gender, IQ, study habits, age, year level, parent’s educational attainment, social status, number of siblings, birth order, etc. In fact, almost all of existing environmental and personal factors are a variable of academic performance. In this research study, focus is on the effect of study habits in the academic performance of students, specifically the second year BS Accountancy students.

Thus, in order for them to fulfill the requirement of the curriculum, accounting students needs to have a proper time management and study habits. Study habits, defined as the regular tendencies and practices that one depicts during...

...grounds in the military we approach learning in a lot of the same ways. As a group we brain storm and analyze every aspect of the problem to come up with the solution. Although some of us are easier to persuade to one idea to another, all of us require justification in order to allow it to pass the group. Alberto, Marvin, and Mike all use the no non sense approach to problems and class while Tracy tends to look at it more as a 3D more than one way to skin a cat type of out look. It seems that we feed off of one another in a group environment. When one of the team members doesn’t understand the others try to explain it in the easiest way possible. Through the discovery wheel and intelligences exercises we found that the team pretty much has the same learning style and curve. It isn’t hard for any of the members to get their input in or speak up to the other members if there is a difference of opinion. With the exercises so far we have had no problem coming together as a team. 2. What are the advantages of having diversity on a team? What challenges might the team face because of diversity? The advantage of having diversity in a team is having more than one opinion or out look on a subject or project. If everyone were exactly the same, we would be robots will no free will or options. Diversity such as nationality and social up bringing can also bring a lot to the table when it comes to learning. If an individual has a poor education...
