1. Identify a teaching approach which can be used in accounting classes. Gives its
advantages and disadvantages.
1. Teacher-centered
This teaching method is also referred to as sage on the stage. In the teacher-centred
method, the teachers serve as an authority for their students. On the other hand,
students tend to receive their knowledge passively by listening to lectures and
teacher's directions. The end goal for this method of teaching is for students to get
good results through testing and assessment.
Advantages
Logical arrangement of educational content.
Development of cooperation.
Focus on the subject.
Disadvantages
Limited content.
Full dependency of students on teachers.
Summative assessment.

2. Student-centered
In this teaching method, both teachers and learners become a part of the process in
a more or less equal way. The teacher's main role is coaching and facilitating
student learning, as well as making sure that students understand the material.
Additionally, they are supposed to evaluate students by assessing them formally
and informally. In a student-centred approach, the teacher acts as a guide on the
side. The learners get their grades through having their student portfolios evaluated
and participating in the class.
Advantages
Formative evaluation.
Students being actively involved in the learning process.
Emphasis on the meaningfulness of the knowledge being passed.
Disadvantages
Special teacher skills required.
It can be difficult for some students.
It focuses on students' personal demands.

3. High Tech
 This type of teaching methods involves using various means of technology, which
helps to organize the learning process.
Advantages
Better knowledge retention.
Active participation of students.
The practice of collaboration skills.
Disadvantages
Distraction from studies.
Could reduce student-to-student study groups.
Labour-intensive lesson planning.
High cost.

4. Low tech
This is a more traditional approach to learning, which includes face-to-face
interactions between the person who educates and their students.
Advantages
Better development of writing and spelling skills
Better focus on the topic of the study
Cheap
Disadvantages
Lack of tools

2. Cite at least 5 teaching strategies which can be used in accounting classes. Describe
each strategy and give its advantages and disadvantages.

a. Flipped Classrooms
This approach involves students watching pre-recorded lessons at home and
then completing in-class assignments.
b. Differentiated Instruction
This teaching method includes developing an understanding of every student's
most effective ways of learning and tailoring lesson plan to meet their specific
needs.
c. Personalized Learning
In this type of teaching methods, students follow lesson plans that are tailored
to their particular interests and abilities. This way, they can learn at their own
pace and take as much time as they need to succeed.
d. Game based Learning
 This approach is based on video games, which are usually loved by students.
This way, they can learn to reach a certain goal or solve a problem that a game
places in front of them.
e. Inquiry based learning
In this approach, a teacher serves as a supporter and guide that merely helps
the students while they actively participate in their project and ask questions
that interest them. Eventually, they demonstrate their research results to the
authority figure.
