COURSE STRUCTURE AND REQUIREMENTS
This 16-week course is offered entirely online and can be accessed asynchronously, meaning you can study
at your own pace and schedule without real-time interactions. The performance expectations for this
asynchronous format are on par with traditional, in-person courses. However, this mode of learning requires
a higher level of self-motivation, self-discipline, and technical proficiency from students. Given the nature of
asynchronous online learning, it's vital for students to actively use all the resources provided by the course to
guarantee their academic success. This approach ensures that, despite the lack of physical classroom settings,
the educational outcomes remain rigorous and rewarding.
Students are expected to:
 Read the syllabus and familiarize themselves with all relevant University policies;
 Review and adhere to the course calendar;
 Visit the Western Online regularly; and
 Submit assignments on time.
Course Structure
All lecture notes and related course materials can be found on Western Online. Assignments should be
completed in Connect.
For asynchronous students, I strongly encourage you to…
1. read through a section of lecture notes (ideally, you will read the textbook as well)…
2. complete the Smartbook (SB) assignments…
3. work out exercises and multiple choice questions in each Lecture Note in the “Content” of Western
Online...
4. check your answers against the solutions, and identify the reasons for any mistakes you made…
5. reread the sections of notes/textbook to solidify your understanding of the material…
6. complete the homework(HW) and data analytics(DA) assignments.
Required Assignments in Connect
Upon pairing your Connect account with Western Online, you can access Connect assignments for the course
through Western Online. Simply navigate to the 'Content' section to find the assignments for each chapter,
along with their respective due dates.
ACCT 341

PRACTICE IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO PASS THIS COURSE!!! To perform well in this course,
it is essential to allocate significant and regular time for reading, studying, and completing assignments.
Except for the Resume and Ethic Case, assignments must be completed in Connect by the specified due date
and time. The deadlines can be found in the 'Tentative Course Schedule' at the end of this syllabus. Late
homework assignments will NOT be accepted.
At the time this syllabus was prepared, there are nine required sets of Smartbook, data analytics, and
homework assignments in Connect. Please note that I reserve the right to request additional assignments and
to modify the number of exams and homework as I see fit. If necessary, any changes will be communicated
to all students via email or Western Online announcement.
1. Assignments:
At the time this syllabus was prepared, there were 9 sets of required assignments in Connect.
Required Assignments include pre-class Smartbook reading (SB), homework (HW), and Data
Analytics exercises (DA). The assignments must be completed in Connect and submitted by the
due date/time. Assignment submitted after the deadline will NOT be graded. You can find the
assignment deadlines in the 'Tentative Course Schedule' section at the end of this document.
Please note that there will be NO make-up assignments.
Smartbook (SB)
Each SB assignment is worth 5 points. Smartbook is a digital textbook available through the
Connect. It serves as an adaptive learning resource to facilitate more efficient learning. Smartbook
uses data-driven technology to identify areas where a student might need more practice or additional
resources, and then tailors the content to address those needs. It tracks a student's progress and
provide feedback and recommendations to help improve performance.
I strongly recommend that students complete the Smartbook assignments before starting their
homework. As a supplement to your learning, I encourage you to watch the lecture videos to help
enhance your understanding of the course material. These short videos are segmented into specific
topics, allowing you to select them based on your areas of interest.
Homework (HW)
Each HW assignment is worth 20 points. Homework is designed to help you gain a deeper
understanding of the concepts. You have three attempts for each homework assignment, although
only one attempt is required. Homework assignments are not timed. You are allowed to use books,
notes, and hints provided by Connect. Your best scores will be graded. Each HW assignment is
graded for accuracy in Connect.
It’s recommended that you begin working on assignments well before the due date to ensure you have
enough time to make second or third attempts if necessary. You must submit the assignments for
grading. I cannot and will not guarantee the technology to complete the assignments.
Data Analytics (DA)
Each DA assignment is worth 5 points. DA assignments are not timed and you have three attempts
for each assignment. You will be asked to use Tableau to do the assignments. You can get a free
student license for one year from Tableau. Go to www.tableau.com to create your account and get a
free one-year license. Don't worry if you're new to Tableau or feel uncertain about your skills.
There are Walkthrough videos available for each DA assignment.
2. Ethic Case
ACCT 341
Page 5 of 12
The written assignments include an analysis of an accounting-related ethical dilemma. The due date for
the ethics case can be found in the “Tentative Course Schedule” provided at the end of this syllabus.
Chapter 1 in the textbook (p.17) includes a 7-question framework for analyzing an ethical dilemma and
finding a solution (See Illustration 109). The ethics case assignment requires you to follow this
framework to analyze the ethical dilemma. The Ethics case assignment, as well as a sample case analysis,
is uploaded to the course Content in Western Online. The grading rubric will include following the
instructions and framework, quality and completeness, and writing quality. You are encouraged to consult
ChatGPT, but avoid relying exclusively on it. AI-generated content will be detected by Turnitin. A
primarily AI-generated assignment will NOT be graded. Please submit the assignment to the
“Assignments – Ethics” drop box on Western Online.
3. Examinations
Throughout the semester, your will take three examinations. Each exam will consist of 40 multiplechoice questions. Each of the first two exams is worth 100 points and each allows a duration of 80
minutes for completion. The third exam is worth 120 points and allows a duration of 120 minutes for
completion. The questions are crafted to assess your grasp of pertinent concepts and your proficiency in
addressing relevant accounting tasks. This includes transaction analysis, journalizing, posting, and the
preparation of financial reports, among others. Please refer to the provided course schedule in the syllabus
for specific examination dates.
These exams mirror the style and content of the CPA, CMA, and various other professional exams, hence
this course prepares you for such certifications. Notably, a significant portion of these materials won't be
revisited in subsequent accounting courses. Therefore, mastering the content now is imperative.
Important guidelines for the exams:
 The exams are closed-book; consulting books or notes is not permitted.
 You're accountable for the content in the textbook and any supplementary material introduced in
class.
 Each exam is an individual endeavor; collaboration or assistance from others is prohibited.
 Utilizing notes, books, websites, apps, or other resources during exams is strictly forbidden
unless explicitly stated.
 Any evidence of academic dishonesty will lead to a charge of violating WIU's Academic Integrity
Policies, resulting in dropping from the course with a grade of "F".
Prior to the examinations, please install the Respondus Lockdown Browser and ensure its functionality.
A functioning webcam or computer camera is mandatory for exam participation. Once prepared, you're
free to undertake the exams at any preferred time within the stipulated exam window. For details on exam
submission deadlines, consult the "Tentative Course Schedule" in the syllabus. It's crucial to note that
there are NO provisions for make-up exams.
4. Resume
The written assignments include preparing/updating a professional resume. The due date for the resume
can be found in the “Tentative Course Schedule” provided at the end of this syllabus. The mechanics of
writing a professional resume are not within the scope of this course. However, resume writing tips and
a sample resume are uploaded to the course Content in Western Online. The resume grade rubric will
determine how well you followed the guidelines (tips) and your attention to detail (NO TYPOS). You
are required to visit the career center before submission. You can schedule an appointment at the
following website: http://www.wiu.edu/careers/. Due to limited capacity at the career center, please
schedule your appointment in the first week of the semester. Please submit the resume to the
“Assignments – Resume” drop box in Western Online.
ACCT 341

5. Student Group Events, Activities and Guest Speaker Presentation Participation
Active participation in student group presentations and events is highly encouraged and will be rewarded
in this course. By actively engaging in these activities, you will not only enhance your learning experience
and develop important teamwork and communication skills, but you will also have the opportunity to
connect with industry professionals and build a valuable network. Each participation will earn you 5
points, with a maximum of 15 points available throughout the semester. Embrace these opportunities,
share your ideas, collaborate with peers, and seize the chance to expand your network and gain insights
from industry experts. Your active involvement will be recognized and can have a lasting impact on your
academic and professional growth.
WIU's accounting student organizations, namely AESA, BAP, Finance Club, NABA, and SCMIA,
regularly organize engaging events with guest speakers who cover a wide range of topics pertinent to
aspiring accounting and business professionals. The presentation schedule can be accessed through the
AFED student group calendar, and all relevant details will be communicated via weekly accounting and
finance student news blasts. Additional events will be added to the “WOL-Content-Student Group
Activities and Events” as they come to my attention. I encourage you to check these resources regularly
to stay informed and take advantage of these valuable opportunities. I encourage you to attend
presentations in the first two months as there will be less opportunities towards the end of the semester.
6. Accounting Tutoring Services
The AFED program provides tutoring services to students. You can take advantage of the tutoring service
by using virtual tutoring on Google Hangout or in-person Tutor Lab. Tutor Lab Hours and Instructions
on using virtual tutoring are posted in Western Online. You can earn 1 point for each visit to the
accounting tutoring lab up to 5 points, based on the sign-in record.
Knack Tutoring
Students looking for additional assistance outside of the classroom are advised to consider working with
a peer tutor through Knack. WIU College of Business and Technology has partnered with Knack to
provide students with access to verified peer tutors who have previously aced this course. To view
available tutors, visit wiu.joinknack.com and sign in with your student account.
CHATGPT AND OTHER AI TOOLS
ChatGPT and other AI tools (collectively referred to as “ChatGPT”) can provide valuable insights, explanations,
and clarifications on a wide range of topics, including accounting. This policy outlines the recommended
guidelines for using them as supplementary resources in this course.
1. Use in homework and assignments:
You are encouraged to use ChatGPT to clarify concepts or get assistance with understanding course
material. However, ChatGPT should not be solely relied upon for completing assignments. Your original
thought and personal understanding are essential for the learning process.
Always ensure to cross-reference any information sourced from ChatGPT with the course materials and
textbooks. Keep in mind that ChatGPT’s knowledge base has a cutoff; therefore it may not always have
the latest updates on accounting practices or principles.
It is important that you apply your critical thinking and professional judgment in all assignments. Exercise
discretion and uphold the standards of academic integrity. Be aware that exclusive reliance on AIgenerated content will be promptly detected and such an assignment will NOT be graded.
2. Use in Examinations:
ChatGPT, or any other AI tool, is NOT permitted during examinations or closed-book quizzes. Using it in
ACCT 341
Page 7 of 12
such scenarios is considered cheating and will lead to a failing grade for this class.
Should you find inconsistencies or issues in ChatGPT's explanations related to course material, you are
encouraged to discuss them in class or during office hours. This provides an opportunity for collective learning
and clarification.
While ChatGPT does not store personal conversations, it's always good practice not to share personal, sensitive,
or confidential information while using online platforms.
GRADING
Grading Components

Final course grades will be rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, a grade
of 69.5 will be rounded to 70, but a grade of 69.49 will be rounded to 69.
Your grades will be determined by the total points you EARN throughout the semester. To achieve the grade
you desire, it's important to plan NOW. I am often asked how to improve grades after exams or at the end of
the semester, but the key to success lies in regularly READING the textbook, completing chapter assignments
(including smartbook, homework and data analytics exercises), and reviewing feedback. If you have any
questions, don't hesitate to ask. It's best to seek clarification as soon as possible rather than waiting until
exams or assignment due dates.
Exam and assignment grades will be regularly posted to the course's Western Online site. It's your
responsibility to periodically review your grade information and schedule a meeting with me to discuss any
specific grades or concerns about the overall course grade. I welcome all discussions regarding study and
learning strategies that can help you succeed in this course.
SHARING OF COURSE CONTENT
In order to enhance the classroom experience, faculty members may record lectures and make them accessible
to students who are enrolled in the course. These recordings may be created for pedagogical purposes, future
reference by students, or to accommodate the needs of students with documented disabilities. However, it is
important to note that these recordings are for personal use only and may NOT be distributed, sold, or posted
on social media platforms without obtaining written permission from the instructor.
UNIVERSITY POLICIES

Web address for student rights and responsibilities: http://www.wiu.edu/provost/students.php
Academic Integrity
Each student is expected to complete his/her own work. Acts of academic dishonesty such as copying,
plagiarism, taking or distributing exams or exam questions, inputting notes into calculators or other devices
in your possession during exams, using work completed by others (students, former students, or anyone else),
etc. will be severely penalized, including but not limited to a course grade of zero. Being unaware or not
understanding that an action is academically dishonest is not an adequate excuse. If you have questions about
some action being academically questionable, please consult me ahead of time. Please remember that you are
expected to do your own work individually at all times, unless otherwise specified. Even if acts of academic
dishonesty are discovered after the semester ends, there will still be charges and penalties.
Please note that WIU has a writing center that is available to help you with any -writing assignments. You
are encouraged to use this resource.
