SCANS or Core Curriculum Statement
The Secretary’s Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills
(SCANS) from the U.S. Department of Labor was asked to
examine the demands of the workplace and whether our students
are capable of meeting those demands. Specifically, the
Commission was directed to advise the Secretary on the level of
skills required to enter employment. In carrying out this charge,
the Commission was asked to do the following:




Define the skills needed for employment
Propose acceptable levels of proficiency
Suggest effective ways to assess proficiency, and
Develop a dissemination strategy for the nation’s schools,
businesses, and homes
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 4 of 25
SCANS research verifies that what we call workplace know-how
defines effective job performance today. This know-how has two
elements: competencies and a foundation. This report identifies
five competencies and a three-part foundation of skills and
personal qualities that lie at the heart of job performance. These
eight requirements are essential preparation for all students,
whether they go directly to work or plan further education. Thus,
the competencies and the foundation should be taught and
understood in an integrated fashion that reflects the workplace
contexts in which they are applied.
Workplace
Competencies
Resources: allocating time,
money, materials, space,
staff
Interpersonal Skills:
working on teams, teaching
others, serving customers,
leading, negotiating, and
working well with people
from culturally diverse
backgrounds
Information: acquiring and
evaluating data, organizing
and maintaining files,
interpreting and
communicating, and using
computers to process
information
Foundation Skills
Basic Skills: reading,
writing, arithmetic and
mathematics, speaking and
listening
Thinking Skills: thinking
creatively, making decisions,
solving problems, seeing
things in the mind’s eye,
knowing how to learn, and
reasoning
Personal Qualities:
individual responsibility, selfesteem, sociability, selfmanagement and integrity
Systems: understanding
social, organizational, and
technological systems,
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius

monitoring and correcting
performances, and designing
or improving systems
Technology: selecting
equipment and tools,
applying technology to
specific tasks, and
maintaining and
troubleshooting technologies
SCANS workplace competencies and foundation skills have been
integrated into Introduction to Accounting, and are exhibited in
the SCANS schedule.

Instructional Methods
ACCT 2302 is a required, elective, or prerequisite course
depending upon program or accounting courses. As an instructor,
I want my students to be successful. I feel that it is my
responsibility to provide you with knowledge concerning the field
of accounting, modeling good teaching strategies, and organizing
and monitoring the class experience that allows you to connect
the information that you learn in this course to the real world of
accounting.
As a student wanting to learn about the field of accounting, it is
your responsibility to read the textbook, submit assignments on
the due dates, study for the exams, participate in classroom
activities, attend class, and enjoy yourself while experiencing the
real world of accounting.
As I believe that engaging the students in the learning is essential
for teaching to be effective, you will spend the majority of class
time involved in collaborative activities. You will be involved in
discussions with your classmates and your instructor. As you will
want to contribute to these discussions, you will need to come to
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 11 of 25
class prepared to discuss, analyze and evaluate information from
your text.

learning. To better understand a topic, you will be given
assignments on key information that you will need to remember
for your success in your career as an accountant. Students will
be required to successfully complete the assigned homework and
project and submit in class to the instructor.
Assignments should be named as CRN-Lastname,FirstnameAssignmentName.filetype

Academic Honesty
A student who is academically dishonest is, by definition, not
showing that the coursework has been learned, and that student
is claiming an advantage not available to other students. The
instructor is responsible for measuring each student's individual
achievements and also for ensuring that all students compete on
a level playing field. Thus, in our system, the instructor has
teaching, grading, and enforcement roles. You are expected to be
familiar with the University's Policy on Academic Honesty, found
in the catalog. What that means is: If you are charged with an
offense, pleading ignorance of the rules will not help you.
Students are responsible for conducting themselves with honor
and integrity in fulfilling course requirements. Penalties and/or
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 14 of 25
disciplinary proceedings may be initiated by College System
officials against a student accused of scholastic dishonesty.
“Scholastic dishonesty”: includes, but is not limited to, cheating
on a test, plagiarism, and collusion.
Cheating on a test includes:
 Copying from another students’ test paper;
 Using materials not authorized by the person giving the
test;
 Collaborating with another student during a test without
authorization;
 Knowingly using, buying, selling, stealing, transporting, or
soliciting in whole or part the contents of a test that has not
been administered;
 Bribing another person to obtain a test that is to be
administered.
Plagiarism means the appropriation of another’s work and the
unacknowledged incorporation of that work in one’s own written
work offered for credit.
Collusion mean the unauthorized collaboration with another
person in preparing written work offered for credit. Possible
punishments for academic dishonesty may include a grade of 0 or
F in the particular assignment, failure in the course, and/or
recommendation for probation or dismissal from the College
System. (See the Student Handbook)
Student attendance
It is important that you come to class! Attending class regularly is
the best way to succeed in this class. Research has shown that
the single most important factor in student success is attendance.
Simply put, going to class greatly increases your ability to
succeed. You are expected to attend all lecture and labs regularly.
You are responsible for materials covered during your absences.
Class attendance is checked daily. Although it is your
responsibility to drop a course for nonattendance, the instructor
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 15 of 25
has the authority to drop you for excessive absences.
If you are not attending class, you are not learning the
information. As the information that is discussed in class is
important for your career, students may be dropped from a
course after accumulating absences in excess of 12.5% hours of
instruction. The six hours of class time would include any total
classes missed or for excessive tardiness or leaving class early.
You may decide NOT to come to class for whatever reason. As an
adult making the decision not to attend, you do not have to notify
the instructor prior to missing a class. However, if this happens
too many times, you may suddenly find that you have “lost” the
class.
Poor attendance records tend to correlate with poor grades. If
you miss any class, including the first week, you are responsible
for all material missed. It is a good idea to find a friend or a
buddy in class who would be willing to share class notes or
discussion or be able to hand in paper if you unavoidably miss a
class.
Class attendance equals class success.
Withdrawal Deadline
If you feel that you cannot complete this course, you will need to
withdraw from the course prior to the final date of withdrawal.
Before, you withdraw from your course; please take the time to
meet with the instructor to discuss why you feel it is necessary to
do so. The instructor may be able to provide you with suggestions
that would enable you to complete the course. Your success is
very important. Beginning in fall 2007, the Texas Legislature
passed a law limiting first time entering freshmen to no more
than SIX total course withdrawals throughout their educational
career in obtaining a certificate and/or degree.
To help students avoid having to drop/withdraw from any class,
HCC has instituted an Early Alert process by which your professor
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 16 of 25
may “alert” you and HCC counselors that you might fail a class
because of excessive absences and/or poor academic
performance. It is your responsibility to visit with your professor
or a counselor to learn about what, if any, HCC interventions
might be available to assist you – online tutoring, child care,
financial aid, job placement, etc. – to stay in class and improve
your academic performance.
If you plan on withdrawing from your class, you MUST contact a
HCC counselor or your professor prior to withdrawing (dropping)
the class for approval and this must be done PRIOR to the
withdrawal deadline to receive a “W” on your transcript. **Final
withdrawal deadlines vary each semester and/or depending on
class length, please visit the online registration calendars, HCC
schedule of classes and catalog, any HCC Registration Office, or
any HCC counselor to determine class withdrawal deadlines.
Remember to allow a 24-hour response time when
communicating via email and/or telephone with a
professor and/or counselor. Do not submit a request to
discuss withdrawal options less than a day before the
deadline. If you do not withdraw before the deadline, you will
receive the grade that you are making in the class as your final
grade.
Repeat Course Fee
The State of Texas encourages students to complete college
without having to repeat failed classes. To increase student
success, students who repeat the same course more than twice,
are required to pay extra tuition. The purpose of this extra
tuition fee is to encourage students to pass their courses and to
graduate. Effective fall 2006, HCC will charge a higher tuition
rate to students registering the third or subsequent time for a
course. If you are considering course withdrawal because you are
not earning passing grades, confer with your instructor/counselor
as early as possible about your study habits, reading and writing
homework, test taking skills, attendance, course participation,
and opportunities for tutoring or other assistance that might be
available.
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius

_Handbook/student_policies.pdf
Early Alert
HCC has instituted an Early Alert process by which your professor
will “alert” you through counselors of concerns that you might fail
a class because of excessive absences and/or poor academic
performance.
Classroom Behavior
As your instructor and as a student in this class, it is our shared
responsibility to develop and maintain a positive learning
environment for everyone. Your instructor takes this
responsibility very seriously and will inform members of the class
if their behavior makes it difficult for him/her to carry out this
task. As a fellow learner, you are asked to respect the learning
needs of your classmates and assist your instructor achieve this
critical goal.
Use of Camera and/or Recording Devices
As a student active in the learning community of this course, it is
your responsibility to be respectful of the learning atmosphere in
your classroom. To show respect of your fellow students and
instructor, you will turn off your phone and other electronic
devices, and will not use these devices in the classroom unless
you receive permission from the instructor.
Use of recording devices, including camera phones and tape
recorders, is prohibited in classrooms, laboratories, faculty
offices, and other locations where instruction, tutoring, or testing
occurs. Students with disabilities who need to use a recording
device as a reasonable accommodation should contact the Office
for Students with Disabilities for information regarding reasonable
accommodations
“I hear and I forget”, “I see and I remember”, “I do and I understand.” ……….Confucius
Page 18 of 25
Instructor Requirements

Page 19 of 25
Program/Discipline Requirements
Assignments in electronic format are a discipline requirement of
ACCT 2302. Emailing assignments as attachments is essential.
Assignments reinforce what you are learning in class by
connecting theory to the real world of accounting. The
assignments are very important and as such, they must be
completed on time or you will not receive a passing grade in this
class.
Grading
I will assign homework, projects, conduct examinations, and keep
your work in electronic format as evidences for my assessments
that you can use to determine how successful you are at
achieving the course learning outcomes (mastery of course
content and skills) outlined in the syllabus.
Grading focus will be on the qualitative characteristics of
accounting information (SFAC 2). Students are advised to refer,
for understanding of SFAC 2, following two illustrations in the
book (Kieso13e):
1. Illustration 2-2, Page 35, “Hierarchy of Accounting
Qualities”; and
2. Illustration 2-7, Page 50, “Conceptual Framework for
Financial Reporting”
If you find you are not mastering the material and skills, you are
encouraged to reflect on how you study and prepare for each
class. I welcome a dialogue on what you discover and may be
able to assist you in finding resources on campus that will
improve your performance.

While I highly recommend the option that includes a printed copy
of the text, if you are comfortable forgoing use of a hard-copy
text in favor of an electronic version, you may instead purchase
stand-alone access to McGraw-Hill ConnectPlus. This provides
you with access to all of the assignments in McGraw-Hill
Connect, plus an integrated e-book version of the required
textbook. This option is the least expensive choice for students
planning to take both ACCT 2301 & ACCT 2302. You should bring
your laptop to class.

you are ready to purchase access directly online, go to the

Suggestions for your success: 10 hints for approaching the
course:
1) Take notes as you read all assigned material.
Highlight key terms and concepts to refer to later.
Mark the margin with "?" if you read something
you cannot comprehend and ask for an
explanation.
2) Note sample report formats, and formulas and
keep practicing them until you understand them.
Simple memorization generally does not work.
3) Review and study glossary terms at the back of
each chapter.
4) Bring this syllabus to class each day, and note
any changes to it in writing on your copy.
5) Pay attention to class lectures and homework
reviews and TAKE NOTES!!!
6) Use the study aids in Connect.
7) Ask questions when something seems unclear to
you. If it is unclear to you it is most likely
unclear to someone else also.
8) Check your e-mail and Connect frequently for
correspondence.
9) Do not allow yourself to fall behind in the reading,
homework, and project deadlines.
10) Always bring your textbook and a calculator to
class!
