Don't you love those moments in your course when students are fully
engaged? When the "Aha!" revelations are bursting like fireworks?
David Spiceland, Wayne Thomas, and Don Herrmann have developed a unique
set of materials based directly on their collective years in the
classroom. They've brought together best practices like highlighting
Common Mistakes, offering frequent Let's Review exercises, integrating
the course with a running Continuing Problem, demonstrating the
relevance of the course with real-world companies and decision analysis,
and conveying it all in a student-friendly conversational writing style.
The authors have developed a concise and well-organized learning
framework to show students that accounting consists of three major
processes: measuring, analyzing, and communicating. By consistently
tying each lesson into this framework, instructors can continue to
improve student outcomes.
After the proven success of the first four editions of Financial
Accounting, the fifth edition will continue to motivate, engage, and
challenge students. Paired with the market-leading power of the Connect
platform, the Spiceland/Thomas/Hermann author team will truly illuminate
the financial accounting course for each student.
