Abstract:

Creating significant learning experiences requires a completely new focus on course design and student

learning. This paper highlighted the insight gained from Fink’s twelve steps to integrated course design.

The result was an intermediate accounting course that was more active, relevant, and meaningful to

students. The course objectives were drastically altered to reflect increasingly varied goals. A new

teaching strategy was adopted along with a new set of learning activities to make the course a team

oriented learning process. Course evaluation systems became participative, continuous, and relevant.
