An Experiential Diary of the Change to Teaching Accounting Online During Covid-19

Thu, March 18, 1:00 to 2:30pm, Virtual, TBA

Abstract

Accounting is a difficult discipline to teach and to learn. Teaching accounting classes online during Covid-19 quarantine creates new and unique problems. This paper discusses experiences in teaching accounting classes that had to move from face-to-face to online environments during the spring 2020 semester, the advent of Covid-19. Anonymous discussions by students, as well as communication with other accounting professors indicate massive and rapid flexibility required of faculty, rampant increases in cheating, high stress for both students and faculty, simplification of class materials to reach students, student rebellion against online proctoring tools, constant problems with technology, and a decrease in class participation—regardless of extensive efforts made by the professors.
