Session 4
KISSES: Keep It Simple Standards Equal Success

Presenter:
Susan V. Crosson, Santa Fe Community College

Description:
Business and accounting literacy are both possible through the integration of accounting software such as Microsoft Business Solutions-Great Plains into the business curricula—especially into the required accounting courses. But how to begin? Try keeping it simple. Emphasize the basic business practices of a service business so business majors can anchor their understanding of all businesses. By having students use MBS-Great Plains to run a service business, they gain work authentic competencies. This effective learning session will demonstrate how to use flashcards of basic MBS-Great Plains business practices to actively engage students in starting and running a business.
