Accounting II
ACG2011
Summer 2013-454986                

Faculty Introduction

My  name is Simone Keize, I have been a college professor at Broward College for over two years. My background experience includes over 7 years of public accounting experience doing financial audits, financial statement preparation and governmental accounting. I am also a Florida Certified Public Accountant (CPA)

Course Description

As the second course of the accounting series, this course concludes the study of financial accounting. Topics covered include plant assets, current liabilities, payroll, corporations, partnerships and cash flow statements. This class is excellent for students who wish to get a more in depth understanding of accounting and the role of an accountant in today's working environment.

Methods of Instruction

This is a 3-credit hour blended course. Normally, a 3-credit hour on-campus course would meet two times each week (during a 16 week term) for a total of 3 hours per week or 48 hours per term. In this class, we will meet once a week on-campus, (Tuesdays), for at least 1.5 hours, and you will engage in structured out-of-class or online activities for the remainder of the class time. These online activities will include graded discussions, graded assignments, a group project, and graded online quizzes.

Faculty Instructions: The SACS principles of accreditation require that the course syllabus describes methods of instruction that are appropriate to the learning outcomes of each course and the capabilities of the students. Faculty should describe their teaching techniques, indicating their relationship to course objectives and student learning. By providing such a statement, instructors are helping students to understand their responsibilities as learners. Feel free to modify the following sample statement to reflect your specific methods of instruction and the correct number of credit hours for your course:
