We’ve talked to tons of Managerial Accounting instructors and our editors have even taken the accounting course (numerous times!) to figure out the following issue in this course that is consistent: Students understand (or “get it”) right after you do a problem in class, but as soon as they leave class, with each passing hour, their ability to do the problems again and complete their homework diminishes to the point of them either having to come to office hours to get help, or they just quit and get behind in the course. On top of this, you can end up getting behind in the course as well, in order to keep everyone on track. The Demo Docs system helps to recreate the “I get it” moments outside of class—keeping both you and the students on track.
Features * The Demo Docs are purposely written with a very conversational tone to give students the feel of having you, their instructor, over their shoulder helping them complete the exercise. * Clutter-Free — Bamber 1e is built on the premise of Less is More. Extraneous boxes and features, non-essential bells and whistles…are all gone. Too much excess crowds out what really matters–the concepts, the problems, the learning objectives. Instructors -- you’ve asked for fewer “features” in favor of more exercises with better cross referencing, and Bamber 1e is delivering on that wish. * Consistency – The entire package does matter. Consistency in form, function, and language from one medium to another; test bank to study guide. So when students ask “Where do the numbers come from?” they can go to our text OR go online and know what to do. If it’s worded one way in the text, you can count on it being worded the same way in the supplements. * Flash INSTRUCTOR Demo Docs–The very same demo docs that your students will use to stay on top of the material and complete their homework are provided for you on CD for use in lecture. In theory, you will not need to prepare your own walk-through problems. You can simply use these to help students “get it” in your lecture.
