The AECC identifies content and instructional methods as the two most important areas that need attention. This study examines the effectiveness of a computer-based assisted learning (CBAL) on students’ performance and attrition in the first introductory accounting course. The CBAL is a modified supplemental instruction program with an interactive lecture and computer-based IT component. In a three-year experimental study, the overall grade point average (GPA) of the CBAL students were compared to that of a matched paired control group. The two cohorts were further matched on SAT scores as strong and weak, respectively. We found that there was incremental value in terms of students’ performance from CBAL. That is, the GPA of the CBAL students was significantly higher than that of the control group and the attrition rate of the CBAL students is directionally lower than that of the control group. Thus, it appears that the CBAL program is effective in enhancing and improving students’ grades in the first introductory accounting course.","PeriodicalId":146060,"journal":{"name":"AIS Educator Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122861746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More and more accounting systems are utilizing wireless data links, including 802.11 “wi-fi” segments. Because of marketing claims and personal experiences, it is widely believed by both professionals and the public that today's 802.11 wireless equipment has an operational range of well under 500 feet. This paper reports on an experiment which established reliable, high-speed connections across a distance of 56 miles using commercial off-the-shelf equipment. The results provide empirical evidence that the risk of undetected eavesdropping on modern Wi-Fi network transmissions extends to at least a thousand times as far as the commonly-recognized range of these networks. This experiment vividly demonstrates the possibility that accounting data is at risk well outside the normal sphere of expected vulnerability recognized by auditors and systems evaluato...","PeriodicalId":146060,"journal":{"name":"AIS Educator Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121934471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hunton (2006) proposed the Science of Informatics as a unifying theory. Informatics is an interdisciplinary science that studies the representation, processing and communication of information in natural and artificial systems. The panel discussion, “Informatics: Should This Be the Next Theoretical Paradigm for AIS?”, held at the 2007 AIS Educator Conference, explores this topic. Some panelists expressed concern about the effect on accounting software design and on publishing in top journals of adopting informatics as a theoretical foundation. Others suggested that informatics could provide legitimacy by linking AIS research to the mainstream accounting research. Some panelists believed that an informatics foundation would better position AIS research relative to accounting research and increase funding. Consensus opinion noted the value of more research into the contribution of informatics as a theoretical foundation for AIS. This paper briefly reviews the Science of Informatics, summarizes the panel discussion, and concludes with suggestions for integrating informatics into AIS education.","PeriodicalId":146060,"journal":{"name":"AIS Educator Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126529318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents results from over 100 practicing accountants regarding the IT skills they feel are most important for an undergraduate AIS course. The top ten IT skills for small firm (SF) respondents, respectively, are: spreadsheets, Microsoft Word, Internet research, Internet, QuickBooks, ensuring privacy, Cloud Computing, preventing and responding to cybercrime, software security, and managing and retaining data. The top ten IT skills for medium-large firm (MLF) respondents, respectively, are: spreadsheets, Internet, Internet research, ensuring privacy, Microsoft Word, preventing and responding to cybercrime, managing and retaining data, file systems, Cloud Computing, and Business Intelligence Tools. While SF respondents perceive QuickBooks and software security are more important, respondents from MLF think file systems and Business Intelligence Tools are more important. When determining AIS course content it is important to include the most relevant IT skills, based on what practice thinks students need, and this study indicates firm size is a factor for some IT skills. Designers of undergraduate AIS courses, therefore, need to consider the importance of the IT skills in conjunction with the size of the firms that will employ their students when selecting topics for inclusion.","PeriodicalId":146060,"journal":{"name":"AIS Educator Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122370698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
