It contributes to the related literature in two dimensions. First, it tests whether there is a positive association between students’ performances on homework and exams. Importantly, it measures learning through exams that were given shortly after students completed the relevant homework, thereby avoiding a potential “decaying effect.” Second, it tests whether the impact of homework varies by learning mode—face-to-face versus online. Results show that online homework improves learning. However, there is no significant difference in the impact of homework between the two learning modes.","PeriodicalId":47318,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education for Business","volume":"98 1","pages":"59 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43967922","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}

Students who individually engaged with the longer online case were less likely to endorse deceptive business negotiation tactics versus the control group, whereas students who engaged with the shorter online case were not.","PeriodicalId":47318,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education for Business","volume":"98 1","pages":"43 - 50"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46757135","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}

Population, there were 453 accounting students. The results: the level of understanding for assets was 85.5% and equity 86.8%, which is very understandable. For liabilities, it was only 66.1%, less understanding. Through statistical testing, the accounting learning system using Google Classroom provides a level of understanding of 0.437, using Zoom is 1.334, and the use of WhatsApp is −0.158, which has a negative effect. Zoom is superior because lecturers and students can interact as they would in an offline classroom setting.

This research provides associate deans and researchers, a roadmap with which to gather evidence to improve the quality of open-ended assessments. Based on statistical methods, we used our results to discuss the validity and consistency of six assessments applied in Insper—an AACSB accredited school in Brazil. The roadmap was capable of targeting aspects needing improvement, which is better than having to discard the assessments and developing new ones, and stimulating faculty awareness to consistent metrics to accurately manage the curriculum.","PeriodicalId":47318,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education for Business","volume":"98 1","pages":"34 - 42"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47538157","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}

The results reveal that the level of knowledge about financial literacy is quite heterogeneous. Formal and informal channels tend to coexist when they perform a financial decision.
