I am reflecting on another recent success of my authentic learning research that has become a part of my being. I submitted a paper to HERDSA for the first time this year. My intention when I submitted was to get feedback on my work, I heard that HERDSA has a very good reputation for its [...]
Winners are grinners: Outstanding Paper Award
Posted by: nonamuldoon on: June 19, 2009
And so my research journey continues with an amazing reward that I never dreamed of getting. I am relatively new to research and getting my paper reviewed is always the aim when I submit. I figured that even if the paper doesn’t get accepted there remains significant learning to be had – the reviewers’ feedback [...]
Should students be given choices between individual and team-based assessment?
Posted by: nonamuldoon on: October 30, 2008
Grades have been finalised and are about to be released for T2 2008, with pleasing results and important points for reflection that are critical to future implementation of the auditing course. One important point in particular is the frequency of course offering. Attrition rates and performance-related issues are significantly higher in T2 for off-campus students [...]
The machinima initiative: outcomes to date
Posted by: nonamuldoon on: October 23, 2008
It has been a while since I posted, which can only suggest that I’ve been busy elsewhere. Indeed I have been pre-occupied, implementing and evaluating the first cycle of design-based research involving the machinima initiative. But I should have been formatively sharing the research journey here… no excuses in the second cycle of implementation This project [...]

This evolution is linked directly to the overall course design. The course goal states: With an emphasis on professional and ethical practice, students will gain an appreciation of the role [...]
Case-based authentic scenarios: Print, video, or audio OR all of the above
Posted by: nonamuldoon on: January 30, 2008
From the course evaluation feedback we have analysed, it is clear that students appreciate the blurring of theory to practice – a position which is also shared by Harrington and Oliver (2000). As such, one of the critical elements of the new learning design for the auditing course is that knowledge must be learned in [...]
Why cognitive apprenticeship: The analysis phase of the auditing course redesign
Posted by: nonamuldoon on: January 30, 2008
The traditional approaches to the learning and teaching of courses within the accounting discipline have long been criticized as lacking rigours to adequately prepare graduates for the profession (Accounting Education Change Commission, 1991; Albrech & Sach, 2001; Carr & Mathews, 2002). Because of the limitations of approaches commonly found in traditional lectures and tutorials many [...]
