A Student Self-Managed Project for Learning Tax Topics Investigated at Five Universities

摘要

A student self-managed learning Project was investigated at five universities (large urban, western regional, historic African-American, midwest regional, and southwest regional) that required the students to actively participate in their learning process by organizing relatively complex tax topics. A Quiz and Final Exam were used to examine the short-term and long-term effects of this Project. A Survey was used to obtain student opinions regarding usefulness of the Project. At all five universities, this Project appeared to be as effective in learning the assigned topics as either reading the textbook or reviewing the textbook examples.
