The Effectiveness Of Using Python Programming Approach In Teaching Ffnancial Analytics, Clarence Goh, Yuanto Kusnadi, Gary Pan
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
This study presents a learning method and challenges regarding implementing a Python programming approach in teaching financial analytics to graduate accounting students. The advent of Big Data, as well as related applications and technologies, has significantly changed the process and practice of accounting. This has led to essential changes in the construction and teaching content of accounting education. While there have been several studies examining how data analytics is embedded in the accounting curriculum, the majority of the teaching cases in accounting focus on analysis and communication with Excel as the principal tool, with very few covering the necessary steps …

Gamified Online Industry Learning Platform For Teaching Of Foundational Computing Skills, Yi Meng Lau, Rafael Jose Barros Barrios, Gottipati Swapna, Kyong Jin Shim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Online industry learning platforms are widely used by organizations for employee training and upskilling. Courses or lessons offered by these platforms can be generic or specific to an enterprise application. The increased demand of new hires to learn these platforms or who are already certified in some of these courses has led universities to look at the opportunities for integrating online industry learning platforms into their curricula. Universities hope to use these platforms to aid students in their learning of concepts and theories. At the same time, these platforms can equip students with industryrecognized certifications or digital badges. This paper …
A Recommendation On How To Teach K-Means In Introductory Analytics Courses, Manoj Thulasidas
A Recommendation On How To Teach K-Means In Introductory Analytics Courses, Manoj Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We teach K-Means clustering in introductory data analytics courses because it is one of the simplest and most widely used unsupervised machine learning algorithms. However, one drawback of this algorithm is that it does not offer a clear method to determine the appropriate number of clusters; it does not have a built-in mechanism for K selection. What is usually taught as the solution for the K Selection problem is the so-called elbow method, where we look at the incremental changes in some quality metric (usually, the sum of squared errors, SSE), trying to find a sudden change. In addition to …

Making Virtual Project-Based Learning Work During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Yuanto Kusnadi, Gary Pan, Shankararaman, Venky
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
Project-based learning is an increasingly popular pedagogical approach in university education shown to be effective in fostering problem-solving, analytical, design thinking and teamwork skills. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to universities pivoting from project-based learning (PBL) in the classroom to a virtual learning environment. By examining local student consulting courses conducted virtually in a Singapore University (UNIS) during the COVID-19 pandemic, this study aims to address the knowledge gap in the PBL literature by identifying the roles played by digital literacy - in utilising the digital tools that support virtual learning, in a virtual learning environment. The study also serves …

Consulting for a startup company is an effective way for Master of Business Administration (MBA) students to learn about management consulting, and the ways and means of a startup company. This paper discusses the experience of an MBA startup project within the context of a core corporate finance course. The project requires the active engagement of several groups of stakeholders—MBA students, the university’s entrepreneurship incubator, a selection of startup companies, and the project’s academic collaborators. In line with the literature, we find that entrepreneurship education through student-startup collaboration contributes to the students’ entrepreneurial learning, and that the offering of an …

Designers play a key role in the design of inclusive and socially conscious interfaces. Thus, it is imperative for designers to be thoughtful of the ethical and social implications of design. However, gaps in the foundational training that designers receive (e.g., as university students) can negatively impact their ability to consider the social implications of their design practice. This can result in consequences such as digital marginalization, which, as defined by the Digital Design Marginalization (DDM) framework, is the “pushing away”, whether intentional or not, of a defined group of users from a digital or online service or system, where …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Video-based programming tutorials are a popular form of tutorial used by authors to guide learners to code. Still, the interactivity of these videos is limited primarily to control video flow. There are existing works with increased interactivity that are shown to improve the learning experience. Still, these solutions require setting up a custom recording environment and are not well-integrated with the playback environment. This paper describes our integrated ITSS environment and evaluates the ease of authoring and playback of our interactive programming tutorials. Our environment is designed to run within the browser sandbox and is less intrusive to record interactivity …

The business world exists as an eco-system of business, government, NGOs and non-profits, each interlocking. To be truly a "School for Business" it is also important to build strong relationships and strategic partnerships with the business world. In …
