Best Process To Use To Master The Material

Instructions for preparing to take a practice Mastery Assessment and the FINAL EXAMS in
MyEducator.
Here is the best process to use to master the material.

• Read through or watch the Topic material. (see #1 below)
• Complete the Problems and Solutions. (see #2 below)
• Choose and complete ONE of the Mastery Assessments (A, B, or C) for that Topic. (see #3 below)
• Use your results on the Mastery Assessment to tell you which items you need to study more. Do
that additional study.
• Choose another Mastery Assessment for that Topic. (see #3 below)
• If needed, study some more and then complete the third Mastery Assessment for that Topic. (see
#3 below)
• After completing the first six topics (for financial accounting) or the last six topics (for managerial
accounting), proceed to the FINAL EXAMS (see #4 below)
1. Study the MyEducator Topic. You can do this through reading or watching or a combination of
the two. Login to MyEducator. Use the “Contents” dropdown menu at the top of the
MyEducator screen. Alternatively, you can use the “Contents” menu that appears on the left
side of the screen. Once you have selected a Topic, you can navigate among the different
sections using the Topic table of contents on the left side of the screen.
• If you want to read a section, just scroll down the screen. It might be a good idea to quickly
scan the written material to get an idea of what is being covered.
• PowerPoint slides that match the video narrative in each section can be obtained in
MyEducator. Go to the “Course” dropdown menu in the top right corner of the screen. Select
“Materials.” In the bottom half of this list you see “PowerPoint Slides.” Here is where you can
download PowerPoint slide images for each of the MyEducator Topics. These slides contain a
nice summary of the key points of the MyEducator study assignments. These slides also are a
nice tool for note-taking if you decide to watch or listen to the video clips.
• If you want to watch or listen to the video lectures, just click on the “Play” arrow in the black
box. Of course, if the guy doing the video lecture is speaking too slowly, speed him up by
clicking on the white box in the top right corner of the video play box. To use accelerated
speed, you need to select a Beta version of the new player. Go to the “Reader Preferences”
button in the bottom right corner of the MyEducator screen. Select “Beta Player.” If you
have any troubles with playback of a particular video, you can always switch back to the
“Standard” player by again going to “Reader Preferences.”
2. Study the practice “Problems and Solutions.” These are practice problems (with solutions)
that reinforce the key points in the MyEducator topics. You can access these Problems and
Solutions in two ways. First, a download link is located in the Key Points located at the
beginning of each MyEducator Topic. Alternatively, the Problems and Solutions can be found in
the Materials list under the “Course” dropdown menu in the top right corner of the screen.
There you can download a Word document containing problems and solutions. Work through
these.
3. When you are ready, launch a Mastery Assessment in MyEducator. Follow these steps.
• Click on the “Course” dropdown menu in the top right corner of the screen.
• Select “Assessments.”
• Click on the appropriate Mastery Assessment link in the list. – Note that there are three
Mastery Assessments (A, B, and C) for each Topic. You can choose to do any or all of them.
More about this below.
• These Assessments are open-note. So, as you study the MyEducator Topic, it makes sense to
take good notes.
• Make your selections.
• Before submitting your Assessment, confirm that you have indicated a response to each
question and also confirm that you haven’t accidently changed any of your responses.
• Click “Submit Now.”
• You will see your Assessment results, along with the correct answers to the questions you
missed. Use these results to help you determine which parts of the Topic you need to study
more.
4. The FINAL EXAM

• Once you have completed steps 1 through 3 for the first six topics, you are then ready for the
Financial Accounting FINAL EXAM. The final exam is intended to help you evaluate your
understanding of the Topic material. Do NOT take a FINAL EXAM before you have prepared
yourself by studying ALL of the topics covered in that FINAL EXAM.
o You are allowed to take the FINAL EXAM three times.
o Each version of the FINAL EXAM contains 40 questions.
o The time limit, once you launch a FINAL EXAM, is 120 minutes.
o As with the Mastery Assessments, the FINAL EXAMs are open note.
