Business software as technology for learning and knowledge: An experiential approach

Abstract:

This study tests the impact of an experiential learning method on the academic performance of accounting and auditing students. Imparting theoretical and practical content using business software developed the method. A quasi-experiment and an ANCOVA statistical test were used to determine the differences in academic performance depending on the learning method and class schedule. A Likert-type questionnaire was applied to evaluate attitude and motivation. The results showed significant differences in relation to the learning method used. This work contributes to the empirical literature on technologies for teaching and experiential learning by showing the practical application of business software as an educational tool.
