Beyond the textbook

Show, don't tell

The same homework, two ways. Look at what each one asks a student to do.

Textbook problemAccounting Assembly case
Traditional tax homework with all numbers in one paragraph versus Accounting Assembly where students review client documents and memos before answering

Left: every figure is given. Right: students dig through W-2s, 1099s, and client notes—then apply what they learned in lecture.
