The main goal of deliverable five is to reflect on all the work that you have accomplished.

 

Deliverable Five Objectives:

1. Reflect on how working in collaboration with other students in groups helped you gain an understanding of the term project work.

2. Reflect on how the term project work allowed you to connect accounting theory learned in the textbook to how it is put into practice.

3. Reflect on how you can use your newly discovered skills to help make better accounting business decisions.

Deliverable Five Requirements:

1. Write two pages reflection.

Requirement #1: Write a Reflection

.

You are to write a reflection that addresses your work, and how collaborating with other students in groups helped you gain an understanding of the term project work. You should discuss how you connected accounting theory learned in the textbook to how it is put into practice. This is an important aspect of the project. You also need to discuss how you can use your newly discovered skills to help make better accounting business decisions.

In considering your write-up, the following are some questions you may integrate into your discussion. You don’t have to answer these questions, as they are just for your consideration in case you are lacking ideas. Your discussion should be heart felt. Do not simply just answer these questions and insert them into your reflection. You are to write up a reflection that is in an essay format and in your own words.
