The purpose of this paper is to explore an innovative teaching design to teach accounting management that aims to foster students’ technical and soft skills. The effectiveness of this new teaching design addresses current concerns for universities preparing students for the future.,The paper deploys the qualitative research methodology and applies multiple methods to gather data in a case study. The researchers collected data through pre- and post-surveys of individual students, three half-day observations on the five project teams and a one-hour long semi-structured interview with a focus group.,Five themes emerged in the research to support the effectiveness of the new teaching design. The study also showed that students’ abilities in self-directed learning (SDL) link to their learning experiences. When students were more capable of initiating learning, such ability enriched their practices of soft skills in the team setting.,This one-shot study had a small group of homogeneous participants and had no baseline comparison to identify the increment of students’ soft skills.,The findings provide valuable insights into the course design and implementation of the teaching approach for the future. The paper suggests that fostering students’ SDL will increase the effectiveness of soft skills development.,This empirical research extends current knowledge of teaching soft skills and calls for action on the development of students’ SDL abilities.

面向未来的教学:跨国大学实践

本文的目的是探索一种创新的教学设计,以教授会计管理,旨在培养学生的技术和软技能。这种新的教学设计的有效性解决了大学为将来学生做准备的当前问题。本文采用定性研究方法,并采用多种方法收集案例研究中的数据。研究人员通过对单个学生的调查前和调查后,对五个项目团队进行的三天半天观察以及与焦点小组进行的一小时半半结构化访谈来收集数据。研究中出现了五个主题,以支持新教学设计的有效性。该研究还表明,学生的自主学习能力(SDL)与他们的学习经历相关。当学生更有能力发起学习时,这种能力丰富了他们在团队环境中的软技能实践。这项单项研究只有一小组同类参与者,并且没有基线比较来确定学生软技能的增长。 ,这些发现为将来的课程设计和教学方法的实施提供了宝贵的见解。本文认为,培养学生的SDL可以提高软技能开发的有效性。这项实证研究扩展了当前对软技能教学的知识,并呼吁采取行动提高学生的SDL能力。这项单项研究只有一小部分同类参与者,并且没有基线比较来确定学生的软技能的增加。这些发现为将来的课程设计和教学方法的实施提供了宝贵的见解。本文认为,培养学生的SDL可以提高软技能开发的有效性。这项实证研究扩展了当前对软技能教学的知识,并呼吁采取行动提高学生的SDL能力。这项单项研究只有一小部分同类参与者,并且没有基线比较来确定学生的软技能的增加。这些发现为将来的课程设计和教学方法的实施提供了宝贵的见解。本文认为,培养学生的SDL可以提高软技能开发的有效性。这项实证研究扩展了当前对软技能教学的知识,并呼吁采取行动提高学生的SDL能力。
