Each student will be required to select and verbally present a recent article from Strategic Finance (recent 3 years). The presentation should last at least 3 minutes but should not be longer than 4 minutes. Full text of Strategic Finance articles can be accessed from the UVU Fulton Library website via the Business Source Premier database. The presentation should cover a summary of the article and how the article relates to managerial accounting. Each student should select an article and post the title and month/year published in Strategic Finance to the Discussion posting in Canvas at least a week in advance of their presentation to ensure that another student has not selected the same article. Articles will be presented as outlined in the course schedule (time permitting) – students with last names starting with A-G on February 5, last names starting with H-O on March 11, and last names starting with P-Z on April 15.
Grading will be based on 2 items: 1)presentation time length – should be between 3 and 4 minutes and 2) completeness – should include a summary of the article and how it related to cost/managerial accounting
