dc.description.abstractThis paper focuses on the integration of generic skills in a course as part of curriculum improvements that increase student learning. Generic skills enable students to become work-ready and have career success. Previously, university educators were commonly emphasising the acquisition of ‘technical knowledge’ with the belief that generic skills will be developed in the workplace. However, these days, employers expect to recruit graduates who possess a reasonable degree of generic skills. By using action research method, this paper reports on how real-world examples were adopted and successfully incorporated in the auditing course. An action research methodology is commonly used by academics to improve their curriculum and practice. Different teaching activities have engaged students effectively in learning various aspects of the course. The implementation was evaluated by drawing on student feedback, combined with Lecturers reflections on the process. Students enjoyed this way of learning and appeared to be excited when they presented their work to their peers in class. Lecturers also observed that students were more engaged in classroom discussion and debates under this learning approach. The process of curriculum development discussed in this paper would benefit wider business educators.
