Suggestions for Using Your Instructor’s Guide
This Instructor’s Guide for Accounting for Hospitality Managers, Fifth Edition, is designed to be a
flexible, easy-to-use resource to help you plan the type of class that is best for you and your students.
This guide can be adapted to a variety of teaching formats. You may wish to follow one of the course
schedules suggested on pages v and vi, or develop your own. Keep in mind that the Educational Institute
recommends holding class regularly—once a week or more frequently if desired.
Instructor’s Guide Components
This Instructor’s Guide consists of 20 chapter sessions. More than one chapter session may be assigned to
a class period.
Each chapter session consists of a sample lesson plan and class activities. These contain components—key
concepts, individual/group activities, an optional test, transparency masters, and so on—that can be used
alone or in combination with other session components to help you create an interesting and exciting
classroom presentation.
Sample Lesson Plan
The sample lesson plan contains competencies, key concepts, text exhibits, and transparency masters.
Transparency masters and exhibits from the text can be used to illustrate key concepts. Transparency
masters are located at the end of each session. Exhibits are located in the text.
Class Activities
The suggested class activities in this section are available for you to supplement your classroom
presentation if you wish. These activities are designed to provide students with information, variety, and
viewpoints from others in the hospitality industry. Class activities include suggested guest speakers, an
optional test, videotape supplements, and individual/group activities. At least one of these categories will
appear in each chapter session.
Guest speakers can play an important role in the course, but arranging for guest speakers requires planning.
Look at the suggestions for guest speakers in the chapter sessions as soon as possible so that those
speakers you wish to invite to class can be given plenty of advance notice.
Should you wish to use videotapes to supplement this course, you can order them by writing the
Educational Institute, 2113 North High Street, Lansing, MI 48906, or by calling 1-517-372-8800.
Class activities involve students in a variety of challenging activities. Class activities can be valuable
learning experiences, but they require some time and effort. It may be wise to always look several sessions
ahead so that guest speakers, videotapes, and individual/group work assignments can be planned for in a
timely manner.
Optional Test
This section provides hard copy of the optional test questions found on the CD-ROM. Correct answers and
the competencies where the answers may be found are provided in the Optional Test section of each
session. The optional test questions provide a foundation upon which you can build a customized test to
meet the unique requirements of your course. Alternatively, the test can simply be photocopied and given
to each student.
