Better prepare students via real-world practice

Blank Sheet of Paper Experience screen grab

Blank Sheet of Paper Experience

Students must rely on their own content knowledge when taking exams. There's no "easy out" during test time, so why should there be during homework? The Blank Sheet of Paper Experience used for journals, ledgers and financial statements, helps prevent overreliance on the system by empowering students to problem-solve on their own.

Multi-Panel View screen grab

Multi-Panel View

Scrolling can prevent students from seeing the big picture and understanding the accounting system — causing frustration. The Multi-Panel View in CNOWv2 enables students to see all the elements of a problem on one screen, framing tasks as interconnected components in the accounting process.

Auto-Gradable Tax Return Forms

Taxes needn't mean stress. Auto-gradable Tax Return Forms in CNOWv2 give students real-world, practical experience needed to master tax concepts. In fact, in a survey of accounting students using CNOWv2, 82% believed the platform helped them better understand course concepts.

Provide aha! moments before the exam
