Accounting and Finance Career Research + Write the Room Scavenger Hunt
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
This learning tool will get your Accounting or Finance students researching and then up out of their seats collaborating in a write the room activity. This activity covers the following accounting and finance-related careers options: tax accountant, credit analyst, financial advisor, branch manager, actuary, financial analyst, investment banker, external auditor, bookkeeper, appraiser, cost accountant, payroll accountant, internal auditor, CFO, and teller.
Students will start by researching the basics of each career. Then, optionally review student responses with the suggested responses. Next, students will complete the write the room activity. This file includes 15 application-based prompts for students to match with careers. Students will move around the room to read each prompt and use the word bank on their worksheet to record their responses. An alternate worksheet is provided without the careers if you prefer not to give students the word bank. Three reflection questions are also included in the activity. An answer key for the write the room activity is included to review correct responses.
This activity is a great way to interact with various financial careers and get students thinking and collaborating. Students can work individually or in small groups based on your discretion. I like to print the prompt cards on colored paper and laminate. This way they are ready to go and can be used again each semester.
