The study is an investigation of service-learning pedagogy to
infuse passion into accounting education and develop the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants' (AICPA) Core
Competencies. A sample of twenty-eight students in an accounting
class conducted research on the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
(VITA) Program. They conducted site research; designed and created
a website; developed and distributed advertising and training
materials; developed and implemented financial literacy training
classes for the socioeconomically marginalized people in our
community; and developed and implemented recruitment sessions for
VITA volunteers. Extensive qualitative data was collected from
student journals, meeting minutes, Blackboard discussions, focus
group interviews, and structured open-ended questionnaires;
researcher field notes and journals; and community member feedback.
Rich and in-depth evidence of student development of passion and
AICPA Core Competencies is provided by this multidimensional and
multidisciplinary service-learning experience enhanced by holistic
approaches (cognitive, affective, spiritual, multiple
intelligences, and inclusive education).
