IASB: Free IFRS teaching material

16 January 2014

The IFRS Foundation Education Initiative published the second part of its comprehensive Framework based IFRS teaching material.

The material is presented in four parts:

i. Stage 3 material covering the IAS 8 hierarchy. This material focuses on enhancing the students’ ability to make the judgements that are necessary when there is no IFRS that specifically applies to a transaction, other event or condition. To do so effectively, the material includes a comprehensive case study that a teacher could use to explore, in class discussion, the judgements about the accounting and reporting of economic phenomena that are unfamiliar to the students.

ii. A series of multimedia presentations introducing IFRS teachers to Framework based teaching and to each part of the more comprehensive materials that are available.

iii. Updated Stages 1–3 material covering non-financial assets (2014 edition).

iv. New and updated Chinese-language, Portuguese-language and Spanish language translations of the material covering the IAS 8 hierarchy and non-financial assets.
