Abstract

This review of the accounting education literature includes 81 articles published during 2019 in five accounting education journals: (1) Journal of Accounting Education, (2) Accounting Education, (3) Advances in Accounting Education: Teaching and Curriculum Innovations, (4) Issues in Accounting Education, and (5) The Accounting Educators’ Journal. We update 14 prior accounting education literature reviews by organizing and summarizing contributions to the accounting education literature made during 2019. Articles are categorized into five sections corresponding to traditional knowledge bases: (1) curriculum and instruction, (2) instruction by content area, (3) educational technology, (4) students, and (5) faculty. We summarize and critique the research rigor of the empirical articles. Suggestions for research are presented. Articles classified as instructional resources and cases published in the same five journals during 2019 are tabulated in appendices categorized by the appropriate content area.
