Abstract

This review of the accounting education literature includes 112 articles published during 2021 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 16 prior accounting education literature reviews by organizing and summarizing contributions to the accounting education literature made during 2021. 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 describe the research technique of the empirical articles. Suggestions for research are presented. Articles classified as cases and instructional resources published in the same five journals during 2021 are tabulated in appendices categorized by instructional content area.
