Abstract:

This paper aims to offer suggestions for future research that may encourage accounting researchers to explore new research directions in accounting education. All articles published in primary accounting education journals from the year 2015 are broken into categories of curriculum issues, cases and teaching notes, technology issues, student issues and faculty issues. There may be a lack of incentive for new, innovative, tenure track faculty to engage in accounting education research, and this may be a contributor to expectation gaps that exist between educators, professionals and the Uniform Certified Public Accountant (CPA) Exam. Advancement of accounting education research will provide resources for accounting faculty to more effectively manage curriculum, and deliver the tools that will close expectation gaps that exist between the profession, academic community and Uniform CPA exam. Citation rates will increase as will incentive for new tenure-track faculty to develop research an interest in accounting education. This paper provides value as it allows the reader who may be unfamiliar with research in accounting education, but experienced in other areas of education research to become familiar with the primary areas of focus by current authors for the primary accounting education journals, and learn where additional research is needed.
