A Literature Review of Technology‐Related Research in Accounting Education: 2010–2020*

Abstract

This literature review includes 187 articles with a technology focus that were published during the past decade, 2010–2020, in seven accounting education journals. We analyze these articles with a goal of identifying the research conducted at the intersection of technology and accounting education. Five accounting education areas of focus emerge, with each having prevalent themes. Within these themes, we identify the technological infusion and how it was applied or related to accounting education. Where feasible, we report information on the target expected use (users) within each of the five accounting focus areas in the article, and we present any relevant key findings. We conclude by identifying research voids and suggesting potential directions for future research. The analysis should aid current faculty in their efforts to infuse appropriate technology into accounting education with a goal of producing technologically savvy graduates.
