Advances in Accounting Education
Volume 4

Advances in Accounting Education is a refereed, research annual whose purpose is to meet the needs of individuals interested in the educational process. Articles may be non-empirical or empirical. Our emphasis is on pedagogy, and articles MUST explain how teaching methods or curricula/programs can be improved.

Non-empirical papers should be academically rigorous. They can be thought pieces (e.g., anecdotal experiences with various pedagogical tools, position papers on particular issues, or historical discussions with implications for current and future efforts). Reasonable assumptions and logical development are essential. The papers must place the topic within the context of the course or program and discuss any relevant tradeoffs or policy issues.

For empirical reports sound research design and execution are critical. Articles must develop a thorough motivation and literature review (possibly including references from outside the accounting field) to provide the basis for the efforts and place the study in a solid context.

Submission Information

Send three copies (including any research instruments) with a $35 submission fee. Manuscripts should include a cover page, which lists all authors' names and address (with telephone numbers, fax numbers and e-mail addresses). The authors' names and addresses should not appear on the abstract. To assure an anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves directly or indirectly. References to unpublished working papers or dissertations should be avoided.
