Anecdotal evidence suggests that students with quantitative business majors (e.g., finance, accounting, data analytics, economics) outperform students from less quantitatively rigorous majors (e.g., management, human resource management, marketing) on a business simulation game at a mid-sized, southeastern, public, AACSB accredited university. We…

This study aims to 1) explore the listening challenges of high- and low-proficiency EFL accounting undergraduates, 2) compare listening challenges and listening strategies between high- and low-proficiency learners and 3) investigate the effectiveness of mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) in developing EFL-listening skills.

Business cases are commonly adopted into the accounting curricula to promote deep learning. However, in practice, case-based learning is often ineffective without facilitation because of accounting students' strong surface-learning tendencies. This study investigates the case-based learning effect of colour-coded digital annotation (CCDA). CCDA…

This study explores final-year undergraduate accounting students' perceptions of the accounting profession based on an analysis of personal metaphors.
