Abstract
This themed issue of Accounting Education: an international journal contains a selection of papers incorporating teaching resources. AE does not publish stand-alone teaching resources. Accordingly, all of the papers in this issue include not only teaching resources but also contextualize and critique these resources within an academic format, as befits a refereed journal. The themed issue was inspired by the receipt of a number of submissions that took the form of teaching resources rather than papers that reported the results of educational research. While some of these submissions over the years have been of publishable quality, others have displayed a number of common weaknesses. These have included: the material being largely descriptive, usually taking the form of a resource that is used by the author(s) in teaching but with little associated discussion; little in the way of contextualization; a lack of linkage to literature in order to draw out the difficulties associated with the area and to explain the approach adopted; and little evaluation of the effectiveness of the teaching resource. Therefore, a Call for Papers was issued inviting submissions to address these deficiencies. Although edited separately from regular issues, Accounting Education 's usual editorial policies were applied.Preview Only.
