This paper synthesizes research-based instructional strategies in accounting education, providing an important resource of learning-centered educational approaches from recent studies. Eleven articles published in 2019 from five accounting education journals are summarized. Categorized according to Marzano's research-based instructional strategies framework for effective instruction, these articles provide empirically-based studies on instructional design, organized as a thematic-bibliography. Research-based instructional strategies (RBIS) provide educators with learning-centered educational approaches and demonstrated student learning efficacy through evidence-based conclusions. Trends in the literature highlight the positive learning outcomes associated with strategies that create an active learning environment. Studies published in 2019 include an analysis of group and team-based learning, structured student assessment, class-participation tracking tools, game-based learning, and the use of instructor-generated videos. These findings provide evidence-based pedagogical approaches to improve instruction and learning outcomes, potentially reducing the trial-and-error method of testing a strategy's effectiveness.
