Abstract text:
This study explores the application of Padlet, a digital collaborative platform, in accounting education to enhance student engagement. Accounting, often perceived as dry or difficult, presents unique challenges in sustaining student interest and motivation. The integration of interactive technologies like Padlet is increasingly relevant in today's digital learning environments. This paper examines the theoretical underpinnings of student engagement, the functionalities of Padlet, and how it can be effectively integrated into accounting curricula. Through a review of recent studies (2020-2025), a case study, and survey analysis, the research highlights the potential of Padlet to foster collaboration, active participation, and deeper learning in accounting classrooms.
