dc.description.abstractGeneration after generation, learning preferences tend to change and teaching strategies in accounting are increasingly being debated among authors. Understanding how students retain the knowledge that is imparted to them is essential for teachers to develop innovative strategies. Currently, the biggest challenge is to understand the learning preferences of Generation Z students, known as the pragmatic generation. In this regard, the VARK questionnaire (Visual, Aural, Read-Write and Kinesthetic) is one of the most widely used diagnostic tools, allowing teachers to understand students' learning preferences and develop innovative learning practices. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to identify the learning preference profiles of Generation Z students in accounting courses taught in Portugal. The authors adopted a survey methodology using the VARK questionnaire, administered to students from four higher education institutions. The expected results will enable the understanding of the learning modes preferred by students and suggest more effective learning strategies, as well as standardized teaching models when applicable. This study contributes to the expansion of literature in the area of accounting education, allowing teachers who teach accounting courses to understand students' learning preferences and adopt their program content to these preferences. Limitations of the study may include the fact that the VARK questionnaire is considered simplistic by several authors. However, future studies could be developed to analyse the influence of other individual learning traits, such as cognitive control, mental abilities, and personality on student learning and mastery.pt_PT
