Accounting educators need to be conscious of the importance of widening the vision of students by having them appreciate the origin of accounting concepts and the contestable character of those concepts. Chabrak and Craig (2013) have drawn attention to the importance of developing students’ critical thinking. For support, they cite Wallace (2010). The latter has highlighted a “tectonic shift” in the thinking of business school leaders who, he claims, are beginning to recognize the need to develop students critical and creative thinking. Increasingly, according to Wallace (2010, p.BU1), American business school leaders are accepting the need to develop “holistic thinkers” “free of bias or predisposition,” who can “bring a principled set of scales” and “multidisciplinary approaches” to problems and “important moral decisions.” Chabrak and Craig (2013) emphasize the importance of students understanding that “accounting and its concepts are relative and not absolute truths, or natural laws […] [and that students] […] appreciate the contestable character of concepts, to think of alternatives and other possibilities, and to consider ethical values as they do so.”
