Abstract
Abstract The purpose of this study was to explain the level of accounting understanding in the learning process based on the technology. Population, there were 453 accounting students. The results: the level of understanding for assets was 85.5% and equity 86.8%, which is very understandable. For liabilities, it was only 66.1%, less understanding. Through statistical testing, the accounting learning system using Google Classroom provides a level of understanding of 0.437, using Zoom is 1.334, and the use of WhatsApp is −0.158, which has a negative effect. Zoom is superior because lecturers and students can interact as they would in an offline classroom setting. This research can be generalized to different courses.
