Trends and Topics in Educational Technology, 2026 Edition
摘要
In this continuation of a series, we provide an analysis of scholarship trends over the last five years in the field of educational technology, drawing from the Scopus and ERIC databases. We report an analysis of the keywords reported for articles during this timeframe, including trends about which keywords are rising or falling in importance. We also report the top-cited papers, scholars, and institutions. Finally, we share findings about the impact of open access on the field. We interpret these results, including the seismic impact that generative artificial intelligence has had on the scholarship of the field, and conclude with recommendations for future research.
