A Scientometric Review of E-School1993-2023

Abstract

E-schools, marked by their digital and interactive settings, offer synchronous and asynchronous learning, transcending traditional educational confines. Highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic, these schools emphasize flexibility and accessibility, crucial for education during crises. The expected post-pandemic growth of e-learning stresses digital literacy, and combines online and conventional learning techniques. Global access to e-learning hints at equitable educational opportunities, despite geographical barriers. This study employs bibliometric analysis to understand e-schools' academic influence, examining related literature, citation impact, and global reach. It explores thematic trends and emerging research areas in e-schools, identifying key publications and contributors. By mapping the global distribution and recognizing leading nations and institutions in e-school research, this study offers a comprehensive view of current and future dynamics in digital education, aiming to guide educators, policymakers, and researchers in this evolving domain.
