The interest in New Media has been increasing in research areas due to the growing amount of information and the constant development of technology. The form of information consumption has become more and more comprehensive and accessible, making it increasingly easier for society to identify the best and fastest ways of intervention to obtain relevant information for educational and social growth. However, there are still models of content transmission that need to be adapted to certain places, audiences, and needs, which requires more studies to identify the problem and beyond this, recognition of cause and effect in order to propose improvements in the process of social development. To act on social and educational problems, the Action-Research methodology presents itself as a possible solution. This methodology is characterized by constant collaboration between researchers and stakeholders living in the context of the problem, and the redefinition of solutions until the final goal is reached. Critical group thinking is thus central to the successful development of solutions to the problem at hand. Thus, this systematic literature review aims to identify and analyze the research conducted around New Media, with the implementation of the Action Research methodology. The SCOPUS database was used for the analysis, in which eight articles were found, with a time interval between 2015 and 2022, that used and operationalized the practice of Action-Research methodology to achieve the proposed empirical objectives, cyclically redefining the implemented actions in a participatory action context. This systematic literature review, further explores different contexts and areas of study, with the implementation of Action-Research methodology in relevant problems that are presented and analyzed through a meta-analysis. In this follow-up, in the meta-analysis it was possible to verify the diversity of contexts in the new means in the use of the methodology, not being permanent the area of education. In addition, the use of the methodology generated new perspectives for development and the possibility of future studies on the problems that were being investigated.
