This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research for Multimedia in Education from 2020 to 2024. Using the Dimensions AI database, VOSviewer software and Scimago Graphica, we examined 45 publications to identify key trends, influential contributors, and emerging directions in this rapidly evolving…

The rapid digital transformation of education has significantly influenced remote learning, with digital literacy emerging as a crucial competency for students, educators, and institutions. This study employs a bibliometric analysis to explore research trends, influential authors, and thematic developments in digital literacy within remote…

Reviews research which indicates that the knowledge structures of professional literatures are systematically different from those of scientific literatures, and that these differences are consistent with theories of scientific knowledge such as those advanced by Kuhn, Polyani, and Zinman. A list of 104 references is included. (MES)

Describes a citation analysis of articles appearing in the "Journal of Curriculum Studies" (JCS) between the years of 1979-1991. Tabular data includes journals with 10 or more citations to JCS articles, as well as, country of origin for authors and journals citing JCS. Includes an annual list of the 10 most cited papers for the years…

Educationists and researchers who consider the use of the learning style concept to address individual differences in learning are often daunted by the multitude of definitions, models, and instruments. It is difficult to make an informed choice. The confusion with cognitive style, a term often used as a synonym, makes it even more complicated.…

This study examined indirect communication patterns among professionals in the computer-based instruction field by analyzing citations from the Journal of Computer-Based Instruction. The patterns found provide the basis for identifying invisible colleges, defined here as communication networks that facilitate the diffusion of knowledge and direct…

Describes a study that tested the status-role hypothesis by examining the citation networks of geographic journals at distinct time points. The need to consider time factors and disciplinary conditions when interpreting clustering representations is discussed. (25 references) (CLB)

Proposes a new definition of the nuclear zone of a Bradford or Leimkuhler curve. The mathematical rationale is outlined, and examples of the application of this technique to citation analysis are given. (15 references) (CLB)

Examines characteristics of 50 frequently cited authors in the field of computer applications to education (CAE). Citation analysis used in the study is discussed, a taxonomy of topics in CAE based upon the writings of these authors is developed, and a comparison is made with data from the Social Science Citation Index. (LRW)

This bibliometric study assesses literature sources of elementary and early childhood education documents by examining, over a 30-month period, documents entered into the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) data base by the ERIC Clearinghouse on Elementary and Early Childhood Education. The document collection is sorted into three…

Citation analysis of a systematic sample of 27 historical and historiographic articles was used to study the citation patterns of secondary sources in the history of technology. These patterns are compared with previous citation studies in history and other humanities areas and with multi-disciplinary citation studies in the social sciences.…

This report discusses the use of the Science Citation Index produced by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) as a given "expert system" in the experimental study of different search levels. The inquiry has two objectives: (1) to test whether a "traditional" information system will also produce the rudiments of a…

Discusses various strategies for assessing importance of journals for acquisition; describes a discipline-specific selection algorithm which uses journal citation data to identify journals that contribute to a discipline's research foundation as well as those used for professional practice; and reports on two studies which demonstrated the…

Presents a measure of the relative standing of professional journals in an aggregated journal citation matrix. The results of the application of the measure to a network of geographic journals during two time periods are reported and discussed. (35 references) (Author/CLB)

Examines information transfer in atmospheric physics by tracing one paper through five years of citations and suggesting patterns for highly cited papers. The results are also discussed in terms of information transfer in a popularized environment, as stratospheric aerosols have been prominently discussed in the popular press. (Author/EM)
