Análisis bibliométrico sobre la Enseñanza Superior en el contexto de la pandemia

Abstract

Higher Education has undergone major changes due to the pandemic, especially in terms of the abrupt change in its modality, from face-to-face to non-face or hybrid teaching. All of this has varied according to the health circumstances of the moment, but what has always been latent throughout the pandemic is the fact that we are teaching in a specific context, which also requires specific pedagogical responses. It is therefore time to analyse what responses have been envisaged. This research has therefore focused on analysing, from a bibliometric point of view, the scientific production on Higher Education during the Covid-19 pandemic. A descriptive analysis of the scientific production, the most relevant sources, the authors, the countries of correspondence and the countries and institutions of origin has been carried out. In addition, dominance indices were calculated, as well as co-citation and bibliographic coupling matrices. As results to be highlighted, it is worth mentioning that the scientific production on training processes in Higher Education in relation to the pandemic has increased from 126 documents (2020) to 348 (2021), which implies a growth of 276.19%, and most of the research was articles (n = 385, 80.54%). All this can be used to analyse the pedagogical aspects addressed and to define what a post-pandemic scenario should look like in terms of Higher Education in the 21st century.
