Abstract
The researchers of this study selected five journals in the field of education and conducted a series of analyses regarding publications dating from 2010 to 2019 to investigate the research trends and characteristics in the field of Educational Technology. By using the analytic tool Content Analysis Toolkit for Academic Research (CATAR), the researchers in this study conducted bibliometric analysis and breakdown analyses to summarize major contributing countries, educational institutions, most productive authors, and most cited papers; moreover, they used co-word analysis to reveal the representative items within each cluster. The findings in this study can provide implications and references for educators and researchers in the field of Educational Technology when selecting variables for their studies and technologies for their students.
