摘要
探究社区(CoI)为研究技术强化学习环境提供了有用的工具。它还被用作许多相关研究的理论框架。自开发以来,该框架在远程教育、在线和混合式学习以及计算机辅助教学等许多领域引起了学者们的浓厚兴趣。尽管对 CoI 进行了广泛的研究,但还没有一项研究对该框架的所有出版物进行统计和数学分析。本研究旨在通过应用文献计量分析技术,全面回顾二十多年来有关 CoI 框架的出版物。因此,使用 VOSviewer、Bibliometrix 和 CiteSpace 工具分析了过去 24 年(1999-2023 年)中所有相应的 Scopus 记录(共计 5169 条)。研究描述了各种基本研究指标,如研究类别(方向)、最有成果的作者、期刊、机构和国家,以及潜在的研究热点。专题分析通过可视化当前的 CoI 研究景观,突出了吸引该领域学者的研究主题。
More than two decades of community of inquiry research: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis
The Community of Inquiry (CoI) has provided a useful tool for studying technology-enhanced learning environments. It has also been implemented as the theoretical framework for many types of relevant research. Since its development, the framework has generated substantial interest among scholars in many fields such as distance education, online and blended learning and computed-mediated instruction. Although extensive research has been carried out on the CoI, no single study has been conducted that statistically and mathematically examines all publications of the framework. This study aimed to comprehensively review more than two decades of publications on the CoI framework by applying the bibliometric analysis technique. Therefore, all the corresponding Scopus records (in total 5169) in the past 24 years (1999-2023) were analyzed using the VOSviewer, Bibliometrix, and CiteSpace tools. The study described various essential research indicators, such as the research categories (directions), most productive authors, journals, institutions, and countries, along with potential research hotspots. The thematic analysis highlighted the research themes that have attracted scholars in the field by visualization of the current CoI research landscape.
