Experiencias de Estudiantes En Ingeniería: ¿Qué se ha Publicado desde Iberoamérica?

Abstract

This work aims to identify trends in Ibero-American scientific production in relation to the experiences of engineering students. For this, a bibliometric and content analysis of the articles published in journals indexed in WoS from January 1995 to June 2022 was carried out. The findings show: 1) an upward trend in the articles published over time, 2) an leadership of Spain in the generation of knowledge, 3) good levels of international scientific collaboration, and 4) two main research topics: “Technology as a facilitator of the teaching-learning process” and “Alternative teaching approaches, methods and initiatives”. We concluded that, when talking about student experiences in engineering is mainly associated with the training process, understood as the approaches, methods and initiatives that emerge as alternatives to traditional methods. Active learning, strongly associated with the pursuit of critical thinking, as well as the use of technologies, are the main aspects highlighted.
