Bibliometric research in technology-mediated learning with high capacity students

Abstract

This paper is a review of a research regarding technology-mediated learning for gifted students. The study was carried out through a bibliometric analysis of the scientific production in the well-known Scopus database. Thirty-five articles published between 1993 and 2018 were evaluated without a time filter, from which a selection of indicators of scientific productivity, collaboration, consumption and impact, as well as structural and content variables were analyzed. Although the number of articles is not very high, the results showed an increase in recent scientific publications focused on learning processes mediated by highcapacity students and a concentration of publications in Social Science and Psychology journals, in addition to showing, in these articles, the emerging patterns of authorship, publication and topics of interest in this field. Finally, it is suggested to review the practices for disseminating findings and addressing issues related to the effects of technology on learning in terms of gender, age, family role, and initial and continuing education.
