Digital Storytelling Research in Education: Bibliometric and Systematic Analysis

The main purpose of this research is to examine the general trends of digital storytelling studies in the field of education through bibliometric maps. Additionally, the objectives of this research include expanding the scope of the data by systematically examining the most cited studies, conducting in-depth analyses of related studies, and comparing the obtained data. In the related study, multiple research methods were used. Accordingly, bibliometric analysis and systematic review methods were used together in this study. Within the scope of bibliometric analysis, 436 studies (articles and paper presentation)) published in English in the field of education in the WoS database were analyzed with the VOSviewer application. Then, the twenty documents with the highest number of citations were identified using the same application, and the relevant documents were included in the systematic review. Thus, combining the data obtained from both methods is considered very important in terms of expanding the scope of the research, examining the relevant subject in more depth, and comparing and confirming the data obtained. In this context, analyses were conducted on 436 documents using VOSviewer software to identify the most frequently used keywords, the most publishing countries, universities, journals, and the most cited documents and authors. In addition, the publication years of 436 studies selected in line with certain criteria were determined through the WoS database. Furthermore, the number of authors of the studies included in the systematic review was coded, and the first authors were identified. The WoS profiles of these authors were analyzed in terms of the number of digital storytelling studies, their h-index, and their authorship positions. The data obtained from these two stages are presented by comparing them.
