Mapping the Digital Pedagogy Research Trends in Asia: A Scientometric Perspective
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: This study brings together and outlines the scattered research on digital teaching across Asia from 2000 to 2025. It looks at past trends and predicts where the field is heading. Using a scientometric method, bibliographic data were taken from the Scopus database. The analysis included ARIMA models to forecast publications, network visualization for international co-authorship, machine learning algorithms for grouping themes, and SVM classifiers to differentiate between research focused on teaching and research focused on technology. The field has built a solid empirical base, mostly through journal articles. This marks a change from crisis-driven remote teaching to lasting, AI-driven smart education systems. Major research centers like Malaysia, China, and Singapore are leading the way in the region, but a significant digital gap leaves some Asian countries isolated. This study offers the first detailed, data-driven framework that outlines the changing concepts in Asian digital pedagogy.
