Educación en la era digital: revisión bibliométrica de los nativos digitales en dos décadas
Resumen
Los nativos digitales forman una generación que creció utilizando la tecnología como principal medio de comunicación. A pesar de la relevancia del tema, aún faltan estudios bibliométricos integrales que relacionen el concepto de nativos digitales con el contexto educativo. Este trabajo analiza la producción académica sobre nativos digitales en la educación entre 2001 y 2023, destacando tendencias recientes. Se utilizaron datos de la base Scopus y el programa VOSviewer para el análisis bibliométrico. Autores como Bennett, Antón-Sancho y Fernández-Arias se destacaron, y el artículo más citado fue “Nativos Digitales, Inmigrantes Digitales Parte 1” de Prensky (2001), referencia central en el área. La investigación identificó cinco líneas temáticas principales: educación computacional, redes sociales, era digital, formación educativa, tecnologías móviles y e-learning. Entre los términos más relevantes para futuras investigaciones están competencia digital, smartphone, aplicación, gamificación, tecnología educativa y era digital. El estudio se consolida como referencia en estudios bibliométricos sobre nativos digitales en el contexto educativo, lo que resalta la importancia de futuras investigaciones sobre tecnologías de enseñanza y el papel de las redes de citación y subtemas emergentes. Finalmente, destaca la necesidad de que las instituciones educativas adapten sus metodologías a la era digital, promoviendo prácticas innovadoras y alineadas con las demandas contemporáneas.
