Journal of Educational Technology and Online Learning, v7 n4 p502-520 2024
The purpose of this study is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research on open and distance learning, focusing on articles affiliated with institutions or authors in Türkiye. Articles were retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) database, those indexed in the SSCI, SCIE, and ESCI categories, published between 2020 and 2024. A total of 1,229 articles were identified through this search. VOSviewer software was used to analyze the distribution of publications by year, keyword co-occurrence, co-authorship networks, co-citation, and citation patterns of journals. The findings indicate that "distance education" and "COVID-19" were the most frequently occurring keywords, reflecting the increasing shift to digital education during the pandemic. Bozkurt A. was the most prolific author, with extensive collaboration in national and international publications. Among institutions, Anadolu University stood out as the leading contributor, reflecting its central role in the development of distance education in Türkiye. Additionally, there was a significant increase in research output during the 2020-2024 period, mirroring global trends in the field.
