摘要
本文对《计算机与教育》(Computers&Education)创刊40年来(1976—2016年)所发表的3,674篇正式论文的摘要和标题进行内容分析,以发现和分析其主题与概念的变化、它们如何反映不断发展的技术和理论以及研究课题和概念在语义上的相互关系。摘要和标题的词汇密度高,突出了文章的核心问题,因此被认为适合这种概念分析。本研究采用文本挖掘工具进行关联概念分析,结果显示,过去40年的文章反映了教育技术和基于媒体的学习理论领域的重大发展,体现为四个明显的阶段:基于计算机的教学的改进和发展(1976—1986年)、单机多媒体学习(1987—1996年)、以联网计算机为工具开展协作学习(1997—2006年)和数字时代在线学习(2007—2016年)。本文最后指出对本领域和教育技术其他领域的文献(包括非英语期刊、专著和会议论文集)进行内容分析能给全球实践和探究社区呈现一个有价值的研究和学术概况。
A content analysis of abstracts and titles of 3,674 full papers in Computers & Education published between 1976 and 2016 was conducted in order to identify and analyze: a) their thematic and conceptual flow, b) how these reflected the evolving technologies and theories and c) how the research topics and concepts semantically related to each other. Abstracts and titles can be considered appropriate for such conceptual analysis since they are lexically dense and focus on the core issues presented in articles. Based on a relational concept analysis using a text-mining tool, the study revealed that over the course of these 40 years, the articles progressed through four distinct stages, reflecting major developments in educational technology and theories of learning with media: the advancement and growth of computer-based instruction(1976-1986); stand-alone multimedia learning(1987-1996); networked computers as tools for collaborative learning(1997-2006); and online learning in a digital age(2007-2016).The paper concludes by suggesting that such mapping and analysis of the literature in this and other fields of educational technology, including non-English language journals, books and conference proceedings, can provide a valuable overview of research and scholarship for communities of practice and inquiry around the globe.
