Abstract

Introduction: In an increasingly interconnected society, digital skills are increasingly important in the education of the next generations. Therefore, it is necessary to know the main trends in this field of studies. Methods: This study conducts a trend visualisation analysis on digital competences in basic and secondary education, using the VOSviewer tool to map and visualise the relationships between authors, institutions, and research topics. Results: The visualisation reveals a significant increase in scholarly output related to digital competences, especially from 2020 onwards. Co-authorship networks and keyword co-occurrence highlight central nodes of collaboration and emerging themes in this field of study. Conclusions: The results underline the importance of an interdisciplinary approach and the need to strengthen digital competences in teacher education.
