New realities in the education field? Keys to understanding the role of intelligent educational robots
-
Pedro Baena-Luna
Abstract
Using robots is recognized as an innovative tool for improving learning processes. This is why many of the works that have addressed these realities have highlighted how it is a new technique that could change current educational approaches and facilitate students’ learning in different environments. This chapter aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature that connects the relationship between the realities of intelligent educational robots in educational environments. The scientific databases consulted were Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus. From an initial number of 47 and 820 works, respectively, once the results were unified, 169 were finally selected for analysis. The information was processed using the Bibliometrix tool, which provided information on the annual production and analysis of journals, authors, documents, keywords, etc. The results will allow us to identify the principal research trends in this area, establish relationships between them, and detect future research opportunities.
