Tendencias de Educación Digital en La Primera Infancia: Análisis Bibliométrico y Revisión Sistemática
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este estudio analiza las tendencias de innovación social digital en la educación infantil mediante una revisión sistemática y un análisis bibliométrico, con el propósito de evaluar su impacto en el aprendizaje y la inclusión. La revisión se realizó siguiendo la metodología PRISMA y se complementó con un análisis bibliométrico en las bases de datos Web of Science y SCOPUS, seleccionando 21 estudios relevantes y empleando herramientas como VosViewer para identificar tendencias y redes de conocimiento. Los hallazgos muestran que, desde 2010, la producción científica en torno a la educación digital ha experimentado un crecimiento sostenido, alcanzando su punto más alto en 2021, con España, China y el Reino Unido como principales países productores. Se resalta la importancia de la familia en los procesos de alfabetización digital, aunque se observa la ausencia de estudios longitudinales que profundicen en este ámbito. Asimismo, se evidencian beneficios del pensamiento computacional para el desarrollo cognitivo, aunque su implementación se encuentra limitada por la escasa formación docente, mientras que la colaboración entre investigadores aún resulta incipiente. Estos resultados ponen de manifiesto la necesidad de fortalecer la capacitación de los docentes en el uso pedagógico de tecnologías digitales, promover la cooperación interdisciplinaria y equilibrar el uso de dispositivos con la interacción social para garantizar un desarrollo integral. En consecuencia, la educación infantil demanda el compromiso conjunto de familias, educadores y políticas públicas orientadas hacia una enseñanza inclusiva e innovadora.
