Análisis bibliométrico de la revista RIIEP (Revista Interamericana de Investigación y Pedagogía), Volúmenes 4-2

Abstract

The Inter-American Journal of Research, Education and Pedagogy (RIIEP), was born in 2008 with the purpose of publishing original articles resulting from research, reflection and review articles on issues of education, pedagogy and cultural studies conducted by communities interested in social issues.

The purpose of this document is to perform a bibliometric analysis of the articles published for RIIEP during the period 2011-2009, in volumes 4, 3 and 2. This analysis is based on a review of the publications, where the thematic focuses and research methods used by the authors were taken into account, with the purpose of providing an overview of the contents published in the journal, topics of interest and social impact of the research.

As a conclusion, there is evidence of coherence between the editorial line proposed by the journal and the publications of research articles made during the years 2011-2009, in volumes 4,3 and 2, whose thematic focuses revolve around learning methods, teacher training and institutionalism, with a predominance of the study of pedagogical strategies.

In the three volumes analyzed, there is evidence of an interest in cultural studies, covering topics such as sociolinguistics or media and mediations in the academic environment. In addition, topics such as politics in education, ICT and academic performance, which despite losing incidence continues to be important, were covered.
