Análisis bibliométrico de la revista RIIEP (Revista Interamericana de Investigación y Pedagogía), Volúmenes 7 - 5

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 2012-2014, in volumes 7, 6 and 5. 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, a coherence is evidenced between the editorial line proposed by the journal and the publications of research articles carried out during the years 2012-2014, in volumes 7,6 and 5, whose thematic focuses revolve around education and culture, predominantly the study of gender and equality. In the 3 volumes analyzed, the recurrent practice of the study of discourses and analysis of institutional practices in educational entities is evident. On the other hand, teacher training and academic performance are part of the main thematic axes of the journal. Finally, ICTs appear as a topic of interest, without much concern for virtuality, which will be more relevant in the following publications.
