“…The final sample of publications was 240 (n = 240), 98 belonging to the Web of Science database and 142 to the Scopus database. This is a descriptive study based on the observation, systematization, and analysis of ten variables, taking into account other bibliometric studies in the field of education [44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51]. The time period considered for the bibliometric approach is linked to the date of enactment of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015.…”

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Quality education is understood as one of the most powerful and proven drivers for ensuring sustainable development, which can be applied in various educational contexts, formal and non-formal, and which can generate multiple benefits for the general public. Given its relevance, this article presents a bibliometric approach of the scientific production generated around Sustainable Development Goal (SPG) 4 that seeks to “Ensure inclusive and quality education for all and promote lifelong learning” as a priority objective of 2030 Agenda. To develop this research, a literature search was conducted in the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The final sample was 240 publications. The data were analyzed around ten variables: year of publication, type of document, area of indexation, periodical publications, most productive authors, institutions, countries, languages, most cited articles, and key words. The findings of this study indicate that quality education, within the Sustainable Development Goals, is gaining relevance, with 2019 being the year with the highest scientific production. This is a growing theme that is transmitted mainly through articles and papers in English, and there are no institutions, research groups or authors with a broad scientific background and production. The conclusion is that this bibliometric approach is important and necessary to know the reality of scientific production on this subject and to be able to make proposals and lines of research for its development.

Continuance Intention of Augmented Reality Textbooks in Basic Design Course

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Basic Design course can help students understand design principles and visual art elements It is a compulsory basic course for the department of art and design in many universities. In recent years, Augmented Reality (AR) technology has found its way into the field of design education and has become a popular textbook tool in teaching courses. There are not many pieces of research on the application of AR in design courses. Therefore, this study attempts to explore the factors that affect students’ acceptance of AR textbooks in Basic Design course and their continuance intention for AR textbooks. This study first focused on students with experience in using AR textbooks. Open-ended questions were used to collect factors that allow AR textbooks to be used in the design curriculum; then questionnaire surveys and factor analysis were conducted and the research hypotheses are presented. Then, the research hypotheses were verified through reliability and validity as well as structural equation modeling. Three factors and 15 items for students to accept AR textbooks in the Basic Design course were summarized in the research results, including the three factors named “Visual Attraction”, “Knowledge-ability”, and “Situational Experience”. The analysis of differences showed significant differences in gender among these three factors and no significant differences between grades and departments. Also, it was found from the analysis results of the structural equation model that the factors of “Visual Attraction” and “Knowledge-ability” both had a positive effect on the continuance intention, of which “Knowledge-ability” was the most important influencing factor. The results of this study can help the application and development of AR textbooks in the Basic Design course.

“…Finally, in phase 4 (included), the data referring to the "all years-2019" period were selected-that is, from the first published article on the research topic (1968) to the last full year (2019). In this last phase, 93 The search selected documents from the subfields "title, abstract and keywords", in the period that contains the publication of the first article on the research topic until the last full year (52 years), as has been applied successfully in other analyses [69][70][71]. The representativeness of the sample is based on the proven quality of the Scopus database in relation to the indexing protocol and with the systematic procedures of the search criteria.…”

Unequal economic growth shapes food systems. Nutrition problems incorporate inappropriate practices, so nutrition education is key to empowering consumers to choose healthy foods. However, increasing the accessibility of healthy diets is related to reducing the cost of nutritious foods. The accounting management of healthy nutrition should allow for optimal global decision-making. The evolution of scientific production and global research trends on this topic between 1968 and 2019 have been studied. Statistical and mathematical methods have been applied to 1738 documents from the Scopus database. The results provided data on the agents that participate in the development of the theme. Data reveal an exponential trend, especially in the previous decade, with more than 50% of scientific production. Future lines of research have been identified: investment in health systems; green label education; early impact of food insecurity; WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) nutrition education; food waste audit; and ecological footprint of food. The central contribution of the study has been to detect the main future directions of research, providing critical points that will allow us to identify the themes of future publications, in addition to providing an instrument for decision-making carried out by the research funding sponsors.
