“…More extensive studies underline the iterative nature of search processes and allow more than one search query, and thus, iterative query reformulation ( Rieh and Xie, 2006 ; Collins-Thompson et al, 2016 ). Studies analyzed typical reformulation behavior (e.g., Wildemuth, 2004 ; Jansen et al, 2007 ; Liu et al, 2010 ; Hu et al, 2013 ; Tibau et al, 2018 , 2019 ; Wildemuth et al, 2018 ).…”

Using a Web search engine is one of today’s most frequent activities. Exploratory search activities which are carried out in order to gain knowledge are conceptualized and denoted as Search as Learning (SAL). In this paper, we introduce a novel framework model which incorporates the perspective of both psychology and computer science to describe the search as learning process by reviewing recent literature. The main entities of the model are the learner who is surrounded by a specific learning context, the interface that mediates between the learner and the information environment, the information retrieval (IR) backend which manages the processes between the interface and the set of Web resources, that is, the collective Web knowledge represented in resources of different modalities. At first, we provide an overview of the current state of the art with regard to the five main entities of our model, before we outline areas of future research to improve our understanding of search as learning processes.

“…Exploratory search requires the user's cognitive processing and interpretation through scanning/viewing, comparing, and making qualitative judgments (Marchionini, 2006). To formalize the states covered, some Information Seeking models were used, such as Marchionini's Exploratory Search Model (Marchionini, 2006), Information Foraging (Pirolli and Card, 1999), Berrypicking (Bates et al, 1989), and Exploratory Search Knowledge Intensive Process taxonomy (Tibau et al, 2019b). For instance, Tibau et al (2018) investigate exploratory search by applying a model capable of assisting the visualization of search patterns and identifying best practices associated with users' decision-making processes.…”

Search engines are great allies in our daily educational tasks. However, usually, these tools are prepared only for factual learning and are less effective when dealing with more complex learning tasks. Thus, in recent years, Searching as Learning (SAL) research area has been developing from proposals that target the main challenges involving learning during the search process. The effectiveness of educational technologies in providing appropriate instructions depends directly on the input information. Gathering information on what should be taken into account in a search as a learning process can support the development of specialized search engines to support learning. Therefore, we performed a systematic mapping of the literature in order to gather this information, raising the dimensions and their associated variables.
