Scientometric analysis of scientific outputs in the field of media and information literacy
Due to the necessity of the relationship between the university and society, the aim of this study was a scientometrics analysis of researches in the field of media and information literacy (MIL) in strengthening the relationship between universities and social space.
In this scientometric study, the statistical population was all articles published in the field of MIL as well as relationship between university and society in the Web of Science (WoS) from 2010 to 2019. The VOS viewer was used to draw a co-authorship map of all organizations, density map of countries and word co-occurrence map.
The highest and lowest scientific outputs related to this field were in 2017 and 2014, respectively. According to the results of VOS viewer software, there were 136 nodes and 3084 links in the map. Based on frequency clustering, the topics of "Higher Education", "Types of Media Literacy Levels", "Technology" and "New Curriculum" were identified as thematic clusters in the field of MIL. Moreover, Spain, Mexico and Chile had the highest density in the co-authorship network of MIL documents, respectively. Cluster analysis of the co-authorship network of countries in the field of MIL and relationship between university and social space indicated that this network was composed of 6 distinct clusters.
The co-occurrence of various words including "community", "university" and "digital space" in drawing the scientific map demonstrates the importance and necessity of close relationship between society and university in the context of digital and media space.
