Abstrakt

The main objective of the present paper is to capture the developments and trends in research on the education of a generational cohort of digital natives using Artificial Intelligence (AI). The starting point of the study is the application of a scientific mapping approach in the research part of the paper. The first phase of the investigation consists of collecting data, i.e., scientific publications from the Web of Science database, and sorting them according to the PRISMA 2020 development scheme. The second phase focuses on the analysis and visualization of the obtained metadata on scientific publications using the VOSviewer software. The obtained records are analyzed based on bibliometric characteristics, namely the co-occurrence of words in abstracts, titles, and author keywords, related to the education of the selected generational cohort. By identifying research trends on the education of Generation Z through artificial intelligence, the study has the potential to stimulate further research on the topic or to highlight specific research directions or under-researched areas within this field.
