URREA-SOLANO, Mayra; MARTINEZ-ROIG, Rosabel  and  MERMA-MOLINA, Gladys. Digital skills in Ibero-America in times of COVID-19: bibliometric analysis . Rev. iberoam. tecnol. educ. educ. tecnol. [online]. 2022, n.31, pp.133-145. ISSN 1851-0086.

The start of the pandemic caused, among other effects, a profound digital transformation of teaching and learning processes worldwide. Since then, and as a consequence of the obligatory virtualization, the study of digital skills has aroused growing interest. Therefore, this research set out to analyse the Ibero-American scientific production on digital competences in times of COVID-19 (2020-2021), published in 3 databases (Scopus, Redalyc and Redib). Sixty-two documents were obtained and analyzed on the basis of a broad set of bibliometric indicators, such as temporal production, production index per journal, co-author index, country of institutional affiliation, language of the document, type of study and methodological approach, among others. According to the results, there is a clear trend towards collaborative works, with Spain standing out as the leading producer country. Furthermore, there is a clear prevalence of quantitative empirical research. The main focus is on the study of digital competences in teaching, especially among university teaching staff. This analysis documents the scientific production in this field and serves as a reference for future research on digital literacy programmes in Ibero-America.
