This analysis aims to identify and map the development and trends of special education research conducted by Indonesian researchers through a bibliometric approach, including publication productivity, collaboration patterns, citation dynamics, and thematic structure. Document selection was carried out using the PRISMA method using the keyword strategy “TITLE-ABS-KEY (“special education”) AND AFFILCOUNTRY (Indonesia)” within the Scopus database, resulting in a total of 101 documents being analyzed to ensure the substantive relevance and academic contributions of Indonesian researchers. Further analysis used the R Program and VOSviewer to generate primary dataset information, map keyword networks and clusters, and identify topic novelties in the field of special education in Indonesia. The bibliometric analysis concludes that special education research in Indonesia has shown a significant growth trend, is collaborative, and has become increasingly thematically diverse in recent years. Cluster mapping and keyword visualization reveal that the focus of studies extends beyond disability to include technology integration, strengthening pedagogical foundations, and the dynamics of inclusive assessment and practice. Furthermore, the novelty analysis indicates the emergence of new themes such as “Early Childhood Education”, “Scientific Literacy”, and “Autism Spectrum Disorder”, which signal a more specific direction for research development. However, integration with the deep learning approach, a priority of national education policy, remains underexplored. Therefore, more systematic and strategic follow-up research is needed to strengthen academic contributions while aligning with the educational transformation agenda in Indonesia.

Objective: The present research aims to analyze the development, trends, and intellectual structure of research on the role of local wisdom approaches in character building among students through a bibliometric study. Method: Bibliometric analysis using Scopus-indexed publication data for the 2014–2024 period. Data were obtained through a search using the keywords "local wisdom" and "character", resulting in 87 documents that met the analysis criteria. Results: Data processing was carried out using Microsoft Excel for frequency analysis and descriptive statistics, and VOSviewer to map collaboration networks and keyword relationships. The results show that publications on local wisdom and character education experienced a significant upward trend, peaking in 2020. Indonesia had the highest number of publications, while Ganesha University of Education and I Wayan Suastra were the most productive institutions and authors, respectively. Keyword network analysis identified three main clusters: character education and learning, local culture-based character education, and character building through local wisdom. The findings also indicate that the integration of local culture into character education has become an increasingly dominant theme since 2021. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of using local wisdom values as a contextual character education strategy relevant to students' cultural identities. Novelty: Presentation of a comprehensive bibliometric mapping of the relationship between local wisdom and character education, while also identifying trends, key actors, and remaining research opportunities in this field.

The objective of this work is to present a scientometric analysis that identifies growth patterns, collaboration networks, and the main research trends in the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in remote education. A bibliometric analysis was conducted on articles indexed in Web of Science and Scopus between 2015 and 2025. The analysis considered publication volume, authors, countries, and journals. The findings indicate a precipitous surge, marked by an accelerated growth of 351.44% in scientific production, with the year 2023 standing out as a particularly salient period. The United States has emerged as a predominant contributor, with a production of 34 publications and a total of 837 citations, positioning it as a leading actor in international collaboration. In contrast, China and South Africa have each published 22 and 13 publications, respectively, and have received 227 and 206 citations, respectively, reflecting their role as significant contributors to the field. The journals Education and Information Technologies and Computers and Education: Artificial Intelligence merit particular attention for their eight and seven publications, which boast impact factors of 1.65 and 5.22, respectively. The analysis of the authors' positions establishes Sevnarayan K. as one of the most influential, with 4 published articles and 161 citations. Moon J. exhibits the highest effective size among the leading authors, suggesting a comparatively less redundant ego network rather than a demonstrated intermediation role. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the field's evolution, highlighting its transition from the realm of technical innovation to the domain of critical evaluation. Furthermore, it identifies potential avenues for future research endeavors aimed at enhancing the integration of AI within the educational sector.
