Multiple Representations in Physics Learning: A Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

The application of multiple representation approach in physics learning has been adopted by several researchers, especially to improve the ability and achieve effective learning. The use of multiple representation approach in physics learning over the past few years has provided good results on student learning outcomes, including being able to improve and develop abstract physics concepts, scientific complex skills, metacognition skills, and problem solving. This research is the result of a review based on bibliometric analysis of multiple representations in physics learning. Data was obtained based on Scopus sources from 2013 to 2023, then obtained data as many as 121 articles which then the data was processed using RStudio and VOSViewer. Based on the results of the analysis using Rstudio and VOSViewer, it also displays other information such as year, country, author, institution, journal, co-word analysis, co-occurrence network, and visual density on occurrence. The results of this study provide a framework of the current trends of multiple representations in physics learning both in the present and some indicators that can be used as opportunities for future research.
