Virtual Learning; Virtual Training; Virtual InstructionAbstract
Technological advances have spanned teaching and learning in all its forms. Therefore, instruction and training are also part of studies documenting the use of Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) to determine the scope of virtual technologies in learning at all levels, from learning a subject topic in higher education to building a boat in technical and work education. This article has two purposes. First, to study the state of research on virtuality-mediated instructional processes through a bibliometric analysis of publications between 1997 and 2018 indexed in the SCOPUS© database. The second, to examine the main advances presented in peer-reviewed scientific literature and define the challenges for subsequent studies, mainly for instruction, training, and evaluation in the workplace. Based on our findings, we identified that the first steps about technology-mediated instruction research in the traffic air area have just emerged during recent times as a consequence of the lack of indexed publications on the subject in international databases. Besides, we established that research processes similar to the studies documented in this article could be carried out by using the tools available for instructional processes (simulators and software).
