Abstract

Digital innovation and transformation provide opportunities in both education and workplace environments, raising the importance of digital competencies in an increasingly digitalized world. Such importance has been heightened by the recent COVID-19 outbreak. To explore the related discussions in the education literature, this article conducts a scientometric analysis of 782 articles collected from the Web of Science (WoS) database. By examining the main sources and keywords, it shows several cross-disciplinary research fronts that involves disciplines such as engineering, management, communication, etc., and topics such as collaboration, digital economy, digital platform, etc. Also, the digital transformation research has signaled a shift from technology to organization and people. The findings offer a preliminary roadmap for educators, researchers, and policymakers how more sustainable livelihood and life potentials can be achieved by harnessing digital potentials.
