Abstract

Higher education has been transformed by technology over the past two decades, and teaching and learning online has become considerably more prominent. We examine the extent to which journals in the discipline mirror the rising use of technology in the classroom in the frequency of articles they publish on teaching and learning with technology, with a major focus on online teaching. We find a relatively small share of articles focus on pedagogical technologies, including online teaching, and their impact on student learning. Our findings indicate that in light of the rapid and broad adoption of technology by college teachers, there is much opportunity to expand research on how large numbers of political science students learn in technology-infused classrooms, including online instruction.
