Declining or Waning

While EDMETIC continues to explore a wide range of educational technology themes, some topics have seen a decline in publication frequency, indicating a potential shift in focus or reduced interest in these areas.
  1. Traditional Teaching Methods:
    Research exploring conventional pedagogical approaches appears to be declining, as the journal increasingly prioritizes innovative and technology-driven methodologies.
