Analysis of Research Topics Trends in Indonesian and Global Education (Systematic Literature Review)

Education in the modern era faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities, driven by rapid technological advances and shifting social paradigms. Trends in educational research, both globally and locally in Indonesia, increasingly point to a shift toward technology integration, personalized learning, and an emphasis on educational inclusivity. This paper’s analysis of scientific literature reveals several key themes dominating educational discourse, including the role of artificial intelligence (AI), the use of social media and e-learning, the urgency of inclusive and equitable education, the implementation of an adaptive independent curriculum, vocational education, and various forms of technology integration and contextual learning strategies. This paper will examine these trends by referencing a series of relevant research findings to provide a comprehensive overview of the current direction of educational development and its future opportunities. The study of topics trending in global and local research was conducted using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to identify, summarize, and interpret all available and relevant research related to current educational trends.
