Abstract
ABSTRACT Journal of Teaching in Travel & Tourism (JTTT) is a widely acknowledged journal for its contribution to scientific knowledge development in travel and tourism education. Understanding the developmental trajectory of JTTT in the context of tourism and hospitality education is highly relevant for academic research and practice. This study sets out to present the scientific development, productivity, influence, and research trends of JTTT from 2001 to 2019 through bibliometric analysis. A sample of 407 documents extracted from the Scopus database were analysed with techniques such as descriptive, conceptual structure, intellectual structure and social structure analyses. The study uses the scientometric tool “bibliometrix” written in R programming language for science mapping. Findings from the analysis identified that JTTT is a leading tourism journal in the field of travel and tourism education focusing on a wide range of topics, with publications from various authors, institutions, and countries.
