The COVID-19 pandemic has considerably affected e-learning, leading to a surge in research output from 2020 to 2022. This increase is attributed to the rapid transition to online education, presenting challenges and opportunities for teachers. The shift to online education has also prompted the exploration of innovative approaches and educators’ as well as learners’ perceptions and experiences in e-learning. In this study, the research output on e-learning from 2020 to 2022 has been analyzed to reveal the major research trends. The study employs bibliometric techniques to explore the data retrieved from Scopus. Particularly, an analysis of metadata such as the geographical distribution of publications, authorship, keywords, and the impact of works has been conducted. The results reveal the most influential authors and works, as well as the emerging topics in the field.
