Abstract

This study aims to explore the challenges of preparing an adaptive vocational curriculum in the Society 5.0 era by analyzing trends in subject areas, researcher productivity, publication years, and countries, using Scopus-indexed data processed with VOSViewer. Results indicate that publications on “Vocational and Education” accumulated 279 citations from 1994 to 2024, with the peak number of publications occurring in 2019 at 29 articles. The United States leads in the number of published articles, while the most productive researchers are Mulder R. H. and Nurtanto, M., each contributing three publications. Title trend analysis reveals three clusters of ongoing research interests, including education, training, curriculum, teaching, learning, engineering, ethics, professional education, universities, and program evaluation. The main challenge in developing an adaptive vocational curriculum for Society 5.0 is fostering collaboration between government, industry, and educational institutions through the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) approach, alongside integrating digital technology effectively into vocational learning processes.
