Abstract—During the COVID-19 pandemic, the process of
Indonesia language learning is held in online in which it needs
supporting technological tools and innovative learning
approaches or models to create interactive and interesting
learning process of Indonesia language. A bibliometric analysis
was used to provide the bibliographic and bibliometric review
related to the emerging trends of technology-based foreign
language learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. VOSviewer
and Publish or Perish (PoP) were some software employed to
analyze the documents published between 2020 and 2022 from
the Scopus database. The results revealed that there were 100
publications and 199 citations regarding the use of technology
in foreign language learning in which the development of the
number of publications and citations relatively fluctuated.
Digital platforms such as learning management systems and
social media applications were the trending technologies
supporting the foreign language learning process. Subsequently,
the trending foreign language learning in the COVID-19
pandemic implemented distance or online learning involving
blended learning, mobile learning, or remote learning.
Therefore, this study specifically implicates the Indonesian
language learning in which teachers or lecturers can implement
distance or online learning in teaching the Indonesian language
to prevent the deployment of COVID-19 supported by digital
