The advancements of technology have allowed digital transformation to reach all productive sectors, including the education sector and its members. This transformation is linked to emerging technologies, the digitalization of processes and resources, and the demand for users to upgrade to the latest technological updates. This research aims to analyze digital transformation and media literacy publications that impact higher education. Its purpose is to identify the types of research and topics they address and explore the scope of digital transformation in higher education institutions. The systematic mapping method was used to analyze 298 articles published in two databases, Scopus and Web of Science (WoS). Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to select the articles that could be included in this research. The results show that the largest proportion of articles were found in Scopus, and used both qualitative and quantitative empirical research methods, followed by theoretical-conceptual methods and, to a lesser extent, mixed methods. Likewise, the publications originated in five continents, and the Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy had the largest number of publications, with 14. Forty-two percent of the studies were classified in the strategy category, with the most mentioned topic being digital pedagogies. This research provides a perspective on digital transformation studies in higher education institutions and their internalization approaches. This research may be of value to trainers, students, decision-makers, and researchers interested in transformation, educommunication, and educational innovation.

技术的进步使数字化转型能够覆盖所有生产部门，包括教育部门及其成员。这种转变与新兴技术、流程和资源的数字化以及用户升级到最新技术更新的需求有关。本研究旨在分析影响高等教育的数字化转型和媒体素养出版物。其目的是确定他们所涉及的研究类型和主题，并探索高等教育机构数字化转型的范围。系统映射方法用于分析在 Scopus 和 Web of Science (WoS) 两个数据库中发表的 298 篇文章。应用纳入和排除标准来选择可以纳入本研究的文章。结果表明，在 Scopus 中发现的文章比例最大，并使用了定性和定量的实证研究方法，其次是理论概念方法，其次是混合方法。同样，出版物起源于五大洲，Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy的出版物数量最多，有 14 篇。42% 的研究被归入战略类别，其中提及最多的主题是数字教学法。这项研究为高等教育机构的数字化转型研究及其内部化方法提供了一个视角。这项研究可能对对转型、教育传播和教育创新感兴趣的培训师、学生、决策者和研究人员有价值。
