Özet

The purpose of this study is to investigate the papers published between 2000-2015 in the field of physical sciences education at primary school level. A total of 114 papers from 38 journals were examined via content analysis. Due to the fact that the number of studies in the field of physical sciences education at primary school level conducted before the year 2000 is very low (5), these studies were not evaluated. Out of 10380 papers published between 2000 and 2015, 114 of them were dealt with. It was ascertained that most of these papers were published in 2013 (15.79%). The smallest numbers were 0 in 2000 and 1 in 2001. In terms of the research patterns, it was found out that these papers were mostly scanning studies. It was seen that the papers that were studied dealt with mostly primary school students, followed by bachelor’s degree students doing their degree on primary school teaching. It was also observed that the studies that adopted student and teacher views and included the knowledge and success levels of students came to the fore as research subjects. Scale/inventory, success tests and surveys were mostly preferred as the data collection tools. In the light of the findings, it can be put forward that this study can guide the researchers that intend to conduct studies on primary school level physical sciences education. © The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology.
