摘要
Counts of key words from summaries of articles in ERIC showed trends in the topics of science education research from 1965 to 1995. Analysis of articles in the 1975, 1985, and 1995 volumes of Research in Science Education showed trends in the style of research. The move is from brief well-designed and controlled laboratory-style experiments to lengthy observations and descriptions of classrooms. Reliance on inferential statistics declined; interviews became common. The proportion of women researchers rose. It is asserted that research became more relevant to practice.
