Abstract:

 This study aims to determine the orientation of the articles and theses that on chemistry textbooks approved by the Ministry of National Education in their research through descriptive content analysis. In the research, 73 studies in total published between 2003 and 2021 were analysed in terms of descriptive content through document analysis as qualitative research. In the research, the data were collected with the coding form created by the researcher. Findings were shown in graphics and tables as frequency and evaluated in detail. Considering the values with the highest frequency values of the research results; It has been determined that the studies on chemistry textbooks in Turkey were mostly produced in 2003, 2010 and 2011, they were studied with students at the 9th grade level, and the studies that did not specify the sample group were the majority. In addition, a single book was chosen as the sample and the number of people was not specified in the studies, the most tests were used as a data collection tool, most of the articles were mostly indexed in UlakbimTR Index, the most theses were produced in Balıkesir University, and most of theses were in the Institution of Educational Sciences written has been determined. Considering that the results of the research will guide the researchers who will conduct new studies in this context, some suggestions were made in line with the findings obtained.

 Bu araştırmanın amacı, çalışmalarında Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı onaylı kimya ders kitapları üzerinde yapılan makale ve tezlerin betimsel içerik analizini yaparak eğilimlerini belirlemektir. Bu amaçla doküman inceleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır, Araştırmada 2003-2021 yılları arasında yayımlanmış makaleler ve tezler incelenerek, toplam 73 çalışma için nitel araştırma kapsamında betimsel içerik analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırmada veriler, araştırmacı tarafından oluşturulan kodlama formu ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular, frekans olarak grafik ve tablolarda gösterilmiş ve ayrıntılı olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarının frekans değerlerinin en fazla olduğu değerler göz önüne alındığında; Türkiyede kimya ders kitapları üzerinde yapılan çalışmaların en çok 2003, 2010 ve 2011 yıllarında üretildiği, 9. Sınıf seviyesindeki öğrenciler ile çalışıldığı, örneklem grubunun belirtilmediği çalışmaların çoğunlukta olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bunun yanında örneklem olarak en çok tek kitap seçildiği ve çalışmalarda kişi sayısının çoğunlukla belirtilmediği, veri toplama aracı olarak en çok testin kullanıldığı, üretilen makalelerin en çok UlakbimTR Dizinde tarandığı, en fazla tezin Balıkesir Üniversitesinde üretildiği ve tezlerin en çok Eğitim Bilimleri enstitülerinde yazıldığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarının bu kapsamda yeni çalışma yapacak olan araştırmacılara yol göstereceği düşünülerek, elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda bazı önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
