TREN PENELITIAN PENDIDIKAN BIOLOGI 2012-2017: ANALISIS KONTEN PAPER DI JURNAL TERSELEKSI DARI INDEKS PUBLIKASI INDONESIA AbstrakArtikel ini telah menjelaskan kajian tentang tren penelitian di bidang penelitian pendidikan biologi di Indonesia sepanjang tahun 2012-2017. Studi ini telah menganalisis artikel-artikel yang telah dipublikasikan di jurnal ilmiah yang telah diindeks di Indonesia Publication Index. Pada bagian pendahuluan penelitian, kami telah menemukan hanya empat jurnal yang memiliki skop secara spesifik di bidang pembelajaran biologi. Keempat jurnal tersebut adalah Journal of Biology Education, Bioedu, Bioedukasi dan Didaktika Biologi. Dalam keempat jurnal ini kami juga telah menemukan 547 artikel yang telah dipublikasikan sejak tahun 2012-2017. Semua artikel ini telah diunduh dan dilakukan analisis konten. Analisis konten dilakukan mengacu kepada tujuh aspek yaitu topik biologi, subjek penelitian, metode/desain penelitian, elemen penelitian, alat pengumpul  data, jenis dan ukuran sampel dan teknik analisis data. Data yang telah diperoleh, telah dianalisis dengan statistik deskriptif dan telah ditampilkan dalam bentuk tabel dan grafik. Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah tren penelitian di bidang penelitian pendidikan biologi di Indonesia sepanjang tahun 2012-2017 dibedakan menjadi tujuh kategori yaitu topik biologi adalah bentuk dan fungsi hewan, subjek penelitian adalah pengajaran dan pembelajaran, metode/desain penelitian adalah eksperimen, elemen penelitian adalah kognitif, alat pengumpul  data adalah tes prestasi belajar, jenis sampel adalah siswa-siswa sekolah menengah atas dan ukuran sampel adalah 31-100 dan teknik analisis data adalah teknik kuantitatif..AbstractThis article was to describe research trends in Biology Education Research (BER) in Indonesia across year 2012-2017. This study was conducted by descriptive quantitative, with a content analysis the article that has been published in scientific journals that indexed in the Indonesia publication index. The content analysis were refer to sevent subjects were biology topics, teaching and learning, research design/methods, research element, data collection tools, samples and sample sizes and technique of the data analysis. The data obtained were analyzed with descriptive statistics and displayed in tables and graphs. We founded that only four journals have been scope specifically in the biology learning. The four journals were Journal of Biology Education, Bioedu, Bioedukasi and Didaktika Biologi. In theses journals, we also found 547 articles published from 2012-2017. All of these articles were downloaded and all of theses articles were subjected to content analysis. The result of the study showed that research trends BER in Indonesia across the year 2012-2017 were devide on seven categorizes such as; biology topics was animal form and function, teaching and learning was subject matter, research design/methods was quantitative experimental design, research element was cognitive, data collection tools was achievement test, samples was the students at Senior High School (SMA) and the size of samples was between 31-100 and technique of the data analysis was quantitative method. The implication of this study has implicated that to be an information for the researcher being conduct their researchs. The result of this study also will be contributed for the teachers and educator in teaching and learning of research of methodology in biology education.

Study Context

Biology education research (BER) is a growing field, as evidenced by the increasing number of publications in CBE—Life Sciences Education ( LSE) and expanding participation at the Society for the Advancement of Biology Education Research (SABER) annual meetings. To facilitate an introspective and reflective discussion on how research within LSE and at SABER has matured, we conducted a content analysis of LSE research articles ( n = 339, from 2002 to 2015) and SABER abstracts ( n = 652, from 2011 to 2015) to examine three related intraresearch parameters: research questions, study contexts, and methodologies. Qualitative data analysis took a combination of deductive and inductive approaches, followed by statistical analyses to determine the correlations among different parameters. We identified existing research questions, study contexts, and methodologies in LSE articles and SABER abstracts and then compared and contrasted these parameters between the two data sources. LSE articles were most commonly guided by descriptive research questions, whereas SABER abstracts were most commonly guided by causal research questions. Research published in LSE and presented at SABER both prioritize undergraduate classrooms as the study context and quantitative methodologies. In this paper, we examine these research trends longitudinally and discuss implications for the future of BER as a scholarly field.

“Doğadaki çocuk, soyu tehlike altında olan bir türdür ve çocukların sağlığı ile yeryüzünün sağlığı birbirine sıkı sıkıya bağlıdır.” R.Louv. Değişen yaşam tarzı ve ilerleyen teknoloji insanların hem doğayı algılamalarında hem de doğayla olan ilişkilerinde etkili olmuş, doğa ile insan arasındaki ilişki neredeyse kopma noktasına gelmiştir; bu da günümüzdeki çevre sorunlarının giderek artmasına, insanı hem psikolojik hem de fizyolojik olarak olumsuz etkileyen bir süreç yaşanmasına sebebiyet vermiştir (Tuğun, Uzunboylu & Özdamlı, 2017). Buradan yola çıkarak Birleşmiş Milletler çevre gündemini 2017 yılını doğa ile insan arasındaki bağın oluşturulması temeline dayandırmıştır. Bu çalışmanın da amacı, hem çevre sorunlarını çözebilme anlamında hem de insan ile doğa arasındaki bağı yeniden kurup daha sağlıklı, daha çevreci bireyler yetiştirmek kapsamında önemli, etkin bir çevre eğitimi yaklaşımı olan doğa eğitimini de içine alan yer/yöre temelli ve sınıfdışı çevre eğitiminin son 5 yıllık süreçteki ilerleyişini incelenmesine yönelik bir içerik analizi yapıp methodoloji, konu alanı, veri toplama, veri analizi vs. boyutlarına ilişkin yönelimleri belirlemektir. Çalışma sonucunda yer/yöre temelli ve sınıfdışı çevre eğitimi alanlarında scopus veri tabanında yapılan tarama ve eleme sonucu ulaşılan makaleler incelendiğinde en çok araştırmanın 19 ile ABD’ de yapıldığı; en çok çalışmanın ise 15 ile 2014 yılında üretildiği; 3 ile en çok Edinburgh üniversitesinde ve Environmental Education Research dergisinde yayın çıktığı görülmüştür. Anahtar kelimelerde en çok kullanılan ‘’çevre eğitimi’’ iken, ‘’sınıfdışı eğitim’’ onu takip etmektedir. Çalışmalarda genel olarak İngilizce yazım dili iken en çok sosyal bilimler alanında akabinde çevre bilimleri alanında çalışma yapıldığı; SPSS analiz programının, likert ölçek veri toplama aracının kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Çevre Eğitimi, yer/yöre temelli çevre eğitimi, sınıfdışı çevre eğitimi.

Educational research often requires mixing different research methodologies to strengthen findings, better contextualize or explain results, or minimize the weaknesses of a single method. This article provides practical guidelines on how to conduct such research in biology education, with a focus on mixed-methods research (MMR) that uses both quantitative and qualitative inquiries. Specifically, the paper provides an overview of mixed-methods design typologies most relevant in biology education research. It also discusses common methodological issues that may arise in mixed-methods studies and ways to address them. The paper concludes with recommendations on how to report and write about MMR.
