U.S. Institutional Research Productivity in Major Science Education Research Journals: Top 30 for 2000's
Barrow, Lloyd H.; Tang, Nai-en
Journal of Education and Learning, v2 n1 p222-229 2013
VonAalst (2010) used Google Scholar to identify the top four science education research journals: "Journal of Research in Science Teaching," "Science Education," "International Journal of Science Education," and "Journal of Science Teacher Education." U.S. institutional productivity for 2000-2009 for the above journals was the data for the study. The major domestic science education programs were identified for raw and weighted counts. For the top 10, there was a 100% agreement with different ranks while there was only a 60% agreement among the bottom 10. These results demonstrated that dominant science education faculty published their research in multiple empirical journals.
