摘要：The aim of this study is to determine what trends Turkish biology education studies indicate. To achieve this aim, the researchers examined online databases of the Higher Education Council and open access archieves of graduate thesis in web sites of Turkish universities. Finally, totally 138 graduate theses were elicited to analyze in regard to following matrix: year, research interest, research methodology and sample. The results show that descriptive study for research interest and survey for research methodolody are highly dominant in the graduate theses under investigation. Also, even though learning involves an interaction amongst student, teacher, parent and administor, there is no study on investigating what the student parents think about their learning responsibility. It is suggested that further studies should be undertaken to emerge Turkish biology education trend.
