LACHEL, Gustavo  and  NARDI, Roberto. SOME TRENDS OF PUBLICATIONS RELATED TO ASTRONOMY IN PHYSICS EDUCATION JOURNALS IN THE LAST DECADES. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2010, vol.12, n.2, pp.225-238. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172010120214.

This paper was aimed at the analysis of the publications relat ed to Astronomy in the last decades, present in two Physics Education journals in Brazil: Caderno Brasileiro de Ensino de Física and Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física. Through the analysis of their contents it was possible to realize some trends in the Astronomy Education, such as: the frequen cy of papers of this area in these journals; the academic background of their authors, the subjects related to Astronomy and the approaches which appear in the papers analyzed. We connected some of these facts to the growth of the Astronomy Education research in the country.

Keywords : Astronomy education; physics education; content analysis; research; state of art..
