Abstract

This article consists of a mapping carried out in the main repositories for theses and dissertations between the years 2013 and 2019, intending to verify the presence of publications on Astronomy education. The aim is to answer the following research question: What are the methodological and thematic trends evidenced in these theses and dissertations? This is a qualitative and state-of-the-art type of research. There were 289 publications, of which 27 corresponded to Doctoral Theses and 262 to Master’s Dissertations. It is worth mentioning the growth in the number of publications in the period under review, the majority of them
focusing on High School level, and Content-Method, Formation of Concepts and Didactic Resources as the most frequent thematic focuses in the Theses and Dissertations analyzed.
