Content Analysis of Thesis Made on the Success of Geometry and at the National Thesis Center

In this research, it is aimed to reveal the general tendency toward the subject by examining the graduate studies related to geometry achievement in various dimensions. Accordingly, descriptive content analysis technique was used in the research. The study sample consists of 47 postgraduate thesis studies. Each of the theses was subjected to content analysis and data were obtained in seven categories: imprint, type of thesis, purpose, method, sampling techniques, data collection tools, and results and suggestions. According to the results obtained, it has been observed that at least one thesis study has been made on the subject every year, except for 2020, the majority of theses are master’s thesis, and a few thesis studies have been carried out in a few universities on the subject. In addition, it has been understood that the theses have a rich vocabulary in the keywords section and the number of theses in English is quite low. In addition, it has been seen that mostly middle school and high school students were studied in the theses examined, random and convenient sampling techniques were frequently preferred, and the studies were mostly carried out with experimental methods. In the theses examined, the effects of contemporary teaching methods-techniques, concrete materials, and educational software on geometry achievement were examined and their positive effects were revealed.
