Toman, Ufuk
This thematic content analysis done about teaching biotechnology which is researched in Turkey is conducted with 64 articles, from a total of 45 magazines published in Turkey from 2003 to 2018. An analysis of the research trends of Turkish researchers based on teaching biotechnology. In this research, it has been tried to guide the researchers by determining the trends in the field and research methods frequently used(changes according to publication years and languages, what kind of research problems on qualitative research subjects are emphasised, what research methods are used, data collection tools, sample or working group, data analysis methods). In studies conducted to investigate the biotechnology education in Turkey, it shows that there is not adequate studies to address the issue of biotechnology education. Biotechnology and its sub-rules, cloning, genetically modified organisms, biotechnological vaccines, genetic engineering and microbiology may require more space in curricula at early learning levels.

Toman, Ufuk
The purpose of this study is to examine the learning outcomes in the curriculum of Biology course in terms of reflective thinking skills. It is a documentary qualitative research. The target area of the study is the curriculum of the Biology course in secondary school level. Biology course curriculum of grades 9-12 was included in the research without any sampling in the research. Data collection method of the research is document analysis, and data analysis method is content and document analysis. We find that the vast majority of the learning outcomes of the units and subject areas in the biology course curriculum are in the practical reflection level. While the learning outcomes of the biology course curriculum are determined, mental skills need to be taken into account.
