This content analysis adds to STEM Education research by highlighting trends in the subfields of STEM education and identifying at what educational levels this research has been conducted. Since their start, all published articles were analyzed from three international STEM education research journals—IJEMST, IJSE, and J-STEM. After logging the relevant information on a spreadsheet, analyzing the data, and looking at the results, the authors identified that technology and engineering education are still underrepresented in STEM education; that more than 50% of the research focused on only one of the four STEM silos; and that most research occurred in higher education settings.
