Abstract

People must be qualified to adapt to developments resulting from the fast evolution of information and technology. This would be accomplished by incorporating technology into instruction. To survive in the world of science and technology, the disciplines that will continue to play a significant role in the future are Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). In this respect, several studies have been carried out on enhancing STEM education in colleges. This research aims to evaluate these studies and the trends used to define the scientific content criteria. The citation analysis method investigates STEM-related papers indexed in scholarly publications. A total number of 202 studies published between 2017 and 2022 were examined. According to the study's results, the number of citations and research articles increased remarkably in 2021. This result enables researchers to describe the characteristics of the contents of scientific journals.
