Research trends in the physics education program: Bibliometric analysis.

This study aims to find out what topic trends have been most researched by students of the physics education study program in Bandar Lampung for the last four years (2018-2021) and research in the future. The type of research used is quantitative descriptive research that uses bibliometric analysis methods with zipf law. The sample used is a saturated sample type which means that all members of the population are used as samples, the sample in this study was 432 thesis of physics education study program students in Bandar Lampung. The results showed that there were 7 core topics from 432 theses that had been published from two universities in Bandar Lampung which contained physics education study programs for the 2018-2021 period. Of the 7 core topics of the physics education study program thesis in Bandar Lampung, there are three topics that are most often studied, including the learning model with a percentage of 50.7%, the two learning media with a percentage of 13.9% and the third is learning outcomes with a percentage of 12.7%. The number of learning models studied makes it a study to find out the implementation of a learning model that is right to be used in the current era and makes opportunities for future research topics. Hybrid Learning itself is considered as a very appropriate way of learning by combining learning strategies between asynchronous and synchronous. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
