“…Figure 9) its relevance and development degree are both rather low which locates it in the same quadrant as RME. Again, however, it can be assumed that it constitutes an emerging theme rather than a declining theme as expressed by the temporal topography in Figure 8 and a plethora of recent articles concerned with this theory (Zhong et al, 2022;Kemp and Vidakovic, 2023). Since APOS Theory helps to understand learning of university-level students, the question arises as to whether it may also serve as a sensible endeavor for research of learning algebra in the context of higher secondary education.…”

Algebra is a crucial component of mathematics education as it introduces learners to the mathematical world of modeling relationships and handling abstract quantities. The increasing volume of scholarly work in the field has been analyzed qualitatively in numerous systematic reviews—a quantitative breakdown of the field, however, remains a desideratum to date. With this study we contribute to closing this gap by reporting on the results of a bibliometric analysis. We retrieved data from Scopus and Web of Science databases and analyzed 1,825 articles published between 2003 and 2022. On the one hand, we provide insight into the current state of algebra education from primary up to tertiary education by describing the scientific production and its bibliographic topography. On the other hand, we analyzed the data to identify trends and future directions. The results of our study indicate, among other aspects, that APOS Theory and Realistic Mathematics Education are emerging themes in the field that have great potential to shape future research.
