Abstract

Teaching is a profession that has been exercised since ancient times and has not lost its popularity. Knowledge has been transmitted through teaching throughout the ages. Today, teaching has become even more important due to rapidly changing information trends. This study aims to provide a general assessment of the research being carried out on teaching physical education between 2013 and 2023. In the study, foreign-language articles were searched in the Web of Science database. They were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of 2145 studies were analysed. Bibliometric analysis is one of the quantitative research methods. The Vosviewer programme was used for the analyses. As a result of the search, some authors such as Richards, Kevin Andrew and Haerens, Leen are the most cited authors, the most cited studies in this area were reached in 2022, authors such as Pill, Shane and Vansteenkiste Maarten are among the most cited authors, Ryan and Deci's "Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation from a self-determination theory perspective: Definitions, theory, practices, and future directions" by Ryan and Deci is the most cited work and Turkey is a cited country in research. It is believed that the results of this study will provide an important resource for understanding the existing literature in this area and provide a basis for future research.
