Abstract :The objective of this study is to examine the articles published in Türkiye between 2010 and 2020 on the concept of activity in mathematics education in terms of the year, type, field of study, subject, method, data collecting tool, sampling, and data analysis. The investigation herein was grounded in the application of descriptive content analysis, employing established content analysis methodologies. The sample of the study consists of 64 articles published in DergiPark, which is a part of the Turkish Academic Network and Information Center of the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye between 2010 and 2020. To collect data in the study, the Study Classification Form was developed regarding the literature, and the data were analyzed by content analysis method. Accordingly, the data were first entered into the Study Classification Form and then into the Microsoft Excel program to obtain frequency and percentage tables. The findings of the study unveiled a discernible decline in the prevalence of research endeavors pertaining to the concept of activity within the domain of mathematics education in Türkiye during recent years. It is believed that the results of this study will provide researchers with new ideas for new studies to be conducted by allowing researchers to see the tendencies of the studies on the concept of activity in mathematics education and the gaps in the relevant literature.Keywords : Math activity, Descriptive content analysis, Published article
