Biology is a vital and relevant branch of science that has a significant impact on daily life and the overall development of societies. Many advances in biology education have transformed much pedagogy, particularly learning in the more substantial part of higher education contexts. Thus, bibliometrics can be used to depict and analyze publication trends in updating scientific datasets and knowledge in this field. This bibliometric review scrutinized the progress, trends, and updates in the Scopus database for biology education publications. The total number of publications, citations, and publication patterns over 63 years are among the bibliometric parameters examined in this review. The obtained publication lists were analyzed using VOSviewer software, which displayed the bibliographic data graphically. The current study portrayed that the number of publications on biology education has increased in recent years. This inclination is probable to continue, as evidenced by the current peak of publications trajectories. The examining publications and research areas reveal that efforts to improve biology education cover miscellaneous topics and disciplines. Researchers and educators in biology education may benefit from this bibliometric review because it provides information, concepts, thoughts, and intuitions that can be used to strengthen their theories and practices.

Our research focuses on regional economic growth and development, concentrating on Douglas County, one of the foundational pieces of the Kansas, United States economy. This paper will analyze trends in the County and outline an economic plan for where they should strive to create changes. The method used will compare Douglas County to Kansas and then the United States by industry using a measure called Location Quotient, which measures the strengths and weaknesses of an industry using a ratio matrix. Porter cluster analysis was employed to visualize and analyze how fostering an environment of competition, economic growth, and development will increase productivity, drive business synergy to the industries that need it the most, and stimulate new businesses with economic potential via the results from our Location Quotient analysis within the Douglas County region. Our concluding recommendations will be based on past literature that has commonalities with our finding, providing policymakers, academics, and stakeholders with a spectrum of information while highlighting the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats framework. Our finding aims to provide big-picture systemic changes that can be implemented within the County rather than individual or micro changes impacting less of the population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
