A small to moderate relationship exists between students' science self-image and course achievement. Little change during semester of students' slightly positive attitude toward science and astronomy. No relationship found between course achievement and completion of previous courses in math or science. Students show large gains in conceptual understanding during one-semester conceptually-based astronomy course. Replicating conceptual gains, probing attitude changes across three semesters," American Journal of Physics, 67 (10), 923-927. A good place to start a literature review for new research in astronomy education.

Covers elementary, secondary and university instructional levels and separates research articles by astronomical topic. Listing of 135 research articles, review articles, books, dissertations, bibliographies, web sites and conference proceedings related to astronomy education research.
