- Mathematics education (48.41%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her main research concerns Science education, Informal education, Mathematics education, Pedagogy and Self-efficacy.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Knowledge level, Multimedia, Teaching method, Out-of-school learning and Virtual reality in addition to Science education.
Her Informal education research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lifelong learning, Science learning and Medical education.
Borrowing concepts from Scale, M. Gail Jones weaves in ideas under Mathematics education.
Her work on Science identity as part of general Pedagogy study is frequently linked to Amateur, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
Her study in the field of Task value is also linked to topics like Clothing and Capital.

- Science hobbyists: active users of the science-learning ecosystem (14 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Social science
- Pedagogy
- Mathematics education
M. Gail Jones mainly investigates Science education, Pedagogy, Informal education, Knowledge level and Systems thinking.
In the subject of general Pedagogy, her work in Teaching method and Active learning is often linked to Virtual presence, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
Her studies in Informal education integrate themes in fields like Scientific literacy and Informal learning.
Her Knowledge level research integrates issues from Curriculum, Lifelong learning, Teacher education, Cognitively Guided Instruction and Complex system.
Her Systems thinking research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mathematics education, Multimethodology and Semi-structured interview.
She specializes in Mathematics education, namely Educational technology.
