Bibliometric Analysis Of 20 Years Of Research On Chinese As A Foreign Language Textbook Based On CiteSpace

As the basis for teachers' teaching and students' learning,TCFL textbooks not only play an important role in teaching activities,but also play an important role in the development of the discipline.The compilation of TCFL textbooks in China began in the 1950 s.After nearly 70 years of development,TCFL textbooks have initially formed a multi-level,multi type system that can meet the basic learning needs.In order to better grasp the research status of TCFL textbooks,this paper uses CiteSpace visualization software to visualize 1495 literatures on TCFL textbooks from 2000 to2019.The results are as follows:(1)Through the analysis of the literature quantity and journal distribution characteristics of TCFL textbooks,it is found that: in 2010,the research on TCFL textbooks mainly focused on journal papers,and after 2010,it mainly focused on master's and doctoral theses.It is predicted that the relevant research will reach the peak in 2017;the main research achievements of TCFL textbooks are as follows Published in nine journals,such as overseas Chinese education;Li Quan has a high authority in the field of TCFL textbook research,and his papers,have been highly cited.(2)Through the analysis of the characteristics of the publishing institutions of TCFL textbooks,it is found that: language and normal universities are the main force of TCFL textbook research and development,in which "double first-class" universities occupy the majority;Beijing,Xinjiang,Jiangsu,Shandong,Liaoning and other provinces have more publishing institutions,but Beijing,Shanghai,Guangdong,Jiangsu and Shandong provinces have more papers,Among them,Beijing is far ahead with 256 papers;the degree of cooperation among the publishing institutions is not close enough,there is no cooperative research group of a certain scale.(3)By analyzing the characteristics of the authors of TCFL textbooks,it is found that professors,associate professors,lecturers and editors of publishing houses in related fields are the core leaders in the field of TCFL textbooks research,and Zhou Xiaobing and others are the core authors;the authors prefer independent research,less cooperation and no form It has become a phenomenon of large-scale cooperation and exchange,with a single form of cooperation and a lack of inter agencies,inter provincial and inter field cooperation.(4)Through the analysis of the research hotspots of TCFL textbooks,it is found that textbook compilation,national textbooks,comparison,primary Chinese textbooks and Korea are the hot topics of TCFL textbooks research.The research hotspots from2004 to 2005 are primary Chinese textbooks,from 2006 to 2007 are TCFL,from 2008 to 2009 are vocabulary,and from 2010 to 2011 are vocabulary The hot spots are localization and comparative analysis from 2012 to 2013,comparative research from2014 to 2015,and national textbooks from 2016 to 2019.(5)Through the analysis of the research frontiers of TCFL textbooks,it is found that: the historical line chart of key words such as textbook compilation and Thailand is on the rise,belonging to the gradually strong research frontiers;the historical line chart of key words such as business Chinese,targeted and primary Chinese textbooks is on the steady research frontiers with the change of cycle;the historical line chart of key words such as interest is on the decline The results show that the decreasing trend belongs to the weakening research frontier,and the keywords such as textbook comparison start late and are cited more frequently,which belongs to the latest research frontier.
