Abstract:

“Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) has become a key impacting factor on the continuous advancement of higher education transformation in the digital age. In recent years, a significant development has been observed in the publication of TPACK study in China. However, very few researches have been conducted to investigate the overall literature of the TPACK research in China. This paper analyzes the bibliometric features of documents published from 2012 to 2022 on the TPACK study in China. The research literature is retrieved from CNKI and CiteSpace and it is used to visualize the network analysis of author co-occurrence analysis, institution co-occurrence analysis and keyword co-occurrence analysis. The research result shows that the publications of TPACK research in China have maintained a stable increment, but the close cooperation network between the authors and institutions hasn’t been formed. The theme related to “integrated technology” and “information technology” constantly attracted the researchers’ attention in the last decade, and the burst terms “vocational teachers”, “college English”, “PSTs ” and “teaching and learning capability” were the strongest citation keywords in the 2022, which would represent the hotspots and trends of the TPACK research in China. This study contributes towards the better understanding of the existing literary landscape and the future research direction in the field of TPACK.”
