This paper presents the outcome of a visual analysis of articles published in Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), from the establishment of the databases to December 31, 2022. The aim is to explore the hotspots, themes, technological evolutions, and emerging trends and gaps of technology-assisted Teaching Chinese as a Second/Foreign Language (TCSL/TCFL). A scientometrical review of collected articles is conducted with CiteSpace, and several findings are concluded:
(1) Apparent increases in the interdisciplinary publications in CNKI and WOSCC have been witnessed.
(2) Trans-regional collaborations among global authors and institutions are found to be rather limited.
(3) Conventional technologies in the last decade such as “multimedia” “mobile learning” and “Internet” and more welcomed and prolonged. New trends have also emerged due to the changes in the global context.
(4) New research directions such as distance education and cultural education have emerged in recent years.
Hence it is suggested that updated technologies and new ideas should be absorbed in TCSL/TCFL to keep up with global development, and modern venues should be explored to enhance Chinese teaching and learning effectiveness.
