Abstract

This study conducted a scientometric analysis using CiteSapce based on literature from the Web of Science (WoS) core collection and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) between 2013 and 2022. The primary objective is to comparatively explore the current status, themes, and emerging trends in task-based teaching and learning to understand this field comprehensively. The results provided insights for researchers to explore more in this field.
