Measurement Analysis and Evaluation of Twenty-Five Years of Mathematics Education Research in China: Visual Econometric Analysis Based on CiteSpace Knowledge Mapping (1999–2024)

Since the new century, China’s mathematics curriculum reform in basic education has continued to move forward in attempts and explorations, presenting many new changes, trends, movements, and developments. Sorting out, analyzing, and summarizing the achievements, experiences, problems, and challenges in this journey are conducive to providing insights for the reform and development of the Chinese basic education mathematics curriculum in the new era. This paper analyses the research on mathematics education in China (1999–2024) using the visual measurement of CiteSpace knowledge mapping, hoping to provide directions for the future of mathematics education in China.
