【摘 要】终身教育是新世纪世界教育发展的方向与战略。以中国知网与WoS数据库为数据源，采用数据可视化工具对21世纪以来国内外终身教育研究领域的4 351篇文献进行分析。结果表明，国内终身教育领域缺乏代表性研究团队，在研究成果数量上与国外仍有一定差距。国内研究主题及热点主要集中在终身教育理论概念探究、发展现状及中外比较、学习型社会建构、高等教育改革等方面，国外则主要集中于教育公平、高等教育变革、学生终身学习能力发展以及信息技术支持下的终身教育发展的探讨上。综合来讲，学习型城市建设、职业教育与教育技术发展、教师教育一体化等是未来研究重点。基于此，我国终身教育研究需加强核心作者群体间的交流合作，创新研究视角，拓展研究内容等。

Abstract：Lifelong education is the direction and strategy of world education development in the new century. Using CNKI and WoS database as data sources, data visualization tools were used to analyze 4,351 documents in the field of lifelong education research at home and abroad since the 21st century. The results show that there is a lack of representative research teams in the field of lifelong education in the domestic, and there is still a certain gap in the number of research results between China and foreign countries. Domestic research topics focus on theoretical concepts, development status, the construction of a learning-oriented society, higher education reform, etc.,while foreign research focuses on issues of educational equity, reform of higher education, development of students’ lifelong learning ability, and discussion on lifelong education supported by information technology. Learning city construction, vocational education and educational technology development, and integration of teacher education are expected to be the future research emphases. Based on this, it is necessary to strengthen the cooperation between the authors, innovate the research perspective and expand the research focuses.
