With the continuous deepening of population aging in China, talent education for elderly care services is confronted with a prominent imbalance between talent supply and demand, structural misalignment, homogenization of course content, and weak teaching effectiveness. With its powerful data processing, personalized services, and intelligent decision-making capabilities, artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities for solving traditional training problems and promoting the reform and innovation of talent education. Based on clarifying the value of AI in empowering the education of elderly care service talents and its role positioning as an ``innovator, manager, and evaluator'', thi... More >

Digital transformation has emerged as an important driver of change in higher education, reshaping traditional teaching and learning through the incorporation of advanced digital technologies. This paper presents a qualitative study of the implementation of digital tools in higher education and examines the key factors that facilitate their effective integration, focusing on teaching, student-teacher interaction, and learning. An interpretive qualitative design was adopted in selected government colleges in Himachal Pradesh, India, involving 37 participants (12 faculty members and 25 undergraduate students). Data were gathered through semi-structured faculty interviews, student focus group d... More >

Student mental health has become a core issue in university governance, yet existing support models remain insufficiently adaptive to the ecosystem of arts education, which is shaped by public performance, iterative critique, and identity exposure. This practice-oriented paper develops a counselor-led mental health support model for arts major students through a narrative review of relevant literature, reflection on the authors' long-term front-line counseling and student-affairs practice, and the analysis of illustrative de-identified composite cases derived from real practice. Drawing on ecological systems theory, the paper argues that sustainable support must link micro-level counseling w... More >

In recent years, continuation writing has attracted growing scholarly attention in second language (L2) pedagogy and assessment. However, most existing studies have focused on learners’ surface-level linguistic output, failing to unpack the underlying conceptual blending mechanism. In particular, cognitive comparative analyses across learners with varying proficiency levels remain scarce. Drawing on Conceptual Blending Theory (CBT), this study selected 18 continuation writing samples produced by L2 English learners from a key senior high school in Sichuan Province. NVivo was employed to conduct coding and cross-group comparative analyses across four dimensions, namely plot coherence, chara... More >

Engineering Economics is a core course for the Engineering Cost major in application-oriented undergraduate universities, yet traditional teaching often suffers from a theory-practice gap, low student participation, and polarized academic performance. Guided by Outcomes-Based Education (OBE), this study developed a three-in-one project-driven teaching model integrating modular theory, whole-process project practice, and diversified assessment. Theoretical content was reorganized into four application modules within a closed-loop ``lecture-practice-assessment'' process. A real local project---the renovation of an unfinished building into affordable rental housing in Zhaoqing City---served as... More >

Research is essential to addressing the current education crisis, as it supports the development, assessment, and enhancement of educational practices. Nevertheless, carrying out action research has become one of the most challenging tasks for most teachers because it has increased their workload, and the purpose of this study was to identify the challenges encountered by teachers in their pursuit of writing action research. This study was at Tagoloan Central School in the Division of Misamis Oriental, Philippines. It used a qualitative methodology with a phenomenological research design and included twenty-one participants selected through purposive sampling. The data were collected using... More >

To address the current issue that the smart logistics course focuses heavily on hardware introduction while lacking practical training in operations research optimization and intelligent decision-making, this paper constructs a practical teaching system that integrates operations research and intelligent decision-making. Guided by industry demands such as the low-altitude economy, last-mile delivery, and automated warehousing, a three-tier progressive practical module "Basic, Comprehensive and Innovative" is designed. The system adopts project-based learning (PBL) and is organized in three stages: "Scenario Modeling, Code Implementation and Solution Decision-Making". A diversified process-ba... More >

This paper focuses on the ideological and political education in artificial intelligence (AI) specialized courses. A fusion model characterized by knowledge height (disciplinary expertise), knowledge temperature (value orientation) and knowledge length (holistic education) is constructed, emphasizing the organic unity of knowledge transmission and value cultivation. Firstly, through cross-team collaboration, a tripartite educational team comprising disciplinary instructors, ideological and political educators, and student counselors is established, alongside a collective lesson-planning mechanism. Secondly, via pedagogical integration, the objective of socialist core values is operationalize... More >
