"Iceberg Theory" Perspective on the Study of Construction of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team in Higher Education Institutions
type: item
description: "The construction of a powerful educational nation takes higher education institutions as its important front, with higher education as the leader." In the new era, China is steadily advancing towards the strategic goal of building a powerful educational nation, with higher education entering a period of widespread global recognition. On this new journey, discipline inspection and supervision must earnestly shoulder the important responsibility of maintaining the Party's discipline within the education system, ensuring the construction of a powerful educational nation through high-quality supervision work in higher education institutions. This article, from the perspective of the "Iceberg Theory," analyzes what is visible on the "iceberg" - the work of supervision in higher education institutions - to clarify the construction strategy of the less known "what the team of discipline inspection and supervision cadres in higher education institutions should be" beneath the "iceberg." It looks at education from a broader perspective, integrates supervision into education, and proposes targeted countermeasures and suggestions. Finally, by presenting "what the team of discipline inspection and supervision cadres in higher education institutions should be" beneath the "iceberg," it continuously promotes the high-level development of discipline inspection and supervision work in higher education institutions in the new journey and the new era, resolutely safeguarding the position of cultivating successors.

Research on Pathways for Enhancing University Students' Digital Literacy in the Era of Artificial Intelligence
type: item
description: With the continuous development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the landscape of higher education is undergoing significant transformation. This paper focuses on the core issue of cultivating college students' digital literacy, expounds on the value of fostering college students' digital literacy in the context of the AI era, and analyzes three major current predicaments: over-reliance on technology and dulled thinking, lack of resources and an inadequate curriculum system, and ethical misconduct and security risks. Furthermore, it systematically proposes comprehensive countermeasures, including the hierarchical restructuring of university curriculum systems, collaborative governance among multiple stakeholders, and the systematic enhancement of teachers' capabilities. The aim is to construct a multi-dimensional and full-chain ecosystem for digital literacy cultivation, thereby providing theoretical support and practical guidance for fostering college students' digital literacy.

Climate Change Policy Agenda Setting in the Five Central Asian Countries: A Multiple Streams Framework Analysis
type: item
description: Applying the Multiple Streams Framework to climate policy agenda-setting in the five Central Asian countries has strong explanatory power. The study finds that, under their political systems, the problem, policy, and politics streams do not operate independently; rather, the politics stream is dominant. Accordingly, this study offers an appropriate refinement of MSF and proposes a politics-stream-dominant coupling model. In this model, the politics stream comprises the ruling party’s executive will and governing philosophy, the catalytic influence of public sentiment, and the actions of interest groups. The problem stream encompasses climate-change-induced natural disasters and feedback from international climate conferences. The policy stream includes national climate-change plans, policy recommendations from experts and scholars, and lessons from relevant international organizations and other countries’ climate policies. However, within this model, the problem and policy streams must first be recognized, vetted, and absorbed by the politics stream before the policy window for climate-change agenda-setting opens, which gives the process a distinctly top-down character. Moreover, differences in political institutions, economic structures, and resource endowments yield unique interaction patterns among the three streams across country contexts. Looking ahead, agenda-setting for climate policy in these five countries will continue to face the challenge of uneven development among the streams; sustained deepening of their coupling is required to keep the policy window open. This study provides a theoretical touchstone and a practical reference for China and other developing countries as they pursue climate diplomacy.

Status of VAWC Crime Victims: A Basis for a Comprehensive Victimology Program
type: item
description: This study determined the status of crime victims, particularly victims of violence against women in order to arrive in practical solutions to the stated problems of the study. Specifically, it sought to determine the factors contributory to victimization among crime victims, the effects of victimization, the support extended for the treatment of crime victims, in order to arrive in recommendations to assist crime victims and minimize the impact of victimization. It made use of descriptive-qualitative method of research. The researcher found out that the primary factors that lead to victimization of women victims of violence are socio-economic factors. Most of the abuses committed to victims were in the form of verbal abuse so there is no much visible physical effect. There is lack of support given to the victims. In terms of suggestions made by the victims to help other victims, most of them suggested livelihood program because they believe that some cases of violence against women stem from financial reasons.
