Strategies for Local Universities to Promote Balanced and Excellent Development of Regional Education: A Triple Helix Analysis from China
China’s education reforms have come a long way. But quality across regions? Still uneven. A stubborn problem. This paper asks: Can local universities help? Make regional education fairer and better. We used the “Triple Helix” framework. That’s universities, industry, government working together. Policy analysis. Plus a close look at Yulin University in Shaanxi. We talked to fifteen people. The interviewees included university leaders, local officials, and school principals. Three practical approaches emerged. First, work with local businesses. Create short “micro-credential” programs. Focused. Fill specific skill gaps. Second, build a shared online platform. Push good teaching resources into rural schools. Third, set up a teacher residency model. For ongoing professional growth. The upshot: local universities can serve as anchors. But how well they do depends on handling limited resources. Also lining up everyone’s incentives. This study rethinks what local universities can do. Shrink education gaps. By the way, most interviews were done over tea – people talk more freely that way.

Building a Smart Curriculum for Core Engineering Courses through Teacher-Student-AI Interaction: The Case of Mechanics of Materials
China’s national push for educational digitalization has made a lot of application-oriented universities rethink how they teach core engineering courses. They are trying to make these courses smarter, and that has become a big part of how they reform talent training now. Mechanics of Materials is a required course for mechanical engineering students, but teaching it well has always been hard. The theories are abstract, and they often feel cut off from real engineering work. Students come in with very different levels of preparation, and teachers just cannot give each student enough personal help in large classes. Our work is based on the provincial first-class undergraduate course at the University of Science and Technology Liaoning. We built a smart curriculum system that puts Teacher-Student-AI Interaction at the center, uses a knowledge graph as its backbone, connects everything through a course-specific AI agent, and runs on multi-dimensional evaluation. What we saw in actual teaching shows that this system helps fix old problems that traditional teaching has had for a long time. Students end up with better knowledge and stronger engineering practice skills. We think this gives other application-oriented universities a model they can use for their own foundation courses.

Major Selection and Career Intentions under TCM Culture Entering Campuses—Evidence from a Questionnaire Survey
Purpose: This study aims to explore the impact of exposure to traditional Chinese medicine culture in primary and secondary schools on college students' professional choice and career intention. Method: Adopt a combination of convenient sampling and online questionnaire survey. The data is collected through the "Questionnaire Star" platform. Results: College students generally have a positive attitude towards traditional Chinese medicine. Compared with students who have not been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine culture, students who have been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine culture are significantly more affected in terms of professional choice and career intention. Conclusion: Exposure to traditional Chinese medicine culture has a significant positive impact on the academic and career choices of college students. Therefore, it is recommended to strengthen the construction of traditional Chinese medicine culture on campus, improve the curriculum system of traditional Chinese medicine, expand the communication channels of traditional Chinese medicine education, and further deepen the integration of traditional Chinese medicine culture and primary and secondary education.

An Empirical Study on the Influencing Factors of Chinese Language Teaching Efficacy Among Primary School Teachers
Based on survey data from 160 primary school Chinese language teachers in Yunnan Province, this study investigated the factors influencing their teaching efficacy. The Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES) and a self-designed questionnaire were used for data collection, followed by statistical analyses including one-way ANOVA, independent-samples t-tests, and exploratory factor analysis. The results showed significant variation in teachers’ efficacy scores. Demographic factors such as age and years of teaching experience had a significant impact on teaching efficacy, whereas gender and professional title did not. Among personal factors, the ability to analyze teaching materials, professional identity, and teacher-student communication skills were significantly associated with teaching efficacy. Regarding external factors, teachers’ recognition of the fairness and scientificity of the evaluation system positively influenced their teaching efficacy. Accordingly, the study recommends enhancing teaching efficacy through coordinated efforts at the individual teacher, school management, and policy-making levels.
