Strategies for Local Universities to Promote Balanced and Excellent Development of Regional Education: A Triple Helix Analysis from China
type: item
description: 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
type: item
description: 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.

An Empirical Study on the Influencing Factors of Chinese Language Teaching Efficacy Among Primary School Teachers
type: item
description: 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.

A Syntactic Analysis of the “X de” Construction: A Study of Word Class Licensing Mechanisms from the Perspective of Cognitive Grammar
type: item
description: The "X de" construction is a typical nominal de-construction in Modern Chinese. Nouns, verbs, and adjectives—by virtue of their respective conceptual natures as entities, processes, and properties—can provide a stable categorization base for the de-construction, thus forming legitimate referential expressions. In contrast, numerals, as pure quantity operators, and classifiers, as dependent bounding/landmark units, both lack independent conceptual autonomy and therefore cannot serve as X. This distributional difference reflects a deep selectional restriction imposed by the "X de" construction on the conceptual essence of word classes. It can be given a unified explanation in terms of the correspondence between syntactic well-formedness and conceptual autonomy.

Integrating Beijing’s Cultural Resources into International Chinese Language Education: Multidimensional Values, Practical Dilemmas and Improvement Paths
type: item
description: Boasting profound heritage and diverse forms, Beijing’s cultural resources constitute vital teaching materials for international Chinese education. This paper systematically explores four dimensions: multidimensional values, integration models, practical hurdles and optimization strategies. Beijing’s culture features unique merits in urban positioning, cross-cultural communication and learners’ communicative competence cultivation. Its integration spans textbooks, classroom instruction, offline experience and AI application, yet problems persist: unfocused textbook content, rigid teaching modes, insufficient local support and disjointed in-class-out-of-class activities, plus superficial AI adoption. Accordingly, solutions are put forward: develop graded textbooks, innovate task-based teaching and immersive activities, expand school-community cooperation, and deepen AI-culture integration via a Beijing cultural knowledge graph.

Application of a Science-Education Integration Experimental Platform in Research-Oriented Teaching of Marine Technology
type: item
description: With the continuous rise in global demands for marine strategy and the in-depth advancement of new engineering education reform, the cultivation of marine technology professionals is shifting from a knowledge-transfer-oriented model toward a research- and innovation-driven paradigm. However, at the undergraduate level, current teaching practices still commonly face challenges such as the disconnection between classroom instruction and scientific research, insufficient experimental resources, and the absence of a systematic framework for fostering students’ innovative capabilities. Against this backdrop, an integrated science–education experimental platform characterized by standardization, informatization, and digitalization has been introduced. This study leverages scientific research resources to reinforce teaching and replaces traditional didactic instruction with research-oriented pedagogy in core courses of marine technology. By constructing an end-to-end science–education integration model, restructuring the practical teaching system, and optimizing the evaluation mechanism of talent cultivation, this work effectively enhances students’ engineering practice ability, research thinking, and innovative design competence, thereby establishing a replicable framework for experimental teaching reform. The results demonstrate that the science–education integration experimental platform exerts a significant positive impact on teaching effectiveness and offers substantial value for pedagogical innovation in marine technology education. It provides an important reference for promoting the transformation of undergraduate education in marine disciplines under the context of new engineering education in China.

Exploration on the Teaching Reform of “Aging Design” Course for Civil Engineering Specialty under the Background of Aging
type: item
description: The degree of aging in China continues to deepen, and the demand for old residential renovation and old-age facilities construction has surged. The aging project has become the focus of urban and rural construction. As a carrier for the cultivation of construction talents, the existing courses of civil engineering lack systematic teaching content suitable for aging, and the supply of talents is out of line with the needs of the industry. Based on the development of aging society and the actual needs of engineering, this paper analyzes the existing shortcomings from the curriculum system, teaching content, practice platform and teaching staff, constructs the integrated reform system of theory, practice and curriculum ideology and politics, and puts forward the optimization path of reconstructing curriculum, innovating teaching, expanding practice and integrating ideology and politics. The research shows that promoting the reform of aging-appropriate teaching can improve the training mode of civil engineering talents, cultivate compound engineering talents with both professional ability and humanistic care, and continuously transport professional strength for urban and rural aging-appropriate construction.

The Effects and Boundaries of Human–AI Collaborative Creation in Language Aesthetic Education: Quasi-Experimental Evidence from 10 Higher Vocational Colleges in the Chengdu–Chongqing Region (Note 1)
type: item
description: This study explored the facilitating effect and application scope of human-AI collaborative creation on higher vocational students’ language aesthetic literacy to provide evidence-based support for AI-empowered language aesthetic education in higher vocational institutions. A quasi-experimental design was used, and the subjects were 600 first-year students from the ten higher vocational colleges in the Chengdu–Chongqing area. A three-group (human-AI collaborative / pure-human / pure-AI) pre-test + post-test + delayed post-test experiment was conducted. The four-dimensional, 26-item self-developed *Higher Vocational Students’ Language Aesthetic Literacy Scale* (Cronbach’s α = 0.89, CFI = 0.93, RMSEA = 0.06), the AI Self-Efficacy Scale (AISE), the AI Anxiety Scale, the work evaluation scale and the human-AI collaborative creation log were used in this study to systematically examine the impact of language aesthetic education in human-AI collaborative creation and its moderating mechanisms and application scope. The results were as follows: (1) The human–AI collaborative group exhibited significantly higher post-test total scores in language aesthetic literacy than the pure-human group (Cohen’s d = 0.72) and the pure-AI group (d = 0.85), with effect sizes for the aesthetic perception and aesthetic appreciation dimensions exceeding those for aesthetic creativity (d > 0.80 vs. d = 0.68). (2) Collaborative depth exhibited an inverted-U curvilinear effect; moderate collaborative depth (AI-assisted ideation + polishing; d = 0.65 vs. low collaboration) represented the optimal range, whereas high collaborative depth (+ evaluation intervention) resulted in attenuated effects (d = 0.58 vs. moderate collaboration). (3) AISE positively moderated the relationship between collaborative depth and aesthetic education effects (β = 0.15, p = 0.020), whereas AI anxiety negatively moderated this relationship (β = –0.12, p = 0.039). (4) Technical boundaries, cognitive boundaries, ethical …

Exploration on the Teaching Reform Path of Steel Structure Course from the Perspective of New Engineering Construction
type: item
description: The new engineering construction takes the integration of production and education, digital empowerment and innovation cultivation as the core orientation, and puts forward new requirements for the comprehensive engineering practice, digital design and innovative problem-solving ability of talents. As a core compulsory course for civil engineering and intelligent construction, steel structure has the characteristics of theoretical abstraction, engineering practicality and industry frontier. The traditional teaching mode has been difficult to adapt to the talent demand of intelligent construction and assembly construction industry. Based on the long-term teaching practice of steel structure course, this paper combs the three outstanding problems of the current classroom teaching mode solidification, the separation of theory and practice, and the single evaluation system, and puts forward the systematic teaching reform scheme from the four dimensions of the reconstruction of teaching content, the integration of multiple teaching methods, the improvement of practical teaching quality and the improvement of the whole process of multiple evaluation system. The reform practice shows that the integration of digital teaching resources, the introduction of project-based engineering practice, and the establishment of a process-based assessment mechanism can effectively stimulate students’ awareness of independent learning, strengthen students’ BIM modeling, steel component design, and on-site construction coordination capabilities, and achieve the trinity of knowledge transfer, ability training, and value shaping.

AI-Empowered Education of Ideals and Beliefs for Adolescents
type: item
description: In the era of digital intelligence, the education of teenagers’ ideals and beliefs faces serious challenges such as cognitive fragmentation, loss of values and weakening of subjectivity. As a transformative force in the educational ecosystem, artificial intelligence (AI) provides a historic opportunity to reshape the subjectivity of adolescents in this field of education. This article systematically analyzes the intrinsic mechanism and practical path of artificial intelligence empowering ideals and beliefs education. Based on the Marxist dialectic on the relationship between subject and object, this article believes that artificial intelligence promotes the transformation of education from “one-way indoctrination” to “two-way objectification”, so that teenagers can take the initiative to build their own value system in the process of transforming cognitive content and realize the development from “abstract people” to “specific people”. Artificial intelligence improves cognitive ability through an intelligent value cultivation system, expands the practical space by relying on the educational environment of virtual and real integration, and strengthens the effectiveness of collaborative education by optimizing curriculum connection, teacher collaboration and home-school-community linkage mechanism. This process realizes the dialectical unity of “subject objectification” and “object subjectification”.
