文摘Teachers play a pivotal role as key executors and direct stakeholders in the education and teaching of international students in China.Their successful navigation through the digital transformation journey is crucial in determining the seamless digital transformation of education and teaching for international students in China.Based on an in-depth examination of cognitive,technological,and institutional challenges faced by teachers involved in teaching international students in China during their digital transformation,this paper explores pathways to facilitate the digital transformation of the teaching staff for international students in China and puts forth pertinent policy suggestions.
文摘In the context of the digital economy,digital transformation of enterprises has become a current hot topic.This study focuses on Hualing Steel to explore how enterprises can achieve high-quality development through digital transformation.The paper employs indicators of efficiency,innovation,and green development,utilizing the entropy and TOPSIS methods to quantitatively assess transformation performance from 2013 to 2023.The analysis yields three key conclusions:(1)Digital transformation has yielded significant outcomes,with the highest comprehensive performance observed in 2021,coinciding with the launch of the 5G smart factory;(2)A structural characteristic of"efficiency improvement leading,with innovation-driven development lagging"is identified;(3)Recommendations are made for deepening the application of digital technologies,optimizing enterprise operation management systems,enhancing innovation-driven development,and improving talent development systems.These findings provide a theoretical framework and practical model for the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing industries.

文摘This paper focuses on how technology services can help small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs)overcome the digital transformation dilemma of“cannot transform(lack of know-how),dare not transform(fear of risk),and have no money to transform(lack of funds).”Using literature analysis and multiple case comparisons,the study summarizes five major categories of technology services:technical support,consulting and planning,training and empowerment,resource integration,and financing connectivity.It constructs a“service–capability–performance”catalytic framework.Tracking of 58 enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta reveals that resource integration contributes the most to digital maturity,with absorptive capacity playing a significant mediating role;the configuration of“high technology services+high absorptive capacity+high environmental dynamism”is a sufficient condition for high transformation performance.Based on these findings,countermeasures are proposed,including improving the technology service system,strengthening government-industry-academia collaboration,and optimizing funding and talent supply,providing replicable experience for SMEs,governments,and technology service institutions.

文摘With the advancement of information technology,the digital transformation of higher education has become a global trend in educational reform.Egypt has propelled the modernization of its higher education system through digital means,focusing on enhancing teachers’digital teaching capabilities,improving course quality,and establishing a policy environment that supports digital instruction.The driving forces behind Egypt’s transformation include meeting the demand for skilled talent due to economic reforms,participating in internationalization processes,and the impetus provided by public diplomacy.By introducing high-quality international resources,deepening scientific research collaboration,and applying digital technologies,Egypt has effectively alleviated issues of resource insufficiency and uneven development,thereby enhancing its capacity for higher education quality assurance.Egypt’s practice demonstrates that digitalization is a key pathway for developing countries to improve the quality of higher education,providing valuable insights for constructing sustainable models of higher education development.
文摘COVID-19 placed increased pressure and urgency for effective cost management,resulting in unprecedented financial strains for hospitals.The pandemic also became a catalyst for accelerating digital transformation to improve operations and services in the healthcare industry.Morningdale Hospital is a large and reputable general hospital with a long history in the U.K.You are an intern in the Finance Department of the Hospital.The CEO has asked you to complete a patient-level cost analysis of endoscopic procedures in the Gastrointestinal Department.In your final report,you plan to include a SWOT analysis and a cost analysis using Activity-Based Costing accounting method.
文摘This study employs leadership contingency theory and resource dependency theory,utilizing financial data from Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies between 2012 and 2021.Ultimately,data samples from 4,742 companies were selected to empirically examine the impact and moderating role of female executives on corporate digital transformation.Findings reveal that the proportion of female executives positively promotes corporate digital transformation.Further analysis indicates that female executives drive digital transformation by enhancing corporate innovation investment and risk control capabilities.Supported by the heterogeneity analysis,it shows that this effect is more pronounced in high-tech industries,non-state-owned enterprises,and companies in economically developed regions.This study provides a gender-perspective theoretical explanation for the drivers of digital transformation and offers practical insights for optimizing corporate executive teams.

文摘Digital transformation provides enterprises with new development momenta.Understanding the relationship between digital transformation and total factor productivity(TFP)is essential.This study employs a fixedeffect model and selects all Chinese A-share listed companies from 2007 to 2022 as the research sample.Internal control(IC)is introduced as a mechanistic variable.The results indicate that digital transformation significantly promotes both TFP and the effectiveness of IC.Moreover,effective IC plays a significant mediating role in the relationship between digital transformation and TFP.A heterogeneity analysis reveals that,compared to non-state-owned enterprises,state-owned enterprises can improve TFP more rapidly through digital transformation due to their resource advantages and policy support.On the one hand,these findings help enterprises better align their transformation strategies to maximize the benefits of digital transformation.On the other hand,they provide investors with insights into the transformation potential and future growth prospects of these enterprises.
