Development of higher education within the Belt and Road: Achievements, deficiencies and the rule of law pathway

The Belt and Road Initiative provides new opportunities and impetus for the development of higher education in China. In the past 20 years, higher education in China has made great achievements: the scale of higher education talents has increased, the protection of higher education rights has improved, and cooperation and exchanges in higher education have increased. Regarding exchanges and cooperation in higher education in the Belt and Road, China faces unresolved challenges, including the only opportunity for talent training, a complex and changing environment for international cooperation, and broad and unclear institutional norms. Guaranteeing the rule of law is a support and driving force for countries to engage in exchanges and cooperation in higher education within the framework of the Belt and Road. China needs to actively promote the construction of the rule of law under the Belt and Road framework, unambiguously promote the development of higher education through effective laws, and actively promote the civilized process of the rule of law in higher education. Utilizing the rule of law and the rule of law will promote a new stage of higher education reform and build a modern higher education system with Chinese characteristics. Based on the concept of ensuring the proper rule of law to support cooperation and development, various methods should be applied to promote the development of the rule of law, including the formation of the concept of effective law and good governance, the improvement of information and evaluation systems in higher education, and the improvement of the information and evaluation system in higher education.

Information Flow and Knowledge Management Strategies in the Digital Transformation of Party History and Party Building Education

Abstract In this paper, a relatively complete digital education management information system is established for the digital basic education resources involved in the field of basic education of Marxist theory to realize the digital transformation of party history and party-building education. Faced with a large amount of student data, the improved new BP model is utilized for integration, cataloging, and prediction. The data elements describing the resources are used as semantic tags to generate XLM documents in a standardized format, which enables the system to exchange data with other resource systems easily. It can be observed that the BP model accurately predicts and analyzes the shared learning behaviors of certain students with a prediction accuracy of 98% upon analysis. The educational management information system proposed in this paper can effectively identify potential risk-takers and categorize learning groups. The indicator of resource-sharing learning behavior has a significant effect on the learning effect of Marxist theory (P<0.05).

Designing a Business Game to Teach the Relationship Between Business Models and Business Processes

Business models (BMs) and business processes (BPs) both represent key concepts for research and practice, especially for information systems (IS) education. Understanding how these concepts are related is crucial as they directly affect each other. However, no teaching concept focusing on this relationship can be found in the literature. Using a business game (BG) could be a suitable solution given its characteristics. Therefore, our goal is to design a BG to teach IS students the relationship between BMs and BPs. Toward this challenge, we follow a design science research approach to construct the BG. Based on the evaluation results of our first design cycle, we introduce a revised set of 14 design requirements and eight design principles guiding our design process. Besides, we demonstrate a revamped instantiation of the BG using a revised set of 24 design features. We also conduct two evaluation episodes comprising an experiment and confirmatory focus groups to assess the artifact's conceptualization and instantiation, proving its utility. Finally, we present a nascent design theory for BGs teaching the relationship between BMs and BPs. Our work contributes to the knowledge base on BG design in the domain of BMs and BPs.

The Ideal of Profitable: Information Systems, Debt, and the Shaping of Governable College Students in Colombia

Abstract This paper evaluates how higher education information systems have shaped financial subjectivities among university students in Colombia over the past two decades. It analyzes the financial conception of higher education promoted among those aspiring to higher education by exploring the debates on neoliberal governmentality and its impact on higher education. To achieve this goal, it traces the dissemination of human capital theory in the guidelines of multilateral organizations, searches for favorable mentions of financial aid programs in two national newspapers and estimates the intensity of interpellations in college magazine advertisements.

Strengthening Undergraduate Information Systems Education in an Increasingly Complex Computing Disciplines Landscape

There are concerns that even at times when overall computing degree enrollments are increasing, IS bachelor’s degree programs and enrollments continue to decline. IS programs differ from other computing programs in that they include highly interrelated business and technology components. This inherent interdisciplinarity is the source of its value but also one of its challenges. This paper uses the Australian higher education sector as a case study to examine overall computing degree offerings including IS offerings using the ACM/AIS curriculum models and classification of computing disciplines. We find that IS program offerings are indeed trending down and that computing offerings are dominated by Computer Science and Information Technology degrees. IS is not widely present as a “base” discipline, nor is it providing a platform for the integration of new technologies, such as AI and Cyber Security into “business” settings. To strengthen UG IS programs and perceptions, we recommend that higher education providers develop structure and processes that support interdisciplinary UG IS program development and delivery and that professional bodies and curriculum models be revised to reflect and recognize the business outcome focus of IS. These actions, together with clearer messaging around the value of IS competencies, will improve the image of IS.
