We found that，in the past 40 years, the CAHE has successfully hosted 22 international forums, co-hosted or guided 17 international conferences, and gone abroad on a tour of investigation 24 times. Besides, the members of CAHE have visited 4 continents and 11 countries. And with it, CAHE has experienced the transformation from “passive learning” to “active participation”, formed an academic model combining “invite in” and “go out”. Through the unremitting efforts, China’s higher education has entered the world and Chinese voice has been heard by the world. Since it established, CAHE provides Chinese wisdom and plays an important role to promoting the internationalization of China’s higher education.

    Suzhi education is a kind of policy for education of the Communist Party of China, and the educational thoughts and models with Chinese characteristics. Since the establishment of the China Association of Higher Education (CAHE) for 40 years, it has made a lot of significant contribution for putting forward, rising, and developing in depth for Suzhi education. There has been rapid development and remarkable results for China’s Suzhi education. However, the idea of concept and connotation of Suzhi education are needed to be further combed and clarified. It is discussed for China’s Suzhi education system in the new era, from the view of its object, idea and content. It is recommended that CAHE would keep working hard and make new contributions to integrate general education and professional education based on the Suzhi education framework, so as to speeding up the construction of the curriculum system, the academic system, and the discourse system of Suzhi education with Chinese characteristics.

    How to achieve efficient governance and high-quality development of the national strategic demand oriented education organization system has attracted great attention from the state and social organizations. As one of the“development”ideal types, the high-quality development of education must follow the general development theory. National strategy is an advanced, comprehensive and systematic governance model and overall strategy adopted at the national level, which faces the complex relations and situations at home and abroad. In order to coordinate and promote China’s path to modernization and the construction of a modern socialist power, it is urgent to build a complete set of seamless and reasonable national strategic system. From the perspective of overall national security and development, the national strategic system must pay special attention to the three substrategies of invigorating China through science and education, strengthening the country through talents and innovation driven development, because education, science and technology and talents are the basic and strategic support of a modern country. The basis of the development of China’s path to modernization is the high-quality development of education. To establish and promote the national strategic system of China’s path to modernization and its substrategies in various fields, and to promote the international scientific and technological innovation center and the world’s important talent center as a whole, it is necessary to build a strong high-quality education system to ensure the strong support of intelligence and the supply of all kinds of talents at all levels which is also a concentrated reflection of the strategic essence of high-quality education development based on national strategic.

    University governance guidelines are the principles and standards of university governance. They are “soft law” that lies between national higher education laws and regulations and internal rules within universities. The emergence of governance guidelines is the result of multiple factors. It is created as a governance instrument to promote high-quality university education, and also caused by the needs to enhance the governance function at the higher education system level. The development of university governance guidelines in foreign countries are non synchronous and non equilibrium but convergent. Based on the needs of high-quality development of higher education in the new era in China, the scope of practice of “governance with guidelines” can be further expanded, and the development of university governance guidelines with Chinese characteristics can be accelerated as one part of promoting the modernization of higher education governance system and governance capabilities.

    College entrance examination enrollment plays an important role in the construction of a common prosperity society. Its incentive and learning promotion function enhances the ability of education to form human capital. The social mobility it forms has a direct role in blocking inter-generational transmission of poverty. Its fair value orientation and fair selection mechanism are important contents of education equity as the basis of social equity. Its access policy and enrollment plan have the functions of directly allocating, adjusting and optimizing the supply and demand relationship of higher education resources and talent intelligence structure. College entrance examination enrollment has a good policy foundation to help build a common prosperity society. Targeted enrollment, rural special plan, local college entrance examination policy for migrant workers’ children, vocational education college entrance examination, junior college entrance examination to undergraduate level and other policy tools can be precisely used. The new college entrance examination focuses on the comprehensive development of people, and is a powerful tool for education to help build a common prosperity society. In the construction of a common prosperity society, college entrance examination enrollment work should deal with fairness and efficiency, college expansion and employment difficulties, vocational education and general education, as well as the relationship between different interest groups, form a working mechanism where the government focuses on the general and departments coordinate, combine policy support, information services, career planning guidance, etc., focus on breakthroughs, and promote all-round.

    “Reforming the enrollment and admission mechanism” is a strategic task that has been neglected after the implementation of the comprehensive reform of college entrance examination, but it dominates the overall situation. Based on the relevant viewpoints of system science theory, this study examines the reform practice in the almost 9 years, and finds that the multi-admission mechanism has problems such as insufficient consistency, insufficient related environment, and aphasia of governance concepts. Referring to the system heuristic method, it is proposed that the system optimization of the multi-admission mechanism should start from the subsystems and elements, clarify the basic composition; take the principles of science and fairness as the principle, clarify the value orientation; take the stakeholder’s position as the benchmark, adjust the relevant subjects; to start with the system, and improve the governance tools.

    Central Cities of Yangtze River Delta as Four Models of Higher Education Hubs: Appropriateness Between Higher Education Internationalization Theory and Local Practices
    WU Hantian; ZENG Lingqin

    The interaction and symbiotic development of universities and cities/regions has a long history. Compared to the higher education (HE) hubs in Knight’s theoretical narratives, the practice of regional HE integration and internationalization in China has been accompanied by the coupling and tension between macro-strategies, local policies and practical needs. In terms of regions/city clusters such as the Yangtze River Delta, their large geographical scale and the differentiation of development models of cities within the region have led to a “double-layered structure” pattern in the formation of HE hubs, i.e., several city-level hubs with their characteristics together form a region/city cluster-level hub. It is necessary to analyze the construction mode of city-level HE hubs in the Yangtze River Delta while paying attention to the overall development of the region, so as to deepen the understanding and to propose a discussion of the appropriateness between HE internationalization theories and local practices.

    Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, with the reform of external economic system and management system, the salary system of university faculty has undergone four important reforms. The last one is the reform of performance-based pay, which aims to establish the distribution autonomy of universities and the basic role of performance in wage distribution. Statistical analyses of 2007 and 2018 survey data of university faculty found that the structural factors such as the level of university, the region where the university is located and the of discipline had the stronger influence on faculty’ salary. In recent years, due to multiple factors, universities have introduced highly targeted and biased income distribution methods, such as high scientific research bonuses and annual salary system for outstanding positions. Universities have formed a pattern of income distribution, which rewards scientific research performance heavily, highly skewed distribution and multi-track parallel distribution, leading to the widening of the individual gap in faculty’ income. In the future, the government should broaden the total amount of performance pay in universities and improve the macro-control system of wages; universities should establish an income distribution system that matches the appointment system for positions.

    Social entrepreneurship education shoulders the historical mission of cultivating university students’ sense of social responsibility and entrepreneurial ability, and is an important way for universities to lead social development. Unlike business entrepreneurship, the motivation of social entrepreneurs is more from empathy and care for social issues, rather than economic returns. Therefore, social entrepreneurship education should also strengthen students’ experience of social issues, so that students can establish social commitments in empathy. In the practice of Stanford Graduate School of Business, the deep integration of experiential learning and social entrepreneurship education has been achieved through project-based curriculum teaching, emotionally awakened situational design, and entrepreneurial practice-oriented support system, with far-reaching impact and remarkable results. In the process of operation, Stanford Graduate School of Business has also gained a number of useful experiences, including building an ecological environment of “one body and two wings”“Four Lessons Convergence”“Enhance Social Development”“Problem Orientation”“Multiple Synergy” and “Comprehensive System”. The operating model has provided a feasible model for the social entrepreneurship education of Chinese universities, which is worthy of reference and promotion.

    The emergence and construction of “space” provides the possibility and operation of thinking paradigm transformation for labor education in colleges and universities. The maturity of the existing research picture and space theory has laid the foundation for the spatial transformation of labor education in colleges and universities. The openness, autonomy, panorama and productivity of university space continue to promote the naturalization, de-discipline, life and creation of labor education. From the existing pattern, physical space is the material basis of college labor education, knowledge space is the cognitive premise of college labor education, interpersonal space is the empathic support of college labor education, and experience space is the activity infiltration of college labor education. The four spatial types have a unified relationship logic of “separate embodiments and unity”, which not only guarantees the clarifying of the characteristics and key points of college labor education in the aspects of concrete perception, symbol cognition, subject care, and subject-object action, but also promotes the co-existence, symbiosis, sharing and co-creation of college labor education in the aspects of purpose, relationship, method and practice. In view of the hierarchy and interinfiltration of labor education space in colleges and universities, on the one hand, it is necessary to focus on the actions of labor education in environmental reconstruction, curriculum construction, communication atmosphere, diverse activities and other dimensions from the perspective of differentiation; on the other hand, it is necessary to focus on the balance of “status”“barrier” and “justice” strengthening from the perspective of system. Thus, the decentralization, strong correlation and effectiveness of labor education in colleges and universities are guaranteed.

    The Occupation-Education Fit: Resonance Based on Temporal Structures

    Time as a variable has always been co-temporally related to occupation and education, and in particular the relationship between occupation and education based on the structure of time has become a new area of contemporary research in vocational education. Previous studies on the relationship between occupation and education have been conducted from the perspective of their mutual adaptation, i.e. from the matching relationship between occupational demand and educational supply. The focus has been on attempting to design the conditions of possibility for vocational education in and through occupations, so that the reality of vocational learning can be brought closer to the ideals espoused by education. Vocational pedagogy theory intends to practice a successful match between the established real conditions of occupation-oriented learning on the one hand, and the subjective commitments of vocational education theory on the other. However, if the temporal structures in which occupation and education coexist can be linked, i.e. reconstructed in a way that follows the same “acceleration” mechanisms of the times, the temporal structures of the subject’s identity and the occupation he or she is engaged in and the education he or she receives can resonate, so that both can contribute in their own way and in a complementary way to the subjectification. German scholars’ research on the temporal structure and on the relationship between occupation and education on this basis has opened up a new horizon for the study of vocational pedagogy.

    According to the statistical analysis of the National Teaching Achievement Awards for Vocational Education in 2018 and 2022, it was found that the distribution of teaching achievement awards is still imbalanced in terms of regional and provincial distribution. It is necessary to stimulate the consciousness of provinces, cities, schools, and other entities, and consciously promote balanced evolution through action. The trend of diversified cooperation and extended practice period in teaching achievement awards is significant, and efforts should be made to achieve step-by-step development. The reform direction of teaching achievement awards should closely follow the needs of serving national strategic development, and more importantly, find “real problems” and propose “new solutions”. The core of teaching achievement awards is always the effectiveness of talent cultivation, and should respond to the concerns of all parties with the growth and success of students. The practice of vocational education teaching achievement awards should adhere to school enterprise cooperation, practical education, strengthen diversified vitality stimulation, and vocational education theory research. The cultivation of teaching achievement awards should be based on high-quality development, continue to pay attention to team building, professional construction, and textbook construction, further focus on micro areas, focus on courses, and take root in the classroom.
