Abstract: The teaching methods of each subject should not only adapt to the internal needs of students, but also adapt to the objective laws of the development of external things, and should make the two skillfully combined and promote each other, so as to achieve the "double adaptation" of teaching. After repeated research and experiments, we found that the "learning guide" implemented according to a "four-step procedure" can comprehensively solve this problem. This can also bring about a high degree of integration of "teaching" and "learning", a high degree of integration of teaching plans, textbooks, assignments and exams, a high degree of integration of teaching materials and teaching methods, a high degree of integration of teaching methods of various disciplines, and a high degree of consistency between school education and social needs. The role, energy and various effects of "highly integrated" and "highly consistent" can not be underestimated. It can not only ensure that all teaching tasks can be easily completed within the specified teaching time, but also expand the depth and breadth of knowledge on the original basis, creating extremely favorable conditions for the cultivation of talents and even talents.

Abstract: This article delves into validity of skills development hypothesis in promoting inclusive growth in the context of a lower-middle income economy confronted with several macroeconomic problems and labour market challenges. The analytical outline is guided by the theory of inclusive growth (IG) and existing body of empirical literature on skills development. As debated in the literature, there is no single solution to foster inclusive growth. Each country approaches the inclusive growth challenge differently, based on its resource endowments and unique socio-economic circumstances. There is a major literature gap using skills development models to promote inclusive growth. Thus, industry and country specific studies contribute to ongoing theoretical debate on inclusive growth on one hand and enrich empirical evidence on interlinks between skills development and IG on the other. Here, we present a case study of a skills development project (2017-2024), designed to promote inclusive growth through skills development of the tourism industry. Its target beneficiaries include both formal and informal sector business owners and employees of tourism sector micro, small and medium scale enterprises (MSMEs) operating in economically backward regions. The study utilizes data from both primary and secondary sources and employs mixed methods approach for detailed analysis. The paper provides several interesting findings on key themes of inclusive growth. First, the evidence on skills development of employees in the tourism value chain reveals sharing of growth benefits by low-income earners and the unemployed including females and disabled persons. Second, the findings on employer capacity building and skills development demonstrate inclusive growth benefits through entrepreneurship development, incremental income, and new product development. Third, the findings on gender and disability inclusion demonstrate power of skills development in promoting inclusive growth through MSME development. Finally, the overall findings enable policy makers in developing countries to promote inclusive growth through skills development of MSMEs operating in the tourism sector.

Abstract: In this article, the author uses historical analysis methods to decompose the AI technology into three factors and predicts the fields in education adaptable for AI applications. On the basis of existing AI educational applications, the reasons why AI can be applied to education were analyzed. In these derivation steps, the author dissects AI technology into three pillars using factor analysis methods, and then predicts the mainstream of AI educational applications. Next, the theory of Language-oriented Approach of Teaching is borrowed. Based on the comprehensive analysis on education development and prediction of various roles of educational professional, the trend of future educational transformation is described, the challenges and opportunities brought by the application of AI technology to the teaching group are further demonstrated, and future developments of each branch of teacher groups are forecasted. Finally, the author conducts a further analysis of AI’s impact on the various teacher roles. In these analysis processes, some specific viewpoints are put forward, such as future mode of Knowledge Gaining Tools-centered Teaching, three nodes of teaching process, the replacement of the language function of manual labor teachers by AI, the fractal impact of AI on the teaching staff, and the positioning of the future role of teachers, etc.

Abstract: Professional title promotion constitutes a critical component of faculty assessment in higher education institutions, directly influencing teachers’ value judgments and behavioral orientations. Only by granting equal respect to teaching and research within the professional title promotion system can the prevailing phenomenon of “prioritizing research over teaching” in universities be fundamentally addressed. This study analyzes policy documents on professional title promotion from seven financial and economic universities in China and one international research-oriented university. Through comparative analysis, case studies and observational insights into evaluation practices at sample universities, this research clarifies the similarities and differences in teaching evaluation criteria between domestic and international professional title promotion systems, identifies existing issues in teaching evaluation mechanisms within Chinese universities, and provides novel insights for administrators to optimize teaching evaluation criteria and advance comprehensive university teachers evaluation reforms. We found that there are problems in most universities with their teaching evaluation mechanisms, such as relatively crude teaching evaluation criteria, insufficient comprehensiveness teaching evaluation content, and the lack of peer evaluation links. Therefore, in order to better align the professional title promotion results to teachers’ teaching performance, universities should adopt a combined approach of quantitative evaluation and qualitative evaluation, highlight the differences among disciplines in the evaluation criteria, introduce teaching innovation and teaching leadership criteria, establish a shared and recognized peer evaluation mechanism for teaching performance, and strengthen the linkage and cooperation among universities.
