摘要:: 数智时代的大学必须重视数字化建设,数字化建设的关键是教学数字化。澳大利亚麦考瑞大学和丹麦奥尔堡大学是国际上教学数字化建设的成功案例,各自开拓出“离心型”和“向心型”大学数字化建设路径。两所大学数字化都以教学数字化为突破口,带动大学治理、社会服务等教育全要素数字化。但在技术路径上,两所大学表现出不同的数字化模式。大学数字化有多种路径,教学数字化是先导,以引领教育数字化,不同大学应根据学校特色,因时因地,走出自己的数字化之路。

Abstract:: Digitization is an important measure for universities to maintain world-class competitiveness in the digital-AI era. This comparative study analyzes Macquarie University in Australia and Aalborg University in Denmark to understand their digitalization strategies and paths. They represent the two divergent models: the “centrifugal” model versus the “central” model. The analysis of the paths indicated that the two universities shared the same breakthrough point: the digitalization of teaching that has driven the digitalization of university governance and social services. This path is working like a ripple-like construction map centering on the digitalization of teaching. The analysis of the technologies indicated that the two universities followed completely different models. Three major implications emerged for Chinese universities: (1) the digitalization of universities has rich connotations and diverse paths; (2) digitalization of teaching should be the first priority, followed by scientific research, management and social services; (3) digitalization is aimed at empowerment of universities and consolidation of their strengths and features.
