Abstract:
Against the backdrop of AI technology empowering higher education, universities are gradually developing a new digital governance paradigm based on digital construction and centered around algorithmic power. At present, since the concept and institutional construction of digital governance in higher education are not yet mature, there are potential risks in higher education digital governance, such as value deviation, incapacity of governance subjects, disorder of power, and misuse or abuse of technology. Therefore, universities must promote the innovation of the digital governance paradigm in higher education from aspects such as balancing computational rationality and humanistic values, strengthening the awareness and capabilities of human subjects, remodeling the multi-co-governance structure, and integrating and optimizing the governance system, so as to drive the modernization of the digital governance system in higher education.
