Innovation of Higher Education Talent Training Model Under the Background of Digital Economy: Demand-Oriented Reform Paths

Abstract

The vigorous development of the digital economy has profoundly reconstructed the industrial structure and talent demand structure, putting forward new and higher requirements for the talent training quality of higher education. This study takes the talent demand of the digital economy as the starting point, explores the core connotation and practical dilemmas of the innovation of higher education talent training models, and constructs a demand-oriented reform path system. Based on the combination of literature research, industry investigation and multi-case comparison, this study clarifies that the digital economy requires higher education to cultivate interdisciplinary talents with digital literacy, innovative thinking, collaborative ability and lifelong learning ability. However, the current higher education talent training model still faces dilemmas such as disconnection between talent training objectives and industrial demand, backward curriculum system, single teaching mode, and imperfect evaluation system. To this end, this study proposes four reform paths: optimizing talent training objectives based on industrial demand, reconstructing the curriculum system oriented to digital literacy, innovating interactive teaching modes supported by digital technology, and improving the multi-dimensional comprehensive evaluation system. This research enriches the theoretical research on higher education reform under the digital economy background, provides practical guidance for universities to carry out talent training model innovation, and helps to realize the precise matching between higher education talent output and digital economy development needs.
