Abstract

This study endeavors to establish an assessment framework for cultivating undergraduate applied talent, specifically emphasizing data science competencies, in alignment with the development of China's regional economy. A mixed-methods approach, integrating focus group interviews and questionnaire surveys conducted over three rounds of data collection, was employed. The collected data underwent rigorous reliability and validity analyses utilizing SPSS software. An Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) was executed to construct a performance chart, evaluating the effectiveness of a 24-item framework designed to encompass key aspects of data science education. The initial internal consistency α coefficients for Questionnaire 2 and Questionnaire 3 were found to be .892 and .913, respectively, surpassing the 0.7 threshold, indicating a high level of reliability for all items related to data science competencies. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measurements approaching approximately 0.9 affirmed the efficiency of the questionnaire, specifically designed to gauge the relevance and effectiveness of data science-related indicators in the context of applied talent cultivation and regional economic development. Furthermore, the study underscores the significance of indicators such as teamwork, regional market research, and business opportunity identification within the domain of data science. It identifies gaps between key indicators and lower-performing indicators, proposing strategic improvement measures to enhance the alignment of applied talent cultivation objectives with the evolving needs of regional economic development, particularly in the data science landscape. The research findings not only contribute to a foundational understanding of data science competencies in applied talent cultivation but also lay the groundwork for innovative reforms in future talent cultivation models. By clarifying objectives and better aligning them with the dynamic demands of regional economic development, this study sets the stage for transformative advancements in the field of applied talent cultivation, particularly within the realm of data science.

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the scientific research performance of higher vocational colleges in Sichuan within the evolving landscape of data science. The study pursues two primary objectives: firstly, to assess the scientific research performance of these institutions using advanced methodologies such as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Malmquist index models; secondly, to explore the intricate relationship between scientific research inputs and efficiency through the lens of Rough Set theory. The dataset comprises scientific research inputs and outputs from 30 higher vocational colleges, spanning the years 2019 to 2021. The findings underscore an overall positive trend in scientific research performance across the higher vocational colleges under examination. However, a nuanced analysis using DEA and Malmquist index models identified that only five institutions demonstrated robust performance during the specified period. Furthermore, the study delves into the influential factors affecting scientific research efficiency, revealing that internal expenditure on scientific research funds and the presence of senior and above professional teachers play pivotal roles. These insights are gleaned through the application of Rough Set theory, providing a unique perspective within the realm of data science. In conclusion, the research recommends strategic interventions to improve research management and resource allocation, emphasizing their role in enhancing efficiency and mitigating disparities among higher vocational colleges in Sichuan, particularly in the context of data science. The study adopts a holistic approach, employing an integrated model that combines DEA, Malmquist, and Rough Set theory for a comprehensive evaluation of research performance within the evolving landscape of data science.

Abstract

The objectives were to identify the influence of teaching quality in higher vocational colleges on the employment quality of graduates, and to develop instructional design through both theoretical and empirical analysis, to synthesize the relationships among teaching quality, human capital, and employment quality. In collaboration with 17 experts, they were selected through purposive sampling and involving 100 instructors within higher vocational colleges in China. The instruments using the Delphi Technique through a round questionnaire of vocational colleges' teaching quality positively influenced both graduates' human capital and employment quality. The findings revealed that vocational colleges' teaching quality positively influenced both graduates' human capital and employment quality. Vocational education has a favorable effect on employment quality, with human capital playing a crucial role in enhancing teaching quality. This paper distributed 600 questionnaires in total and collected 527 valid questionnaires, with an effective recovery rate of 87.83%. Data processing and analysis were carried out on the valid questionnaires. However, the relationship between teaching quality and employment quality is mediated by professional cognition and growth ability. These results offer important insights for vocational colleges, pointing to the crucial significance of human capital and educational quality in improving employment quality. In higher vocational colleges, the study investigates the connection between human capital, employment quality, and instructional quality. The teaching quality positively affects graduates' human capital and employment quality, according to data from Hefei grads. The link between teaching and learning is moderated by human capital. The research uses AMOS software to analyze vocational teaching variables, revealing a direct effect of higher colleges' teaching quality on graduates' employment quality and human capital. The significance level of these effects is .001, indicating a strong capacity for explanatory reasoning.
