Digital Transformation and the New Logics of Higher Education

Universities are undergoing digital transformation (DT, the process of integrating digital technology into all aspects of an organization) to meet changing student expectations and keep pace with rapidly evolving knowledge. The study identifies five key themes of this transformation, including platformization (building technology platforms as core infrastructure) and partnership models, which are shifting how universities operate: from treating all students the same to personalizing learning, from focusing on what the university provides to focusing on what students need, and from viewing students as passive consumers to active participants who help create content.
