From cloud computing to the Internet of Things (IoT), the wide-ranging application of technology is accelerating digital transformation in education. Emerging from the pandemic, new needs are arising, creating new challenges. But strengthened network construction fosters innovation, helping universities, for example, build smart campuses, improving the level of scientific research and innovation.
