Non-state Actors in Tertiary Education: A Shared Vision for Quality and Affordability? (Policy Paper 47) Year of publication: 2022 Corporate author: UNESCO Non-state provision accounts for more than one third of tertiary education students worldwide, a considerably higher share than in primary or secondary education. Providers are diverse, respond to a variety of needs, and often blur the line between the state and non-state sectors. Non-state actors are also important players in the financing of tertiary education through households, market mechanisms and public–private partnerships. As a result, these actors play a significant role in influencing regulations and policymaking, and in shaping the tertiary system as a whole. Governments must ensure quality and equity, the key dimensions of Sustainable Development Goal target 4.3, regardless of how state and non-state actors share responsibilities.

[Summary] Global Education Monitoring Report 2021/2: Non-state Actors in Education: Who Chooses? Who Loses? Year of publication: 2022 Corporate author: UNESCO Non-state actors’ role extends beyond provision of schooling to interventions at various education levels and influence spheres. Alongside its review of progress towards SDG 4, including emerging evidence on the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact, the 2021/2 Global Education Monitoring Report urges governments to see all institutions, students and teachers as part of a single system. Standards, information, incentives and accountability should help governments protect, respect and fulfill the right to education of all, without turning their eyes away from privilege or exploitation. Publicly funded education does not have to be publicly provided but disparity in education processes, student outcomes and teacher working conditions must be addressed. Efficiency and innovation, rather than being commercial secrets, should be diffused and practiced by all. To that end, transparency and integrity in the public education policy process need to be maintained to block vested interests. The report’s rallying call – Who chooses? Who loses? – invites policymakers to question relationships with non-state actors in terms of fundamental choices: between equity and freedom of choice; between encouraging initiative and setting standards; between groups of varying means and needs; between immediate commitments under SDG 4 and those to be progressively realized (e.g. post-secondary education); and between education and other social sectors.

The Influence Mechanism of Students' Information Literacy in Rural Areas (Modern Education Review; No.6, 2022) Year of publication: 2022 Author: 宋宇 | 刘芷楠 | 邝艺敏 | 贾朝良 | 梁秋淼 Using information technology to expand the coverage of good education resources is an important breakthrough to realize the high-quality development of rural education. Improving the information literacy of rural students is the key to better play the role of information technology. In order to explore the current situation and influence mechanism of rural students' information literacy, this study selected 26558 rural students of compulsory education, 453 rural information technology teachers and 3096 parents from a province in south China for questionnaire survey, Using the mediating effect analysis method to construct the influencing factor model of rural students' information literacy and the network analysis method was used to explore the interaction mechanism between the influencing factors and information literacy. The results show a low level of rural students' information literacy and insufficient motivation for learning information technology. The weak understanding of the value of information technology mainly limits the improvement of rural students' information literacy. Besides, teachers' low level of information technology and difficulties in using information equipment are constraints to students' information literacy. To improve the information literacy of rural students, efforts should be made in the following three aspects:enhance information technology service support and improve the using efficiency of equipment, enhance the practical efficiency of teacher training and give full play to the exemplary and leading role of excellent teachers, optimize the teaching content of information technology, and improve the cultivation effect of information literacy. 
What Kind of Power Does Technology Have on the Development of Education: On the Development Principle of Technical Force in the Process of Educational Modernization (Modern Education Review; No.3, 2022) Year of publication: 2022 Author: 余清臣 In the process of continuously promoting the comprehensive modernization of education, the issue of what influence technology has on the development of education has caused many debates and disputes. Therefore, it is necessary to deeply explore the connotation of technology and the possible influence of technology on the development of education. Up to now, technology has been a concept with multiple connotations, which can be divided into two levels:core essence and peripheral influence. At present, the influence of technology with multiple connotations on educational development is manifested in three aspects:technology enriches and upgrades educational means, promotes and changes the action efficiency and life form of educational subjects, and influences and changes the way the educational world is organized. In the process of comprehensively promoting the modernization of education, the planning and application of technological forces in education should focus on promoting the all-round development of mankind in the world, not on defeating or replacing other forces, and pursue the organic combination with other forces. In addition, continuous introspection, feedback and correction are also very important.
