The Path of Constructing a Platform of Academic Affairs System based on Continuing Education in Universities - Taking Zhejiang Open University as an Example

As a consequence of the field's constant expansion year after year, the path of developing the academic affairs system platform, which is directly linked to college continuing education, has received increasing attention. Using Zhejiang Open University as a starting example, this study discusses the challenges with existing academic affairs administration in colleges and universities. It discovers that the primary concerns are the large workload of class schedule management, the lack of data support for teaching inspection& teaching quality assessment, the redundant construction of multiple systems & multiple entrances, teachers' workload accounting is unclear, student safety issues and student mental health. We handle the difficulties one at a time as we create the platform, by establishing the institutional assurance system, integrating information service entrances and so on. Simultaneously, we focus on recommendations as exploring additional features, evaluating the effectiveness in various educational contexts, and adapting the platform to different institutions. As a consequence, those actions can make contributions such as improved top-level design, data effectiveness and scientific decision-making.
