Abstract This study focuses on structural contradictions in traditional Operating Systems laboratory teaching, such as excessive emphasis on verification, insufficient industry alignment, and a single evaluation system, and conducts a systematic teaching reform in the context of digital transformation. By integrating PBL (Problem-Based Learning) with the 5E inquiry-based teaching model, it constructs a novel teaching loop of 'real-life scenario introduction — Tiered and stratified experiments — Data-driven intelligent assessment.' Empirical data show that this model effectively stimulates the learning motivation of students upgrading from junior college to undergraduate level, significantly enhances their system programming skills and ability to solve complex engineering problems, and provides a replicable practical paradigm for digital teaching reform in science and engineering courses at local application-oriented universities.

Abstract With the rapid development of social media, museums are increasingly engaging in digital heritage communication beyond traditional exhibition spaces. This study examines how Xi'an museums communicate cultural heritage on TikTok through a Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA) approach. Based on museum short videos, it analyzes how visual, linguistic, and audio modes construct meanings of historical authenticity, urban identity, and cultural representation. Findings show that museums employ multimodal strategies combining iconic artifacts, evaluative language, and cinematic visuals to construct cultural continuity and position Xi'an as both a historical and contemporary cultural city. TikTok's platform affordances further shape this communication through short-form storytelling, algorithmic visibility, and multilingual presentation, expanding audience engagement and transnational reach.

Abstract Woman image has been studied thoroughly from news, poetry, song lyrics to posts, but reviews have not got enough attention. This study took the perspective of feminist critical discourse analysis to analyze twenty American reviews and fifty-five Chinese reviews of Waitress: The Musical from 2023 to 2025 and identify the main themes. The reviews were categorized into four aspects: 1. job and success; 2. marriage and relationship; 3. sexual freedom; 4. pregnancy and motherhood. The study found that woman image constructed in Chinese and American reviews are similar at the aspect of job and success, marriage but differ at the aspect of pregnancy and motherhood, and this study made an attempt to explain the phenomenon to provide insight on how to analyze perceptions of social inequality, power abuse and discrimination in reviews.

Abstract This article adopts a corpus-assisted discourse studies approach to analyze the representations of the Chinese animated film Ne Zha 2 in one Chinese English-language media outlet (China Daily) and two U.S. media outlets (Deadline and Variety) between January and July 2025. The results show that Chinese and U.S. media share a consensus at the cognitive level, as both construct the film's meaning through dimensions such as box office performance, attributes of the animation industry, Chinese cultural resources, and markers of cultural identity. However, Chinese media are more inclined to present the film's commercial success through continuous quantitative indicators and industrial narratives, constructing Ne Zha 2 as a symbol of the development of China's animation industry and cultural confidence. By contrast, U.S. media place greater emphasis on evaluative and comparative language, positioning the film within the frameworks of the global animation market and transnational circulation, and highlighting its market performance and industrial significance as a non-Hollywood production, thereby displaying different discursive construction orientations.

Abstract This paper, within the context of digital cultural inheritance and dissemination , takes the "Mystery Realm" app as its research object to explore how it transforms and disseminates scenic area cultural symbols through immersive narrative design. The study focuses on users' cultural symbol recognition, emotional resonance, and dissemination behavior during immersive experiences, evaluating the app's effectiveness in cultural symbol recognition, user immersion experience, and interactive dissemination behavior. Using multidimensional data collection and analysis, it summarizes the app's dissemination modes, emotional resonance, and dissemination behavior from the perspectives of cultural memory mining and interactive behavior feedback. The "Mystery Realm" app, through contextualized narrative, interactive tasks, and multi-sensory symbol presentation, effectively transforms the static act of "viewing scenery" into a dynamic act of "storytelling," significantly enhancing users' perception of scenic area cultural symbols and their willingness to disseminate them. This paper, from the perspectives of cultural studies, semiotics, and communication studies, summarizes its immersive transformation mechanism and provides theoretical insights and practical pathways for digital cultural dissemination.

Abstract The swift expansion of the global film and TV industry has attracted more academics and regulators to pay attention to the ethics of creative narrative. This article examines film and television art ethics, creative narrative norms, and innovation mechanisms in the cultural creation industry. In accordance with ethical theory, media studies and industry practice; This paper argues that narrative representation cannot be separated from the broader transformation processes of cultural industries.: The paper identifies three central tensions: Creative freedom versus moral obligation, market demands versus cultural authenticity, and platform integration versus governmental regulation. It believes the only way for cultural creation companies to continuously innovate is through embedding ethics rather than rules after the fact. This paper synthesizes theories of framed narrative ethics, media morality, and cultural policy to propose a productive framework of ethical limitations. Empirical observations made on current film and television productions in Western as well as East Asia illustrate the real world importance of such an inquiry.

Abstract This study systematically analyzes the practical challenges and optimization pathways for the integrated development of university-community volunteer services in Guangdong Province based on the symbiosis theory framework. Findings indicate that current collaboration faces multidimensional difficulties, including inadequate matching of symbiotic units, inefficient symbiotic models, weak environmental support, and a lack of symmetrical reciprocal relationships. In response, this study proposes an integrated pathway centered on "Digital Empowerment—Platform Reconstruction—Institutional Synergy—Value Symbiosis." Through mechanism innovation and ecosystem cultivation, this approach facilitates the transformation of volunteer services from simple "resource matching" to profound "value co-creation," offering theoretical insights and practical paradigms for advancing modern social governance in the new era.

Abstract Data-intensive platforms must grow revenue while meeting rising expectations on privacy, user choice, brand safety and measurement. We conduct a qualitative, multi-case longitudinal study of Netflix, Amazon and TikTok (2024–2025), drawing primarily on first-party official materials (Help/Policy/Legal, Transparency, IR, Dev/Spec). Using structured coding and temporal bracketing, we identify a recurring sequence: Platforms first reduce friction with user-facing options and thresholds, then align delivery, experimentation and attribution, and finally fold workable combinations into version-governed defaults with rollback. The paper offers a process account of governance-as-capability, an auditable comparison frame (C1 choice/transparency; C2 supply-side tiering and partner governance; C3 measurement/ attribution), and design guidance—Predefined options, release discipline, and minimal interoperability anchors—That supports monetization under evolving privacy and disclosure requirements.

Abstract In order to adapt to the needs of digital transformation for the training of computer talents in vocational colleges and solve problems such as the disconnection between course teaching and industry and the solidification of models, this article conducts practical research on the reform of computer course teaching.The study sorted out the urgency of reform, and clarified the difficulties such as lagging curriculum content and insufficient digital literacy of teachers.Based on the idea of "determining teaching based on job position, promoting learning through practice, and promoting reform through evaluation", the reform was promoted from the four aspects of content, model, teachers,and evaluation. Practice has proven that the reform effectively improves the adaptability of courses to positions and students' digital skills.

Abstract The 17th century in England witnessed profound social transformation, during which the public identity of women gradually emerged. The outbreak of the English Civil War created new opportunities for female participation in public affairs. As the conflict undermined—And in many cases effectively erased— The traditional patriarchal image of the English father as the domestic patriarch, women in England partially filled the resulting vacuum of patriarchal authority. In doing so, they departed from prevailing social norms that confined women to the private sphere, stepping beyond the household to assert their right to engage in public political affairs. Through collective actions such as petitioning, they not only demanded political participation but also sought to reshape their own image and roles at both the personal and national levels. Nevertheless, the long-established tradition of British patriarchy, which systematically devalued women's status, meant that the women's petition movement achieved only limited success. Even so, the active involvement of English women in petitioning during the mid-17th century undeniably constituted a novel attempt at open engagement with national political affairs.

Abstract This paper constructs a systematic thinking model for novel plot logical deduction and dramatized logical deduction, realizing high-order coupling through multi-layer oscillation between plot and logical reasoning. Rooted in object texts, the model completes potential energy mapping, establishes a network of plot hierarchies and connotation extension, excavates implicit logical clues, and formulates rules including functional coupling and encryption mechanisms. It develops practical templates for curve trend reasoning, builds a logical interlocking network via multi-code coupling, integrates cross-disciplinary elements to generate hyperbolic resonance, and creates distinctive deduction paradigms such as the Ink Offensive and the Stratagem Within Stratagems. Compliant with the inherent logic and causality of all things, the model fosters divergent, convergent and integrative thinking capabilities. It offers a systematic deduction framework for cross-domain practices including artistic creation and examination question design, and taps inspirations for implicit plot logic in relevant creation and research.

Abstract During the late Qing dynasty, as Western learning spread eastward, modern Western technological artifacts entered Chinese society and collided sharply with traditional knowledge systems. Using lithographic line drawing as its medium, the Dianshizhai Pictorial (1884–1898) systematically visualized and locally re-signified technological objects such as trains, telegraphs, steamships, and microscopes, thereby formulating a dual translation strategy of "External Form" (Meixing) and "Internal Instrument" (Neiqi). At the formal level, the pictorial, grounded in traditional baimiao (plain line drawing) and integrating Western perspective, chiaroscuro, and compound focal composition, transformed unfamiliar mechanical forms into "visible forms" that aligned with indigenous aesthetics. At the cultural level, it employed the frameworks of Gezhi (investigation of things), Yin-Yang and the Five Phases, and Confucian ethics to decode scientific principles in accessible terms and reshape their value, thereby shifting the perception of Western technology from "strange and ingenious tricks" to "practical tools for statecraft and public welfare." This translational practice not only lowered cognitive barriers for the general public and enabled the popularization of scientific knowledge, but also built a cognitive bridge between Chinese and Western cultures. It became an important starting point for visual modernity in modern China and offers historical lessons for contemporary cross-cultural communication, science popularization, and the modern transformation of traditional culture.

Abstract This paper examines the changing narrative logic of individualism in North American superhero films from the classical period to the streaming media era. Instead of treating superhero films only as products of the entertainment industry, it focuses on how cinematic texts imagine the relationship between the self and the community. Through close reading of representative works, this paper argues that superhero narratives have moved through three major forms: Vertical salvation, identity anxiety, and relational individualism. This change does not mean that individualism has disappeared. Rather, superhero films have gradually shifted from celebrating the isolated savior to exploring responsibility, social identity, trauma, and emotional connection.

Abstract Shao Mi, one of the "Nine Friends of Painting" in the late Ming dynasty, developed a distinctive formal language centered on dry brush, light ink, a flat and extremely simplified composition, and the creation of mood through reserved white space (liubai zaojing). These elements together produce the unique aesthetic character that art history has called "lean, dry, and ethereal" (qing shou ku yi). Focusing on representative landscape works by Shao Mi, this paper analyzes, from three levels—Brush-and-ink technique, compositional paradigm, and artistic mood generation—His inheritance and personal transformation of the Yuan dynasty literati tradition. It reveals the high degree of unity between his brushand-ink language and spiritual conception, and elucidates the typical significance of Shao Mi's landscapes as a visual expression of the reclusive mentality of a commoner-literatus in the late Ming.

Abstract British period dramas usually present the class identity of different characters in front of the audience with various details before the name of the character appears. In many dramas that tell the story of rural life, the arrangement of staircases, dinner bells that announce meals, the uniforms worn by servants, and inherited estates, these elements can quickly let the audience see who has the power in their hands and who is in the position of needing obedience to service. This article uses the well-known film and television works "Downton Abbey", as well as the screen adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice" as an example, to specifically discuss the creative process of this display class. This article will analyze from a variety of angles, including the house pattern that appears in the story, the daily food specifications, the costumes worn by the characters, the etiquette norms followed every day, the consideration of the role in making marriage choices, and the rules of order within different families. The core point of this article is that these film and television works are not in the same way to re-enact the real British historical content. The creative team will specifically single out the part of the class life that is easy to be seen by the audience, convenient to remember, and at the same time, with the fun part of watching, and then bind these contents together with the polished and refined "British" image. This processed image is often bound by restrained personality, stable social order, long cultural tradition, elegant aesthetic taste and smooth social continuity. On the one hand, such images can help overseas audiences quickly identify the characteristics of British culture, and on the other hand, it will also make the real class hierarchy in history seem to be much more elegant and reasonable than the actual situation.

Abstract Pinterest is now widely used to look for ideas about family life, parenting, home decoration, food preparation, and everyday routines. Taking Pinterest as a case, this article discusses how images of motherhood are presented in the online visual culture of the United Kingdom and the United States. Many posts on the platform do more than offer practical advice. A clean kitchen, a carefully prepared lunch box, a calm parent-child activity, or a well-arranged children's room can gradually suggest what a "good mother" is expected to do. This article looks not only at the images themselves, but also at captions, tags, saved boards, and user interactions, in order to examine how motherhood is connected with order, patience, aesthetic taste, and family responsibility. It also compares the different emphases found in British and American content. Although both countries share certain middle-class ideals of motherhood, their posts still show different cultural preferences. From this perspective, Pinterest offers a useful case for understanding how gender roles are repeated, adjusted, and made visible in everyday digital life.

Abstract Cancel culture is now a familiar feature of online life in Anglo-American digital spaces. Sometimes it begins with a recent public comment; sometimes it comes from an old post, a screenshot, or a decision made by a public figure, company, or institution. After being shared and discussed repeatedly, the issue may no longer remain a single act of criticism, but turn into wider pressure from online users. This paper reads cancel culture through social psychology. Since it does not use questionnaire data or statistical testing, the discussion relies mainly on existing academic views and public examples. The main concern is how a personal reaction becomes collective pressure. Social identity, conformity, moral emotions, and group polarization are used to explain this change. Platform design is also part of the discussion. Recommendation systems and echo chambers may keep similar opinions in front of users, so anger and judgment can appear repeatedly. In some cases, cancel culture helps expose misconduct and forces powerful people or organizations to respond. In other cases, it moves too fast and damages a person's reputation before enough context is considered. This is why platform governance, public opinion literacy, and clearer rules for online discussion are still needed.
