Adopting a macro‑meso‑micro framework, this book explores the recent developments of digital transformation in Chinese education.

From a macro perspective, this book examines the sociocultural background and policy environment of China’s educational digital transformation. At the meso level, it analyzes the dynamics and challenges of educational digitalization within the context of regional equity. Finally, it examines the impact of digital technologies on school practices at the micro level. By delving into the driving forces behind the digital transformation of education in China, and assessing its empowerment of regional equity and its impact on educational practices, this book will provide theoretical and practical support for future educational reforms and offer insights into the digital transformation of education in other developing countries.

This book will attract academic researchers of educational technology and policy, policymakers, and educational administrators.
