Paper Title :: The Path of Integrating Personalized Strength Training into University Physical Education Teaching
Author Name :: Zheyu Jin || Hamdan Mohd Ali
Country :: Malaysia
Page Number :: 01-08
This study addresses the critical challenge of integrating Personalized Strength Training (PRT) into large-scale University Physical Education (UPE) teaching to counteract students' increasing physical heterogeneity and prevalent functional deficiencies. The traditional, standardized UPE model fails to adequately serve diverse individual needs and often neglects crucial functional movement assessment and injury prevention. This research constructs a systematic three-path framework to guide the reform. Path I proposes a data-driven system centered on scientific assessment (e.g., FMS) and dynamic personalized prescription using intelligent platforms to ensure training safety and efficacy. Path II advocates for a blended learning model and teacher role redefinition, transforming instructors into "exercise prescribers" supported by specialized training and online resources. Path III \ focuses on inter-departmental collaboration (PE-IT-Medical) and an integrated, process-oriented assessment system that prioritizes the improvement of students' functional movement and health literacy over mere compliance. Implementing this comprehensive path is essential for UPE to transition towards a scientific, student-centered, and health-literacy-focused paradigm, effectively meeting the lifelong health demands of modern society.

Owing to Ferdinand de Saussure‟s Course in General Linguistics (1915) and the inauguration of French structuralism in the 1950s by Claude Levi Strauss and many others of the class including members of Russian formalist, especially Roman Jakobson, established the literary movement which entails the practice of critics analysing literature on the explicit mode of structuralist linguistics. The importance stance on the structure in the very name of the movement “Structuralism”. As to the structure, it the structure of the poetic language; the form of expressions applied in literature. In the expositions provided by Saussure‟s Course in general Linguistics, it renders the concept that the elementary cultural phenomena like the elements of language , being purely rational entities , derives its identity from the relationship of differences and binary opposition to other elements within the cultural system. In addition, its exposition includes the notion that each individual person in a given community associated with similar culture, unconsciously has mastered the entire mechanism of internal relationship and “of codes” that produce significant combination.

Paper Title :: Digital Transformation in Higher Education Sector in India
Author Name :: Dr. Munawwer Husain || Dr. Mandeep Kaur
Country :: India
Page Number :: 27-32
The fourth industrial revolution and the development of artificial intelligence are changing the way we work and learn Globally, institutions of higher learning have positioned themselves in line with quality standards and trendsetters. Higher education institutions may face a variety of difficulties, such as significant changes in funding sources brought about by extensive structural changes in the economy that necessitate greater accountability at all levels and the pressing need to adopt modern technology in order to increase effectiveness and efficiency. India is not an exception to the global issues that the Covid epidemic has brought forth for higher education. Many students who hoped to continue their education in prestigious colleges in India and other nations have had their hopes dashed by the pandemic, in a nation where many still lack access to higher education. Although it is no longer novel, online learning is increasingly required in India. The manner that education is transmitted has undergone a significant transformation in the past several months. While some colleges quickly adopted the shift, others found it difficult because they lacked the necessary technical know-how and fundamental infrastructure to switch to online instruction. This study aims to provide an overview of the unique features of the digital transformation implementation process that have occurred in the higher education industry. The primary conclusions demonstrate that it is, in fact, a developing field in India's educational system. In order to gather secondary data for different sources of data analysis and concepts, this study collected data.

Paper Title :: Emerging Adults’ Strategies and Methods for Overcoming Stressful Situations and Challenges

Forty-five young adults attending a large public university provided information on the most challenging or stressful situations they have experienced, and the strategies employed to overcome those situations. Using an inductive, qualitative, non-theory-based (even a-theoretical) approach with a very small sample, we replicated the findings of much larger hypothesis- and theory-driven quantitative studies. Strategies for overcoming stressful or challenging situations included: support from others, religious or faith-based strategies, personal-action strategies, and cognitive strategies. While results of the study were consistent with previous work on stressful, challenging situations and methods used in overcoming those situations, the study makes an excellent case for not discounting or minimizing the utility and power of inductive, qualitative research. Results, methodology, and implications are discussed.

Paper Title :: The Challenging Factors Affecting the Successful Development of Private Universities in Ji Lin Province, China
Author Name :: Yu Wan Yu || Raja Azrul Hisham Raja Ahmad

Page Number :: 42-49
This dissertation examines the key factors influencing the successful development of private universities in Jilin Province, China. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study integrates survey data from 150 teachers and qualitative interviews to investigate how teaching conditions, management practices, and humanistic care affect teacher team development and institutional growth. The research highlights persistent challenges in private universities, including unstable faculty teams, insufficient professional development, weak management systems, and limited humanistic support. Regression and correlation analyses show that teaching conditions—such as workload, resources, and professional development—along with management factors—such as leadership effectiveness, governance, and evaluation systems—strongly predict university development outcomes. Humanistic care, including salary, work-life balance, and emotional support, also contributes significantly to teacher satisfaction and retention, though with a slightly weaker effect. The study further identifies differences between for-profit and not-for-profit private universities in resource allocation and human resource strategies. The findings provide theoretical insights grounded in School-Based Management, Rational Choice Theory, and Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, as well as practical recommendations for enhancing governance, improving faculty management, and strengthening support systems. Overall, the research emphasizes that high-quality faculty development is essential for achieving sustainable growth and competitiveness in private higher education.
