High‑Level Dialogue on Digital Literacy and Innovation Ability Enhancement at ICDEE

International Conference on Engineering Education Development (ICDEE) – High-Level Dialogue on Digital Literacy & Innovation Ability Enhancement

I was deeply honored to participate in the High‑Level Dialogue on Digital Literacy Cultivation and Innovation Ability Enhancement at the International Conference on Engineering Education Development (ICDEE)

Hosted by Tianjin University (TJU) in celebration of its 130th Anniversary. This prestigious session brought together global education leaders to discuss how engineering education can evolve to meet the demands of a rapidly changing, AI‑driven world.

The dialogue focused on critical questions shaping the future of education: how curricula should adapt in the era of large language models (LLMs) to foster innovation, and how digital literacy should be defined and cultivated to align with emerging intelligent industries.

Drawing from my work across industry, education, and creative technology, I shared perspectives on how AI, real‑time engines, procedural workflows, and automation are redefining teaching, learning, and knowledge creation.
