The paper examines the legal issues surrounding discrimination and affirmative action in American university admissions, with a focus on their impact on students of different races, genders, disabilities, and immigrant statuses. The research includes a thorough analysis of existing laws, cases, and university practices. It proposes seventeen guidelines for developing fair race-conscious admission policies.The study finds a complex legal landscape where universities struggle to balance fairness, diversity, and legal requirements. The proposed guidelines aim to enhance fairness in admissions without compromising academic integrity. The paper offers a unique contribution by synthesizing legal perspectives into actionable guidelines for universities, thereby addressing the challenges of maintaining diversity and equality in admissions processes.

This paper mainly focuses on the more effective way that language learners who “escaped” during the critical period of acquiring a second language. In the paper, we use the methodology of bibliography to compare the essential differences between children and adult learners from the perspectives of linguistics, neurolinguistics, society and culturology, and further study SLA theory based on the author’s own educational experience. It is an indisputable fact that older language learners have less flexibility and plasticity than children due to their mature brains. However, it can be partially compensated for by cognitive ability and social experience thus overtaking a corner. Nonetheless, some points are especially worth paying attention to, such as the necessity to “design” the grammar into the structure of the paragraph to be the “guiding framework” of thinking; Learners should not be excessively concerned about the accuracy of grammar and words at academic level, so as to avoid negative emotions such as anxiety, which affect language learning, and is partly consistent with the SLA’s Affective Filter Hypothesis. This research offers fresh guidelines for students and teachers of second languages to consider contemporary methods of teaching and learning, particularly the “fanatics” of “natural acquired” or “academically structured education.” Additionally, researchers and teachers who consider upgrading teaching methods offer evidence and inspiration owing to the growing popularity of artificial intelligence.

With the application of big data in the information age, the popularization of artificial intelligence and the coming of the network society, the traditional university education model has been severely impacted and challenged. It is an inevitable trend for higher education to adapt to the new social development reality and make corresponding adjustment and reform. Traditional university education pays attention to the imparts of theoretical knowledge and the cultivation of practical ability, but in the information age, students can get rich information and knowledge through the Internet, thus weakening the monopoly of traditional education. In addition, the popularity of artificial intelligence technology also means that some traditional teaching activities can be replaced by automation and intelligence, and the value chain of traditional education has been reshaped. The rise of the network society has also posed new challenges to the traditional university education model. The network society is characterized by a high degree of information sharing and exchange, and students can access various online educational resources and learning opportunities through the network platform. Therefore, traditional university education needs to find a new positioning and role, pay more attention to cultivating innovative ability, practical ability and teamwork ability, and provide students with more competitive comprehensive ability. Faced with these challenges, higher education must make corresponding adjustments and changes. The article carries out relevant research and puts forward specific countermeasures, mainly to update the educational concept, change the educational mode, and focus on cultivating students’ innovative thinking and problem-solving ability. It is necessary to develop diversified educational resources, meet social needs, strengthen cooperation with industries and enterprises, and provide professional education that matches market demand. At the same time, it is also necessary to actively develop online and distance education, make full use of online platforms and technological means, and provide flexible and diverse learning opportunities.

Interactive technology refers to the technology of realizing the dialogue between people and computers in an effective way through computer input and output equipment, which can greatly facilitate the work of various industries in China. Based on this, this paper takes the teaching of public art specialty as an example to discuss the teaching reform method in combination with interactive technology. This paper lists the value of interactive technology in public art teaching, the current situation of low application rate, lack of equipment and unbalanced teaching content, and the improvement methods by strengthening teacher training, introducing equipment and standardizing the use of technology.

With the development of information technology and modernization, the limitations of the traditional teaching mode of “teacher teaching-students listen” are becoming more and more obvious, which is mainly manifested in the low motivation of students in class, insufficient time for students to devote to class, and the quality and effect of teaching in general. In this context, this project is based on the non-accounting majors in Beijing Wuzi University, relying on the platform of “Rain Classroom”, to build a “flipped classroom” of accounting based on “Rain Classroom”, which combines online and offline teaching, builds a friendly interactive relationship between teaching and learning, and fully mobilizes students’ motivation to improve the quality and effect of teaching, so as to provide a certain reference for improving the informatization and upgrading level of higher education.

Academic burnout is becoming a prominent issue among adolescents, impacting their mental health and overall academic performance. This paper aims to review the effectiveness of group psychoeducation and expressive arts therapy interventions in addressing academic burnout in this population. Through an exploration of various studies and empirical evidence, this review provides an overview of the positive outcomes achieved by these interventions. While more research is needed to establish the long-term effects and generalizability of the findings, preliminary results suggest that both group psychoeducation and expressive arts therapy can be valuable tools in reducing academic burnout among adolescents.

As an important type of education for cultivating high-quality technical and skilled talents, vocational education provides significant human capital support for the high-quality development of the economy. Based on panel data from 30 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) in China from 2005 to 2020, this study employs the Malmquist productivity index to measure Total Factor Productivity (TFP). Using a two-way fixed effects and mediation effects model, the study empirically analyzes the impact and mechanisms of vocational education on TFP. The results show that the expansion of higher vocational education has a more significant effect on TFP growth compared to secondary vocational education, with a particularly pronounced influence in the eastern and western regions. The analysis of the mediating mechanisms reveals that human capital and technological innovation are important pathways through which vocational education promotes TFP growth. Therefore, to achieve high-quality development of vocational education and enhance TFP growth, it is recommended to moderately expand the scale, improve the vocational education training system, increase support for vocational education to narrow regional disparities, promote the integration of vocational education with industry to enhance the conversion rate of technological innovation, shift the focus from scale expansion to internal improvement, and promote regional coordinated development.
