The aim is to use digitalisation to demonstrate its impact on the development of universities in western China. More specifically, it aims to describe the effectiveness, perceptions, and achievements of respondents’ teaching competence in a digital media environment; determine the accuracy, quality, and outcomes of in-process performance; assess professional development in terms of knowledge and skills, improvement, and efficiency; and determine the effectiveness of respondents’ teaching competence in digital media environments, as well as differences in the responses of Chinese teachers to cognitive tests of teaching competence, performance, and professional development; To examine differences in teaching competence, performance, and professional development in digital contexts in universities in western China (grouped by personal information); to establish relationships among three variables (developmental, practical, and managerial); and to propose and improvement plan for digital teaching and learning.
