Driven by national policies like the Education Informatization 2.0 Action Plan, the Guiding Opinions from the Ministry of Education and Five Other Departments on Advancing New Educational Infrastructure to Support High-Quality Development, and China Education Modernization 2035, the construction of digital campuses is quickly advancing across China.

To tackle challenges such as regional imbalances, the widening digital divide, and low returns on investment, the Regional Education Informatization Planning and Evaluation System offers comprehensive services to assess and guide education informatization development at the regional level. The system helps create evaluation indicators for digital campus progress and supports high-level planning and design for regional education informatization and smart education projects.

The system covers multiple areas, including the state of digital campus infrastructure, outcomes after construction, distribution of digital teaching resources, evaluation of digital education platform usage (see Figure 1), and the development of informatics assessment systems (see Figure 2). It enables ongoing monitoring and yearly evaluations of regional education informatization progress, providing data-driven insights to help local education authorities make informed plans and develop precise, effective policies.
