Abstract

With the deepening of the digital and intelligent transformation of higher education, the efficiency of administrative management and teaching practice in colleges and universities has been improved. However, the resulting technological dependence also brings profound ethical dilemmas. From the perspective of human subjectivity and reflective rationality, this study explores the phenomenon of alienation in the digitalization of colleges and universities. The study found that excessive technological dependence affects people 's subjectivity in educational practice, leading to data worship and the alienation of educational labor. In order to cope with these challenges, it is necessary to reconstruct the logic of educational practice, restore the essence of educational labor, and ensure that the subject of education maintains its dominant position in the intelligent era, so as to realize the free and complete development of individuals.
