Abstract

The improvements in digital technologies have changed societies in many ways. This process is commonly called “digital transformation.” Many sectors have been affected by digital transformation, including higher education institutions. Also, the COVID-19 pandemic, which started in 2019 in China, triggered the use of digital technologies in everyday activities and at every level of education. This chapter primarily presents the process of digital transformation in higher education by giving examples from various countries based on recent research, providing challenges of digital transformation of higher education, and then examining the challenges and reflections of the COVID-19 pandemic on the digital transformation of higher education. Lastly, the current situation is evaluated, and suggestions are proposed.
