【中文摘要】：
数字技术与高等教育的深度融合助推高等教育研究加速数字化转向，但是数字技术在赋能高等教育研究的同时，也为其带来了潜在风险。对高等教育研究数字化转向的动因、表征及可能风险进行系统分析发现：高等教育科学发展的现实需求与数字技术的革新是推动高等教育研究数字化转向的关键动因。高等教育研究数字化转向主要表现为：研究主体从单一主体转变为多元化主体；研究客体从主观性问题逐渐向客观性问题转变；研究目的从探寻高等教育中的“因果关系”转变为探寻“相关性”；研究方法从定性分析转变为定量分析。高等教育研究数字化转向的潜在风险为：“数字利维坦”的出现、价值理性的缺失以及可能出现的数字伦理与安全问题等。人们需要时刻保持对上述潜在风险的清醒认识，以使数字技术更高效地赋能高等教育研究，促进高等教育学科建设。
【英文摘要】：
The deep integration of digital technology and higher education has accelerated the digital transformation of higher education research, but digital technology has also brought potential risks while empowering higher education research. This paper systematically analyzes the motivations, representations and possible risks of the digital transformation of higher education research and finds that: the realistic demand of the scientific development of higher education and the innovation of digital technology are the key factors driving the digital transformation of higher education research. The digital transformation of higher education research is mainly manifested in the following aspects: the research subject has changed from a single subject to diversified subjects; the research object has gradually changed from the subjective problem to the objective problem; the research purpose has changed from exploring "causality" to "correlation" in higher education; and the research method had changed from qualitative analysis to quantitative analysis. The potential risks of the digitization of higher education research are as follows: the emergence of "digital Leviathan", the absence of value rationality, and the possible problems of digital ethics and security. People need to be aware of the above potential risks so that digital technology can empower higher education research more efficiently and promote the construction of higher education disciplines.
