Abstract: Educational digitalization represents a pivotal initiative in advancing teaching methodology reforms and cultivating innovative, high-caliber talent. The establishment of a virtual teaching and research platform enables the transcendence of temporal and spatial constraints, facilitating high-quality, regionally interconnected education that caters to students' diverse and personalized learning needs. This approach serves as a fundamental driver in promoting educational digitalization. This study, using the construction of the Virtual Teaching and Research Department for Wood Science and Engineering at Northeast Forestry University as a case study, proposes a methodological framework for developing a digital system for chemical engineering courses. It further explores the “dual carbon” talent cultivation model in forestry engineering and evaluates the pedagogical outcomes achieved through the implementation of educational digitalization.
