| Impact of School-based Oral Health Education on Vietnamese Adolescents: a 6-month Study | , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | ADOLESCENT; HEALTH EDUCATION; ORAL HYGIENE; SECONDARY SCHOOLS; VIETNAM; | We have evaluated the impact of a school-based intervention on oral health knowledge, behaviours, and oral health status of adolescents in vietnam. This 6-month study included 462 adolescents aged 12 years from four selected schools in hue city, vietnam. The intervention group received a 15-min lecture by a dentist and hands-on session on mouth observation and toothbrush-ing skills. The control group did not engage in any educational activities during the follow-up pe-riod. Data were collected at baseline and 6 months through a survey questionnaire and clinical ex-amination. The debris index was used for dental plaque; the papillary, marginal, attached gingiva index for gingivitis; and the decayed, missing, and filled teeth index (world health organization modification) for dental caries. Difference-in-difference analysis was used to compare changes between the groups. After 6 months, the control tended to show decreased toothbrushing frequency and increased dental plaque accumulation. The participants in the intervention group showed improved oral health knowledge (p <0.01), Behavior (p < 0.05), And hygiene (p < 0.001) Compared to the control group. However, the intervention did not improve dental caries and gingivitis. A single school-based oral health education program can help adolescents improve oral health knowledge and prevent the deterioration of short-term oral health behavior and hygiene. 2021 By the authors.

| First Steps Towards Intercultural Education in Vietnam: Exploring Primary Education Teachers Level of Intercultural Competence [primeros Pasos Hacia Una Educacin Intercultural En Vietnam: Explorando La Competencia Intercultural De Los Maestros De Primaria] | HOI DD, | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTERIO DE CIENCIA E INNOVACINMINISTERIO DE CIENCIA E INNOVACIN | INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE; INTERCULTURAL EDUCATION; PRIMARY TEACHERS; VIETNAM; | Improving teachers intercultural competence is one of the keys for successful implementation of intercultural education. This paper explores vietnamese primary education teachers level of intercultural competence as one of the first steps towards intercultural education in this country. The iss-15 questionnaire was used to collect data from 70 teachers working in different schools and english centres in hanoi city. Data were analysed through descriptive statistics: one-way anova and kruskal-wallis test. Results show homogeneity although teachers backgrounds and working contexts are varied. Teachers show high degrees of interaction engagement and enjoyment as well as respect for cultural differences. However, their levels of interaction confidence and attentiveness are moderate. Our conclusions suggest that teachers need to develop their intercultural competence (ic), especially in terms of practice skills. They demand to implement intercultural education (ie) in vietnamese schools, as well as to help citizens realize its outstanding role for the necessary socioeconomic changes of the country nowadays. 2021 Fundacion infancia y aprendizaje. | |
| Awareness of Education University’s Preschool Students About the Impact of 4.0 Industrial Revolution in Education and Role of Stem Education in Teaching | HOI DD, | 2021 | CONFERENCE PAPER |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTERIO DE CIENCIA E INNOVACINMINISTERIO DE CIENCIA E INNOVACIN | The article talks about the awareness of preschool students about the impact of the 4.0 Industrial revolution in education. Research results show that: most of the students in the university and college of education are aware of the importance and impacts of the 4.0 Industrial revolution in education in general and in the changes of goals, contents, methods, and forms from the impact of 4.0 Industrial revolution. However, there still have been sparities between students of universities and colleges of education, which show that students at universities of education are better aware of the others at the college of education. And, there are still some students who are not really aware of the changes in the goals, contents, methods and forms of education from the impacts of the 4.0 Industrial revolution. However, stem education also significantly affects the change of teaching methods, towards interdisciplinary teaching and development of learners skills through many experiential activities to adapt and integrate.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ATTITUDES; MEDICAL TRAINING; NETWORK ANALYSIS; PSYCHOLOGICAL BELIEFS; VIETNAMESE STUDENTS; | MEDICAL STUDENTS EXPERIENCE EXTENSIVE PRESSURE DURING THEIR UNDERGRADUATE COURSES. GIVEN THE COMPLEX ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS IN ASSOCIATION WITH ACADEMIC PRESSURE. WE INVESTIGATED THE STUDY WITH OBJECTIVES: TO EXAMINE PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS RELATED TO ACADEMIC PRESSURE BY ANALYSING INTERACTIONS BETWEEN STUDY MOTIVATION, STUDY ENVIRONMENT, STUDY CONDITIONS, TEACHER QUALITY, TRAINING PROGRAMME, MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, EVALUATION, AND EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES USING A NETWORK ANALYSIS APPROACH. A TOTAL OF 878 MEDICAL STUDENTS MAJORING IN GENERAL MEDICINE FROM THE FIRST, THIRD, AND FIFTH YEARS OF A SIX-YEAR COURSE AT THE LARGEST MEDICAL UNIVERSITY IN CENTRAL AND HIGHLAND REGIONS OF VIETNAM WERE INVOLVED IN THIS CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY. THE APPROACH USED WAS CONVENIENT CLUSTER SAMPLING WITH A SELF-ADMINISTERED QUESTIONNAIRE BY THE PARTICIPANTS. NETWORK ANALYSIS FOR PAIRWISE CORRELATIONS BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS WAS ESTIMATED. IMPORTANT FACTORS IN THE NETWORK ANALYSIS WERE CALCULATED USING CENTRALITY INDICES INCLUDING NODE STRENGTH (S), CLOSENESS (C), AND BETWEENNESS (B). THE HIGHER SCORE OF S, C, AND B INDICATE THE MORE IMPORTANCE OF THE NODE. THE RESULTS OBTAINED FROM THE NETWORK ANALYSIS OF EIGHT PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS SHOWED THAT TEACHING QUALITY WAS MOSTLY CONNECTED WITH OTHER FACTORS OVERALL, WHILE THE TRAINING PROGRAMME WAS SEEN IN BOTH GENDERS AND FRESHMAN STUDENTS. STUDY CONDITIONS AND TRAINING PROGRAMME WERE MOSTLY CONNECTED WITH OTHER FACTORS IN JUNIOR AND SENIOR STUDENTS, RESPECTIVELY. THE STRONG PAIRWISE CORRELATION WAS CONFIRMED: MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND EVALUATION ACTIVITY, FOLLOWED BY STUDY ENVIRONMENT AND STUDY CONDITIONS, AND TEACHING QUALITY AND TRAINING PROGRAMME. ADDITIONALLY, NODES WITH HIGH CENTRALITY WERE SHOWN TO BE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (S=0.97, C =0.019, B =1), AND TRAINING PROGRAMME (S=0.96, C =0.021, B =4). OUR STUDY FINDINGS INDICATE THAT SATISFACTION WITH THE TRAINING PROGRAMME AMONGST EIGHT PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR AFFECTING ACADEMIC PRESSURE AMONG MEDICAL STUDENTS. THE TRAINING PROGRAMME IS LINKED WITH TEACHING QUALITY, WHEREAS THE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS CORRELATED WITH EVALUATION ACTIVITY. 2021 THE AUTHOR(S).

| DEVELOPING PRIMARY STUDENTS UNDERSTANDING OF MATHEMATICS THROUGH MATHEMATIZATION: A CASE OF TEACHING THE MULTIPLICATION OF TWO NATURAL NUMBERS | , , , , | 2022 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | INNUMERACY; MATHEMATIZATION; MULTIPLICATION OF TWO NATURAL NUMBERS; REALISTIC MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; | NUMERACY IS ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL COMPETENCIES THAT THE OBJECTIVES OF TEACHING MATH TO PRIMARY STUDENTS SHOULD BE TOWARDS. HOWEVER, MANY RESEARCH FINDINGS SHOW THAT THE PROBLEM OF INNUMERACY FREQUENTLY EXISTS AT PRIMARY SCHOOLS. THAT MEANS CHILDREN STILL DO NOT FEEL AT HOME IN THE WORLD OF NUMBERS AND OPERATIONS. THEREFORE, THE PAPER AIMS TO APPLY THE REALISTIC MATHEMATICS EDUCATION (RME) APPROACH TO TACKLING THE PROBLEM OF INNUMERACY, IN THE CASE OF TEACHING THE MULTIPLICATION OF TWO NATURAL NUMBERS TO PRIMARY STUDENTS. WE CONDUCTED A PEDAGOGICAL EXPERIMENT WITH 46 GRADE 2 STUDENTS WHO HAVE NOT STUDIED THE MULTIPLICATION YET. THE PEDAGOGICAL EXPERIMENT LASTED IN SIX LESSONS, INCLUDED SEVEN ACTIVITIES AND NINE WORKSHEETS WHICH ARE DESIGNED ACCORDING TO FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF RME BY RESEARCHERS. THIS IS MAINLY A QUALITATIVE STUDY. BASED ON DATA OBTAINED FROM CLASSROOM OBSERVATIONS AND STUDENTS RESPONSE ON WORKSHEETS, UNDER THE PERSPECTIVE OF RME, THE ARTICLE POINTED OUT HOW MATHEMATIZATION PROCESSES TOOK PLACE THROUGHOUT STUDENTS' ACTIVITIES, THEIR ATTITUDES TOWARDS MATH LEARNING, AND THEIR LEARNING OUTCOMES. THE STUDY RESULTS FOUND THAT STUDENTS WERE MORE INTERESTED IN MATH LEARNING AND UNDERSTOOD THE CONCEPTS OF MULTIPLICATION OF TWO NATURAL NUMBERS. 2022 THE AUTHOR(S). | |

| Practical Investigating of Stem Teaching Competence of Pre -service Chemistry Teachers in Vietnam | , , | 2021 | CONFERENCE PAPER |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | The vietnam's new general education curriculum is transferring from content orientation to students' capacity and quality development orientation. Stem (is acronym words of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education contributes to the development of 21st century skills of students. In order to successfully implement stem education, in addition to leaders, managers and programmers, teachers have an important role in directly building and organizing stem education. And pre-service teachers need to be trained to deal with complexities of education. The purpose of this research is to assess the pre-service chemistry teachers? Existing stem teaching capacity in vietnam. Research method was survey through a set of unstructured and structured questions, and participants of this research are 57 pre-service chemistry teachers (who are 3rd and 4th grade learners of 5 universities of education representing all three regions of vietnam). Content analysis was used to analyze the data from unstructured questions while the data from structured questions were transformed into frequency, percentage and descriptive statistic analyze. The findings indicated that most of participants have conceptualized the aspects of stem in accordance with a number of researches in the world. However, they were less capable in designing their teaching stem and performing teaching stem in the classroom, beside assessment abilities were not good and lack diversity. They also suggested that there should be a specific guide material on how to design and conduct stem teaching. Therefore, the study also suggested measures to develop stem teaching competences for pre - service chemistry teachers in vietnam: 1) redesign the teacher training program to include stem educational modules, 2) provide stem teaching instruction modules from stem fields in chemistry, and 3) combine blended learning approach to enhance their ict ability.

| Contraceptive Discontinuation and Switching in Urban Istanbul Region in Turkey | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CONTRACEPTIVE DISCONTINUATION; CONTRACEPTIVE USE EPISODE; METHOD FAILURE; TURKEY; | Objective: to evaluate rates of contraceptive discontinuation and method switching and examine their determinants in istanbul, turkey, because discontinuation of modern contraception leading to unintended pregnancy is a public health concern. Methods: we conducted a cross-sectional household survey between march and june 2018 among 4224 married women of reproductive age (1644years). Information on contraceptive use and discontinuation for the 31months preceding the survey was recorded in a monthly calendar. Using single and multiple decrement life-table methods, we calculated the overall discontinuation and the cause-specific discontinuation rates. Results: the 12-month overall discontinuation rate was 12.32%. Intrauterine devices had the lowest discontinuation rate (7.12%). The most common reasons for discontinuation were the desire to become pregnant (6.56%) And method failure (2.76%). One in three episodes of discontinuation was not followed by method switching (32.16%). Age, education, and the method type were predictive of contraceptive discontinuation. Conclusion: to reduce method failure, women should be provided with information about method effectiveness, correct use of methods, and what to do if they anticipate their method failed (e.G., Emergency contraception). Programs should focus on improving knowledge about discontinuation and method failure. Contraceptive counseling should also emphasize timely switching to an effective method after discontinuation. 2021 International federation of gynecology and obstetrics | |

| Digitalization of the Educational Environment: Risk Assessment of Distance Education by Russian and Vietnamese Students | , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | DIGITALIZATION OF EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT; DISTANCE EDUCATION; HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM; ONLINE EDUCATION; RISKS OF ONLINE EDUCATION; STUDENTS OF RUSSIA AND VIETNAM; STUDENTS' ATTITUDE; | The digitalization of higher education is a long-term trend that gained a new impetus for further development because of the forced transition to distance learning during the covid-19 pandemic. The aim of the article is to analyze the impact of digital transformation on the educational process in universities and to describe the risks through the students' eyes. The analysis is based on the results of a survey conducted by the authors in 2020 among students of two universities - moscow state institute of international relations (mgimo) and the institute of the trade union movement of the general confederation of labor of vietnam (iplv). The article describes the methodology of the online survey. The attitude towards distance learning is interpreted as a three-level attitude with emotional, cognitive and behavioral aspects. It is suggested that students' readiness to switch to distance learning is determined by a set of macro and micro factors. Among the macro factors are the national specifics of the educational system, traditions in the field of higher education, infrastructure, the national educational policy, and the mobilization potential of the population. Among the micro factors are the cognitive and other psychological characteristics of the students, the socio-psychological openness to innovation. According to the survey results, there is certain similarity in the way russian and vietnamese students assess their experience of distance learning. At the same time, significant differences in the perception of the outcome of the digital transformation of education have been revealed. For mgimo students, major risks are associated with dehumanization, the severing of social ties, and the possible loss of student status. For vietnamese students the most significant risks are mainly associated with the fears of the decreasing quality of education. It is therefore concluded that distance learning is both the field of opportunities and possible source of individual and institutional risks. 2021 Moscow polytechnic university.

| Alice in Suicideland: Exploring the Suicidal Ideation Mechanism Through the Sense of Connectedness and Help-seeking Behaviors | , , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | BAYESIAN INFERENCE; HELP-SEEKING BEHAVIOR; MINDSPONGE; SENSE OF CONNECTEDNESS; SUICIDAL IDEATION MECHANISM; TRANSCULTURAL PSYCHIATRY; | On average, one person dies by suicide every 40 s. However, extant studies have largely focused on the risk factors for suicidal behaviors, not so much on the formation of suicidal thoughts. Therefore, we attempt to explain how suicidal thoughts arise and persist inside ones mind using a multifiltering information mechanism called mindsponge. Bayesian analysis with hamiltonian markov chain monte carlo (mcmc) technique was run on a dataset of multinational students (n = 268) of an international university in japan. Item 9 in the phq-9 was used to survey suicidal ideation. The associations among four main variables, namely, (i) suicidal ideation, (ii) help-seeking willingness (informal and formal sources), (iii) sense of connectedness, and (iv) information in-accessibility (represented by being international students), were tested in four models. Sense of connectedness is negatively associated with suicidal ideation, but its effect becomes less impactful when interacting with international students. The impact of a sense of connectedness on informal help-seeking willingness (toward family members) among international students is also lessened. Informal help-seeking is negatively associated with suicidal ideation, whereas formal help is positive. The findings support our assumption on three fundamental conditions for preventing suicidal thoughts: (i) a high degree of belongingness, (ii) accessibility to help-related information, and (iii) healthy perceived cultural responses towards mental health. Therefore, systematically coordinated programs are necessary to effectively tackle suicidal ideation. 2021 By the authors. Licensee mdpi, basel, switzerland. | |

| Higher Education Expansion and Labor Market Outcomes: the Case of Vietnam | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EXPANSION; HIGHER EDUCATION; LABOUR ECONOMICS; LABOUR MARKET; VIETNAM; | This study investigates how dramatic increase of university and college graduates affects labor market outcomes. Using a series of seven repeated cross sections of the vietnam household living standards surveys, this paper analyzed the changes in the rate of returns to higher education attainment along with the increased supply of university and college graduates due to the higher education expansion throughout the 20022014 period. The study utilized a ratio of number of university and college students to the number of upper-secondary pupils within each province as an instrumental variable to calculate the effects of higher education expansion on the labor wage. The study found that, with the basic equations, the coefficients for higher education attainment are statistically significant and have positive values for the whole period. Our instrumental variables were found to be valid. For instrumental variable estimation, the return to higher education in iv earning equations was quite high. The findings of this study suggested that the expansion of the higher education system in vietnam during 20022014 had positive effects on wages for those who increased their education attainment due to the reforms and there was a declining trend of the returns to higher education toward the end of the period.

| Multilingual Sources Used for Research Dissemination: Positioning of Vietnamese Researchers | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ACADEMIC POSITIONING; MULTILINGUAL RESEARCHERS; RESEARCH DISSEMINATION; VIETNAMESE SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCHERS; | Given the role of languages in disseminating knowledge, this study explored the positioning of vietnamese researchers in relation to the foreign language they used for research. Data were collected from semi-structured interviews with six participants who were researchers in social sciences. Findings revealed that senior researchers positioned russian and french as an ebbing tradition while the mid-career researcher considered chinese providing less access to research. In contrast, early-career academics saw english as bringing great opportunities to their career despite expressing their anxiety about their proficiency in using english for publication. We argue that although disseminating knowledge in english amongst younger generation researchers is important, senior researchers in educational systems influenced by multiple languages should still be encouraged to capitalise on their existing multilingual capacity, using their preferable foreign languages to disseminate knowledge globally. Instead of solely conforming to the hegemony of english, policies and practices of research should consider multilingual sources in policymaking process. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| English as a Double Barrier: English Medium Instruction and Student Learning at Vietnamese Transnational Universities | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ENGLISH MEDIUM INSTRUCTION; STUDENT LEARNING; TRANSNATIONAL EDUCATION; VIETNAM; | Transnational education and english medium instruction (emi) has grown in asia in response to rapid globalisation. As a result, vietnam has invested in creating new model universities that partner with international institutions as a way to supply the demand for quality higher education. Yet, few studies examine the influence of emi on student learning, particularly within the vietnamese context. The purpose of this grounded theory study is to examine the influence of emi on the learning experiences of students attending three transnational universities in vietnam. Based on participants experiences, a model was created that highlighted specific areas that affected student learning: speaking and writing english in classes, limitations of instructors speaking english, and the double barrier of english language, and discipline-based concepts learning at transnational universities. Recommendations for practice include creating intentional out-of-class learning opportunities and promoting active learning strategies as ways to facilitate student learning at transnational universities who use emi. 2021 Herdsa. | |
| Vietnamese Early Career Academics Identity Work: Balancing Tensions Between East and West | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | COLLECTIVISM; COLLEGIALITY; CONFUCIANISM; CULTURE; IDENTITY; IDENTITY WORK; | Through a narrative analysis of 33 interviews with vietnamese early career academics, we explore whether a confucianist/collectivist academic context in vietnam has a key influence on academics identity work, within the embrace of encroaching managerialist practices. We show how these academics from 11 universities negotiated identity alignment and identity tensions between such cultural orientation and managerialism. On the one hand, a confucianist ethic underpinning higher education in vietnam is likely to encourage academics to engage in managerialist practices, as it promotes harmony and loyalty to their respective university and its global, excellence goals. On the other hand, a cultural underpinning of collegiality can create tension with the individualist nature of managerialist practices. Our recommendations for universities in a similar context are to adapt the more individualistic performative approaches borrowed from the west by crafting their own collegiate, soft managerialist hybrid practices. 2021 Society for research into higher education. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | BAYESIAN ANALYSIS; ECONOMICS DISCIPLINE; SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION; SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHING; VIETNAM; | Economic research is vital for creating more suitable policies to facilitate economic growth. Employing a combination of descriptive and bayesian analyses, this paper investigates the research landscape of the economics discipline in vietnam, in particular, the leading affiliations in the field and how these institutions compare to each other in terms of productivity, the number of lead authors, new authors and publications' journal impact factor. We also examine the differences in the authors' productivity based on their age and gender. The dataset extracted from the sshpa database includes 1,444 articles. The findings show that among top producers of economic research in vietnam, seven are universities, leaving only one representative of research institutes. These top producers account for 52% of research output among 178 institutes recorded in the database. We also find a correlation between a researcher's affiliation, sex, and scientific productivity in vietnam's economic discipline. Overall, publications by male researchers outnumber those by female ones in most of the top affiliations. The findings also indicate that 4044 is the age group with the highest scientific productivity. Researchers' collaboration, which is observed through co-authorship, is on the rise in all of the top eight economic research affiliations. However, the quality of current vietnam's scientific works in the discipline is questionable. Therefore, it is suggested that in order to sustain scientific productivity, economic researchers might need to balance the quantity and quality of their contributions.Scientific collaboration; scientific publishing; economics discipline; vietnam; bayesian analysis. 2021 The author(s) | |

| Investigating the Impacts of Core Educational Quality on the Satisfaction and Loyalty of Parents of Secondary School Students: the Mediating Role of Transformative Quality | , , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CORE EDUCATIONAL QUALITY; LOYALTY; PARENT; SATISFACTION; SECONDARY EDUCATION; TRANSFORMATIVE QUALITY; | As competition in the secondary education market grows, increasing service quality to ensure parents satisfaction and loyalty is crucial to the future success of secondary schools. As parents of secondary school students (pasess) are not the direct recipients of educational service, the main goal of this research was to investigate the mediating role of transformative quality between assessment of core educational quality and parents satisfaction and loyalty. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data collected from 209 pasess in vietnam. The results showed that, similar to previous research, satisfaction is the strongest determinant of loyalty. Attitude and behavior were the only components of core educational quality that had a direct impact on loyalty. The findings also revealed that the relationship between competence and curriculum and core educational quality and loyalty is mediated by transformative quality and satisfaction. The practical implications and theoretical contributions of the research findings are also discussed. 2021 The author(s).

Tiếng Anh | IRISH AIDIRISH AID ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL RESEARCH INSTITUTEECONOMIC AND SOCIAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE | RELATIVE LABOUR DEMAND; RETURNS TO EDUCATION; SKILL-BIASED TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE; VIETNAM; VIETNAM HOUSEHOLD LIVING STANDARDS SURVEY (VHLSS) DATA; | Using data from the vietnam household living standards survey (vhlss), this paper examines the returns to education in vietnam in 2002, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2016, and how these returns have changed over time. The returns to educations of men and women displayed a linear pattern in 2002, 2008 and 2010, with earnings rising with increased levels of education. The 2002 to 2010 period was one which saw particularly rapid increases in both the growth of educated labour supply and the returns to schooling for both males and females. The results also suggest that there existed substantial excess demand for male and female graduate labour over the period. However, the situation changed radically during the 2010 to 2012 period, despite the economy continuing to grow, the supply of educated labour expanded at a much slower rate and the wage premiums to education declined. Consequently, during 2010 to 2012 any excess demand for educated labour was eliminated in both the male and female labour markets. The results show that the nature of labour demand altered rapidly during the 2010 to 2016 period, with the relative demand for educated labour slowing substantially, which suggests that the trajectory of the vietnamese economy has not recently been driven by a growth in higher value-added firms demanding ever higher quantities of educated labour. The periods 2012 to 2016 saw some stabilisation in the labour market, with the returns to education remaining relatively unchanged, albeit at a much lower level compared to 2010, and increases in the supply of educated workers to the labour market much lower than before. The study raises important policy questions regarding the future direction of policy approaches to both skills and fdi in vietnam. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

| There’s a Much Bigger World of Science Than Just Australia’: Australian Students Development of Disciplinary Knowledge, Transferable Skills and Attributes Through a New Colombo Plan Short-term Mobility Program to Japan | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | DISCIPLINARY KNOWLLEDGE; EMPLOYABILITY; HIGHER EDUCATION; INDO-PACIFIC; JAPAN; LEARNING ABROAD; NEW COLOMBO PLAN; STUDENT MOBILITY; | One in four australian undergraduate students participates in learning abroad during their study. Since 2012, faculty-led mobility programmes have overtaken exchange programs to become the most popular outbound mobility type in australia. However, little has been known about how faculty-led short-term mobility programmes affect students employability and what might be the benefits of australian science students participation in this type of mobility in the indo-pacific. This article analyses how a faculty-led programme in science to japan affects its participants employability, from the perspectives of students participating in a new colombo plan mobility program funded by the australian government. The study found that it was changes in the students guided learning circumstance as they navigated the transient space in off-track locations in japan that enabled them to learn new disciplinary knowledge, acquire transferable skills, accumulate real-life indo-pacific experiences and develop empathy and cultural understandings. Despite the development of these qualities, the study found challenges facing students to link knowledge-skill-attribute development to employability. The article discussed implications for developing a more systemic and coordinated approach across the curriculum, career support unit and global mobility office to integrate learning abroad experiences into pedagogy and career counselling service to enhance student employability. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| The Construction of Age-appropriate Pedagogies for Young Learners of English in Primary Schools | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | AGE-APPROPRIATE CREATIVITY; ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE; PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES; PRIMARY SCHOOLS; YOUNG LEARNERS; | Teaching english as a foreign language (efl) to young learners has been implemented at primary school level in many non-english speaking countries. One factor that determines the success or failure of primary efl programmes is pedagogical practices. Recognising this importance, this study explores age-appropriate creativity for the practice of teaching english to young learners in vietnamese primary schools. The participants are six efl teachers in six different primary schools in vietnam and the data are collected from interviews and classroom observations. From the perspective of the participating teachers, there are four components constituting their age-appropriate creativity. These are english language use, artistic components, meaningful contexts and real-life practice created in the classroom. The age-appropriate pedagogies constructed by the participants, as discussed in this study, offer a source of reference for teachers of english to young learners, within and beyond vietnam. 2018 Association for language learning. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EDUCATION; INCOME DISCREPANCY; INDUSTRY 4.0; LABOR SUPPLY; VIETNAM; | This paper aims to analyze factors influencing earnings of workers in vietnam using provincial-level data from 2016 to 2018. We show the important determinants of earnings of workers of more than 15 years old including working hour, labor force, life expectancy, education, regulation measured by provincial competitiveness index (pci) and especially industry 4.0, Our major depart from literature proxies by government expenditure on science and technology, number of phone lines, and number of internet users. Working hours are a typical measurement of quantity of labor supplied. Labor force represents market size from the supply side. Life expectancy measures the health of laborers, a physical quality measure of workers. Pci stands for institutional status of the locality. Two most important factors of our interest are education, representing qualification of workers, and industry 4.0, Reflecting the new working environment of workers. By estimating a robust standard error fixed-effect model, we have evidence that all factors are significant in explaining earnings of vietnamese workers. Education and ir4.0 Play an important role in earnings of workers of vietnam. Results also provide an estimation of vietnams labor supply in the context of industry 4.0. In addition, findings contribute to explain the income discrepancy among vietnamese provinces.

| A Competence Model to Assess and Develop Designing Competence Assessment Tool | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ASSESSMENT TOOL; CDCAT; COMPETENCE MODEL; DESIGNING; | Studies showed that competency-based assessment improvement had generated a much greater impact on students' achievements on standardized tests than other forms of educational activities. However, studies also indicated a number of challenges for teachers when designing competence assessment tools (cat), especially in building assessment tasks that replicate real-life practice. There have been many different models for teachers' assessment competencies, but the competency of designing competence assessment tools (cdcat) was not paid much attention. In hope to develop a competency model that would serve as a supporting role in developing the cdcat for pre-service teachers and teachers, this study used a multi-step development process to construct a teachable model that reflectived the complexity of designing assessment tools. The model consisted of 12 behavioural indicators spreading across four dimensions informed by the existing literature and empirical findings in particular contexts. To guarantee the content value of the proposed model, the research twice used the expert method by two panels. The reliability of the model was tested by analyzing the data collected from the survey with students. Interesting findings were met, and the outlined cdcat model assisted pre-service teachers in solving issues related to their assessment competence. The model was intended for educational researchers, educators, teachers, and policy makers to support teachers' assessment competence concerning the current accountability model across educational systems. Specific implications for developing pre-service teachers' cdcat were discussed, followed by suggestions for future studies. 2021 Society for research and knowledge management.

| Detachable Web-based Learning Framework to Overcome Immature Ict Infrastructure Toward Smart Education | , , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREAMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREA NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | ADAPTIVE LEARNING; DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION; SMART EDUCATION SYSTEM; VIRTUAL PHOTOREALITY; | Amid the recent disease outbreaks that have been spreading across the world, the education systems in every country have witnessed a dramatic transformation. In particular, the situation has promoted online learning on an unprecedented scale, with classes being held virtually on digital platforms. This vital transformation is a major challenge in developing countries where information infrastructure for remote learning is lacking. Inspired by these observations, this study first investigated the obstacles in the way of the deployment of smart education systems (sess) in developing countries from a technical perspective. Consequently, a detachable ses framework, named vsmartedu, is proposed. The framework is based on a hybrid online/offline web-service model, which adopts a service-based architecture (sba) design concept to develop smart classrooms. In particular, the online mode is activated for a web-based classroom if an internet service is available. In contrast, the offline-version of the system is available in offline mode in packaged form, and is utilized when the internet is not available in a local classroom. Finally, a prototype was deployed to collect feedback from learners and educators at various educational levels. The trial implementation and survey results concretely validate the feasibility and advantages of the proposed solution. 2013 Ieee. | |
| Portraits of Teachers in Neoliberal Times: Projections and Reflections Generated by Shadow Education Research | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREAMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREA NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | NEOLIBERALISM; PRIVATE TUTORING; QUALITATIVE CONTENT ANALYSIS; SHADOW EDUCATION; TEACHER PROFESSIONALISM; | Shadow education (or private supplementary tutoring) has grown exponentially both as a phenomenon and an area of research. Based on a qualitative content analysis of international research on private tutoring published in the last four decades (19802018), this study explores how teachers and their teaching practices are represented in this literature and what such constructions mean for teacher professionalism. The findings reveal a variety of competing views about school teachers and the teaching profession, reflecting a partial and particular conception of the teaching profession. Influenced by the neoliberal logic, many of these projections portray teachers who participate in tutoring activities as corrupt or narrowly frame their work in terms of profit, competition, or entrepreneurship. Given that most of the reviewed research does not draw on teachers own perspectives, we call for more nuanced and multidimensional approaches to understanding teachers complicated roles and negotiations in this time of neoliberal globalisation. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

As a dynamic but complex phenomenon, transnational education involves the delivery of curriculum and educational practices developed in one country to students in other countries. Therefore, transnational education is associated with not only benefits but also challenges and tensions of navigating cross-border contexts, characterised by different educational, socio-cultural, historical and economic values and practices. As teachers are key actors in transnational education, their professional development is crucial to the delivery and quality of transnational education. This article focuses on the professional development needs and practices of teachers involved in australian transnational programmes. It is based on a data subset with 18 teachers involved in transnational education within a broader research project that includes semi-structured interviews with 215 teachers and professional staff in tertiary education institutions in australia, and researcher participation in and observations of their professional learning activities. The research underscores the importance of responding to teachers professional development needs in relation to building offshore students localised capabilities and employability. The study also highlights the need to equip offshore teachers with not only the academic and cultural dimensions of offshore teaching but also the development of resilience in terms of emotional wellbeing to assist them in navigating transnational experiences. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

This paper provides an analysis of the case of vietnam, which is regarded as having high learning outcomes and less inequity in learning. But national data and international test outcomes may mask the hidden inequities that exist between minoritized groups and majority (kinh) students. Drawing on data from qualitative videos and interviews of secondary teachers, we examine teachers beliefs, curricular design and actions in ethnic minority and kinh majority classrooms. We show that teachers hold different beliefs and engage in curricular designor the use of hegemonic curriculum and instructional practicesthat produce different learning outcomes for minoritized students compared to kinh students. These findings suggest that policies need to focus on the social-cultural aspects of teaching in addition to the material and technical aspects. 2021 British association for international and comparative education. | |

| Insights Into Students Experiences and Perceptions of Remote Learning Methods: from the Covid-19 Pandemic to Best Practice for the Future | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREAMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREA NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | ACTIVE LEARNING; COVID-19; HIGHER EDUCATION; INTERNATIONAL; ONLINE LEARNING; PEDAGOGY; SURVEY; | This spring, students across the globe transitioned from in-person classes to remote learning as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. This unprecedented change to undergraduate education saw institutions adopting multiple online teaching modalities and instructional platforms. We sought to understand students experiences with and perspectives on those methods of remote instruction in order to inform pedagogical decisions during the current pandemic and in future development of online courses and virtual learning experiences. Our survey gathered quantitative and qualitative data regarding students experiences with synchronous and asynchronous methods of remote learning and specific pedagogical techniques associated with each. A total of 4,789 undergraduate participants representing institutions across 95 countries were recruited via instagram. We find that most students prefer synchronous online classes, and students whose primary mode of remote instruction has been synchronous report being more engaged and motivated. Our qualitative data show that students miss the social aspects of learning on campus, and it is possible that synchronous learning helps to mitigate some feelings of isolation. Students whose synchronous classes include active-learning techniques (which are inherently more social) report significantly higher levels of engagement, motivation, enjoyment, and satisfaction with instruction. Respondents recommendations for changes emphasize increased engagement, interaction, and student participation. We conclude that active-learning methods, which are known to increase motivation, engagement, and learning in traditional classrooms, also have a positive impact in the remote-learning environment. Integrating these elements into online courses will improve the student experience. Copyright 2021 nguyen, netto, wilkins, brker, vargas, sealfon, puthipiroj, li, bowler, hinson, pujar and stein. | |

This study investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of a culturally responsive parent training program called parentchild connect for asian american parents at school. Forty-eight asian american parents (mage = 42.98; Sdage = 5.54, 79.2% Female) participated in the parent training program. Parents reported significant increases in positive parenting (parental warmth, cohen's d = 0.33; Reasoning, d = 0.42; And autonomy granting, d = 0.54), And decreases in negative parenting (verbal hostility, d = 0.52; Directiveness, d = 0.33; And shaming behavior, d = 0.38) After the intervention. They also reported significant increases in their sense of competence (d = 0.53) And satisfaction in communicating with their children (d = 0.43). Good attendance and high satisfaction from parents suggested high feasibility of the intervention. Fifteen parents attended two focus group interviews 6 weeks after the training. Parents reported improved empathy, parentchild communication, and self-efficacy, and provided suggestions for future iterations of the training. We discuss how school psychologists can provide parent training and support ethnic minority families at school. Impact statement: to support asian american youth and parents, we implemented parentchild connect, a culturally responsive parent training program with asian american parents at school. Results suggest that it is a feasible and effective parenting intervention for asian american parents in the school setting. 2021 Wiley periodicals llc | |

Eight undergraduate students from hong kong participated in this study. They were all native cantonese speakers with english as their second language (l2) and japanese as their third language (l3) at different proficiency levels. The students attended two rounds of extensive semi-structured interviews that focused on their sources and changes of motivation, their own perceptions of their l2 and l3 selves, their individualised methods and experiences in learning the two languages and their understanding of their cultural identities. The findings reveal the complexity of multilingual learners motivational dynamics in learning l1, l2 and l3. Furthermore, the influence of an l3 on the existing l2 motivation is shown to be an intriguing but under-investigated research area. Our results lend support to the newly proposed dual-motivation system theory and should contribute to a more nuanced understanding of multilingual learning. 2019 Association for language learning. | |

While there has been rich literature on the impact of outbound student mobility from australia to anglophone countries, critical inquiry is warranted regarding how australian students' learning abroad in the indo-pacific affects their employability and career directions. This article responds to this paucity in the literature. It is derived from a larger research project, including a survey of 1,362 new colombo plan alumni. Unlike dominant conceptualisations of employability focusing largely on the role of disciplinary knowledge and soft skills, this study found affording different perspectives, connections and opportunities and the increased knowledge about the indo-pacific have been critical in shaping australian students' employability and career orientations. The findings of this study provide the empirical base for the development of the concept, employability in context, which underscores the importance of moving beyond the conventional discourse about employability and taking into account the contextual factors in conceptualising employability. 2021 John wiley & sons ltd | |

| Language Use in English-medium Instruction Programs in Vietnamese Higher Education: from Policy to Practice | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREAMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND ICT, SOUTH KOREA NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | ENGLISH-MEDIUM INSTRUCTION; HIGHER EDUCATION; LANGUAGE POLICY; LANGUAGE PRACTICES; LANGUAGE USE; | Premised on the theoretical approaches of language planning and policy (spolsky, 2004, 2009; ricento & hornberger, 1996), this study provides a holistic examination of language use from policy to practice in vietnamese higher education english-medium instruction (emi) programs from multiple stakeholders perspectives. Specifically, this study examines how the use of languages is enacted (language management), perceived (language beliefs), and implemented (language practices) at three layers/levels involving 30 university administrators, 96 content lecturers, and 286 students (n=412). Research data were drawn from multiple sources, including policy documents, questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations. An overarching ideology of english only as the medium of instruction was manifest in the data at all levels. However, the findings revealed a stark misalignment between the language management policies explicitly articulated at the national and institutional levels and actual language practices taking place at the interpersonal/classroom level. These findings suggest that ideology/beliefs are not the sole determinant of language practices and that the latter can sometimes be driven by contextual factors. The paper discusses the findings implications for emi policies and practices and offers suggestions for future emi-related research. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Recontextualising Education for Sustainable Development in Pedagogic Practice in Vietnam: Linking Bernsteinian and Constructivist Perspectives | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | WORLD BANK GROUPWORLD BANK GROUP | BERNSTEIN; EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (ESD); GEOGRAPHY TEACHING; PEDAGOGIC PRACTICE; VIETNAM; | This paper investigates how esd is recontextualised in pedagogic practice in geography teaching in hanoi, vietnam, with the case study in two schools. Empirical materials for this study include video recordings and observations of 15 geography lessons conducted between 2016 and 2019. The lessons were selected based on the areas where the teachers thought they would be promoting esd. Bernsteins sociological theory of education (1973-1996) was used as the theoretical frame for analysing the pedagogic practice. Our findings show that (1) an explicit hierarchy frames the interaction between teachers and students; (2) the selection of knowledge and skills is governed by strong classification and framing of curricula and textbooks; (3) teachers follow the sequence of knowledge in the textbooks; (4) the teachers evaluation of the students is based on examining how well students reproduce the textbook contents. The observed pedagogic practice demonstrates a performance-based model of pedagogy, in contrast to a constructivist approach, which the tenets of esd call for. We conclude that the implementation of the global principles of esd could help educators/teachers face the challenges of applying a more transformative, constructivist pedagogic practice in vietnam. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

A total of 55 students (23 boys and 32 girls) aged seven years participated in the study. The research used the method of a pedagogical experiment and parallel group technique (experimental and control group) with pre-and post-testing. The study was conducted in the school year 2019/2020. The gross motor skills performance was assessed by the test of gross motor development2nd edition. The brainballs program was conducted twice a week and combined physical activity with subject-related contents by means of a set of 100 balls with painted letters, numbers, and signs. The results showed that the experimental and control groups improved their motor skills after one school year (p < 0.001). However, the analysis of covariance demonstrated that students from the experimental group, compared to students from the control group, showed significantly better scores in both subtests: locomotor (p = 0.0000) And object control skills (p = 0.0000). The findings of this study show that the brainballs program had a positive effect on childrens motor performances and may help to better understand the development of basic motor skills of seven-year-old students in vietnam. 2021 By the authors.

The authors also include future orientation (major offering and career warranty) in the proposed relationship. Drawing on the dynamic capability perspective and based on data from 265 universities' facebook accounts, the authors found that private universities are more actively engaged in social media interactions than public ones. The findings further indicated that smu and smv positively influence university brand value more strongly at high levels of career warranty and major offering, respectively, under the controlling condition of international cooperation capability. Accordingly, implications for educational practitioners and theory are discussed. 2021 Elsevier ltd | |
| The Nature of Teacher Professional Development in Australian International Vocational Education | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING; | Together with canada, the uk and the us, australia is one of the most active countries in promoting education export and recruiting international students with international education as the countrys biggest and most successful services export industry. However, staff capacity building in international education has not been adequately invested. In research, while the teaching and learning of international students is a topic of growing popularity, the professional development (pd) and capacity building for teachers, who play a crucial role in the internationalisation of education and in particular, in supporting the learning of international students, has been left largely unexplored. This article responds to this critical gap in the literature by examining the nature of teacher professional development practices in international education the findings of the research shows that, at the individual and institutional levels, teacher self-positioning of their pd needs and other positioning of the institutional pd provision seem to reveal the internal contradictions and tensions within institutions that work against the principles of responsive learning and teaching relative to international students needs and expectations. The article calls for more support and investment in teacher professional development tailored to their needs to operate, teach and learn effectively in a context of increased internationalisation. 2020 Ucu. | |
| Organic and Geographical Indication Certifications’ Contributions to Employment and Education | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | HORIZON 2020 FRAMEWORK PROGRAMMEHORIZON 2020 FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME | ALTERNATIVE FOOD; EDUCATION; EMPLOYMENT; FOOD QUALITY SCHEMES; GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATION; ORGANIC; SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY; SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE; | In this paper, we test to what extent food quality schemes (fqs, including geographical indications and organic products) contribute to the social and economic sustainability of farmers and regions through employment and education. Through employment, fqs may counter the urban migration trend affecting rural regions, and help retain economic and social capital in the local region. Indeed, as fqs are often small and specialised sectors, the economic inefficiency of such businesses may translated into greater employment and social sustainability. Separately, by requiring a higher-level of quality and hence skills, fqs may encourage greater local educational attainment or skilled immigration. To test these propositions, we analyse the employment and educational outcomes of 25 fqs. Our results show that the fqs products examined have a 13% higher labour usage (labour-to-production ratio) compared to reference products, indicating that they provide greater employment. Additionally, wage levels are 32% higher in fqs compared to references. Despite providing greater employment and higher wages, profitability of fqs (i.E. How much turnover/profit is generated per employee) is nevertheless 32% higher for fqs compared to reference products, due to the ability to attract higher product prices. Finally, there is no clear link between fqs and greater (or lower) education attainment in the supply chain. Overall, our results suggest that fqs can provide a strong contribution to local employment, employee income and business profits, strengthening the social and economic sustainability of producers and regions. 2020 Walter de gruyter gmbh, berlin/boston 2020. | |

| Testing Methods to Increase Consumption of Healthy Foods Evidence from a School-based Field Experiment in Viet Nam | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | CHILD NUTRITION AND HEALTH; FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CONSUMPTION; HEALTHY DIETS; HEALTHY FOOD CONSUMPTION; SCHOOL-BASED NUTRITION EDUCATION; | Schools are an attractive entry point to improve children's diets, as their eating habits can be shaped during childhood and the information disseminated from school can reach adults through children. We implemented a cluster-randomized trial in 12 schools in peri-urban viet nam to assess if two school-based interventions increased knowledge of healthy diets among children and their parents, as well as children's consumption of healthy foods. First, children were given lessons about food before school lunch and encouraged to share the lessons with their parents. Second, children were provided with healthy snacks to reinforce messages about healthy eating. We found that in the short term, the nutrition lessons raised the knowledge index score of the children by 0.35 Standard deviation. After six months, this intervention lost its effectiveness, emphasizing the need for linkage between knowledge and practice. By itself, free access to fruit at school increased the children's daily fruit consumption by half a portion, but not at the expense of home fruit consumption. Access to healthy foods at school can therefore be an effective measure to raise children's healthy consumption. Child-parent communication was not a reliable channel for knowledge dissemination in our setting. 2021 The author(s) | |

| Intention Mutability and Translation of Rural Intention Into Actual Rural Medical Practice | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENTDEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT | ADMISSION/SELECTION/MINORITY RECRUITMENT; CAREER CHOICE; COMMUNITY BASED EDUCATION; POSTGRADUATE TRAINING; RURAL; | Background: rural intention and experience during medical school have been related to subsequent rural work. However, their relative contributions and the timing of their effects are not known. These data are critical to effective educational interventions able to improve rural medical workforce numbers, an international priority. Methods: participants were graduates of an australian mbbs degree between 2006 and 2016, who completed both entry and exit surveys approved by the medical deans of australia, including workplace intention data. Rural/urban workplace intention changes from entry to exit were analysed using multinomial logistic regression. Binary logistic regression was used to assess actual rural versus urban work, obtained from a public practitioner registration website. Results: of 547 eligible undergraduates, 169 completed a year-long rural clinical school (rcs). A subset of 93 of the 547 graduates practiced rurally, of whom 42 had completed rcs. Both rural background and rcs predicted rural practice intention; both were also significantly related to actual rural work. Enduring rural intention was associated with nearly sevenfold odds of actually practicing rurally, compared with an enduring urban intention. Those who changed practice intention from entry to exit were more likely to practice in the region of their exit intention. Of special note: rural clinical school of western australia (rcswa) exposure particularly affects urban origin students such that the odds of changing from an urban to a rural orientation immediately after their rural experience were more than fourfold higher than those not so participating. Discussion: both intention and rcswa experience are associated with subsequent rural work. The impacts of rcswa were able to be localised after the rural educational experience. Amongst those with mutable intention, exit intention was that most strongly related to actual work, suggesting this as the most reliable point to select for further rural training. 2020 Association for the study of medical education and john wiley & sons ltd | |

Tiếng Anh | DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENTDEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT | DIFFERENTIAL ITEM FUNCTIONING; ECOLOGICAL; SOCIOCULTURAL; VARIANCE; | The use and interpretation of educational and psychological test scores are paramount to individual outcomes and opportunities. Methods for detecting differential item functioning (dif) are imperative for item analysis when developing and revising assessments, particularly as it pertains to fairness across populations, languages, and cultures. We discuss the practical application of third generation of dif, which proposes an ecological framework for explaining why dif occurs using sociological, community, and contextual variables as possible explanations of item responding. We examined school district clusters for dif through a model-based approach via multilevel logistic regression random-intercept and random-coefficient models to detect racial/ethnic dif on a youth risk and needs assessment. We demonstrate how the use of district-level administrative data as estimates of student's contextual environments shows promise to understand ecological sources of dif and dif variance. The implication of the work progresses dif research, enhances the approach to understanding item responses, and provides a more accurate understanding of youth development through an ecological framework. Recommendations for practice and future studies are discussed. 2021 By the national council on measurement in education | |

| Reconceptualising Employability of Returnees: What Really Matters and Strategic Navigating Approaches | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENTDEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND AGEING, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT | AGENCY; AUSTRALIA; BOURDIEU; CAPITAL; EMPLOYABILITY; HIGHER EDUCATION; RETURNEES; | Although increasing attention has been paid to post-study career trajectories of returnees in emerging economies, there are very few studies on how returnees navigate the home labour market. To fill this gap, the present study aimed to explore how returnees negotiated their employability trajectories in home labour markets. It employed a mixed-method approach, conducting a survey and individual interviews with 80 and 15 returnees, respectively. The findings revealed that to sustain employability, returnees had to develop and utilise various forms of capital including human, social, identity, cultural, psychological, and agentic capital. In particular, technical knowledge emerged as a neutral factor at all stages of their career development; social capital was crucially important during market entry and for promotion; and an understanding of local work culture and professional skills were significant at the workplace. Most importantly, to achieve successful employment outcomes, career progression, and personal goals, returnees had to exercise agentic capital to combine and utilise various forms of capital strategically. The findings implied that various stakeholders should share responsibilities to enable students to build a package of resources for their employability negotiation. Graduate employability should also be assessed a few years after students graduation so that useful resources can be revealed and then applied in teaching and learning programmes and support services. 2020, Springer nature b.V. | |

| English Primary Teacher Agency in Implementing Teaching Methods in Response to Language Policy Reform: a Vietnamese Case Study | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | LANGUAGE POLICY; POSITIONING THEORY; TEACHER AGENCY; VIETNAM; | Teacher agency has become a growing research interest in language education, especially at the critical juncture of widespread globalisation, when many nations including vietnam, the context of the study, have promulgated a new language policy to respond to this transformation. However, teacher agency remains under-examined despite a small number of recent studies. In response to the paucity in the current lp literature, this qualitative case study, grounded in positioning theory, aims to explore how english teachers exercise their agency in response to the policy under prescribed contextual conditions. Data were collected from multiple sources including in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documents. The findings showed that teachers were positioned (by the policy and their institutions) as mere policy implementers who were expected to strictly follow the mandates and instructions transferred to them. Their implementation was regularly supervised and inspected by their stakeholders (including department of education and training, bureau of education and training, and school leaders). However, in the classroom context, the teachers attempted to adapt the policy mandates according to their interpretations, preferences, choices, and current teaching conditions.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | BRAND EQUITY; EWOM; HIGHER EDUCATION; PERCEIVED BRAND CREDIBILITY; SUBJECTIVE NORMS; | Purpose: the growing competitive environment in which higher education institutes are immersed has caused them to strengthen their competitive position of a brand and its equity in emerging countries. However, there are several contradictions between the empirically approved determinants and the dimensions of brand equity in higher education. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the structural relationship between subjective norms, electronic word-of-mouth (ewom), perceived brand credibility and brand equity, taking cross-culturally comparisons between sri lanka, and vietnam. Design/methodology/approach: a survey was used to collect data from a sample of 800 undergraduates of private higher education institutions in sri lanka and vietnam in 2019. These data were gathered using purposive sampling and analyzed using a structural equation model. A total of 768 questionnaires were considered valid. In testing the hypothesis and structure among the variables, structural equation modelling was used to determine the relationship between subjective norms, ewom, perceived brand credibility and brand equity for the higher education institutes in emerging countries. Findings: for the conceptual framework, the author found that this structural equation model complies with the empirical data. The structural equation model shows that subjective norms, ewom and perceived brand credibility were significantly related to brand equity. Perceived brand credibility was found to be the mediating variable. Further, the location was found to moderate the relationship between perceived brand credibility and brand equity, highlighting that vietnamese students are more relying on perceived brand credibility in creating brand equity than their sri lankan counterparts. Research limitations/implications: the study was conducted at private higher education institutes in sri lanka and vietnam. Future research could benefit from perceptions of undergraduates in public higher education institutes. This study discusses the implications of developing branding strategies for higher education institutions. Originality/value: the current research contributes to the services marketing and branding literature in the higher education context. The paper presents the crucial elements in building brand equity for higher education institutes to fill the existing gaps in higher education branding literature. The findings of the current study provide strategies to improve the higher education sector. 2020, Emerald publishing limited. | |
| The Role of Contextual Factors on Predicting Entrepreneurial Intention Among Vietnamese Students | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC KINH T QUC DNI HC KINH T QUC DN | REGULATORY AND NORMATIVE DIMENSIONS; SOCIAL CAPITAL; THEORY OF PLANNED BEHAVIOUR; UNIVERSITY EDUCATION; | Objective: the objective of the article is to explore the specific underlying mechanisms in which contextual factors are internalised into students cognitive process of entrepreneurship in vietnam. Research design & methods: a quantitative study with a meta-analysis was conducted by utilising structural equation modelling (sem). The sample consisted of 2218 final-year students from fourteen universities located in two major regions in vietnam who were surveyed using stratified random sampling. Findings: results revealed that social capital was not directly related to intention to become entrepreneurs, which had indirect and significant impact on start-up intention throughout attitude towards entrepreneurship, perceived behavioural control, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy. In addition, the regulatory dimension negatively affected entrepreneurial intention while the normative dimension positively promoted this intention. University education not only directly affected but also indirectly influenced entrepreneurial intention via antecedents of the theory of planned behaviour. The research also showed the mediating role of attitude towards entrepreneurship, perceived behavioural control, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy between contextual factors and entrepreneurial intention among vietnamese students. Implications & recommendations: the study has several implications and practical recommendations for universities and policymakers in boosting business venturing activities among college students. Contribution & value added: the empirical evidence of the research supported the theoretical arguments, which specified the detailed mechanisms that contextual factors affect the cognitive process of business venture. 2021, Cracow university of economics.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CORRELATION; LIFE SKILL; LIVING VALUE; LIVING VALUES AND LIFE SKILLS EDUCATION; SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENT; | This study was conducted to examine the relationship between the living values and life skills of 883 students in five secondary schools in hanoi, ho chi minh city and da nang. The questionnaire used in the study consists of 42 items reflecting 9 living values (patriotism, cooperation, safety, happiness, tolerance, hardworking, love - respect, responsible for the future and honesty) and 23 items reflecting 3 life skills (autonomy, problem solving and creativity, and communication). The results show that: the students made a clear expression of the 9 living values and the 3 life skills. The living values and life skills were positively correlated with the pearson correlation coefficients of from 0.33 To 0.684. The correlation coefficients between living values and life skills expressed by females are higher than those for males. The correlation coefficients between living values and life skills by grade level are positive. This study also showed the need to focus on educating the living values and life skills under the focus of the general education program in vietnam today. The research provides a scientific basis and evidence that many high secondary schools in vietnam are focusing on educating only life skills in the past decade will review and adjust their model and approach of life skills education. These practical results help reinforce the approach and educational model for integrated living values and life skills. Many schools, especially five schools of the sample group in ho chi minh city, da nang and hanoi, can immediately adjust their current model of living values and life skills education. 2021 Academic publishing house researcher s.R.O.

| Inside the Intention to Join Extracurricular Activities: Integrating the Theory of Planned Behavior and Signaling Theory | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EDUCATION; EXTRACURRICULAR; SIGNALING THEORY; THEORY OF PLANNED BEHAVIOR; VIETNAM; | Although researchers have previously discussed the consequences of extracurricular activity (eca) participation, the question of which factors affect the intention to participate in ecas has been less addressed. By incorporating the theory of planned behavior (tpb) and signaling theory, this study investigates the role of the components of the tpb and signal quality in the intention to join ecas. In addition, the contingent effects of students demographic profiles, such as their gender, their year in school, and whether they have a part-time job, are examined. A sample of 386 students at various universities in ho chi minh, vietnam, was used to test a model that incorporates the relationships between tpb components and signal quality by means of the partial least squares (pls) technique. The results of this study indicate that the three components of the tpb have positive impacts on the intention to join ecas. In addition, signal quality affects both attitude and intention. Finally, students demographic profiles, such as their gender, their year in school, and whether they have a part-time job, have moderating roles in the relationship from attitude and subjective norms to intention. This study adopted a cross-sectional design and was conducted in vietnam only. Future research should consider longitudinal studies and make comparisons between countries with diverse cultures. As another limitation, this study investigated only university students. Future research, therefore, is needed to consider other subjects and different sectors, such as high school pupils. The results of this study suggest that eca organizers should send clear, consistent, and credible signals to potential members. Additionally, parents, teachers and other influencers should talk to and encourage students to join ecas. As a major contribution of this study, it incorporates the tpb and signaling theory to examine the antecedents of eca participation. 2021 The author(s).

| Enacting Smart Pedagogy in Higher Education Contexts: Sensemaking Through Collaborative Biography | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | AUSTRALIA; COLLECTIVE BIOGRAPHIES; HIGHER EDUCATION; ICT; SENSEMAKING; SMART PEDAGOGY; | Scholars and practitioners argue that information and communication technology (ict) provides flexibility of time and place and softens boundaries between students learning lives. The fluid movement between formal and informal learning contexts afforded by digital technology has prompted a re-definition of higher education learning environments to harness its potential. Further, technology can cater to diverse learners and promote lifelong learning in ways that the traditional didactic settings characteristic of tertiary contexts cannot. Scholars and practitioners have labelled this new teaching and learning landscape as smart pedagogy. This article engages with this scholarship by analysing a specific australian case study in which ict reforms have been deliberately implemented to adhere to smart pedagogies. Using collective biographies as a methodological tool, this inquiry provides insights into sensemaking experiences of a group of university academics whilst implementing ict reforms anchored on smart pedagogy. 2021, The author(s). | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | POSITIONING THEORY; TEACHER EDUCATION; TEACHING ENGLISH TO YOUNG LEARNERS; VIETNAM; | Set against a background of international concern about teacher stress and attrition, this paper reports the results of a qualitative study which investigated the experiences of one group of primary school english language teachers in vietnam. Drawing upon positioning theory and bakhtins dialogism, results suggest that the professional positioning of these teachers takes place within a struggle for centripetal status between multiple discourses circulating within vietnamese society. These results also indicate that this struggle results in emotional dissonance for many of the participantsreflected in feelings of stress, frustration, and sadnesswhich lead some to reconsider their long-term commitment to the teaching profession. Arguing that proposals for english language teacher professional development in vietnam which are limited to enhancing teachers linguistic proficiency and teaching competency do not adequately respond to the needs of these teachers, the paper sets out suggestions for supporting teachers of english to young learners in ways that address their emotional struggles. Suggestions for future research in vietnam and other analogous settings are also considered. 2020, De la salle university. | |

This article reports data from a qualitative case study using semi-structured interviews to explore the positioning and discursive identity of eight vietnamese social science scholars. Findings revealed that researchers trained in vietnam and the soviet union understood research as knowledge production, positioning themselves as creators of knowledge and critical thinkers. In contrast, researchers who studied in western countries considered research a rigorous process, positioning themselves as producers and disseminators of research assessed against given standards in international peer-reviewed journals. This study suggests that in local contexts with a complicated history and unique culture like vietnam, social science researchers should be encouraged to employ their various local methods to tap into the existing sources of local knowledge. 2021 British association for international and comparative education. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EARLY CHILDHOOD; IMMERSIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCES; PARTICIPATORY TOOLS; STEAM EDUCATION; | This paper presents a unique perspective into challenges faced by kindergarten teachers in engaging children in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (steam) education in vietnam. It reports on teachers perspectives of an adaptation of immersive learning experiences (ile), to develop understanding of pedagogical approaches to steam education in real-world contexts. The study adopted a qualitative and interpretivist methodology, engaging 105 teachers in informal and collaborative activities. Their perceptions were gathered via participatory tools; photographic images recorded how they engaged with ile. Data analysis occurred using de freitass four-dimensional framework. The study responds to evidence that steam education is not prevalent in vietnamese schools, and reflects on the top-down siloed approach ubiquitous within its early childhood education (ece) sector. Findings indicate the necessity for a prolonged period of training using ile that enables teachers development of pedagogical approaches to steam education. Significantly, it provides new insight for a variety of stakeholders (including teacher trainers and policy makers) into the under-researched field of vietnamese teachers pedagogical approaches in ece, and extends its findings to countries adopting more formalised approaches to education. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Investigating Vietnamese Undergraduate Students Willingness to Pay for Higher Education Under the Cost-sharing Context | , , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY | COST-SHARING; HIGHER EDUCATION FINANCE; STUDENT AID; TUITION FEE; VIETNAM; WILLINGNESS TO PAY; | Currently, vietnam is adopting a cost-sharing policy for public higher education. A dual mechanism of tuition fees has been introduced: (i) the tuition fee covers part of the instruction cost; and (ii) the tuition fee covers the full instruction cost. Despite this, vietnamese public universities still face a shortage of income for maintaining good quality higher education. There has been ongoing debate about measures to resolve this problem: while some suggest the current tuition fee cap predetermined by the government should be raised, in conjunction with high levels of aid, others are opposed to this idea. However, this debate lacks students' perspectives. In this paper, we examine students willingness to pay for tuition in association with its predictors. A survey of 237 students shows that there is a high willingness to pay for higher education, evidenced by their willingness to pay for extra classes in addition to tuition fees for universities. The study also revealed that the following factors affect students views on total payments for higher education (including tuition fees and fees for extra classes): the academic year of the student, their major, whether they are fully self-paid vs. State-subsidized, their familys economic situation and academic-related factors. Meanwhile, their willingness to pay was not influenced by gender and economic-related factors. These findings provide implications for policymakers and university administrators for the adjustment of financing policies. The author(s) 2021. | |

Tiếng Anh | MINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYMINISTRY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY | CHATBOTS; HIGHER EDUCATION; LIFE SATISFACTION; RESEARCH; STUDENTS; SUBJECTIVE WELL-BEING; | The present research discusses about the issue of students subjective well-being which is very much based on ones own cognitive judgment. This chapter empirically investigates what effect chatbots have on subjective well-being of the students and how subjective well-being can be measured in terms of this research context. The major findings of the study are that students subjective well-being has been measured into three dimensions. The first dimension of subjective well-being is life satisfaction which represented that overall students feel satisfied after conversing with the chatbot. The second dimension is positive affect which is also increasing after conversing with the chatbots. The third dimension is negative affect which is decreasing among the students after conversing with the chatbots. So, it is recommended to the college and university to implement chatbots in their premises for the wellbeing of their students. Springer nature switzerland ag 2021. | |

Tiếng Anh | WORLD BANK GROUPWORLD BANK GROUP DEUTSCHE FORSCHUNGSGEMEINSCHAFTDEUTSCHE FORSCHUNGSGEMEINSCHAFT | DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS; INVERSE OPTIMIZATION; LINEAR AND MIXED-INTEGER PROGRAMS; VIETNAMESE EDUCATION SYSTEM; | This paper extends the theory of inverse frontier-based benchmarking to address the issue of effectiveness when investigating the efficiency of household expenditure in the case of the vietnamese education system. Enhancing the conventional efficiency measurement approach by data envelopment analysis (dea), our study focuses on the derivation of meaningful benchmarks in terms of the required level of inputs and outputs for performance improvement. The proposed inverse optimization problem identifies the essential household education expenditures for 63 provincial education systems at different efficiency levels while the university entrance threshold for exam results is satisfied as an effectiveness constraint. The results strongly recommend including this constraint into the action plans of improving the educational achievements in all provinces across vietnam. Besides revealing policy implications in the specific case, the proposed approach adds to current dea literature by suggesting complementary measures such as effectiveness and feasibility to strengthen performance assessment. 2021 Elsevier ltd | |

Students often choose suitable courses according to their interests, needs, and advice from supporting staff, etc. This paper presents the results in developing a course recommendation system that will select appropriate courses for each student studying a major in the following semesters based on his/her current academic performance. We have applied several techniques based on data mining and learning analytics to predict students learning outcomes in the next semester and developed a model to select the appropriate courses based on such a recommendation system. Besides, our study has focused on comparing the effectiveness of predictive learning methods based on collaborative filtering. Experiments analyzed the learning results of 510 students who enrolled in the courses from 2015 to 2019 and showed that the matrix factorization method is the most effective. Also, the paper has proposed procedures and constraints applicable to different training curricula. 2021, The author(s), under exclusive licence to springer science+business media, llc, part of springer nature. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; EDUCATION; WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT; | This paper evaluates the impacts of education on women's relational empowerment, within a context of 70 developing countries across the world. Exploiting the variation in educational attainment between biological sisters, we find that education is positively associated with women's intra-household decision making authority in both financial and non-financial domains. Moreover, education reduces relational friction, especially women's exposure to psychological abuse. Our mechanism analyses provide suggestive evidence that these improvements could be attributed to increased access to information, assortative matching, and better labor market outcome. 2020 Walter de gruyter gmbh, berlin/boston. | |

Tiếng Anh | JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCYJAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY | CLINICAL COMPETENCE; INTERSECTORAL COLLABORATION; NURSING EDUCATION; ORGANIZATION AND ADMINISTRATION; ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE; STAFF DEVELOPMENT; | Background: clinical training for new graduate nurses has a positive impact on their clinical competence; however, there is limited evidence on the impact of this training at the organizational level and on the processes that mediate these impacts. Objectives: to identify the individual and organizational impacts of a clinical training system and the mechanism that produces them by exploring nurses' perceptions of the changes in health facilities after the introduction of a standardized clinical training system in vietnam. Design: qualitative research using an ethnographic approach; photovoice was used to obtain insights into nurses' perceptions. Setting: health facilities of four provinces and one city in vietnam participated in the project for strengthening of the clinical training system for new graduate nurses. Participants: new graduate nurses, preceptors, and managers who engaged in the clinical training program. Methods: qualitative data, including photographs, were collected through photovoice sessions and inductively analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: sixteen photovoice sessions were conducted with 94 nurses from 22 hospitals. Three themes emerged: acquiring competency as an individual change, fostering mutual learning culture as an organizational change, and improved quality of care and nurse empowerment as the impact. The clinical training system was found to enhance diverse competencies of new graduate nurses, preceptors, and nurse managers, while facilitating collaboration among different professions, departments, and organizations and cultivating a better learning environment. Organizational changes were initiated with the hospital director's support. These changes were interactively related and produced the impact. Conclusions: the novel clinical training system for new graduate nurses could strengthen nurses' competencies and facilitate organizational changes to actualize a positive impact on nursing care and nurses' status. These findings could facilitate the design of an effective training program to stimulate organizational learning to produce better health outcome. 2021 The author(s) | |

| A Cluster Quasi-randomized Controlled Trial of an Interactive, Monthly Obstetric Anesthesiology Curriculum: Impact on Resident Satisfaction and Knowledge Retention | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCYJAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY | EDUCATION; CURRICULUM; EDUCATION; MEDICAL; SIMULATION; | Background: increasingly, evidence supports the use of educational paradigms that focus on teacher-learner interaction and learner engagement. We redesigned our monthly obstetric anesthesia resident didactics from a lecture-based curriculum to an interactive format including problem-based learning, case discussion, question/answer sessions, and simulation. We hypothesized that the new curriculum would improve resident satisfaction with the educational experience, satisfaction with the rotation, and knowledge retention. Methods: fifty-three anesthesiology residents were prospectively recruited and quasi-randomized through an alternating-month pattern to attend either interactive sessions or traditional lectures. Residents completed a daily satisfaction survey about quality of teaching sessions and a comprehensive satisfaction survey at the conclusion of the rotation. Knowledge retention was assessed with a knowledge test completed on the final day. The primary outcome was daily satisfaction with the curriculum, and secondary outcomes included overall satisfaction with the curriculum, overall rotation satisfaction, and within-resident difference between pre- and post-knowledge test scores. Results: no differences were observed in daily resident satisfaction after interactive sessions vs traditional lectures. Furthermore, no differences were observed between the interactive sessions and traditional lecture groups in overall satisfaction with the curriculum, overall satisfaction with the entire rotation or within-resident difference between pre- and post-knowledge test scores. Conclusions: our study failed to demonstrate improvement in resident satisfaction or knowledge retention following implementation of an interactive curriculum on a month-long obstetric anesthesia rotation. Reasons may include misalignment of the intervention with measured study outcomes, lack of sensitivity of the survey tools, and inadequate training of faculty presenters. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

The execution of the sustainability hackathon illuminates how value-based education, creative problem-solving and co-opetition were critical aspects to foster efs in the hospitality industry. Moreover, the hackathon facilitators, i.E. The hotels general managers, were found to play an essential part in shaping the sustainability education and the events potential impacts. This paper contributes to expand knowledge on efs offered by the hospitality industry (as opposed to efs in formal educational institutions) and make practical recommendations on how sustainability hackathons could be better facilitated by hotel chains. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Robing Up: Transactional Identity Development of Vietnamese Phd Students | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCYJAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY | AGENCY; CULTURE; DOCTORAL SUPERVISION; IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; VIETNAMESE STUDENTS; | Since the early 21st century the number of doctoral students leaving their own country to study abroad has risen significantly adding to swelling numbers of domestic students. The process of doctoral studies has been acknowledged as identity transformation, a process of becoming for domestic students and international students. What remains unclear is the extent the identity of doctor penetrates to core culturally embedded identities formed within the international students earlier lives. Is the identity of doctor like the graduation robe that is worn purposefully for ceremonies and later removed in daily life? Are there differences for male and female graduates in cultures such as vietnam where there are clearly defined gender roles? The six case studies this article reports on contribute to recognizing the complexity of international students engaging with doctoral studies, and the specific nature of vietnamese students cultural border crossing in australian universities. In this article, we examine strategies the graduates used to empower themselves and shape their academic identities. We begin to see the importance of considering gender as well as culture in the experiences of international doctoral students. 2020 National institute of education, singapore. | |
| You Are Not as Localised as I Need: Employability of Chinese Returning Graduates | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCYJAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY | CHINA; EMPLOYABILITY; EMPLOYERS; INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; INTERNATIONAL STUDENT RECRUITMENT; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; RETURNEES; | Purpose: international student employability has been accorded increased emphasis in the internationalisation agendas, especially in major destination countries as it shapes universities' attractiveness to prospective international students. Having insights into returning graduates' employability in their home country has become critical given that a majority of international graduates return home after their overseas study. This study responds to this critical need by examining how foreign credentials are valued by employers in the field of accounting in china, based on in-depth interviews with employers, alumni and policymakers. Design/methodology/approach: this study draws on a qualitative approach involving literature review and in-depth interviews with 28 key stakeholders: employers, returning graduates and policymakers in china and india. The key research question of the study is how foreign credentials are valued by employers in the field of accounting in china and india. This article focuses on the chinese context. In-depth interviews with employers and policymakers focused on eliciting nuanced socio-cultural understandings as to perceptions and decisions associated with desirable graduate attributes and the relative value of credentials. Interviews with returning graduates aimed to understand how different capitals were mobilised to gain employment in the chinese labour market. Findings: the empirical findings of the study show that chinese returning graduates could be seen to lack the localised knowledge needed to work in chinese companies and ability to adapt to the local environment. However the possible development of a dual local and international guanxi through overseas study can be regarded as a marker of distinction in the home labour market. The associated value of such a dual guanxi signals the importance for chinese international students to develop transnational networks while simultaneously maintaining their kinship, social and business networks locally during their overseas education. Originality/value: the study provides fresh insights into a marked shift in china, with less of a preference for western credentials, as compared to 10 years ago when overseas credentials were often regarded more favourably. Even though overseas study generally provides chinese graduates with an exposure to international practices and global perspectives, whether such an overseas exposure and foreign language competency would be an advantage also depends on the business needs and sometimes the business model of organisations. 2021, Emerald publishing limited. | |
| Public Diplomacy and Social Impact of Australian Student Mobility to the Indo-pacific: Host Countries Perspectives on Hosting New Colombo Plan Students | , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | AUSTRALIA; CHINA; INDONESIA; INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; JAPAN; LEARNING ABROAD; MALAYSIA; NEW COLOMBO PLAN; PUBLIC DIPLOMACY; SOCIAL IMPACT; STUDENT MOBILITY; THE INDO-PACIFIC REGION; VIETNAM; | Learning abroad is a primary dimension of internationalization of higher education, but little is known about the social impact of learning abroad. While a significant body of the literature in international education has examined learning abroad from the student and academic perspectives, how host communities, especially in the indo-pacific, perceive the social impact of hosting students from an anglophone country like australia is underresearched. This study addresses this critical gap in the literature by exploring the social impact of australian students learning in the indo-pacific from the host perspective. This article emerges from an ongoing study on australian students learning in the indo-pacific via the new colombo plan (ncp), the australian governments signature initiative of student mobility and public diplomacy. It focuses on data from 32 interviews with host organizations, including industry firms, small businesses, nongovernmental organizations, and education institutions, in china, indonesia, japan, malaysia, and vietnam. The study shows that not only does the australian government position the ncp as a strategic public diplomacy tool to build lasting relationships with indo-pacific countries, but receiving countries also view the ncp as a catalyst that facilitates the execution of their international agenda. The study identifies four main forms of social impact associated with australian students learning abroad in the indo-pacific, perceived by the host communities: (a) strengthening bilateral and international ties; (b) fostering student-to-student, university-to-industry, and university-to-university partnerships; (c) strengthening community engagement through service-learning; and (d) enriching host organizations training capacity, human resources, and awareness of their own values. 2021 European association for international education. | |
| Depressive Symptoms in Relation to Adverse Childhood Experiences, Discrimination, Hope, and Social Support in a Diverse Sample of College Students | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTHNATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTENATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE FOGARTY INTERNATIONAL CENTERFOGARTY INTERNATIONAL CENTER NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCESNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCES | ACES; DISCRIMINATION; HOPE; MENTAL HEALTH; SOCIAL SUPPORT; | Background: young adulthood is a critical transitory period, with various factors impacting mental health and longer-term health outcomes, particularly among racial/ethnic minorities. Drawing from minority stress theory, this study examined correlates of depressive symptoms, specifically adverse childhood experiences (aces), racial/ethnic discrimination, hope, social support, and their interactive effects, among a diverse sample of college students. Methods: we analyzed data from 666 racial/ethnic minority college students (57% black, 22% latinx, 21% asian) attending seven colleges and universities in the state of georgia. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the patient health questionnaire-9 item (phq-9). Multivariable linear regressions included aces, racial/ethnic discrimination, hope, and social support, adjusting for sex, race/ethnicity, parent education, nativity, and age. We tested two-way interaction terms in four separate models to examine the potential buffering effect of social support and hope on the association between aces and discrimination. Results: participants were on average 20.56 Years old (sd = 1.93) And 30% were male. The mean phq-9 score was 3.89 (Sd = 4.91); 56% Reported at least one ace; 70% experienced racial/ethnic discrimination. Aces and racial/ethnic discrimination correlated with higher levels of depressive symptoms; higher social support and hope correlated with decreased depressive symptoms. While hope and social support did not moderate the relationships between aces or discrimination and depressive symptoms among the full sample, racial/ethnic subgroup analyses indicated that, among asian students, the positive association between discrimination and depressive symptoms was significantly weaker for those perceiving greater hope. Conclusions: eliminating racial/ethnic disparities in mental health requires concerted efforts to prevent and/or reduce aces and discrimination and identifying protective factors that can mitigate their relationship to depressive symptoms. 2021, W.

The ways students perceive these skills or what kind of dispositions they have in this regard are significant. This paper provides an overview of the development of pre-service teachers' perceived 21st-century skills and dispositions. The quantitative data was collected in three phases during 2014, 2015, and 2016 at three finnish universities. The number of respondents at each measurement point varied from 209 to 267. Data were analysed using latent growth curve modeling. The study focuses on students' perceptions of three areas related to 21st-century skills: learning skills, collaboration dispositions, and skills to use ict. The results show that the three areas evolved in different ways. Learning skills and collaboration dispositions show up as yearly assessments that remain at the same level, with small differences among respondents, unlike skills to use ict with bigger yearly changes. The measured areas also appear as separate entities throughout the bachelor's studies, with small or non-significant correlations. These results reveal important new perspectives on how pre-service teachers perceive 21st-century skills and how perceptions evolve during teacher education. 2020 The author(s) | |

This is a qualitative case study research using semi-structured in-depth interviews to explore the experience and feedbacks of the participants about the proposed model. The five groups of participants are: high school students, parents, teachers, school counselors, and school managers. Based on the thematic analysis, four key themes relating to the participants experience and feedback were identified from informant responses. The findings suggest that the proposed model assessed appeared to be necessary, feasible and responsive to the new requirements of the vietnamese 2018-general educational program. However, to meet the participants expectations, the model must orient more clearly on how to consolidate highly qualified school counselors and ensure the requirements of facilities and professional policies. Overall, through a trial and assessment process by the participants, the proposed model meets the requirements of developing three core competencies for vietnamese students, as well as clearly showing the implementation process and coordinated effectively in school counseling work. This is an achievement for the field of school counseling in vietnam. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

Through semi-structured interviews with 32 participants, this study identified a number of factors that contributed to quality assurance processes, including awareness of the importance of quality assurance, better institutional manager leadership, support of university lecturers, staff, and students, and the vital responsibility of internal quality assurance staff. These confirm that internal stakeholders play an important role in undertaking quality assurance programmes and activities. 2021: Loc thi my nguyen, trung tran, thuan van pham, tien-trung nguyen, hien thi thu le, thao thi phuong trinh, thanh thi nghiem and nova southeastern university. | |
| The Adoption of International Publishing Within Vietnamese Academia from 1986 to 2020: a Review | , , , , , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTHNATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTENATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE FOGARTY INTERNATIONAL CENTERFOGARTY INTERNATIONAL CENTER NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCESNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCES | ACADEMIA; BIBLIOMETRICS; RESEARCH; VIETNAM;; | This study examines the use of international publishing (i.E. Publishing in journals/books indexed by international bibliometrics databases) within academia in vietnam since doi moi (the renovation) in 1986. Document analysis and in-depth interviews with 20 vietnamese scholars were undertaken to address the research objective. The findings revealed three important milestones in academic development in vietnam: 19862008, 20082017, and 2017 to the present. Between 1986 and 2008, international publishing was almost non-existent in actual practice in academia, except among the mathematics community. Since 2008, with the launch of the foundation for science and technology development, international publishing in vietnam has become more visible on a broader scope (i.E. At ministerial level). Increasing awareness in the academic community of the role of international publishing contributed to a major increase in research output with an international outlook between 2008 and 2017. The third milestone was the promulgation of two new regulations, one relating to doctoral education in 2017 and another to professorship appointments in 2018, in which international publishing databases have been placed at the centre of these policy agendas. Looking ahead, policymakers and academic leaders in vietnam are recommended to further use international publishing metrics to enhance international research outputs and quality. 2020 The author(s).

However, the question of how to fairly and appropriately distribute state funding to public institutions is still challenging, therefore unfair distribution to some extent influence their cost efficiency. Using the quadratic cost function with random effects for a panel structure of 2011/122013/14, this paper aims to estimate economies of scale and scope of public universities and to seek for explaining whether the even application of standardized one size fits all policy in distributing public budget works or not when the cost analysis is stratified into rural and urban universities. The findings show that public universities are cost-inefficient in their performance and there are no economies of scale and scope in public universities. Even distribution of delivering state funding is more likely to be ineffective for public universities due to their different characteristics. Further, integrated teaching at various levels of higher education could be advantageous for rural universities but might not to be the case for their urban counterparts. In the end, policy implications for ameliorating the performance of public institutions are suggested. 2020 National institute of education, singapore. | |

Preservice stem teachers were provided with the opportunity to participate in a national science foundation (nsf) grant funded noyce internship program prior to serving as counselors and teaching assistants in a stem camp for underrepresented middle school students. Through the noyce internship institute, participants were introduced to interactive sessions that model promising teaching practices including inquiry-based and project-based learning. This narrative inquiry examines the impact of these experiences on preservice stem teachers' self-efficacy and highlights outcomes in three areas: increase of preservice teachers' confidence, classroom management, and strengthening their desire to teach stem. 2021 By emerald publishing limited. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | EAL; MEDIATION; REFUGEE STUDENTS; TEACHER COLLABORATION; | This paper examines the collaborative practices of an english as an additional language (eal) teacher and a content area teacher in meeting the needs of refugee students in a secondary science classroom. The study is based in victoria, australia. Drawing on a sociocultural perspective on mediated teacher work, the study gathered qualitative data primarily through two group interviews with the teachers in the middle and at the end of the school term. A secondary source of data includes relevant documents namely teaching materials, students' work, and teachers' notes. Content analysis of data shows two broad collaborative practices, including joint lesson planning and resources development and joint teaching. These collaborative practices were found to create structured mediational spaces that enabled them to effectively work together to meet the needs of refugee eal students in their class. The study generates implications for content and eal teachers in collaboratively addressing the needs of refugees in mainstream classrooms and for school leadership in supporting eal and content teachers in this process.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | IDEAL L2 SELF; INSTRUMENTAL; INTEGRATIVE; L2 LEARNING MOTIVATION; LINGUISTIC CAPITAL; STUDY ABROAD; | This article examines vietnamese students motivation for learning mandarin chinese during their study abroad in taiwan and their construction of self in relation to this language learning motivation. A combination of several concepts of ideal l2 self, ought-to l2 self, instrumental motive, integrative motive, linguistic capital, and multiple self-aspects is used as a theoretical lens to gain insights into the students chinese learning motivation. The study employs a qualitative research approach in which semi-structured interviews with english-medium students from five taiwanese universities were conducted. Findings reveal that the students motivation for learning chinese contributed to portraying their ideal and ought-to chinese selves, which subsume their different instrumental and integrative motives for language learning. The ideal chinese self they would like to become possesses chinese linguistic capital, which would confer on them advantages pertaining to their study, career development and social relations. The students ideal chinese self also incorporates and reinforces their (desired) cultural, economic and social selves. Implications for supporting international students motivation for out-of-class language learning and their construction of self at the institutional level are then discussed. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Mathematics Teacher Learning to Notice: a Systematic Review of Studies of Video-based Programs | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | MATHEMATICS; TEACHER EDUCATION; TEACHER NOTICING; TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; TEACHER PROFESSIONAL VISION; VIDEO; | Teacher noticing has become increasingly acknowledged as a fundamental aspect of teacher professional competence. Teacher education scholars have examined how the development of noticing might be supported both in initial teacher education and in professional development. In mathematics teacher education, several studies have explored the use of video as a supporting tool for teacher noticing. It remains unclear how this body of work builds on the various theoretical perspectives of noticing prevalent in the literature, thus broadening our understanding of noticing. Furthermore, the field has not examined systematically the extent to which research has leveraged the affordances of digital video technologies, and whether scholars have employed different research methods to answer questions that are critical to teacher educators. This survey paper reviews studies published in the last two decades on programs centered on mathematics teacher noticing that used video as a supporting tool for teacher learning. Thirty-five peer-reviewed papers written in english were identified and coded along three dimensions: (1) theoretical perspectives; (2) use of video technologies; and (3) research questions and methods. This review summarizes important findings and highlights several directions for future research. Most studies involved pre-service teachers, and only a few centered on in-service teachers. Developers of the large majority of programs took a cognitive psychological perspective and focused on the attending/perceiving and interpreting/reasoning facets of noticing. Few studies used video-based software and few studies used grouping, and even fewer used randomized grouping. Evidence of program effects on responding and decision making, and on instructional practice, is limited and should be extended in the future. 2021, The author(s). | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTONUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON | This study examines whether changes in classroom quality predict within-child changes in achievement and behavioral problems in elementary school (ages spanning approximately 611years old). Drawing on data from a longitudinal study of children in predominantly low-income, nonurban communities (n=1,078), we relied on child fixed effects modeling, which controlled for stable factors that could bias the effects of classroom quality. In general, we found that changes in classroom quality had small and statistically nonsignificant effects on achievement and behavior. However, we found that moving into a high-quality classroom, particularly those rated as high in classroom organization, had positive effects on achievement and behavior for children with significant exposure to poverty in early life. 2021 Society for research in child development | ||

In this study, we estimate the expressed preferences for teachers who have worked in low-performing schools in tennessee. Using adaptive conjoint analysis survey design, we examine three types of school attributes that may influence teachers employment decisions: fixed school characteristics, structural features of employment, and malleable school processes. We find that teachers express a strong preference for two malleable school processes, administrative support and discipline enforcement, along with a higher salary, a structural feature. Estimates indicate these attributes are 2 to 3 times more important to teachers than fixed school characteristics like prior achievement. We validate our results using administrative data on teachers revealed preferences. 2020 Aera. | |
| Bilingual Identity of Ethnic Minority Students: Insights from Vietnam | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONU.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION WALTON FAMILY FOUNDATIONWALTON FAMILY FOUNDATION | BILINGUAL IDENTITY; LANGUAGE BELIEFS; LANGUAGE MAINTENANCE; LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT; LANGUAGE PRACTICES; MINORITY; | This study examines bilingual identity of vietnamese ethnic minority students as reflected in their language practices, language beliefs and language management. It also focuses on factors related to ethnic-cultural factors, social factors, interaction and investment that influence their bilingual identity. Data were obtained from multiple semi-structured interviews conducted with a group of college-age students. Findings suggest that the students, in practising and managing their languages while being informed by their language beliefs, configured their identity as a process in which both preservation of ethnic identity (maintenance) and construction of mainstream identity (transformation) were active. It is argued that there can be a harmonious coexistence between maintenance and transformation in the same individual under certain social circumstances. For some students however, the transformation tendency inclined to become stronger, and that raises the question of their maintenance of l1 and ethnic identity in the long run. As ethnic-cultural factors seemed to be the most salient influence on the students maintenance orientation, implications for optimising the role of ethnic-cultural factors, that are critical for protection of endangered minority languages, are suggested. 2018 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Building Experience, Opportunities, and the Resume: Motivations of Students Participating in Learning-abroad Programmes Through the New Colombo Plan | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | ASIA; AUSTRALIA; NEW COLOMBO PLAN; STUDENT MOBILITY; STUDY ABROAD; | Student mobility from countries in the anglosphere to the indo-pacific has recently become a significant and growing phenomenon. While there has been a large body of literature on international asian students motivations to undertake overseas study, much less has been known about the desires students from english-speaking countries such as australia have attached to their intra-degree mobility experiences in the indo-pacific. This article responds to this critical gap in the literature. It is based on a research project that includes discourse analysis of government policies and 52 semi-structured interviews with staff and australian students going to china, hong kong, malaysia, indonesia, japan, thailand, india, singapore, cambodia and vietnam through the new colombo plan. The study draws on bourdieus notions of capitals and habitus to analyse students motives and aspirations. The findings show that the integrated cultural, symbolic and social capitals students accrue by engaging in the indo-pacific through learning abroad programmes hold both strategic and transformative appeal and are centred around building experience, opportunities and the resume. While enhancing employability is one of the key drivers for some participants, many also see short-term study in the indo-pacific as being valuable to help them enrich their personal, cultural, experiential and professional selves. However, some are driven by the ncp programme's prestige as a unique and rare opportunity or merely by travelling as lifestyle. Regardless of the value attached to it by the students, the inclusion of learning abroad in a resume marks it as a symbolic capital, thereby giving status and providing a point of differentiation in a crowded labour market. This study provides important implications for institutions to build effective policies and practices for maximising the outcomes of learning abroad programmes. 2020 Herdsa. | |
| Language Choice of Vietnamese Ethnic Minority Students in Family and Community Interactions: Implications for Minority Language Maintenance | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | LANGUAGE CHOICE; LANGUAGE MAINTENANCE; MARKEDNESS; POWER; SOLIDARITY; | This article examines vietnamese ethnic minority students experiences of language choice in communication with people of different ages and in different relations to them in their family and ethnolinguistic community. Concepts of power, solidarity and marked and unmarked choices are adapted to examine the students strategies of language choice. Interviews with a group of students are used as the main data source. Findings suggest that the mainstream language was set up as the generational solidarity code among young members while the l1 was considered the power code associated with older members of the family and community. These emerging patterns of language choice may result in disruption of everyday in-group language practices among different generations and perpetuate language shift. It is suggested that explicit l1-promotion policies in the community and minority language support in public domains may encourage young people to engage in language management efforts and empower minority languages in the polity. 2021 Taylor & francis group, llc. | |

To integrate the findings from these studies and help inform the debate over teacher merit pay, this meta-analysis synthesizes effect sizes across 37 primary studies, 26 of which were conducted in the united states. Among the u.S. Based studies, the results suggest that the effect of teacher merit pay on student test scores is positive and statistically significant (0.043 Standard deviation). This summary effect varies by program design and study context, suggesting that teacher merit pay has the potential to improve student test scores in some contexts but researchers and policymakers should pay close attention to program design and implementation. 2020 Aera. | |

Drawing on my own experiences studying up to better understand how emerging national security policies have criminalized muslim youth, I analyze the methodological considerations, ethical provocations, and accountability processes such projects raise. By (re)broadening what counts as activist educational research using the rubric of transforming existing social arrangements and reaffirming the feminist concept of strong objectivity (harding, 1995), I encourage education scholars across the globe to engage a broader range of methodological approaches to support community struggles for educational justice. 2019 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | KINDERGARTEN; PRESCHOOL; TUITION CREDIT MODELS; | This study examines the denver preschool program (dpp), a voter-approved sales tax initiative that provides a tuition credit for four-year old children to attend preschool. Using propensity weighting and doubly robust modeling on ten cohorts of kindergartners from 20092010 through 20182019, we found dpp participants were more likely to read at grade level and less likely to be retained or to be chronically absent than their similarly-situated non-dpp peers. The absolute magnitude of the effect sizes for reading achievement and chronic absenteeism ranged from 0.21 To 0.28, And were considered substantively important. The relationships were stronger for dpp participants who had enrolled in a school-based, pre-kindergarten program than dpp participants who had enrolled in a community-based preschool, and the effect sizes were almost twice as large for pre-kindergarten participants than for community-based participants on reading achievement. Policy implications are discussed. 2020 Elsevier inc. | |
| Exploring the Self-efficacy Beliefs of Vietnamese Pre-service Teachers of English as a Foreign Language | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE; LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY; PRACTICUM; PRE-SERVICE TEACHER EDUCATION; TEACHERS SELF-EFFICACY BELIEFS; VIETNAM; | There is growing evidence that the self-efficacy beliefs of english as a foreign language (efl) teachers in east asian contexts and their second language (l2) proficiency intersect to shape teaching behaviour. However, due to sometimes uncritical use of research instruments developed in the west, imported without sufficient adaptation into confucian-heritage cultures, the strength of the relationship between efl teachers self-efficacy beliefs and their l2 proficiency may be less clear, for example with pre-service teachers (psts). As this group is under-researched, it is also less clear how psts self-efficacy beliefs develop during the practicum, shaped by which influences. Set in a vietnamese context with psts drawn from two major universities, our longitudinal mixed methods study addresses these issues. Employing exploratory factor analysis, we reveal dimensions of the psts self-efficacy beliefs. Our correlation and regression analyses then indicate consistent and strong relationships between these beliefs and l2 proficiency, apparently impacted by vietnamese cultural and contextual factors. Our paired samples t-tests highlight self-efficacy beliefs growth in general pedagogical skills during the practicum, while content analysis of qualitative data reveals the kinds of experiences that impacted change, including those experiences provided by school mentors. Implications for l2 teacher education and research are discussed. 2020 | |

Tiếng Anh | SRINAKHARINWIROT UNIVERSITYSRINAKHARINWIROT UNIVERSITY | IFRS APPLICATION ROADMAP; IFRS BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES; | ACCORDING TO THE SURVEY RESULTS OF THE INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD (IASB), CURRENTLY, 131/143 COUNTRIES (ACCOUNTING FOR 93%) HAVE HAD OFFICIAL STATEMENTS ON THE APPLICATION OF IFRS WITH DIFFERENT FORMS. AMONG COUNTRIES WHICH HAVE NOT PERMITTED IFRS APPLICATION, THERE IS ALSO A TENDENCY TO ADJUST THE NATIONAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS SYSTEM TO MATCH UP TO IFRS. VIETNAM IS PREPARING A ROADMAP FOR THE APPLICATION OF IFRS IN 2022. THIS PAPER CONDUCTS A STUDY WITH 23 IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AND SURVEY WITH 92 EXPERTS WHO ARE UNIVERSITY LECTURERS, RESEARCHERS FROM RESEARCH INSTITUTES, EXPERTS IN THE FIELDS OF SECURITIES, BANKING, FINANCE IN ORDER TO COLLECT SOME IDEAS ON THE ROADMAP, SUBJECTS AND SCOPE OF IFRS APPLICATION; ASSESS THE BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES WHEN APPLYING IFRS; THEN GIVE THE IMPLICATIONS OF IFRS APPLICATION PROCESS IN VIETNAM. THE IDEAS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE OPINION THAT PREPARING IFRS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WILL IMPROVE THE TRANSPARENCY OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. HOWEVER, EXPERTS THINK THAT THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WHEN ADOPTING IFRS IS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH EXPENSES. THEREFORE, MOST OPINIONS SUGGEST THAT BUSINESSES NEED 3 TO 5 YEARS TO PREPARE HUMAN RESOURCES AND OTHER NECESSARY CONDITIONS FOR IFRS APPLICATION. IN ADDITION, IN THE FIRST PERIOD, THERE IS A NEED TO APPLY IFRS TO LISTED COMPANIES, PUBLIC COMPANIES, FOREIGN-INVESTED ENTERPRISES, ENCOURAGE LARGE COMPANIES TO APPLY VOLUNTARILY. BESIDES, THE STUDY SUGGESTS SOME IMPLICATIONS ABOUT THE IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS FOR ORGANIZATIONS, INDIVIDUALS AND THE GOVERNMENT. 2020 BY THE AUTHORS; LICENSEE GROWING SCIENCE, CANADA. | |

THE PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY IS TO DETERMINE THE APPROPRIATE LEADERSHIP STYLE ON HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS AND THE ROLE OF THE LEADER IN PROMOTING ACADEMIC RESEARCH AT VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITIES. EXCELLENT AND EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP IS NEEDED TO DEVELOP EMPLOYEES AS A SUSTAINABLE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE. THE LEADERS OF ORGANIZATIONS NORMALLY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN SPEEDING UP THE PERFORMANCE OF THEIR FOLLOWERS. INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE IS STUDIED AND EVALUATED IN BOTH SCHOLARLY AND PRACTICAL LITERATURE. EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT IS NOT ONLY A MODERATOR CONCEPT ESTABLISHED IN ORGANIZATIONAL THEORY, BUT IT ALSO OFFERS A VARIETY OF VIEWS AND THEORIES. THIS PAPER DESIGNS A QUESTIONNAIRE AND DISTRIBUTES IT AMONG 232 STUDENTS TO MEASURE THE EFFECT OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN HIGHER EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS. REGRESSION ANALYSIS IS USED TO MEASURE THE EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT COMPONENTS OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP ON THE PERFORMANCE OF ORGANIZATIONS. THE SURVEY RESULTS INDICATE THAT THE TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP COULD ACTUALLY BE EFFECTIVE WHEN THEY ARE ALLOWED AUTONOMY IN ORGANIZATIONS, ESPECIALLY ON THE BUDGET. IN SUMMARY, THE RESULTS OF THE INVESTIGATION CLARIFY THE ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN ORGANIZATIONS. 2020 BY THE AUTHORS; LICENSEE GROWING SCIENCE, CANADA.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | DISCOURSE ANALYSIS; NETWORK ANALYSIS; PROCESS MINING; PROJECT-BASED LEARNING; REGULATION; | Collaborative tasks do not always promote equal learning. Varying levels of social interactions and regulation at the individual and group levels can influence knowledge construction efforts and learning success. To understand which collaboration patterns may be more conducive to learning, this study examined the relation between social exchange, regulation, and learning outcomes. Four project-based engineering undergraduate teams were audiotaped in collaborative tasks (7514 talk turns). Discourse was coded for regulation processes and types (self and socially shared regulation), and analyzed with epistemic network analysis and process mining. We find that teams who reported more frequent social exchange engaged in shared regulation together with planning and monitoring more frequently, while teams with less exchange engaged in long durations of collaboration. Furthermore, students in teams with more engaged regulation reported enhanced beliefs in group efficacy to solve collaborative tasks. The study illustrates the potential of applying quantitative approaches to analyzing rich discourse. 2021 Elsevier ltd | |

The paper offers the concept of value to consider employees knowledge, skills, and attributes, and value flows as the deployment of these resources. This value-based approach to talent management is illustrated using qualitative data collected from semi-structured interviews with vietnamese international graduates and members of their employment networks. The focus on international graduates considers the vietnamese governments policies of internationalisation of higher education as a strategic investment to improve the quality of human resources to meet the countrys socioeconomic development needs for global integration. The paper offers some implications for policies and practices to develop and harness talent in emerging economies like vietnam. 2021 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Impact of Computer Modeling on Learning and Teaching Systems Thinking | , | 2021 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREANATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF KOREA | COMPUTER MODELING; INSTRUCTION; QUASI-EXPERIMENT; SYSTEMS THINKING; | Researchers have found that computer modeling fosters the learning of causal mechanisms in systems, an important crosscutting concept in science that many novice learners find challenging. Despite the research that highlights the role of teacher's instructional practices in enacting computer tools, few studies have considered teachers' use of computer modeling and its implications for student learning in classroom interactions, compared to interactions without computer tools. In this study, we examine (a) the impact of computer modeling on students' understanding of causal links in decomposition and (b) classroom interactions with use of computer modeling. We employed a quasi-experimental design with eight middle school science classes that served predominately latinx students. The random treatment was at the class level (computer modeling; n = 60, four classes) and control (paper modeling; n = 59, four classes). Analyses incorporated student preassessment and postassessment, classroom observations, and audio-recorded modeling instruction. Results indicate that compared to paper modeling, computer modeling enriched systems thinking, particularly students' ability to provide causally coherent statements in explaining scientific ideas and evidence. Enactment of computer modeling may be associated with a shift in classroom interactions to include more invitation for students' elaboration of causal systems. We discuss aspects of computer modeling that may foster systems thinking, with implications for the future design of tools and curricula. 2020 National association for research in science teaching | |

Tiếng Anh | JAPAN SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCIENCEJAPAN SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCIENCE | CITIZENSHIP; COOPERATIVE LEARNING; EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT; EXPLICIT LEARNING; IMPLICIT LEARNING; SELF-EFFICACY; | To solve the wicked problems of sustainability, education for sustainable development (efsd) that raises the young generation to become change agents is necessary. For this purpose, fieldtrips that educate students in the real world about other stakeholders are effective, but since sustainable issues do not have clear solutions, cooperative learning (cl) in which students learn from each other is useful. The purpose of this study is to clarify the influence of the learning process on learning outcomes and their influence on learning objectives in real-world efsd using cl. A hypothesis model consisting of seven hypotheses was set up, and a questionnaire survey of high school students who participated in the real-world efsd was conducted. Results of the structural equation modeling of data from 2441 respondents supported all seven hypotheses. Implicit learning as a learning process promotes knowledge acquisition as a learning outcome, while explicit learning enhances self-efficacy. Although knowledge acquisition promotes citizenship development as the learning objective of efsd, self-efficacy does not promote citizenship development. Self-efficacy affects knowledge acquisition more than implicit learning. This study contributes to efsd research by clarifying the difference in the effects of the learning process. 2021 By the author. Licensee mdpi, basel, switzerland. | |

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | INTERCULTURAL; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; SECONDARY SCHOOLS; SOCIAL NETWORKS; | Most research on international students experiences has focused on tertiary settings and consistently shows that this cohort negotiates significant risks during their time abroad. This paper draws on data from the first year of a three-year australian research council funded study to address the un(der)examined cohort of young people who complete their secondary school education as international students and temporary sojourners in australia. We analyse the data from the initial interviews undertaken with 60 year 10 international students during their first year of the senior secondary schooling. Drawing upon the theoretical resources associated with the politics of belonging, we ask if, and in what ways, students felt themselves to be marked as other to constructed educational and social norms. We note the significant role that online activity played in helping students deal with feelings of disconnect and exclusion. 2021 Elsevier ltd | |

This study is the first to examine predictors of early reading in vietnamese, a transparent orthography of romanized letters and diacritics. Eighty-two children in hanoi, vietnam, completed measures of decoding and oral language in kindergarten (phonological awareness, pa; rapid automatized naming, ran; receptive and expressive vocabulary) and measures of decoding and reading comprehension in first grade. Average performance at the end of first grade, after just 1year of formal instruction, was near ceiling on word reading but more variable on nonword and text reading. Kindergarten pa and ran (but not vocabulary) predicted first-grade decoding after controlling for maternal education and kindergarten decoding, and pa was a stronger predictor than ran (10% vs. 4% Of unique variance). The best predictors of first grade reading comprehension were first-grade decoding (47% of unique variance) and kindergarten expressive vocabulary (4% of unique variance) after controlling for maternal education. Overall, vietnamese children became accurate and efficient decoders after 1year of instruction. Findings from ran and pa suggest their utility in guiding differentiated instruction on decoding. Kindergarten vocabulary, which differed as a function of maternal education, significantly predicted first-grade comprehension. 2020, Springer nature b.V. | |
| Co-designing for Privacy, Transparency, and Trust in K-12 Learning Analytics | , | 2021 | CONFERENCE PAPER |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | CO-DESIGN; DASHBOARDS; ETHICS; HCI; K-12 EDUCATION; PRIVACY; | The process of using learning analytics (la) to improve teaching works from the assumption that data should be readily shared between stakeholders in an educational organization. However, the design of la tools often does not account for considerations such as data privacy, transparency and trust among stakeholders. Research in human-centered design of la does attend to these questions, specifically with a focus on including direct input from k-12 educators. In this paper, we present a series of design studies to articulate and refine conjectures about how privacy and transparency might influence better trust-building and data sharing within four school districts in the united states. By presenting the development of four sequential prototypes, our findings illuminate the tensions between designing for existing norms versus potentially challenging these norms by promoting meaningful discussions around the use of data. We conclude with a discussion about practical and methodological implications of our work to the la community. 2021 Owner/author. | |

AMONG THOSE, THERE ARE 170 PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES, 60 PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES AND 5 FOREIGN-OWNED UNIVERSITIES. ALL VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITIES MUST FOLLOW THE VIETNAMESE LAW OF HIGHER EDUCATION, SUPERVISED AND INSPECTED BY THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING; NEVERTHELESS, THE 170 PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES ARE NOT NECESSARY UNDER THIS MINISTRY BUT CAN BE UNDER DIFFERENT MINISTRIES OR EQUIVALENT ONES. AROUND TEN YEARS AGO, MANY PROVINCES IN VIETNAM ESTABLISHED UNIVERSITIES UNDER THEMSELVES, OF COURSE PUBLIC ONES, SO-CALLED PROVINCIAL UNIVERSITIES. THE MEKONG DELTA IN VIETNAM PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY, AND SOME PROVINCES IN THIS AREA HAVE PROVINCIAL UNIVERSITIES UNDER THEMSELVES. HOWEVER, THE QUALITY OF THESE UNIVERSITIES IS QUESTIONABLE, WHILE THE UNEMPLOYMENT OF UNIVERSITY GRADUATES HAS RECENTLY BEEN VERY CONCERNED. THIS PAPER WAS TO INVESTIGATE THE PERFORMANCE OF PROVINCIAL UNIVERSITIES IN THE MEKONG DELTA IN VIETNAM. THE STUDY SHOWED THAT KEY INDICATORS OF PROVINCIAL UNIVERSITIES IN THIS AREA WERE CONSIDERABLY LOW.

IN ADDITION, THE STUDY HAS EXAMINED THE MEDIATING ROLE OF EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CAREER MANAGEMENT POLICY AND JOB PERFORMANCE, BETWEEN CAREER DEVELOPMENT AND JOB PERFORMANCE, AND BETWEEN CAREER INFORMATION AND JOB PERFORMANCE. LASTLY, THE MODERATING ROLE OF JOB SECURITY IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION AND JOB PERFORMANCE WAS EXAMINED. THE STUDY OFFERS A PERSPECTIVE THAT EXPLAINS THE RELATION BETWEEN JOB SATISFACTION AND THE LEVEL OF HAPPINESS OF EMPLOYEES. EMPLOYEE HAPPINESS LEVELS ARE ALSO MEASURED BY JOB SATISFACTION, WHICH FULFILS THE EMPLOYEE'S NEEDS AND DESIRES AT THE WORKPLACE. HAPPINESS LEVELS CORRELATE WITH EMPLOYEE EFFORTS TO ATTAIN THEIR NEEDS AND DESIRES. THE INTANGIBLE VARIABLE CAN BE OBSERVED AND EXPRESSED THROUGH THE EMOTIONAL FEELINGS; JOB SATISFACTION IS ONE OF THE INTANGIBLE VARIABLES. IF THE JOB MEETS ACCEPTABLE PHYSIOLOGICAL AS WELL AS PSYCHOLOGICAL NEEDS, THE LEVEL OF JOB SATISFACTION INCREASES. THE CURRENT STUDY HAS FILLED THIS GAP. HOWEVER, THIS STUDY IS AMONG THE PIONEERING STUDIES ON THIS ISSUE. EMPLOYING THE SURVEY-BASED METHODOLOGY; THE SEM-PLS TECHNIQUE WAS USED TO TEST THE HYPOTHESISED RELATIONSHIPS. SO, THE CURRENT STUDY HAS USED SEM-PLS AS A STATISTICAL TOOL TO ANSWER THE RESEARCH QUESTIONS RAISED IN THIS STUDY AND RESEARCH OBJECTIVES ENVISAGED IN THE CURRENT STUDY. PRIVATE SCHOOL TEACHERS IN INDONESIA WERE GIVEN SURVEYS TO COLLECT THE DATA OF THE STUDY. THE FINDINGS OF THE STUDY HAVE PROVIDED SUPPORT FOR THE THEORETICAL FOUNDATION AND THE PROPOSED HYPOTHESIS OF THE CURRENT STUDY. THE CURRENT STUDY WILL BE HELPFUL FOR POLICYMAKERS AND PRACTITIONERS IN UNDERSTANDING THE ISSUES RELATED TO CAREER MANAGEMENT POLICY, CAREER DEVELOPMENT, CAREER INFORMATION, EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION, JOB SECURITY AND JOB PERFORMANCE.

FOR UNIVERSITIES, THIS MEANS THAT THE CONTEXT OF TEACHING HAS CHANGED, WITH GREAT INTEREST AND HIGH DEMANDS FROM THE COMMUNITY. UNIVERSITIES ARE PUT UNDER PRESSURE TO PROVIDE THEIR STUDENTS WITH TRAINING FOR LEARNING OUTCOMES OF INTERNATIONALLY REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, CAREER SKILLS AND ATTITUDES. THIS MEANS THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR AN IMPORTANT CHANGE IN THINKING AND PRACTICE IN OPERATING THE UNIVERSITY. THE BURDEN OF GREAT RESPONSIBILITY REQUIRES A REORGANISATION OF UNIVERSITY OPERATING ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING CHANGES IN THE GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE, TEACHING METHODS AND CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT, AND CLEARLY DEFINING LEARNING OUTCOMES. HIGHER EDUCATION HAS EXPERIENCED CONSIDERABLE CHANGE DUE TO THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0, WHICH IS A RESULT OF THE DIGITAL WORLD. UNIVERSITIES MUST HAVE ACCESS TO THE ADVANCED CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT METHODS ADOPTED BY EDUCATION QUALITY MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATIONS. THE CDIO APPROACH IS ONE OF THE LEADING ADVANCED METHODS OF DEVELOPING HIGHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS CURRENTLY BEING IMPLEMENTED BY TECHNICAL UNIVERSITIES.

Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | BILINGUAL EDUCATION; BILINGUAL MODEL; ENGLISH TEACHING; PRIMARY SCHOOL; | LESS THAN A QUARTER OF COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD RECOGNISE THE USE OF TWO OFFICIAL LANGUAGES IN THEIR COUNTRY. IN MULTILINGUAL COUNTRIES, GOVERNMENTS EITHER OPENLY OR IMPLICITLY ENFORCE A MONOPOLY POLICY EVEN THOUGH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO CAN SPEAK TWO OR MORE LANGUAGES OVERWHELMS THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO CAN ONLY SPEAK ONE LANGUAGE. THIS MONOLOGUE POLICY HAS CAUSED MANY POLITICAL, SOCIO-ECONOMIC, AND EDUCATIONAL DISADVANTAGES FOR MINORITY LANGUAGE SPEAKERS. THEREFORE, A NEW EDUCATION-BILINGUAL EDUCATION HAS GRADUALLY BEEN EXPANDED IN THESE MULTILINGUAL COUNTRIES. VIETNAMESE-ENGLISH BILINGUAL EDUCATION AT THE PRIMARY LEVEL IN VIETNAM IS ATTRACTING MUCH ATTENTION FROM MANAGERS, EDUCATORS, AND PARENTS. AT MOST PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN VIETNAM, ENGLISH IS INTRODUCED, AND THE PROGRAM IS FROM GRADE 3; EVEN SOME SCHOOLS HAVE TRIED TO USE ENGLISH TO TEACH SOME SUBJECTS SUCH AS MATH AND SCIENCE FROM 1ST GRADE TOWARDS BILINGUAL EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN. THIS STUDY WAS CONDUCTED AT TWO PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN HANOI TO UNDERSTAND THE MODEL, ORIENTATION, AND VIEWS ON BILINGUAL EDUCATION THROUGH A SURVEY OF 41 TEACHERS AND INTERVIEW 2 PROFESSIONAL MANAGERS AND 2 SCHOOL LEADERS. THE RESEARCH RESULTS SHOW THAT ALTHOUGH THE SHARED OPINION OF BOTH SCHOOLS' LEADERS AND LECTURERS SUPPORTS BILINGUAL EDUCATION, AT PRESENT, NEW SCHOOLS ARE ONLY IN THE DIRECTION OF INTENSIVE ENGLISH, THERE IS NO BILINGUAL TRAINING MODEL DUE TO REASONS SUCH AS THE NUMBER OF SUBJECTS THAT CAN BE TAUGHT IN ENGLISH, THE LENGTH OF CLASS, TEACHERS AND EDUCATION POLICY.

THE WORLD IS NOW ENTERING THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0, WHICH REQUIRES EACH INDIVIDUAL TO ACQUIRE AND UPDATE A LARGE AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE, MODERN ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE FIELDS OF NATURAL SCIENCES, SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES SO THEY CAN ADAPT QUICKLY TO MODERN LIFE. THE TEACHING PROCESS IN HIGH SCHOOLS IS STRUGGLING TO MAINTAIN PACE, AS THE VOLUME OF KNOWLEDGE IS INCREASING AND BECOMING MORE COMPLICATED, BUT THE AVAILABLE LEARNING TIME IS LIMITED. TO RESOLVE SUCH CONFLICTS, INNOVATIVE EDUCATION AND TEACHING METHODS ARE REQUIRED, ORIENTED TO DEVELOPING STUDENTS' CAPACITY TO FOSTER AN ABILITY FOR SELF-STUDY AND THE CAPACITY FOR LIFELONG LEARNING. THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING ISSUED A DRAFT GENERAL EDUCATION PROGRAM IN AUGUST 2015, WHICH INCLUDES ESSENTIAL INNOVATIONS. THEREFORE, THE MANAGEMENT OF SCHOOLS-AND PARTICULARLY THE MANAGEMENT OF TEACHING ACTIVITIES-MUST ALSO MAKE CHANGES TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROGRAM. LEADERS OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS NEED TO MASTER AND ACTIVELY DIRECT THE RENOVATION OF TEACHING ACTIVITIES IN INCLUSIVE SCHOOLS IN ORDER TO IMPLEMENT THE GENERAL SCHOOL EDUCATION PROGRAM.

HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES HELP ORIENT HUMAN DEVELOPMENT, CLOSELY RELATED TO SOCIAL ISSUES, IT IS THE SCIENCE THAT DIRECTS PEOPLE TO SINCERITY-HOLINESS-BEAUTY THAT FEW SCIENCES CAN REPLACE. THE TEACHING STAFF IS THE FORCE THAT DETERMINES THE QUALITY OF TRAINING. TEACHERS OF SOCIAL SCIENCES HAVE THE DUTY TO CONVEY THE QUINTESSENCE OF THE NATION, THEREBY EDUCATING MANY SUCCESSIVE GENERATIONS WITH QUALITY AND RELIABLE KNOWLEDGE TO SHOULDER THE WORK OF THE COUNTRY. THE OLD EXPERIENCE IS THAT THERE MUST BE GOOD TEACHERS IN BASIC SCIENCES IN GENERAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCES IN PARTICULAR IN ORDER TO TEACH WELL AND SOLIDLY DEVELOP EDUCATIONAL SCIENCE. TO CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING IN SCHOOLS, A PERMANENT SOLUTION IS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF SOCIAL SCIENCE TEACHERS. THEY ARE PEOPLE WHO DIRECTLY EQUIP THEMSELVES WITH KNOWLEDGE, EDUCATE, BUILD UP THEIR POLITICAL SPIRIT, BELIEFS, MOTIVES, AND WILLS; IN PARTICULAR, TEACHING CAPACITY IS THE ESSENTIAL FACTOR.

A NEW FORM OF "BULLYING" CALLED "CYBERBULLYING" IS ALSO CREATING A HIGH AMOUNT OF ANXIETY AND ATTENTION TO SOCIETY, ESPECIALLY IN THE CURRENT PERIOD, WHEN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IS GROWING. THE USE OF MOBILE PHONES AND THE INTERNET TO POST INAPPROPRIATE OR HARMFUL IMAGES OR USE CRUEL WORDS TO INSULT SOMEONE HAS CAUSED EMOTIONAL TRAUMA AND PSYCHOLOGY FOR THEM, MAKING THEM AFFECTED THEIR STUDIES AND ACTIVITIES. EQUIPPING TEACHERS AND STUDENTS WITH KNOWLEDGE OF BULLYING, IN PARTICULAR, TALKS ABOUT BULLYING AND RELATED FACTORS SUCH AS GENDER, AGE, PERSONALITY, FAMILIES CAN HELP REDUCE BULLYING IN SCHOOLS. ACTIVITIES SUCH AS LIFE VALUE TRAINING, SKILLS TO MAKE FRIENDS AND COMMUNICATE WITH FRIENDS WILL HELP THEM KNOW HOW TO TREAT YOU BETTER. LIFE SKILLS COURSES CAN HELP STUDENTS BE ABLE TO COPE WITH AND SOLVE THE DIFFICULTIES AND CONFLICTS ENCOUNTERED IN LIFE MOST EFFECTIVELY. FROM THERE, CONTRIBUTING TO IMPROVING THE BULLYING PHENOMENON IN STUDENTS IS INCREASINGLY SEVERE TODAY. BULLIES COME IN MANY FORMS AND LEVELS. OVER TIME, MOST OF US, IN OUR CHILDHOOD OR AS ADULTS, MAY HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOME BULLIES. RECENT STATISTICS SHOW THAT ONE IN FOUR CHILDREN IS OCCASIONALLY BULLIED. AT WORK, AT HOME, IN THE MILITARY, IN HOSPITALS, EVEN IN NURSING HOMES, BULLYING HAS BECOME A PROBLEM FOR ADULTS. WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH BULLIES CAREFULLY, AND ABOVE ALL, THAT BEHAVIOUR MUST BE PREVENTED.

Tiếng Anh | KEMENTERIAN PENDIDIKAN MALAYSIAKEMENTERIAN PENDIDIKAN MALAYSIA | SECONDARY SCHOOL; STEM; STEM EDUCATION; TEACHER; | STEM EDUCATION (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATHS) IS AN EDUCATIONAL ORIENTATION THAT OF INTEREST TO VIETNAM AS WELL AS MOST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD. HOWEVER, HOW STEM EDUCATION SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED, ESPECIALLY IN THE CONTEXT OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES LIKE VIETNAM THAT HAVE CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON ECONOMY AND FACILITIES, IS STILL A MATTER OF CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE STUDIED AND INVESTIGATED. CURRENTLY, THERE ARE STILL MANY DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OF STEM EDUCATION, WHICH LENDS ITSELF TO A VERY DIVERSE AND INCONSISTENT IMPLEMENTATION OF STEM EDUCATION. IN ORDER TO IMPLEMENT STEM TEACHING EFFECTIVELY AND COMPREHENSIVELY, IT IS NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND THE PERCEPTIONS OF STEM EDUCATION BY EDUCATORS, AND THEREBY FIND AN APPROPRIATE WAY TO IMPLEMENT THIS EDUCATIONAL ORIENTATION SO AS TO CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING TRAINING EFFECTIVENESS. THIS PAPER PRESENTS THE IDEAS OF 200 TEACHERS OF NATURAL SCIENCE SUBJECTS AT THE SECONDARY SCHOOL LEVEL IN VIETNAM ON STEM EDUCATION, FROM WHICH THE ORIENTATION FOR IMPLEMENTING STEM EDUCATION IS APPROPRIATE. 2020 PRIMROSE HALL PUBLISHING GROUP. | |

A TOTAL OF 215 STUDENTS AGED 1318 YEARS COMPLETED AN ONLINE SURVEY USING RESPONDENT-DRIVEN SAMPLING METHOD. THE EXPERIENCE OF BEING CYBERBULLIED WAS EXAMINED USING THE MODIFIED PATCHIN AND HINDUJAS SCALE. THE PREVALENCE OF EXPERIENCING AT LEAST ONE TYPE OF CYBERBULLYING WAS 45.1%. THE MOST COMMON TYPE OF CYBERBULLYING WAS BEING CALLED BY NAMES/MADE FUN OF. THE AVERAGE DAILY TIME SPENT ON INTERNET SHOWED DOSE-RESPONSE ASSOCIATION WITH THE RISK OF BEING CYBERBULLIED. THE PREVALENCE OF HAVING EXPERIENCED CYBERBULLYING WAS 54% AMONG SUBJECTS WHO USED INTERNET >3 HOURS/DAY COMPARED TO 39% AMONG THOSE WHO USED 13 HOURS AND 30% AMONG THOSE WHO USED <1 HOUR. IN TERMS OF PRACTICES TO COPE WITH THIS, MOST STUDENTS CHOSE TO IGNORE IT AND NOT SHARE INFORMATION WITH THEIR FAMILY OR TEACHER. THE MOST FREQUENT METHOD TO OVERCOME THIS PROBLEM WAS TALKING WITH FRIENDS (60.8%). RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THE PREVALENCE OF CYBERBULLYING VICTIMIZATION IN HANOI WAS HIGH, AND STUDENTS PRACTICES TO COPE WITH THIS NEW FORM OF BULLYING WERE NOT EFFICIENT. ONLINE TIME HAD DOSE-RESPONSE ASSOCIATION WITH RISK OF CYBERBULLYING. MORE ATTENTION IS NEEDED TO INCREASE LEVEL OF SOCIETY/SCHOOL AWARENESS TO PREVENT CYBERBULLYING IN HANOI. THE AUTHOR(S) 2020. | |

THIS PAPER EMPLOYS MIXED RESEARCH METHODS-MEASURING CRONBACH'S ALPHA, EFA, REGRESSION AND USING PATH MODEL-TO TEST THE HYPOTHESES OF THE RESEARCH MODEL. THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY IDENTIFY FIVE FACTORS: PRESTIGE, GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION, FACILITIES, ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE FIELD AND MEDIA. ALL THESE FACTORS HAVE A POSITIVE INFLUENCE ON THE STANDING OF THE UNIVERSITY BRAND. IT MEANS THAT THE HIGHER THE PRESTIGE, GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION, FACILITIES, ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE FIELD AND MEDIA, THE HIGHER THE UNIVERSITY BRAND. THE RESULTS INDICATE THAT GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION IS THE MOST INFLUENTIAL FACTOR TO ENHANCE THE PRIVATE UNIVERSITYS BRAND. BRINGING GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION IS, THUS, ADVISABLE TO ENHANCE A UNIVERSITY STANDING. THE BRAND PLAYS A DETERMINING ROLE IN STUDENTS' TRUST WHEN SELECTING A UNIVERSITY. MEDIA IS STILL THE TOP CONCERN OF NEW STUDENTS WHEN THEY CHOOSE TO STUDY AT A UNIVERSITY. MEDIA STILL REMAINS AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION FOR NEW STUDENTS WHEN CHOOSING A UNIVERSITY. SO, THIS FACTOR SHOULD BE UTILIZED BY UNIVERSITIES TO ENHANCE THEIR ATTRACTIVENESS. THE AUTHOR(S). | |

EMPLOYERS OFTEN EVALUATE CANDIDATES BASED ON 3 FACTORS: KNOWLEDGE-SKILL-ATTITUDE. IN PARTICULAR, THE ATTITUDE AT WORK IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED BECAUSE SKILLS CAN BE TRAINED BUT SELF-AWARENESS AND INITIATIVE ARE NOT. THEREFORE, THE REQUIREMENTS FOR STUDENTS REQUIRE SKILLS TO SERVE THE JOB POSITION. HOWEVER, CURRENT BIRTHS LACK PROFESSIONAL AND SOFT SKILLS. STUDENTS FROM HIGH SCHOOL TO COLLEGE ARE NOT ABLE TO ADAPT TO THE WAY OF LEARNING AND WORKING BECAUSE THE ENVIRONMENT IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. MOST STUDENTS WHILE STILL IN SCHOOL ARE NOT AWARE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SKILLS FOR JOB REQUIREMENTS, NO SENSE OF STUDY, NO SPIRIT OF WORK OR HAVE BUT DO NOT FIND INTEREST IN THEREFORE, THE WORK IS NOT AT ITS BEST AND THE EFFICIENCY IS NOT HIGH.

THUS, ONE AIM OF THIS PAPER IS TO ESTIMATE THE PREVALENCE OF THESE INCONSTRUCTIVE STRATEGIES, AND EXPLORE MORE POSITIVE COPING STRATEGIES THROUGH OBSERVATION OF UNDERGRADUATE MEDICAL STUDENTS IN VIETNAM. THE METHODOLOGY THAT HAS BEEN EMPLOYED FOR THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN A CROSS-SECTIONAL ANALYSIS THAT WAS CONDUCTED ON 411 FIRST YEAR MEDICAL STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE AND PHARMACY IN THE CITIES OF HO CHI MINH AND CAN THO WHO HAVE SHOWN SIGNS OF STRESS INDICATIVE OF LOW MENTAL WELL-BEING-THAT BEING A WHO-5 SCORE OF 13 OR UNDER OR AN ANSWER OF 0 TO 1 TO ANY OF THE FIVE ITEMS OF A WHO-5 MENTAL DISAGNSTIC TEST. PARTICIPANTS COMPLETED A SELF-REPORT QUESTIONNAIRE INCLUDING A DEPRESSION ANXIETY STRESS SCALE AND A COPING STRATEGIES INVENTORY SCALE. THE RESULTS SHOW A PREVALENCE OF DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, AND STRESS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED IN 51.6%, 70.3% AND 49.9% OF STUDENTS RESPECTIVELY. PROBLEM SOLVING WAS IMPACTED MOSTLY BY THE FAILURE OF COPING STRATEGIES, AND SUBSEQUENT FAILURES IN COGNITIVE RESTRUCTURING. STUDENTS WHO HAD MENTAL DISORDERS WERE MORE LIKELY TO ENGAGE IN NEGATIVE COPING STRATEGIES SUCH AS SELF-CRITICISM, AND WERE LESS LIKELY TO CHOOSE POSITIVE COPING STRATEGIES SUCH AS EXPRESSIONS OF EMOTION AND PROBLEM SOLVING. MEDICAL STUDENTS FACE A WIDE RANGE OF STRESSFUL SITUATIONS, AND THE FINDINGS OF THESE PARTICULAR STUDENTS SUGGEST THAT THERE IS A FAILURE OF COPING STRATEGIES TO OVERCOME THESE STRESSFUL OCCURENCES. THE FINDINGS INDICATE AN URGENT NEED TO DEVELOP STRESS MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND TRAINING WORKSHOPS TO BUILD UP EARLY PREVENTIVE MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AT MEDICAL SCHOOLS AND TO IMPROVE STUDENT SUPPORT SYSTEMS.

NUMEROUS STUDIES HAVE EXAMINED FACTORS AFFECTING ENTREPRENEURIAL ATTITUDES AND INTENTION IN A VARIETY OF GEOGRAPHICAL CONTEXTS. HOWEVER, A FEW STUDIES USE MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS THEORY AS A THEORETICAL BACKGROUND TO EXPLAIN THE MOTIVATIONS FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP. THEREFORE, THIS PAPER FILLS IN THE GAP IN THE EXISTING LITERATURE OF MOTIVATIONS AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP. A RESEARCH MODEL WAS ADAPTED FROM RELATED WORK TO TEST THE INFLUENCE OF DEFICIENCY-NEED MOTIVATIONS AND GROWTH-NEED MOTIVATION ON THE ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION OF VIETNAMESE YOUNG PEOPLE. BASED ON THE DATA FROM A SELF-ADMINISTERED SURVEY WITH 600 VIETNAMESE STUDENTS, RESEARCH RESULTS CONFIRMED THE POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION AND DEFICIENCY NEEDS, SUCH AS PHYSIOLOGICAL NEEDS, SAFETY NEEDS, AND BELONGINGNESS NEEDS. MORE INTERESTINGLY, GENDER PLAYS A CONTROLLING ROLE IN THE MENTIONED RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MOTIVATIONS AND ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION. THESE FINDINGS SUGGEST SOLUTIONS FOR POLICYMAKERS AND UNIVERSITIES TO PROMOTE ENTREPRENEURSHIP AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE. ALLIED BUSINESS ACADEMIES. | |

Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | BEHAVIORISM; CONSTRUCTIVISM; PROJECT-BASED LEARNING; TEACHING PHILOSOPHY; | A TEACHER'S TEACHING PHILOSOPHY IS THE NORTHERN STAR FOR DIRECTING THEIR PRACTICES. DIFFERENT TEACHERS HAVE THEIR OWN VIEWS OF EFFECTIVE ROUTES FOR THEIR STUDENTS' ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AND THUS FOLLOW DIFFERENT TEACHING APPROACHES IN DELIVERING COURSES. PROJECT-BASED LEARNING (PBL) IS CONSTANTLY GAINING POPULARITY IN COMPUTING AND ENGINEERING EDUCATION, ESPECIALLY IN WESTERN EDUCATION SYSTEMS. HOWEVER, THIS APPROACH IS STILL PRELIMINARY IN THE PHILIPPINES, AND THE TRANSITION FROM THE TRADITIONAL TO PBL IS STILL CHALLENGING FOR EDUCATORS OF THIS REGION, WHERE MOST OF THE TEACHING IS STILL VERY MUCH TEACHER-CENTERED AND LECTURE-BASED. THIS STUDY EXPLORES THE COMPATIBILITY AND MISMATCHES BETWEEN COMPUTING AND ENGINEERING TEACHERS' TEACHING PHILOSOPHIES AND PRINCIPLES OF PBL APPROACH. THE TEACHING PHILOSOPHIES ARE INVESTIGATED THROUGH THE TWO LENSES OF BEHAVIORISM AND CONSTRUCTIVISM. THE PARTICIPANTS ARE NON-PBL PRACTITIONERS FROM DIFFERENT UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES IN THE PHILIPPINES WHO HAVE THE DESIRE TO DELIVER PBL IN COMPUTING AND ENGINEERING COURSES FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE STUDY IS CONDUCTED WITH MIXED METHODS UTILIZING A SURVEY FOLLOWED BY AN IN-DEPTH INTERVIEW, WHICH COVER THE PARTICIPANTS' (1) BELIEF OF LEARNERS, (2) CURRICULUM FLEXIBILITY, (3) TEACHING-LEARNING ACTIVITIES, (4) TEACHERS' ROLES AND (5) ASSESSMENT IN COMPARISON WITH THE COMMONALITIES OF PBL APPROACH. THE SURVEY'S DATA ANALYZED IN SPSS SHOWED THAT THE PARTICIPANTS LEANED MORE ON THE SIDE OF CONSTRUCTIVISM IN THEIR BELIEF OF TEACHING AND LEARNING; HOWEVER, THE ANALYSIS OF INTERVIEWS IN NVIVO REVEALED DIFFERENT DEGREES THE TEACHERS STICKED TO BEHAVIORISM OR CONSTRUCTIVISM AS REGARDS TEACHER'S ROLE, LEARNING STYLE, AND ASSESSMENT IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THEIR TEACHING. 2020 UNIVERSITY OF MINHO.

INNOVATION IN METHODS AND FORMS OF TEACHING AND LEARNING, AND IN CONDUCTING EXAMINATION AND EVALUATION ARE IN THE DIRECTION OF DEVELOPING AND PROMOTING STUDENTS CREATIVITY. HOWEVER, NOT ALL LECTURERS AND STUDENTS DEEPLY UNDERSTAND AND EFFECTIVELY USE THIS STRATEGY IN THEIR TEACHING AND LEARNING. TO DEVELOP ACTIVE AND CREATIVE TEACHING AND LEARNING STRATEGIES, BOTH LECTURERS AND STUDENTS MUST DEVELOP THEIR OWN STRATEGIES, THAT IS, TEACHERS AND LEARNERS MUST UNDERSTAND THE NATURE, OBJECTIVES, MOTIVATION, TEACHING, AND LEARNING METHODS. THIS STUDY USES THE SURVEY METHOD TO DESCRIBE THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE LECTURERS AND STUDENT. RESPONDENTS INCLUDED 1.000 STUDENTS AND 130 LECTURERS AT TEN MAJOR UNIVERSITIES IN THE HO CHI MINH CITY OF VIETNAM.

THE EIGHT UNIVERSITIES IN NEW ZEALAND HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED AS SOME OF THE TOP ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS IN THE WORLD. HOWEVER, THE RANKINGS FROM DIFFERENT INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS ARE DECLINING AND ARE HARDLY LIKELY TO RISE. GOVERNMENT POLICIES IN FUNDING ALLOCATION ARE BEING BLAMED FOR THE UNIVERSITIES' REGRESS AS THEY OPERATE WITH AN INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF FUNDS. THIS STUDY USES THE MALMQUIST PRODUCTIVITY INDEX MODEL TO EXAMINE THE TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY, TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, AND PRODUCTIVITY PERFORMANCE OF THE EIGHT UNIVERSITIES. THIS MODEL USES A VARIETY OF INPUTS (NUMBER OF ACADEMIC AND NON-ACADEMIC STAFF AND TOTAL ENROLMENT) AND OUTPUTS (NUMBER OF DEGREE AND POSTGRADUATE GRADUATES, TOTAL GRADUATES, AND TOTAL OPERATING REVENUE FROM THE EQUIVALENT FULL-TIME STUDENT (EFTS) FUNDING SYSTEM AND THE PERFORMANCE-BASED RESEARCH FUND (PBRF), ETC.) OBTAINED FOR THE PERIOD 2013-2018. THE OVERALL RESULTS SHOW THAT THE AVERAGE CATCH-UP AND FRONTIER-SHIFT EFFICIENCIES OF THE UNIVERSITIES ARE ROUGHLY IN A "NO-CHANGE" SCENARIO, MEANING THAT THE UNIVERSITIES DID NOT MAKE ANY PROGRESS OVER THESE YEARS. THE MALMQUIST PRODUCTIVITY INDEX (MPI) ALSO SHOWS A STABLE RESULT, WITH AVERAGE FINAL VALUES SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN 1, WHEREIN ONLY FIVE UNIVERSITIES REACHED AN ACTUAL PRODUCTIVITY SCORE OF 1. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE UNIVERSITIES IMPROVE THEIR INTERNAL FACTORS, INCLUDING PERSONNEL, EQUIPMENT, FACILITIES, AND STUDENT SERVICES, WHILE TAKING ACCOUNTS OF EXTERNAL ASPECTS, SUCH AS RAPID GROWTH IN TECHNOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTS AND INNOVATIONS, TO ACHIEVE SUSTAINABLE ORGANIZATIONAL PROGRESS AND IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY. THE RE-ASSESSMENT OF GOVERNMENT POLICIES FOR FUNDING ALLOCATION IS ALSO SUGGESTED. THIS RESEARCH PAPER OFFERS INSIGHTS INTO THE NEW ZEALAND UNIVERSITIES' PRODUCTIVITY PERFORMANCES FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS. THIS COULD BE USED AS A REFERENCE FOR OTHER PURPOSES. 2020 BY THE AUTHORS. | |

THE DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS IS CONSIDERED AN URGENT ISSUE, A PREREQUISITE TO CONTRIBUTE POSITIVELY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING IN THE COUNTRY. HOWEVER, THE FIRST PERIOD OF INTEGRATION SHOWS THAT TEACHERS HAVE MANY LIMITATIONS IN PRACTICAL SKILLS, SOFT SKILLS, AND FOREIGN LANGUAGES WHEN WORKING IN A MODERN ENVIRONMENT. THESE LIMITATIONS ARE DUE TO MANY FACTORS; ONE OF THE BASIC FACTORS IS THAT THE TRAINING PROGRAMS AT TEACHER TRAINING FACILITIES ARE MAINLY FOCUSED ON KNOWLEDGE TOWARDS APPROACHING CONTENT. THEREFORE, THE DEVELOPMENT OF TRAINING PROGRAMS IN GENERAL AND TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS IN PARTICULAR IN THE DIRECTION OF DEVELOPING NECESSARY SKILLS THAT SOCIETY REQUIRES LEARNERS TO HAVE, IN ORDER TO WORK AND DEVELOP THEIR QUALITIES AFTER GRADUATION, TO MEET THE INTEGRATION NEEDS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0 IS AN IMPORTANT TREND IN THE WORLD AND ESPECIALLY FOR VIETNAM IN THE CURRENT PERIOD. CDIO STANDS FOR WORDS: CONCEIVE, DESIGN, IMPLEMENT AND OPERATE. IT IS A SOLUTION TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF TRAINING TO MEET SOCIAL REQUIREMENTS, ON THE BASIS OF DETERMINING THE OUTCOME STANDARDS, DEVELOPING PROGRAMS AND TRAINING PLANS; IT IS ALSO THE IDEA OF UNIVERSITIES, TECHNICAL INSTITUTES OF THE UNITED STATES AND SWEDEN IN THE EARLY 90S OF THE LAST CENTURY WITH THE INTENTION OF TRAINING STUDENTS AFTER GRADUATION WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS SUCH AS: COMMUNICATION SKILLS, PERSONAL SKILLS AND IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO THE LABOR MARKET, MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE BUSINESS. IN THIS ARTICLE, WE FOCUS ON THE SOLUTION TO DEVELOP TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS UNDER THE CDIO APPROACH TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0 IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN VIETNAM. 2020.

MOREOVER, UNIVERSITIES CHOICE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS IS ALSO INCREASING WITH SUPPORT FROM THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION OF TAIWAN. THEREFORE, IT IS CRUCIAL TO UNDERSTAND THE FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE STUDENT CHOICE. THIS STUDY INVESTIGATES THE EFFECTS OF TAIWANS HIGHER EDUCATION SERVICE QUALITY ON INTERNATIONAL STUDENT SATISFACTION AND INSTITUTIONAL REPUTATION. WE COLLECTED DATA FROM 197 INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS STUDYING AT 33 NATIONAL AND PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES IN TAIWAN TO TEST THE STUDYS PROPOSED MODEL. THIS STUDY USES A QUANTITATIVE APPROACH TO EXAMINE THE PROPOSED HYPOTHESES, AND CAUSAL RESEARCH DESIGN IS USED TO ELUCIDATE THE CAUSE-AND-EFFECT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CONSTRUCTS. THE NON-ACADEMIC ASPECT OF SERVICE QUALITY IS THE MOST INFLUENTIAL VARIABLE IN STUDENT SATISFACTION, AND STUDENT SATISFACTION STRONGLY AFFECTS INSTITUTIONAL REPUTATION. STUDENT SATISFACTION MEDIATES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ACADEMIC AND NON-ACADEMIC ASPECTS OF SERVICE QUALITY AND INSTITUTIONAL REPUTATION. THIS STUDYS FINDINGS COULD HELP HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN TAIWAN ASSESS AND IMPROVE THEIR SERVICE QUALITY, WHICH WOULD HELP THEM ATTRACT INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS. THE AUTHOR(S) 2020. | |

RESEARCH DATA WAS COLLECTED WITH AN ONLINE QUESTIONNAIRE FROM MORE THAN 600 TEACHERS IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS, SECONDARY SCHOOLS, HIGH SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, AND UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM IN 2020. BASED ON A HOLISTIC LITERATURE REVIEW, WE DEVELOP A MODEL OF TWO EXTRINSIC FACTORS (GLOBAL NEEDS AND SCHOOL-INFRASTRUCTURE), AND TWO INTRINSIC FACTORS (TEACHERS TECHNOLOGICAL LITERACY AND THEIR BELIEFS), WHICH ARE CORRELATED WITH THE TEACHERS TECHNOLOGICAL ADOPTION. WE MEASURE THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE BY ASKING THE TEACHERS ABILITY AND THEIR EFFICACY TO IMPLEMENT TECHNOLOGY IN TEACHING ACCORDING TO A LIKERT SCALE. WITH THE SUPPORT OF SPSS_22 AND STATA_2015, WE FIND THAT OVER 70% OF CHANGES IN TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION ARE EXPLAINED BY THE CHANGES IN FOUR INDEPENDENT VARIABLES AND THREE CONTROL VARIABLES RELATED TO AGE, GENDER, AND TEACHINGLEVEL OF THE TEACHERS. FURTHERMORE, THESE INDEPENDENT VARIABLES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY AND POSITIVELY ASSOCIATED WITH TWO DEPENDENT VARIABLES. HOWEVER, A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION ABILITY CAN BE SEEN AMONG TEACHERS GENDER, AGE, AND SCHOOL-LEVEL. SPECIFICALLY, MALE TEACHERS SEEM TO ADOPT TECHNOLOGY AT SCHOOLS THAN FEMALE TEACHERS BETTER, AND UNIVERSITY TEACHERS HAVE THE LOWEST LEVEL OF TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION COMPARED TO OTHER SCHOOL-LEVEL TEACHERS.

MOST CURRENT DISPLACEMENT ESTIMATION METHODS REQUIRE A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURES AND DEVICES SUCH AS UWB, WIFI ACCESS POINTS, CAMERAS. HENCE, ESTIMATION METHODS THAT ULTILIZE INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT (IMU) AND INTEGRATE ACCELERATION TO GET DIPLACEMENT ARE EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVES SINCE THE THREE-AXIS ACCELEROMETER EMBEDDED IN IMU USUALLY LOW COST, EASY TO ADJUST AND LOW NOISE. THE ADVANTAGE OF THIS APPROACH IS THAT THE IMU-BASED DEVICE IS COMPACT, EASY TO INSTALL AND PUT ON USER'S BODY. HOWEVER, THESE METHODS EXPOSE SOME WEAKNESSES WHEN USED IN LARGE-SCALE INDOOR STRUCTURES SUCH AS MULTI-STOREY BUILDINGS DUE TO THE NEED TO COMPENSATE AZIMUTH ESTIMATION WHICH IS DRIFTED OVERTIME AND IS EMPLOYED FOR CALCULATING DISPLACEMENT WITH REFER TO EARTH FRAME AS A BASE STATION. THIS ARTICLE PROPOSES A LOW-COST WIRELESS DISPLACEMENT ESTIMATION SYSTEM DEVELOPED WITH IMU. THE SYSTEM EMPLOYS A KALMAN-FILTER TYPE IN INDIRECT FORM FOR ORIENTATION ESTIMATES AND MEDIAN-FILTER ALGORITHM FOR CLASSIFICATION OF MOTION MODES. IN ORDER TO VERIFY THE PROPOSED SYSTEM IN TERMS OF ACCURACY AND FEASIBILITY, A DEVICE WAS DESIGNED IN A WEARABLE FORM AND TETSTED ON A MULTI-STOREY BUILDING IN UNIVERSITY. THE WEARABLE DEVICE ULTILIZED IMU MODEL MPU9250 AND RESULTS RECORED WIRELESSLY VIA XBEE DEVICES IN ORDER TO TEST THE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE IN SUCH SENARIOS AS CLIMBING/DESCENDING STAIRCASES ONLY, CLIMBING/DESCENDING STAIRCASES THROUGH ONE FLOOR COMBINED WITH WALKING. EXPERIMENTS ARE REPEATED FOR ROOT MEAN SQUARE ERROR (RMSE) COMPUTATION BASED ON THE GROUND-TRUTH. THE PROPOSED SYSTEM PERFORMANCE IS EVALUATED ACCORDINGLY TO RMSE.

STRENGTHENING ENGLISH READING ABILITY IS NECESSARY FOR STUDENTS TO PROMOTE INDIVIDUAL ABILITY IN UNIVERSITY EDUCATION. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS AFFECTING STUDENTS' ENGLISH READING PROFICIENCY IS THEIR USE OF READING STRATEGIES. THIS STUDY IS TAKEN TO EXPLORE HOW VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS APPLIED SELF-STRATEGIC REGULATION (S2R) STRATEGIES IN THEIR ENGLISH READING COMPREHENSION. 963 STUDENTS FROM 6 UNIVERSITIES IN THE NORTH OF VIETNAM PARTICIPATED IN THE STUDY. THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY THROUGH THE QUESTIONNAIRE AND SEMI-SRUCTURED INTREVIEWS SHOW THAT THE PARTICIPANTS APPLIED S2R STRATEGIES AT A MEDIUM LEVEL OF FREQUENCY (M=2.9) WHEN THEY READ GENERAL ENGLISH MATERIALS. COGNITIVE STRATEGIES WERE REPORTED BEING USED THE MOST FREQUENTLY, FOLLOWED BY AFFECTIVE STRATEGIES, SOCIO-CULTURAL INTERACTIVE STRATEGIES, AND META-STRATEGIES.

IN CONTRAST TO PREVIOUS STUDIES, THE RESULTS FROM ESTIMATIONS OF FIXED EFFECT, RANDOM EFFECT, AND SGMM SURPRISINGLY SHOW THAT THE SHADOW ECONOMY REDUCES INCOME INEQUALITY IN THE RESEARCH REGION. SPECIFICALLY, THE SHADOW ECONOMY SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES THE INCOME SHARE HELD BY LOWEST QUINTILE AND DECREASES THE INCOME SHARE HELD BY HIGHEST QUINTILE. THE RESULT CAN BE EXPLAINED BY COMBINING THE THREE SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT ON INFORMAL ECONOMY INCLUDING DUALISM, LEGALISM, AND VOLUTARISM. THE FINDING CONTRIBUTES TO THE IDEA THAT THE SHADOW ECONOMY IS NOT ALWAYS BAD, ESPECIALLY TO THE POOR, OUT OF ITS NEGATIVE EFFECTS. THEREFORE, POLICIES TO DEAL WITH THE SHADOW ECONOMY SHOULD TAKE THE POOR INTO CLOSE CONSIDERATION WITH OTHER SIMULTANEOUS SOLUTIONS FOR POVERTY ERADICATION AND INCOME INEQUALITY REDUCTION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. 2019, 2019 INFORMA UK LIMITED, TRADING AS TAYLOR & FRANCIS GROUP. | |

Tiếng Anh | SAITAMA MEDICAL UNIVERSITYSAITAMA MEDICAL UNIVERSITY | HANOI; MOTORCYCLES; PICKING UP BEHAVIOUR; PRIMARY SCHOOL; TRAFFIC CONGESTION; TRAFFIC SAFETY; | INTRODUCTION: ONE OF THE SIGNIFICANT CHARACTERISTICS OF SCHOOLS IN VIETNAM IS THAT ALMOST ALL PARENTS SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND/OR PICK UP THEIR CHILDREN FROM SCHOOL USING PRIVATE VEHICLES (MOTORCYCLES). THE PARENTS USUALLY STOP AND PARK THEIR VEHICLE ON STREETS OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL GATES, WHICH CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS CONGESTION AND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS. METHODS: THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO FIND OUT FACTORS AFFECTING THE PICKING UP OF PUPILS AT PRIMARY SCHOOL BY EVALUATING THE TYPICAL PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN HANOI CITY. A BINARY LOGISTIC REGRESSION MODEL WAS USED TO DETERMINE FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE THE DECISION OF PICKING UP PUPILS AND THE WAITING DURATION OF PARENTS. THE BEHAVIOR OF MOTORCYCLISTS DURING THE PROCESS OF PICKING UP PUPILS AT THE PRIMARY SCHOOL GATE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND ANALYZED IN DETAIL BY THE KINOVEA SOFTWARE. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: THE STUDY SHOWED THAT, ON THE WAY BACK HOME, ALMOST ALL PARENTS USE MOTORBIKES (89.15%) TO PICK UP THEIR CHILDREN. DURING THEIR WAITING TIME (8.48 MINUTES IN AVERAGE), THEY MADE A LOT OF ILLEGAL PARKING ACTIONS ON THE STREET THERE BY, CAUSING A LOT OF COGNITIVE ERRORS AND CRASH POINTS SURROUNDING IN FRONT OF THE PRIMARY SCHOOL ENTRANCE GATE. RISKY PICKING-UP BEHAVIORS WERE SIGNIFICANTLY OBSERVED, I.E. PICKING-UP ON OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SCHOOL, MAKING A U-TURN, BACKING-UP DANGEROUSLY, PARKING ON THE MIDDLE OF STREET, AND PARKING ON THE STREET NEXT TO SIDEWALK). CONCLUSION: BASED ON THE ANALYZED RESULTS, SEVERAL TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT MEASURES HAVE BEEN SUGGESTED TO ENHANCE TRAFFIC SAFETY AND REDUCE TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN FRONT OF SCHOOL GATES. IN ADDITION, THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY WILL PROVIDE A USEFUL REFERENCE FOR POLICYMAKERS AND AUTHORITIES. 2020 HIEP ET AL. | |

IT APPLIES EQUALLY TO STUDENTS OF ALL AGES, FROM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TO COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY STUDENTS. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT LEARNING ONLINE IS AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO DEFUSE FEELINGS OF ACADEMIC ANXIETY. ELIMINATION OF ANXIETY IS CLEARLY VISIBLE REGARDLESS OF AGE, GENDER, OR PRIOR ONLINE LEARNING EXPERIENCE. THE STUDY AIMS TO IDENTIFY ACADEMIC ANXIETY AS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REASONS FOR MOVING TO ONLINE LEARNING OR BLENDED LEARNING IN SECONDARY SCHOOL. THE STUDY INVESTIGATED ACADEMIC ANXIETY AMONG SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN VIETNAM. AFTER SURVEYING 677 STUDENTS IN CLASSROOM LEARNING, THE RESULTS SHOWED THAT 13.7% OF SECONDARY STUDENTS SUFFERED FROM FREQUENT ANXIETY, AND 3.0% OF THEM SUFFERED FROM VERY FREQUENT ANXIETY. LOWER ANXIETY WAS OBSERVED AMONG STUDENTS ACTIVELY PARTICIPATED IN-CLASS ACTIVITIES, AND STUDENTS WITH EXCELLENT ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE. THESE FACTORS CAN BE OPTIMALLY ENHANCED THROUGH BLENDED AND ONLINE LEARNING. THERE WERE NO DIFFERENCES IN ACADEMIC ANXIETY AMONG MALE AND FEMALE STUDENTS, URBAN AND RURAL STUDENTS. THERE WAS A MODERATE CORRELATION BETWEEN A STUDENT'S ANXIETY LEVEL AND PRESSURE OF THE SCHOOL, PARENTAL EXPECTATIONS, STUDENTS' MOTIVATION FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE, AND ESPECIALLY, AMONG STUDENTS WHO HAVE THE MELANCHOLIC TEMPERAMENT. AND THE INFLUENCE OF THESE NEGATIVE FACTORS CAN ALSO BE OPTIMALLY REDUCED WITH THE HELP OF ONLINE LEARNING. REGRESSION MODEL COULD PROVIDE USEFUL SUGGESTIONS FOR PARENTS, TEACHERS AND STUDENTS IN REDUCING ACADEMIC ANXIETY FOR STUDENTS, INCLUDING THE USE OF FULL OR BLENDED ONLINE LEARNING. 2020 LIFESCIENCE GLOBAL | |

Tiếng Anh | GUIZHOU NORMAL UNIVERSITYGUIZHOU NORMAL UNIVERSITY FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH FUNDS FOR THE CENTRAL UNIVERSITIESFUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH FUNDS FOR THE CENTRAL UNIVERSITIES | CLASSROOM PEER STATUS; FAMILY SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS; PARENTAL EDUCATIONAL INVOLVEMENT; PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS; PSYCHOLOGICAL SUZHI; | CLASSROOM PEER STATUS (BEING ACCEPTED, ADMIRED, AND LIKED BY FRIENDS IN THE CLASSROOM) IS A KEY FACTOR IN CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT. THE PRESENT STUDY AIMS TO TEST THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUZHI (AN INDIGENOUS CONCEPT OF CHINA AND A KIND OF POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL QUALITY) IN THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PARENTAL EDUCATIONAL INVOLVEMENT (PEI) AND PRIMARY STUDENTS CLASSROOM PEER STATUS, AND WHETHER THIS MEDIATING PROCESS IS MODERATED BY FAMILY SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS (SES). THE STUDY WAS DESIGNED ACCORDING TO A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY MODEL, WITH 462 CHINESE PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS (MEAN AGE = 10.76 YEARS, SD = 1.1) COMPLETING QUESTIONNAIRES REGARDING DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION, PSYCHOLOGICAL SUZHI, AND CLASSROOM PEER STATUS. FAMILY SES AND PEI QUESTIONNAIRES WERE COMPLETED BY THE STUDENTS PARENTS. MAIN FINDINGS INCLUDE: (A) PEI HAS A POSITIVE DIRECT INFLUENCE ON PRIMARY STUDENTS CLASSROOM PEER STATUS; (B) STUDENTS PSYCHOLOGICAL SUZHI HAS A MEDIATING ROLE IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PEI AND STUDENTS CLASSROOM PEER STATUS; (C) THE MODERATING ROLE OF FAMILY SES ON THE PATHWAY FROM PEI TO CLASSROOM PEER STATUS VIA PSYCHOLOGICAL SUZHI WAS NOT SIGNIFICANT; AND (D) THE DIRECT INFLUENCE OF PEI ON PRIMARY STUDENTS CLASSROOM PEER STATUS IS MODERATED BY FAMILY SES. THE FINDINGS FROM THIS STUDY SHOW THAT, REGARDLESS OF FAMILY SES LEVEL, PEI INCREASES A CHILD'S POSITIVE INTERNAL PSYCHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND HELPS IMPROVE THE CHILD'S CLASSROOM PEER STATUS. IN CONTRAST, THE DIRECT INFLUENCE OF PEI ON PRIMARY STUDENTS CLASSROOM PEER STATUS WAS NOT SIGNIFICANT IN FAMILIES WITH LOW SES. IN SUCH FAMILIES, THE QUALITY OF PEI MAY BE REDUCED DUE TO THE INFLUENCE OF PARENTS EDUCATION LEVELS AND FAMILY ECONOMIC STRESS. THE RESULTS OF THIS STUDY ARE MEANINGFUL FOR DEVELOPING INTERVENTIONS IN THE FAMILY CONTEXT. 2020 ELSEVIER LTD | |
| IMPACT OF TOEIC LISTENING AND READING AS A UNIVERSITY EXIT TEST IN VIETNAM | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF WELLINGTONVICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF WELLINGTON | RECENTLY, MANY UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM HAVE ADOPTED THE TOEIC (TEST OF ENGLISH FOR INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATION) LISTENING AND READING TEST AS A LANGUAGE EXIT TEST FOR NON-ENGLISH MAJOR STUDENTS. THIS STUDY AIMED AT EXAMINING THE PERCEIVED IMPACT OF THE TOEIC LISTENING AND READING TEST ON ENGLISH TEACHING AND THE MECHANISM BY WHICH THIS TEST IMPACT OCCURRED. THE DATA WERE COLLECTED BY MEANS OF A QUESTIONNAIRE AT THREE LARGE UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM. THE FINDINGS SUGGESTED THAT, GENERALLY, THE USE OF THE TOEIC LISTENING AND READING TEST AS THE SOLE EXIT REQUIREMENT COULD HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT A NARROWING OF THE TEACHING CONTENT AND A SHIFT AWAY FROM COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING, BUT ITS OVERALL INFLUENCE WAS, ON AVERAGE, NOT PERCEIVED AS BEING STRONG. THE FORM AND INTENSITY OF THE PERCEIVED TEST IMPACT WERE RELATED TO A NUMBER OF FACTORS, SOME OF WHICH SEEMED TO HAVE OPERATED REMARKABLY DIFFERENTLY FROM THE WAY THEY DO IN OTHER RESEARCH CONTEXTS. 2020, 2020 TAYLOR & FRANCIS. | ||

IN THIS STUDY, WE ESTIMATE THE EFFECT OF SIBSHIP SIZE ON VARIOUS OUTCOMES OF CHILDREN INCLUDING DISABILITY, EDUCATION AND THE LABOR SUPPLY OF CHILDREN IN VIETNAM. WE DO NOT FIND SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS OF SIBSHIP SIZE ON DISABILITY AND WORKING STATUS OF CHILDREN. HOWEVER, WE FIND THAT HAVING AN ADDITIONAL SIBLING INCREASES THE RISK OF DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOL. MORE SPECIFICALLY, HAVING AN ADDITIONAL SIBLING REDUCES THE PROBABILITY OF SCHOOLING OF THE FIRST-BORN CHILDREN BY 1.6 PERCENTAGE POINTS IN FAMILIES WITH AT LEAST A CHILD. THIS EFFECT IS INCREASING TO AROUND 3.0 PERCENTAGE POINTS IN FAMILIES WITH AT LEAST THREE CHILDREN. THE EFFECT OF SIBSHIP SIZE ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLETED GRADES IS ALSO HIGHER AND MORE SIGNIFICANT IN LARGE FAMILIES. 2019, SPRINGER NATURE B.V. | |

Tiếng Anh | WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION | CULTURAL DIVERSITY; EDUCATION; GLOBAL HEALTH; PUBLIC HEALTH; | BACKGROUND: OWING TO GLOBALIZATION, THERE IS A NEED FOR ENHANCED GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES AMONG NURSING STUDENTS. IN THIS CONTEXT, GLOBAL SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAMS ARE IMPORTANT OPPORTUNITIES FOR NURSING STUDENTS. OBJECTIVES: TO EXPLORE THE EFFECT OF A SHORT-TERM SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAM IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY ON THE GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES OF STUDENTS ATTENDING A SOUTH KOREAN NURSING COLLEGE. DESIGN: A MIXED METHODS DESIGN. SETTING: THE GLOBAL NURSING INTERNSHIP IS A TWO-WEEK PRE-EXPERIENCE, EIGHT-DAY ON-SITE, AND ONE-WEEK POST-EXPERIENCE PROGRAM. PARTICIPANTS: THE ON-SITE ACTIVITIES INVOLVED 15 NURSING STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN GLOBAL HEALTH ACTIVITIES IN A RURAL VIETNAMESE COMMUNITY. METHODS: A SELF-REPORTED QUESTIONNAIRE WAS USED TO ASSESS CHANGES IN GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES IN SIX DOMAINS, MEASURED ON A FOUR-POINT LIKERT SCALE. STUDENT SATISFACTION WITH EACH ACTIVITY WAS MEASURED ON A FIVE-POINT LIKERT SCALE. AFTER COMPLETING THE PROGRAM, THE PARTICIPANTS WROTE A SELF-REFLECTION ESSAY. THE WILCOXON SIGNED RANK TEST WAS USED TO ANALYZE GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES, AND CONTENT ANALYSIS WAS USED TO ANALYZE PARTICIPANTS' SELF-REFLECTIONS. RESULTS: REGARDING GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES, THE OVERALL MEAN SCORE SHOWED A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE AT THE POST-PROGRAM EVALUATION (Z = 3.41, P = .001). A PRE-POST-PROGRAM COMPARISON SHOWED THAT THE DOMAIN OF HEALTH CARE IN LOW-RESOURCE SETTINGS DISPLAYED THE GREATEST INCREASE IN SCORES. THE MEAN OVERALL SATISFACTION WITH THE PROGRAM WAS HIGH (MEAN = 4.31, STANDARD DEVIATION = 0.17). IN THE STUDENTS' VIEW, AS EXPRESSED IN THEIR ESSAYS, THEIR GLOBAL HEALTH KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE HAD IMPROVED. CONCLUSIONS: THE PROGRAM WAS USEFUL IN PROMOTING GLOBAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES, EMPATHY, AND CONFIDENCE AND SHOULD BE EMBEDDED AMONG THE ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS OF NURSING CURRICULA. SUGGESTIONS ARE PROVIDED TO DEVELOP AN ENHANCED PRE-EXPERIENCE PROGRAM THAT COULD HELP STUDENTS PREPARE BETTER FOR ON-SITE ACTIVITIES. AS CULTURAL COMPETENCY IS CRUCIAL FOR NURSES, NURSING EDUCATORS SHOULD CONSIDER INTEGRATING SIMILAR GLOBAL SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAMS INTO THEIR EXISTING NURSING CURRICULA. 2019 ELSEVIER LTD | |
| DOES TUITION FEE POLICY REFORM ENCOURAGE POOR CHILDREN’S SCHOOL ENROLMENT? EVIDENCE FROM VIETNAM | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION | DIFFERENCE-IN-DIFFERENCES; EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT; SCHOOL ENROLMENT; TUITION FEE EXEMPTIONS; TUITION FEE POLICY; | TUITION FEE EXEMPTIONS AND EDUCATIONAL SUBSIDIES ARE SIGNIFICANT TOOLS FOR IMPROVING CHILDREN'S EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. IN 2010 THE VIETNAMESE GOVERNMENT CHANGED PUBLIC POLICY IN AN ATTEMPT TO INCREASE SCHOOL ENROLMENT RATES AND REDUCE THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF EDUCATION ON POOR HOUSEHOLDS. USING A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DIFFERENCE-IN-DIFFERENCES (DID) APPROACH, WITH PROPENSITY SCORE MATCHING (PSM), THIS PAPER EXAMINES THE EFFECTS OF THE 2010 POLICY REFORM ON SCHOOL ENROLMENT RATES AT PRIMARY, SECONDARY AND HIGH SCHOOL LEVELS. THE THREE LEVELS OF EDUCATION IN VIETNAM WERE SEPARATELY ASSESSED BY THIS STUDY. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE POLICY IMPROVED ENROLMENT RATES AT BOTH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY LEVELS (COMPULSORY IN VIETNAM), WHILE HIGH SCHOOL ENROLMENT RATES REMAINED UNAFFECTED. ONE OF THE LARGEST DIFFERENCES WAS IDENTIFIED WITHIN THE ETHNIC MINORITY GROUPS AND REGIONAL BORDER AREAS. MINORITY GROUPS PREFERRED TO ENROL MORE THAN THEIR ETHNIC MAJORITY COUNTERPARTS AT SECONDARY AND HIGH SCHOOL LEVELS, BUT THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT GAP BETWEEN GROUPS, WHERE CHILDREN FROM RURAL AREAS REMAINED LESS LIKELY TO ENROL OVERALL, THAN CHILDREN FROM URBAN AREAS. THE CAUSE FOR THIS MAY BE THAT THE TUITION FEES AND SUBSIDIES ONLY COVER A SMALL PART OF THE TOTAL COST OF EDUCATION EXPENDITURE, OR IT MAY BE PART OF A LARGER UNSEEN OPPORTUNITY COST EQUATION THAT OLDER CHILDREN FACE WHEN THEY COME FROM POOR BACKGROUNDS AND HAVE THE CHANCE TO JOIN THE LABOUR FORCE. 2020 ECONOMIC SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA, QUEENSLAND | |
| MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY AND HELP-SEEKING PREFERENCES IN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION | ADOLESCENT; HELP-SEEKING PREFERENCE; HIGH SCHOOL; MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY; VIETNAM; | A HIGH PREVALENCE OF MENTAL DISORDERS IN ADOLESCENTS HAS BEEN REPORTED WORLDWIDE, BUT LITTLE IS KNOWN ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY IN THIS POPULATION, PARTICULARLY IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. THE GOAL OF THIS STUDY WAS TO EVALUATE MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY LEVEL AND HELP-SEEKING PREFERENCES IN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM. THESE TWO VARIABLES WERE ALSO COMPARED BETWEEN STUDENTS WHO HAD STRESS, ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION WITH STUDENTS WHO DID NOT. A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY WAS CONDUCTED WITH 1094 STUDENTS ACROSS 27 CLASSES AT THREE HIGH SCHOOLS. STUDENTS COMPLETED A SELF-REPORT QUESTIONNAIRE THAT INCLUDED VALIDATED SCALES SUCH AS THE DEPRESSION ANXIETY STRESS SCALE (DASS-21), THE MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY SCALE (MHLS) AND THE GENERAL HELP-SEEKING QUESTIONNAIRE. BASED ON THE DASS-21, THE PREVALENCE OF STUDENTS REPORTING SYMPTOMS OF STRESS, DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY WAS 36.1%, 39.8% AND 59.8%, RESPECTIVELY. THE MEAN MHLS SCORE WAS 104.12 (SD = 10.09) AND WAS SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER IN STUDENTS WHO HAD SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION. THE MOST COMMON HELP-SEEKING PREFERENCES FOR MENTAL ILLNESS WERE FRIENDS, CLASSMATES AND RELATIVES OR FAMILY MEMBERS. HELP-SEEKING PREFERENCES WERE ALMOST IDENTICAL AMONG STUDENTS WITH STRESS, ANXIETY OR DEPRESSION. WHILE VIETNAMESE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS HAD HIGH LEVELS OF SYMPTOMS OF STRESS, DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY AND MODERATE LEVELS OF MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY, NON-PROFESSIONALS WERE PREFERRED AS THEIR FIRST HELP-SEEKING CHOICE. OUR FINDINGS REVEALED THE NEED FOR ROUTINE SCHOOL-BASED MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING AND REFERRAL ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN VIETNAM. 2020, SPRINGER SCIENCE+BUSINESS MEDIA, LLC, PART OF SPRINGER NATURE. | |

THE MAIN AIMS OF THE RESEARCH REPORTED IN THIS ARTICLE WERE TO INVESTIGATE THE LIVED EXPERIENCE OF GENDER EQUALITY IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN VIETNAM THROUGH AN EXAMINATION OF THE VIEWS OF TEACHERS AND SCHOOL LEADERS AND TO INVESTIGATE THE CHALLENGES FACING SCHOOL LEADERS IN IMPLEMENTING GOVERNMENT POLICY. A QUALITATIVE RESEARCH DESIGN WAS EMPLOYED THAT CONSISTED OF SEMI-STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS WITH TEACHERS, DEPUTY HEADTEACHERS AND HEADTEACHERS IN FOUR PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN HO CHI MINH CITY. THE FINDINGS FROM THE STUDY REVEALED THAT GENDER EQUALITY REMAINS A PROBLEMATIC ISSUE IN THE PRIMARY SCHOOLS WHERE THIS STUDY TOOK PLACE. IN PARTICULAR, TEACHERS THEMSELVES SHOWED GENDER BIAS TOWARDS THE LEARNING ABILITY OF BOYS AND GIRLS IN DIFFERENT SUBJECTS AND IT WAS REPORTED THAT GIRLS WHO HAD EARLY PUBERTY STRUGGLED WITH THEIR LEARNING.

HENCE, THIS STUDY AIMED TO DESCRIBE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF NURSING DOCTORAL PROGRAMS IN EAST AND SOUTH EAST ASIAN (ESEA) COUNTRIES AND REGIONS FROM THE VIEWS OF DOCTORAL PROGRAM COORDINATORS, AND TO EXPLORE THE STUDENTS' EXPERIENCES OF AND SATISFACTION WITH THEIR DOCTORAL NURSING PROGRAM. METHODS: A CROSS-SECTIONAL SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED USING TWO SELF-DESIGNED QUESTIONNAIRES, ONE FOCUSING ON PHD PROGRAM COORDINATORS AND THE OTHER ON DOCTORAL STUDENTS. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NURSING DOCTORAL PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON PROGRAM CHARACTERISTICS, FACULTY CHARACTERISTICS, CAREER PATHWAYS FOR GRADUATES, AND CHALLENGES FOR NURSING DOCTORAL EDUCATION. DOCTORAL STUDENTS' ASSESSMENT OF STUDY EXPERIENCES INCLUDED QUALITY OF SUPERVISION, DOCTORAL TRAINING PROGRAMS, INTELLECTUAL/CULTURAL CLIMATE OF INSTITUTIONS, GENERAL FACILITIES/SUPPORT, AND THE OVERALL STUDY EXPERIENCE AND SATISFACTION. RESULTS: IN THE PHD COORDINATORS SURVEY, 46 INSTITUTIONS ACROSS NINE ESEA COUNTRIES AND REGIONS PARTICIPATED. MORE THAN HALF OF NURSING DEPARTMENTS HAD ACADEMIC MEMBERS FROM OTHER HEALTH SCIENCE DISCIPLINES TO SUPERVISE DOCTORAL NURSING STUDENTS. THE MAJORITY OF GRADUATES WERE HOLDING ACADEMIC OR RESEARCH POSITIONS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS. FACULTY SHORTAGES, DELAYS IN THE COMPLETION OF THE PROGRAM AND INADEQUATE FINANCIAL SUPPORT WERE COMMONLY REPORTED CHALLENGES FOR DOCTORAL NURSING EDUCATION. IN THE STUDENTS' SURVEY, 193 DOCTORAL STUDENTS PARTICIPATED. 88.3% OF THE STUDENTS WERE SATISFIED WITH THE SUPERVISION THEY RECEIVED FROM THEIR SUPERVISORS; HOWEVER, 79% REPORTED THAT THEIR SUPERVISORS 'PUSHED' THEM TO PUBLISH RESEARCH PAPERS. FOR DOCTORAL TRAINING PROGRAMS, 75.5% WERE SATISFIED WITH THEIR CURRICULUM; BUT AROUND HALF REPORTED THAT THE TEACHING TRAINING COMPONENTS (55.9%) AND MOBILITY OPPORTUNITIES (54.2%) WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THEIR PROGRAMS. FOR OVERALL SATISFACTION WITH THE INTELLECTUAL AND CULTURAL CLIMATE, THE PERCENTAGES WERE 76.1 AND 68.1%, RESPECTIVELY. ONLY 66.7% OF THE STUDENTS FELT SATISFIED WITH THE FACILITIES PROVIDED BY THEIR UNIVERSITIES AND NURSING INSTITUTIONS. CONCLUSION: DOCTORAL NURSING PROGRAMS IN MOST OF THE ESEA COUNTRIES VALUE THE IMPORTANCE OF BOTH RESEARCH AND COURSEWORK. DOCTORAL NURSING STUDENTS GENERALLY HOLD POSITIVE EXPERIENCES OF THEIR STUDY. HOWEVER, INCORPORATING MORE TEACHING TRAINING COMPONENTS, PROVIDING MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY, AND MAKING MORE EFFORT TO IMPROVE RESEARCH-RELATED FACILITIES MAY FURTHER ENHANCE THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE. THERE IS ALSO A NEED TO HAVE INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS FOR QUALITY INDICATORS OF DOCTORAL PROGRAMS TO MAINTAIN QUALITY AND FIND SOLUTIONS TO GLOBAL CHALLENGES IN NURSING DOCTORAL EDUCATION. 2020 THE AUTHOR(S). | |

THE SURVEY MEASURED THREE VARIABLES: (I) IMPORTANCE, (II) ACHIEVEMENT AND (III) PRIORITY, USING THE FOUR CATEGORIES OF 'NONE', 'WEAK', 'CONSIDERABLE', AND 'STRONG'. BETWEEN FEBRUARY AND DECEMBER 2018, A TOTAL OF 818 INFORMANTS AGREED TO PARTICIPATE, INCLUDING 168 EMPLOYERS, 152 ALUMNI, 189 STUDENTS WHO HAD JUST GRADUATED IN 2018 OR WERE ABOUT TO GRADUATE, 51 LECTURERS AND UNIVERSITY MANAGERS, AND 258 STUDENTS. THE IMPORTANCE OF THE 13 GENERAL COMPETENCES WAS RATED MORE HIGHLY THAN GRADUATE ACHIEVEMENT. THE ABILITY TO UPHOLD PROFESSIONAL, MORAL AND ETHICAL VALUES WAS RATED BY VNU EMPLOYERS AS OF GREATEST IMPORTANCE AND THE HIGHEST ACHIEVEMENT. SIMILARLY, VNU STUDENTS AND ALUMNI RATED THIS ABILITY AS THEIR HIGHEST ACHIEVEMENT. THE ABILITY TO CONDUCT RESEARCH AND THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND, VALUE, AND RESPECT DIVERSITY AND MULTICULTURALISM WERE RATED AS OF LOWEST IMPORTANCE BY VNU EMPLOYERS. THE FORMER (ABILITY TO CONDUCT RESEARCH) WAS RATED AS OF LOWEST IMPORTANCE BY VNU ALUMNI AND THEIR LOWEST ACHIEVEMENT BY BOTH VNU ALUMNI AND VNU STUDENTS. VNU STUDENTS RATED THE LATTER ABILITY (TO UNDERSTAND, VALUE, AND RESPECT DIVERSITY AND MULTICULTURALISM) AS OF LEAST IMPORTANCE. THE ABILITY TO INITIATE, PLAN, ORGANISE, IMPLEMENT AND EVALUATE COURSES OF ACTION WAS RATED THE LOWEST ACHIEVEMENT BY VNU EMPLOYERS. THE ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE IN PRACTICE WAS CONSIDERED OF GREATEST IMPORTANCE BY BOTH VNU STUDENTS AND ALUMNI, BUT FOR THE LATTER GROUP THIS ABILITY RANKED EQUALLY WITH THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE CLEARLY AND EFFECTIVELY.

PREVIOUS STUDIES FROM MULTIPLE COUNTRIES HAVE REPORTED ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN HAPPINESS, STRESS, AND STUDENT HEALTH OUTCOMES. INFORMATION CONCERNING HAPPINESS, STRESS, AND HEALTH BEHAVIORS AMONG ASIAN STUDENTS IS LIMITED. THUS, THIS STUDY AIMED TO DESCRIBE AND INVESTIGATE (1) DIFFERENCES AND ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN HAPPINESS, HEALTH BEHAVIORS, PERCEIVED STRESS, AND DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS, AND (2) IDENTIFY SIGNIFICANT PREDICTORS OF HAPPINESS AMONG A SAMPLE OF VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS. A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY CONDUCTED DURING THE FALL SEMESTER OF 2016 INCLUDED 1775 UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS (MEAN AGE 20.23, SD=1.48) FROM THREE UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM. THE QUESTIONNAIRE INCLUDED SUBJECTIVE HAPPINESS AND PERCEIVED STRESS SCALES, DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS, AND HEALTH BEHAVIOR QUESTIONS. ANALYSES INCLUDED DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS, STUDENT'S T-TEST, ANOVA, UNIVARIATE, AND MULTIVARIATE BINARY REGRESSION. STUDENTS WHO WERE: MALE, NOT LIVING WITH PARENTS, IN 2ND, 3RD, AND 4TH YEAR, ATTENDED PUBLIC AND URBAN UNIVERSITIES AND WERE IN PUBLIC HEALTH, SPORT, AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MAJORS HAD SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER HAPPINESS SCORES THAN THEIR COMPARISON GROUPS. SIGNIFICANT UNIVARIATE ASSOCIATIONS OF HAPPINESS INCLUDED GENDER, AGE GROUP, RESIDENT STATUS, YEAR IN UNIVERSITY, UNIVERSITY NAME, MAJOR OF STUDY, EATING MORE VEGETABLES, QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF SLEEP, NOT DRINKING CAFFEINATED TEA EVERY DAY, PERCEIVED STRESS, AND DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS. SIGNIFICANT PREDICTORS OF HAPPINESS INCLUDED LIVING WITH PARENTS, YEAR IN UNIVERSITY, UNIVERSITY NAME, EATING MORE VEGETABLES, AND PERCEIVED STRESS. THIS STUDY IDENTIFIED SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES, ASSOCIATIONS, AND PREDICTORS OF HAPPINESS IN HEALTH BEHAVIORS, MENTAL HEALTH, PERCEIVED STRESS, AND SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC VARIABLES AMONG VIETNAMESE STUDENTS. A COUNTERINTUITIVE FINDING (POSITIVE ASSOCIATION) BETWEEN STRESS AND HAPPINESS IS DISCUSSED AND SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER RESEARCH ARE RECOMMENDED. IMPLICATIONS OF THIS STUDY SUGGEST THAT HAPPINESS PLAYS A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN THE HEALTH OF STUDENTS AND PROVIDES SPECIFIC AREAS OF FOCUS (E.G., DIET, RESIDENT STATUS, STRESS, TYPE OF UNIVERSITY, AND YEAR IN UNIVERSITY) FOR DEVELOPING FUTURE INTERVENTION PROGRAMS FOR ASIAN STUDENTS. 2020, MAHIDOL UNIVERSITY - ASEAN INSTITUTE FOR HEALTH DEVELOPMENT.

FORTY-EIGHT LEARNERS FROM SIX INTACT ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE (EFL) CLASSES AT A VIETNAMESE HIGH SCHOOL WERE DIVIDED INTO THREE PROFICIENCY GROUPS, EACH CONSISTING OF EIGHT DYADS. GROUP 1 WAS HIGHER PROFICIENCY (HH) DYADS; GROUP 2 CONSISTED OF MIXED PROFICIENCY DYADS (HL) AND GROUP 3 WAS LOWER PROFICIENCY (LL) DYADS. ALL THE PAIRS REHEARSED AND THEN CONSECUTIVELY PERFORMED A PROBLEM-SOLVING TASK AND A DEBATE TASK IN TWO SEPARATE CLASSROOM LESSONS. THE TOTAL DATA INCLUDED 48 REHEARSALS AND 48 CORRESPONDING PERFORMANCES COLLECTED DURING NORMAL CLASSROOM HOURS. THE RESULTS SHOW THAT, OVERALL, LL DYADS ENCOUNTERED MORE LANGUAGE PROBLEMS (MORE LRES) IN REHEARSAL THAN HH DYADS AND THEY WERE LESS LIKELY TO RESOLVE THEM SUCCESSFULLY. HOWEVER, THEY WERE ABLE TO USE A MAJORITY OF THE CORRECT RESOLUTIONS IN THE PERFORMANCE AS WELL AS THEIR HIGHER PROFICIENCY COUNTERPARTS.

DARE FOR MORE) ON BRAND AWARENESS AND PURCHASE BEHAVIOUR OF STUDENTS. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: DATA WERE COLLECTED THOROUGH 34 IN-DEPTH FACE-TO-FACE INTERVIEWS WITH UNIVERSITY STUDENTS, USING THE CUSTOMER DECISION PROCESS MODEL AS AN APPROACH. FINDINGS: THE AUTHORS RESEARCH CONFIRMED THAT CONCISENESS, RHYTHM AND JINGLE ARE KEY FEATURES STRENGTHENING CUSTOMERS RECALL AND RECOGNITION, BOTH BEING MODERATORS OF SLOGANS POWER. THE ROLE AND INFLUENCE OF SLOGANS DEPEND ON THE STAGE OF THE CUSTOMER DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. KEY INFLUENCERS REMAIN PRODUCT QUALITY, POPULARITY AND PRICE, BUT APPROPRIATE AND MEMORABLE SLOGANS ENHANCE PRODUCTS DIFFERENTIATION AND SALE. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: THE AUTHORS FINDINGS DELIVER A PARTICULAR JUSTIFICATION FOR MARKETERS NOT TO PROMISE YOUNG CONSUMERS TOO MUCH THROUGH SLOGANS, AS THIS LEADS TO TOO HIGH EXPECTATIONS ADVERSELY INFLUENCING THEIR POST-PURCHASE FEELINGS. DURING THE INFORMATION SEARCH, SLOGANS CAN CREATE OR STRENGTHEN OR WEAKEN THE WILLINGNESS TO BUY THE ADVERTISED PRODUCT, DEPENDING ON THE SLOGAN, THUS EMPHASISING THE NEED FOR CARE OVER SLOGAN DESIGN AND USE. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: THIS RESEARCH EXPANDS THE UNDERSTANDING OF SLOGANS AND BRAND AWARENESS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THEIR IMPACT ON PURCHASE BEHAVIOUR. THE RESULTS REVEALED THAT THE MODEL APPROACH TO SHOPPING BEHAVIOUR DOES NOT CONFIRM THE BELIEF THAT SLOGANS INFLUENCE CONSUMERS THE MOST DURING THE PHASE OF EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES. SLOGANS PROVIDE A REFERENCE POINT FOR YOUNG CONSUMERS TO DECIDE WHETHER THEY ARE SATISFIED OR DISSATISFIED WITH THEIR PURCHASE DURING THE POST-PURCHASE PHASE AND PROVIDE INFORMATION DURING THE INFORMATION SEARCH PHASE.

THE STUDY APPLIES QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH METHODS, AND COLLECTED DATA THROUGH STRUCTURED QUESTIONNAIRES TO 138 PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM IN 2019, RECEIVING BACK 55 VALID QUESTIONNAIRES. THE DATA WAS CLEANED AND ANALYZED WITH SPSS SOFTWARE. THE RESULTS SHOW THAT MOST PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM ASSIGNED MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY TO THEIR DEPARTMENTS, BUT RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING WAS NOT COMPREHENSIVE SINCE MANY UNIVERSITIES ARE NOT FINANCIALLY AUTONOMOUS. THE KRUSKAL WALLIS TEST WAS CONDUCTED TO COMPARE THE CURRENT SITUATION OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING AMONG UNIVERSITIES BY THE DEGREE OF AUTONOMY AND BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA. THE RESEARCH FOUND OUT THAT TOTALLY AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITIES ASSIGNED MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY TO RESPONSIBILITY CENTERS BETTER THAN SEMIAUTONOMOUS AND NON-AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITIES DID. REGARDING THE EVALUATION OF MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY, UNIVERSITIES IN CENTRAL VIETNAM RATED SPECIFIC QUANTITATIVE CRITERIA, RESIDUAL INCOME (RI) AND RETURNS ON INVESTMENT (ROI) HIGHER THAN UNIVERSITIES IN THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH OF VIETNAM DID. HOWEVER, UNIVERSITIES IN THE SOUTH OF VIETNAM RATED THE EVALUATION OF PROFITS BY DEPARTMENT HIGHER THAN THE REST.

FOR THE SAMPLE SIZE, WE CONDUCTED A QUESTIONNAIRE SURVEY OF 250 FULL-TIME THIRD-YEAR UNDERGRADUATES AT THE NATIONAL ECONOMICS UNIVERSITY, WITH CONVENIENCE SAMPLING TECHNIQUE. OF THOSE 250 UNDERGRADUATES, 150 WERE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION STUDENTS AND 100 ECONOMY MANAGEMENT STUDENTS. AFTER ELIMINATING INVALID RESPONSES DUE TO LACK OF INFORMATION OR LOW QUALITY INFORMATION, 215 RESPONSES WERE USED (93.07% OF RESPONDENTS) FOR DATA ANALYSIS. THE RESULTS SHOW THAT THE FACTOR "PERCEIVED DESIRABILITY" HAS THE STRONGEST IMPACT ON THE INTENTION TO START A BUSINESS. IT IS FOLLOWED BY THE FACTOR "PERCEIVED FEASIBILITY" IN WHICH THE "ABILITY TO SEARCH AND PLAN FOR START-UP" HAS A STRONGER INFLUENCE ON UNDERGRADUATES' ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION THAN THE "LEADERSHIP AND ABILITY TO OVERCOME ADVERSITY". THE HYPOTHESIS OF A POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN UNDERGRADUATES' PROPENSITY TO ACT AND THEIR INTENTION TO START A BUSINESS IS ALSO SUPPORTED IN THIS STUDY. BASED ON THE RESULTS, WE SUGGEST SOME RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE UNIVERSITY AND STATE MANAGEMENT AGENCIES TO NURTURE AND DEVELOP ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION OF UNDERGRADUATES, FORMING THE YOUNG GENERATION OF POTENTIAL ENTREPRENEURS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF EMERGING COUNTRIES SUCH AS VIETNAM, THE CASE STUDY.

THE LEVEL OF MISBEHAVIORS OF PEDAGOGICAL STUDENTS IN THE CLASSROOM AT CAN THO UNIVERSITY IN VIETNAM HAS NOT BEEN INSUFFICIENTLY RESEARCHED TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION. THIS STUDY WAS CONDUCTED TO SEEK TO ANSWER THE QUESTION: IS THE OCCURRENCE OF MISBEHAVIORS AMONG STUDENTS IN CAN THO UNIVERSITY, VIET NAM RELATED TO THEIR GENDER, MAJORS AND SCHOOL YEAR? THE QUESTIONNAIRES DESIGNED WERE DELIVERED TO 232 PEDAGOGICAL STUDENTS IN CAN THO UNIVERSITY, VIET NAM. THE SPSS FOR WINDOWS WAS USED TO CODE VIA, AND ANALYZE THE DATA COLLECTED BY PERCENT, FREQUENCIES, MEAN, STD. DEVIATION T-TEST, AND SPEARMAN CORRELATION. THE RESULTS OF THIS STUDY SHOWED THAT PEDAGOGICAL STUDENTS HAD VARIOUS KINDS OF MISBEHAVIORS CONDUCTED IN THE CLASSROOM. THERE WERE NO CORRELATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEAN SCORES OF MISBEHAVIORS OF PEDAGOGICAL STUDENTS REGARDING GENDER AND SCHOOL YEAR. OTHERWISE, CORRELATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEAN SCORES OF MISBEHAVIORS OF PEDAGOGICAL STUDENTS REGARDING MAJORS WERE FOUND. THESE FINDINGS HELP TO PUT FORWARD A SUGGESTION THAT THOSE WHO WORK IN TRAINING AND EDUCATION NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF STUDENTS' MAJORS IN THE PROCESS OF ADJUSTING MISBEHAVIORS FOR STUDENTS.

THIS RESEARCH, THEREFORE, HAS TWO MAIN GOALS: 1) TO EXAMINE THE PSYCHOLOGICAL OUTCOMES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-WARMTH AND SELF-COLDNESS IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS; 2) TO EXPLORE THE INTERACTION BETWEEN SELF-WARMTH AND SELF-COLDNESS IN PREDICTING VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS' WELL-BEING. THE RESULTS OF A MULTIPLE REGRESSION ANALYSIS PROVIDE THE EVIDENCE THAT BOTH SELF-WARMTH AND SELF-COLDNESS SHOWED SIGNIFICANT PREDICTIVE POWER IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS' WELL-BEING. MODERATION ANALYSIS CARRIED OUT USING THE PROCESS MACRO FOR SPSS INDICATED THAT SELF-WARMTH SIGNIFICANTLY MODERATED THE LINK BETWEEN SELF-COLDNESS AND PERCEIVED STRESS. THESE FINDINGS HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCHOOL-BASED WELL-BEING INTERVENTIONS IN VIETNAM IN PARTICULAR, AND THE SOUTH-EAST ASIAN REGION IN GENERAL. 2020 AAC. | |

Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | CYBERSECURITY AWARENESS; NETWORK ANALYTICS; ONLINE LEARNING SYSTEMS; UNIVERSITY STUDENTS; | MANY UNIVERSITIES HAVE BEEN WIDELY DELIVERING ONLINE COURSES VIA ONLINE LEARNING SYSTEMS THAT RELY ON THE INTERNET IN THEIR EXECUTION. HOWEVER, SUCH SYSTEMS OFTEN FOCUS ON THE DELIVERY OF ONLINE COURSES WHILE OVERLOOKING CYBERSECURITY ISSUES. TO ENSURE THE CYBERSECURITY OF THE ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, STUDENTS AND END-USERS MUST HAVE APPROPRIATE KNOWLEDGE AND BE AWARE OF CYBERSECURITY ISSUES. THIS RESEARCH IDENTIFIES THE KEY KNOWLEDGE AREAS THAT BELONG TO THE STUDENTS' CYBERSECURITY AWARENESS, NAMELY INTERNAL THREATS, FALSE IDENTITY AUTHENTICATION, AND PERSONAL DATA LEAKAGE. IT THEN PROPOSES THE NETWORK ANALYTICS APPROACH TO DISSEMINATE CYBERSECURITY KNOWLEDGE, BY IDENTIFYING THE INFLUENTIAL STUDENTS FROM THEIR SOCIAL NETWORKS OF ONLINE INTERACTIONS IN THE ONLINE LEARNING SYSTEMS.

| THE EFFECT OF ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES ON DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AND SUICIDAL THOUGHT IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS: FINDINGS FROM MULTIPLE CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDIES | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | ADOLESCENTS; ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE; DEPRESSION; PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS; SUICIDAL THOUGHT; | EXPOSING TO ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES (ACES) HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS ONE OF THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO POOR MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE IN ADOLESCENTS. HOWEVER, LITTLE IS KNOWN ABOUT THIS RELATIONSHIP IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS. THIS STUDY AIMED TO EVALUATE THE EFFECT OF ACES ON DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AND SUICIDAL THOUGHT AMONG VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS ACROSS DIFFERENT AREAS IN VIETNAM. CROSS-SECTIONAL SURVEYS WERE CONDUCTED AMONG 4957 SECONDARY SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AGED 1320 IN URBAN AREA, RURAL AREA, BORDER AREA AND MOUNTAINOUS AREA. THE STUDENTS WERE ASKED TO COMPLETE A SELF-REPORT QUESTIONNAIRE WHICH INCLUDED THE CENTER FOR EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES DEPRESSION, THE KESSLER-10 AND ACE QUESTIONNAIRE FROM THE WHO ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES STUDY. SUICIDAL THOUGHT WAS EVALUATED BY A SINGLE QUESTION FROM THE U.S. YOUTH RISK BEHAVIOR SURVEY. AMONG 4720 STUDENTS INCLUDED IN THE ANALYSIS, 54.4% WERE FEMALE. THE PREVALENCE OF DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AND SUICIDAL THOUGHT WAS 22.9%, 30.6% AND 10.9% RESPECTIVELY. ABOUT 86% OF PARTICIPANTS EXPERIENCED AT LEAST ONE TYPE OF ACES AND NEARLY 56% REPORTED MULTIPLE TYPES OF ACES. STUDENTS WITH FOUR OR MORE TYPES OF ACES HAD 6.98 (95% CI 5.09 9.56), 4.72 (95 % CI 3.586.23) AND 6.43 (95 % CI 4.459.30) TIMES HIGHER IN ODDS OF HAVING DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AND SUICIDAL THOUGHT RESPECTIVELY. IN CONCLUSION, ACES ARE COMMON IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS AND ARE STRONGLY ASSOCIATED WITH DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AND SUICIDAL THOUGHT. OUR FINDING INDICATES URGENT NEEDS FOR INTERVENTIONS TARGETING BOTH ACES AND DEPRESSION, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS IN VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS. 2020 ELSEVIER B.V. | |

THERE IS NO EVIDENCE ABOUT THIS RELATIONSHIP IN COUNTRIES WITH THE IMPACT OF CONFUCIANISM AND FEUDALISM, IN WHICH PARENTS USE AUTHORITARIAN CAREGIVING TO FOSTER THEIR CHILDREN. THE AIM OF THE CURRENT STUDY WAS TO EXAMINE THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PARENTING STYLES AND EI AMONG VIETNAMESE ADOLESCENTS. THIS IS A CROSS-SECTIONAL SCHOOL SURVEY USING MULTILEVEL REGRESSION ANALYSES CONTROLLING FOR POTENTIAL CONFOUNDERS AND SCHOOL CLUSTER EFFECTS. THE PRINCIPAL DATA SOURCES WERE THE TRAIT EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE QUESTIONNAIREADOLESCENT SHORT FORM, WHICH HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO VIETNAMESE, AND THE LOCALLY VALIDATED PARENTAL BONDING INSTRUMENT, WHICH ASSESSES THREE MAIN PARENTING STYLES: WARMTH, OVERPROTECTIVENESS, AND AUTHORITARIANISM. RESULTS FROM 1,593 STUDENTS REVEALED THAT BOYS HAD SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER OVERALL EI, WELL-BEING, AND SELF-CONTROL SUBSCALE SCORES THAN GIRLS. THE WARMTH OF PARENTS DURING CHILDHOOD WAS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHER EI, WHILE OVERPROTECTIVENESS AND AUTHORITARIANISM FROM MOTHERS WERE ASSOCIATED WITH LOWER EI AMONG ADOLESCENTS. THIS STUDY SUPPORTS THE IMPACT OF PARENTING STYLES ON EI. THE WARMTH AND CARE FROM BOTH MOTHER AND FATHER WILL BENEFIT THE EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR CHILDREN IN VIETNAM. THE AUTHOR(S) 2020. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCILNATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | CORRUPTION; FISCAL POLICY; SHADOW ECONOMY; | THIS ARTICLE EMPIRICALLY STUDIES HOW FISCAL POLICY AFFECTS THE SHADOW ECONOMY THROUGH THE TWO TOOLS OF TAXATION AND GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURE, AND HOW THIS EFFECT DEPENDS ON THE PRESENCE OF CORRUPTION. BY USING A PANEL DATA FOR 24 DEVELOPING ASIAN COUNTRIES OVER THE PERIOD OF 20022015, WE FIND THAT THE SHADOW ECONOMY IS NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY EXPANSIONARY FISCAL POLICIES AND POSITIVELY AFFECTED BY CONTRACTIONARY FISCAL POLICIES, EXTENDING THE VOLUNTARIST SCHOOL OF THOUGHT ON SHADOW ECONOMY; AND CORRUPTION AND SHADOW ECONOMY ARE COMPLEMENTS. SPECIFICALLY, THE TAX BURDEN FROM BOTH DIRECT AND INDIRECT TAXES INCREASES THE SHADOW ECONOMY AND THE INCREASE IN CORRUPTION INTENSIFIES THIS EFFECT. FURTHERMORE, THE GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURE REDUCES THE SIZE OF THE SHADOW ECONOMY AND THE INCREASE IN CORRUPTION ATTENUATES THIS EFFECT. IN ADDITION, WE FIND A STRONGER IMPACT OF INDIRECT TAXES, COMPARED TO DIRECT TAXES; A STRONGER EFFECT OF GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURE, IN COMPARISON WITH DIRECT AND INDIRECT TAXES; AND A DOMINATING IMPACT OF CORRUPTION ON THE SHADOW ECONOMY IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. THE FINDINGS INDICATE THAT GOVERNMENTS CAN UTILIZE EXPANSIONARY FISCAL POLICIES THROUGH APPROPRIATE COMBINATION OF DIRECT TAXES, INDIRECT TAXES AND GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURE TO REDUCE THE SHADOW ECONOMY, PROVIDED THAT CORRUPTION IS CONTROLLED. 2019, SPRINGER-VERLAG GMBH GERMANY, PART OF SPRINGER NATURE. | |

IN SOME DEVELOPED COUNTRIES WITH ADVANCED EDUCATION, PBL HAS BEEN APPLIED TO LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING WIDELY AND EFFECTIVELY. HOWEVER, IN THE CONTEXT OF VIETNAM, PBL IS UNLIKELY TO BE VIEWED AS AN INTEGRAL APPROACH TO ENHANCE STUDENTS' SELF-DIRECTED ABILITIES IN THEIR LEARNING. THIS PAPER AIMED AT INVESTIGATING EFL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS' ATTITUDES TOWARDS PBL WHEN THEY IMPLEMENTED PBL WITH THE NEW ENGLISH TEXTBOOKS AT BUI THI XUAN HIGH SCHOOL IN VIETNAM. THIS STUDY INVOLVED ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FIVE EFL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN ANSWERING THE QUESTIONNAIRE AND FORTY STUDENTS IN RESPONDING TO SEMI-STRUCTURED INTERVIEW QUESTIONS. THE QUANTITATIVE DATA WERE PROCESSED BY SPSS IN TERMS OF DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS (MEANS, STANDARD DEVIATION, AND FREQUENCY), AND CONTENT ANALYSIS WAS USED FOR ANALYZING THE QUALITATIVE DATA. THE FINDINGS OF THE STUDY SHOWED THAT EFL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS EXPRESSED POSITIVE ATTITUDES (I.E. COGNITION, AFFECTION, AND BEHAVIOR) TOWARD PBL. THE DATA FROM THE SEMI-STRUCTURED INTERVIEW WERE CODED AND ANALYZED TO MAKE THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY CLEARER. THESE PRELIMINARY FINDINGS ARE HOPED TO CONTRIBUTE TO A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE CURRENT PERSPECTIVES OF APPLYING PBL INTO LANGUAGE LEARNING IN THE VIETNAMESE CONTEXT SO THAT PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS SHOULD BE MADE IN ORDER TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF TEACHING IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE EDUCATION IN DA LAT SPECIFICALLY AND VIETNAM IN GENERAL.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCILNATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | COLLABORATION; HOOKES LAW; INTERDISCIPLINARY; LINEAR FUNCTION; STEM EDUCATION; | ONE OF THE DIFFICULTIES OF IMPLEMENTING STEM EDUCATION IN VIETNAMESE SECONDARY SCHOOL IS THE CONFLICT BETWEEN STEM EDUCATION'S INTERDISCIPLINARY CHARACTERISTICS AND THE CURRENT MONODISCIPLINARY TEACHING IN VIETNAM. IN THIS CONTEXT, THE PAPER MENTIONS SOME SCENARIOS FROM THE COLLABORATION OF THE TEACHERS FROM DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT STEM EDUCATION IN HIGH SCHOOL, BUT THESE SCENARIOS STILL RETAIN THE SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS OF EACH SUBJECT. DERIVING FROM THE IDEAS OF THE STEM PRODUCT THAT IS A SPRING SCALE, THE TEACHERS ANALYZED THE PROGRAM AND TEXTBOOKS TO IDENTIFY RELEVANT KNOWLEDGE. THEN, APPLYING THE ENGINEERING DESIGN PROCESS, TWO STEM LESSON PLANS WERE DESIGNED AND TAUGHT EXPERIMENTALLY BY A MATHEMATICS TEACHER AND A PHYSICS TEACHER. FOR MATHEMATICS, STUDENTS COLLECTED DATA ABOUT THE LENGTH OF SPRING AFTER HANGING HEAVY OBJECTS. THEN, WORKING IN THE TRANSFORMATIONS BETWEEN MANY FUNCTIONAL REGISTERS LIKE TABLE, GRAPH AND ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION, THEY FOUND THAT THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE LENGTH OF THE SPRING AND THE WEIGHT OF THE HEAVY OBJECT CAN BE EXPRESSED BY A LINEAR FUNCTION. FOR PHYSICS, THE EXPERIMENT OF MEASURING THE DISPLACEMENT OF THE SPRING ALLOWS STUDENTS TO DISCOVER THE INVARIANTS OF THE RATIO BETWEEN ELASTIC FORCE AND THE DISPLACEMENT OF THE SPRING (ACCORDING TO HOOKES LAW). IN THE END, THE STUDENT SUCCESSFULLY CREATED PORTABLE SPRING SCALES IN DIFFERENT WAYS. THEREFORE, THESE SITUATIONS ARE PROOF TO PROMOTE THE NATURAL SCIENCE-SUBJECTS TEACHERS' COLLABORATION THROUGH THE DOMINANT PERCEPTION AS WELL AS THE CONTRIBUTION OF EACH DISCIPLINE IN DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING A STEM ACTIVITY IN THE FUTURE.

THIS PAPER EXAMINES THE IMPACT OF SOCIAL NETWORK USAGE ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF STUDENTS. THE RESEARCH DATA WERE COLLECTED FROM A STRATIFIED SAMPLING SURVEY INCLUDING 576 VIETNAMESE UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS. THE RESEARCH MODEL HAS FIVE INDEPENDENT VARIABLES (PERCEIVED USEFULNESS, PERCEIVED EASE OF USE, SOCIAL INFLUENCES, FACILITATING CONDITIONS, COMMUNITY IDENTITY), ONE MEDIATING VARIABLE (SOCIAL NETWORK USAGE), AND ONE DEPENDENT VARIABLE (ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE). THE STUDY METHODS INCLUDE THE CRONBACHS ALPHA TEST, THE EXPLORATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS, THE CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS, AND THE STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING ARE EMPLOYED TO QUANTITATIVELY ANALYZE THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG VARIABLES. THE RESULT FINDS THAT THERE ARE POSITIVE AND SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS OF PERCEIVED USEFULNESS, PERCEIVED EASE OF USE, SOCIAL INFLUENCES, COMMUNITY IDENTITY ON SOCIAL NETWORK USAGE. THE IMPACT OF FACILITATING CONDITIONS ON SOCIAL NETWORK USAGE IS POSITIVE, HOWEVER, IT IS NOT SIGNIFICANT. THE RESULT ALSO CONCLUDES THAT THERE IS A POSITIVE AND SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF SOCIAL NETWORK USAGE ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF STUDENTS. BESIDES, THE EMPIRICAL STATISTICAL DATA INDICATES THAT SOCIAL NETWORKS ARE REALLY A POPULAR AND FAMILIAR TOOL FOR HELPING STUDENTS TO COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER IN VIETNAM. FINALLY, THE STUDY RESULT SUGGESTS THAT EDUCATIONAL MANAGERS MAY USE SOCIAL NETWORKS AS AN INFORMAL TOOL TO ENHANCE NOT ONLY THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF STUDENTS BUT ALSO OTHER EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES IN UNIVERSITIES.

TO ADDRESS THE ENDOGENEITY ISSUE, THE STUDY PROPOSES AN INSTRUMENTAL VARIABLE THAT IS LAND PER CAPITA AT THE COMMUNE LEVEL. THE STUDY ALSO USES ANOTHER INSTRUMENTAL VARIABLE THE PERCENTAGE OF LAND PLOT ACQUISITION BEFORE 1993 TO CHECK THE ROBUSTNESS OF THE RESULTS. THE FINDINGS ARE THAT HIGHER LAND FRAGMENTATION DECREASES CHILD SCHOOL DROPOUT. LAND FRAGMENTATION HAS SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS ON SCHOOL DROPOUT OF CHILDREN AGED 1015, HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT HAVE ANY IMPACT ON SCHOOL DROPOUT OF CHILDREN AGED 610. WE EXPLAIN THESE FINDINGS THROUGH ONE PARTICULAR MECHANISM THAT IS WOMEN EMPOWERMENT. A HIGHER LEVEL OF LAND FRAGMENTATION INCREASES WOMEN EMPOWERMENT IN DECIDING TO VISIT FAMILY, FRIENDS OR RELATIVES, THE PURCHASE OF DAILY GOODS, LARGE PURCHASES, THEIR OWN HEALTH, AND THEIR CHILDREN'S HEALTH. A VARIETY OF ROBUSTNESS CHECKS CORROBORATE THESE FINDINGS. 2020 | |

METHODOLOGY: A SURVEY AIMED AT ASSESSING THE LEVEL OF PERCEPTION OF RESPONDENTS ABOUT THE NEED TO CARRY OUT ACCOUNTABLE ACTIVITIES AND ASSESSING THE REAL LEVEL OF ACCOUNTABILITY OF THE STUDIED UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM. THE SURVEY INCLUDED 559 MANAGERS AND 448 TEACHERS FROM 5 PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM. CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF STATISTICAL DATA PROCESSING TO EMPIRICALLY ASSESS THE DENSITY AND NATURE OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE LEVEL OF PERCEPTION OF NEED AND THE ACTUAL LEVEL OF ACCOUNTABILITY OF VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITIES. MAIN FINDINGS: THE VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITIES UNDER STUDY ARE CHARACTERIZED BY AN AVERAGE LEVEL OF ACTUAL ACCOUNTABILITY, WHICH DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE EFFECTIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR AUTONOMY IN MODERN CONDITIONS. GIVEN THAT THE LEVEL OF PERCEPTION OF THE NEED FOR ACCOUNTABILITY BY UNIVERSITY PERSONNEL AND ITS ACTUAL LEVEL OF IMPLEMENTATION HAVE A DIRECT SUBORDINATE RELATIONSHIP, IT SEEMS NECESSARY TO INTRODUCE EFFECTIVE MECHANISMS OF ACCOUNTABILITY BASED ON THE MOTIVATION OF PERSONNEL OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN VIETNAM. APPLICATIONS OF THIS STUDY: THE RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH STUDY WILL BE USEFUL TO THE GOVERNMENT AUTHORITIES OF VIETNAM, AS WELL AS THE ADMINISTRATION OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION OF AN EFFECTIVE STRATEGY FOR INCREASING THE AUTONOMY OF INSTITUTIONS OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM IN VIETNAM, AS A FACTOR IN THE OPTIMAL RATIO OF STATE AND MARKET MECHANISMS IN ACHIEVING SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROGRESS.

IN TWO SEPARATE STUDIES, WE EVALUATED THE CHILDREN S ABILITIES TO PERCEIVE THE DISAPPEARANCE OF EMOTIONS IN ASIAN AND CAUCASIAN FACES IN AN OFFSET TASK. THE FIRST STUDY EVALUATED AN EMOTIONAL ORE IN VIETNAMESE-ASIAN, SWISS-CAUCASIAN, AND SWISS-MULTICULTURAL CHILDREN. OFFSET TIMES SHOWED AN EMOTIONAL ORE IN VIETNAMESE-ASIAN CHILDREN LIVING IN AN ETHNICALLY HOMOGENEOUS ENVIRONMENT, WHEREAS MIXED ETHNICITIES IN SWISS CHILDREN SEEM TO HAVE BALANCED PERFORMANCE BETWEEN FACE TYPES. THE SECOND STUDY COMPARED SOCIOEMOTIONALLY TRAINED VERSUS UNTRAINED VIETNAMESE-ASIAN CHILDREN. VIETNAMESE CHILDREN SHOWED A STRONG EMOTIONAL ORE AND TEND TO INCREASE THEIR SENSITIVITY TO EMOTION OFFSET AFTER TRAINING. MOREOVER, AN EFFECT OF EMOTION CONSISTENT WITH PREVIOUS OBSERVATION IN ADULTS COULD SUGGEST A CULTURAL SENSITIVITY TO DISAPPROVAL SIGNS. TAKEN TOGETHER, THE RESULTS SUGGEST THAT 9-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN CAN PRESENT AN EMOTIONAL ORE, BUT THAT A HETEROGENEOUS ENVIRONMENT OR AN EMOTIONAL TRAINING COULD STRENGTHEN FACE-PROCESSING ABILITIES WITHOUT REDUCING SKILLS ON THEIR OWN-GROUP. 2020 HOGREFE VERLAG GMBH & CO.

ALTHOUGH MOST STUDIES CONCLUDE THE POSITIVE IMPACT OF MICROCREDIT PARTICIPATION ON POVERTY REDUCTION THROUGH INCOME GENERATION, THERE REMAIN MIXED RESULTS. BESIDES, THERE HAS BEEN LIMITED RESEARCH DONE ON CHILDREN'S EDUCATION IN VIETNAM. THIS STUDY IS TO MEASURE THE IMPACT OF THE MICROCREDIT PROGRAMME OF THE VIETNAM BANK FOR SOCIAL POLICIES (VBSP) ON POVERTY REDUCTION (VIA INCOME INDICATORS) AND CHILDREN'S EDUCATION (VIA THE SHARES OF KIDS AND TEENAGERS IN SCHOOL) OF THE POOR- AND MIDDLE-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS IN RURAL VIETNAM. THE PAPER USES A SET OF ECONOMETRIC METHODS FOR STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS. THE STATIC MODELS CONCLUDE THAT VBSP'S MICROCREDIT HAD SIGNIFICANTLY POSITIVE IMPACTS ON AGRICULTURAL INCOME PER CAPITA AND SIGNIFICANTLY NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON THE TOTAL INCOME PER CAPITA. THE FIGURES FOR NON-FARM NON-WAGE INCOME PER CAPITA AND INDICATORS OF CHILDREN'S SCHOOLING ARE NOT STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT. MOREOVER, THE DYNAMIC MODELS INDICATE THAT THE LONG-TERM IMPACTS OF MICROCREDIT ON THE SELECTED OUTCOMES ARE INSIGNIFICANT. FROM THE ESTIMATED RESULTS, THE STUDY ALSO SUGGESTS SOME POLICY IMPLICATIONS. 2020 ELSEVIER LTD | |

DATA WERE ANALYZED USING CONTENT-DRIVEN ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY RECURRING THEMES. THE SCHOOL HEALTH OFFICERS REPORTED THAT STRESS, DEPRESSION, SUICIDAL IDEATION, AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION ISSUES WERE THE MOST COMMONLY ENCOUNTERED MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AMONG THEIR STUDENTS. THE OFFICERS WORKED WITH A LIMITED RANGE OF INTERVENTIONS FOR HELPING THESE STUDENTS, SUCH AS GIVING NON-NARCOTIC ANALGESICS OR ADVISING STUDENTS TO TAKE A SHORT BREAK AT SCHOOL OR TO GO HOME. MOST OF THEM FELT THAT THEIR TRAINING WAS INSUFFICIENT TO DEAL WITH MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS IN AN OPTIMAL WAY. THEY RECOMMENDED FURTHER TRAINING TO IMPROVE THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS IN RECOGNIZING AND MANAGING MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS IN STUDENTS. THEY ALSO CONSIDERED A UNIVERSITY-SPONSORED MENTAL HEALTH WEBSITE A GOOD SOURCE OF INFORMATION ON MENTAL HEALTH CARE FOR STUDENTS. SCHOOL HEALTH OFFICERS REPORTED THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL WELL EQUIPPED TO MANAGE MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF INSUFFICIENT TRAINING, LACK CONFIDENCE, AND ABSENCE OF AN APPROPRIATE NETWORK FOR ADVICE AND REFERRAL. UPDATED POLICIES AND PROGRAMS ARE NEEDED FOR INITIAL TRAINING AND REFRESHER COURSES, WHICH WILL STRENGTHEN THE ROLE OF SCHOOL HEALTH OFFICERS AS FIRST LINE SUPPORT FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS. 2020, THE AUTHOR(S). | |

THE ICLLT MODEL OF CONSTRUCTION, CONNECTION, INTERACTION, REFLECTION, AND EXTENSION IS DEVELOPED TO FOSTER STUDENTS INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE BY INVOKING THEIR ENGAGEMENT IN SOCIAL INTERACTION AND CRITICAL CULTURAL REFLECTION. AS SHOWN IN OBSERVATIONS AND STUDENTS EVALUATION SHEETS, THE INTERCULTURAL LANGUAGE ACTIVITIES IN ICLLT LESSONS COULD ENGAGE THE STUDENTS IN ACTIVATING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE, COMPARING CULTURE, TALKING ABOUT CULTURAL ISSUES, AND PARTICIPATING IN INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION. HOWEVER, THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REFLECT ON THEIR INTERCULTURAL PERSPECTIVES IN ORAL INTERACTION AS MUCH AS IN THEIR WRITING. IN PARALLEL, THE TEACHER AGREED THAT THE ACTIVITIES REQUIRING STUDENTS REFLECTION WERE MOST CHALLENGING AND THE OTHER THREE STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION, CONNECTION, INTERACTION COULD BE CONDUCTED IN RELEVANCE TO THREE-STAGE COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING (CLT) SKILL LESSONS OF PRE-WHILE-POST. THE ICLLT IS APPLICABLE TO TEACH INTEGRATED SKILL CLT LESSONS WITH CULTURE-SPECIFIC INPUT IF INTERCULTURAL OBJECTIVES ARE ADDED AND RELEVANT INTERCULTURAL LANGUAGE ACTIVITIES WITH MORE FOCUS ON STUDENTS INTERCULTURAL INTERACTIONS AND CRITICAL REFLECTION ARE CONDUCTED.

THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF STUDENTS ARE MAINLY CARRIED OUT IN LIFE AND ARE GREATLY INFLUENCED BY CULTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NATION SUCH AS CUSTOMS, WAYS OF LIFE, COMMUNICATION, FESTIVALS, BELIEFS, SPIRITUALITY, ETC. THE PROBLEM IS TO CLARIFY THE THEORETICAL BASIS FOR USING LOCAL KNOWLEDGE IN EDUCATING STUDENTS' RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES, ANALYZING THE REALITY OF EXPLOITING LOCAL KNOWLEDGE IN EDUCATING TAY AND NUNG ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS. SINCE THEN SOME MEASURES ARE PROPOSED TO EDUCATE CHILDREN'S RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES THROUGH THE USE OF LOCAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE NORTHERN UPLAND REGION.

In particular, it is essential to check and to review operations in the process of solving a mathematical problem, since it enables the evaluation of the reasonability of the data presented by the given problem. This study aimed to detect and enhance the control and verification activities of students as they solved pseudo-real problems associated with the systems of equations with two unknowns in high schools. The empirical sample consisted of 91 10th grade students, and the instrument used was made up of four pseudo-real problems. The teaching process covered the individual as well as the group stages of the work, especially the participants' discussion stages. To clarify the verification and control process of the students when solving the given problems, the researchers analyzed the data collected qualitatively. It turned out that the students stopped verifying the results and managed to resolve all the problems with the initial conditions. The answers did not appear to be realistic in all the students' worksheets in the process. Nevertheless, in the course of such learning, the students became more aware of the fact that they never before had to verify and control the results of the problems. Moreover, empirical findings produced various vital implications for teachers and students and recommendations. Copyright 2020 by authors, all rights reserved.

One was to respond to the question: what makes a quality curriculum? Within the framework of the fourth united nations sustainable development goal (sdg 4). The other was to develop and pilot an appropriate instrument to evaluate the quality of curricula in a sample of private schools in vietnam. While public schools are still preparing for implementation of vietnams new general educational curriculum, small adjustments are already being made to the curriculum in some private and international schools in vietnam, which have been issued a curriculum customisation licence. Therefore, the pilot schools which participated in this study can serve as case studies for the upcoming major policy improvement in vietnams public schools, thus providing guidance for vietnamese policymakers, school principals and teachers. While there is no one-size-fits-all curriculum assessment formula, since each country exhibits distinctive features in its teaching and learning programme, the indicators developed by the authors for their study can be adjusted to suit the needs of other countries. 2020, Unesco institute for lifelong learning and springer nature b.V. | |

Tiếng Anh | B GIO DC V O TOB GIO DC V O TO | COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE; COMMUNITY PERCEPTIONS; TEACHER EDUCATION; TRANSFORMATION; | Rather than being confined to academic knowledge provided by university-based programmes, there are calls for teacher education to embrace the knowledge situated within local communities. Drawing on the theories of community knowledge in teaching and teacher education, this paper reports the results of a study that explores community members perceptions of teachers, teaching and teacher education in vietnam. Using in-depth interviews, the study considered the perceptions and experiences of 20 community members in a large vietnamese city. The results imply that community members consider k-12 school teachers knowledge to be inadequate, criticising the pedagogical practices of these teachers as traditional and inflexible. The challenges confronting k-12 schools in vietnam are, according to the participants, partly caused by the existing policies and practices of teacher education. Suggestions for addressing these concerns through collaboration between community members, teacher educators, teacher candidates and k-12 teachers with the aim of transforming teaching and teacher education within vietnam are discussed and implications for future research considered. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

The present study evaluated a school-based mhl program, the mental health & high school curriculum guide (the guide), implemented separately in two different contexts in southeast asia (vietnam and cambodia) following adaptations made by the research team. Participants were 80 teachers and 2539 students from 20 schools in vietnam (study 1), and 67 teachers and 275 students in one school in cambodia (study 2). In vietnam, teachers/classrooms were randomized to either the guide mhl program or a treatment-as-usual control condition, with teachers in the intervention condition receiving a 3-day training in the guide and implementing the 6-module curriculum in their classrooms. In cambodia, school staff were randomized to either receive the guide training or to the control condition; four teachers who received the training implemented the curriculum in select classrooms. In both studies, teachers and students mental health knowledge and attitudes were assessed at baseline and following completion of the classroom curriculum. In vietnam, 6 of 7 program effects for teachers were significant with some large effects (e.G., Teacher recognition of mental health disorders, r2 =.36); Effects for both of the student outcomes were significant, but small. Results were similar in cambodia, with 6 of 9 program effects significant favoring the treatment group; effect sizes in cambodia were smaller than in vietnam for teachers/staff but larger for students. Findings suggest that with limited adaptation, a teacher-delivered mhl intervention can produce measurable increases in mhl among teachers and students in two southeast asian countries. These results support the value of school-based mhl training provided via an inexpensive and teacher-friendly program, embedding mhl into classrooms. Some small effect sizes suggest the importance of additional development and research targeting these particular components. 2020, Springer science+business media, llc, part of springer nature. | |
| A Teaching Process of Fostering Students’ Problem-solving Skills: a Case Study of Teaching the Equation of a Line | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | EQUATION OF A LINE; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILL; THE TEACHING PROCESS; | Teaching mathematics is typically designed to develop the skills of learners, including problem-solving skills. Practice requires teachers to use effective teaching processes to bring the necessary mathematical skills back to the students. In many teaching models, attention must be paid to the lesson study model, which originated in japan, because it has many educational meanings. This research aims to deploy a teaching process that promotes students' problem-solving skills to solve two mathematical problems in writing straight-line equations. The study used the model of a lesson study to do this. Two classes, including 74 students, have been selected for the control and experimental groups. For the first time, a lesson plan was taught in the control class; then it was thoughtfully adapted and taught for the second time in the experimental class. The data was based on the students' worksheets in two classes and qualitatively analysed to show progress in the teaching process. The findings indicated that the teaching process of the teacher's straight-line equations has led to a positive change in the ability of students to solve problems in the experimental class. These results also revealed more about the effectiveness of a lesson study model. Besides, some implications related to the professional development of teachers in teaching experience have been drawn up, such as teaching practice, competence, assessment skills and the lesson study team.

| A Study on Factors Affecting School Principals Competencies in Vietnams Mountainous Provinces | , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | COMPETENCIES; MOUNTAINOUS PROVINCES; PRINCIPAL; SCHOOL LEADER; | Given principals central role in school performance, this study seeks to explore factors that influence school principal competency. The study employed a quantitative research approach. A survey questionnaire was administered to 290 principals across six northwestern mountainous provinces in vietnam. The questionnaire considered eight areas of principal competency, including self-development and the development of others; school organization and operation; staff development; instructional programme management; education quality assurance management; management of financial resources; engagement with families, community and government; and the schools strategic planning. Analyses of variance and correlation (pearsons r) techniques were used, and the findings demonstrate that principals competencies were statistically affected by both internal factors (gender, experience, health, family and it skills) and external factors (school location, school demographics and school facilities). However, the study found no correlation between principals academic qualifications and their competencies. 2020 British educational leadership, management & administration society (belmas). | |
| A Pilot Result on Applying the Vocational School-based Program for Vietnamese High School Students Based on a New Individual Guidance Approach | , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCE; PILOT RESULT; SOCIAL INTERACTION; VOCATIONAL ORIENTATION; VOCATIONAL SCHOOL-BASED PROGRAM; | Vocational orientation is a concerned topic in the vietnamese new general education program. However, the current high school vocational programs have not yet met the need for innovation in the student competence development orientation, thus leading to high school vocational orientation has not been effective. This study proposes a vocational school-based program approached from a new individual guidance. By using the pre-experiment and post-experiment questionnaire to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed program to the quality of vocational orientation, the results showed that students' awareness of vocational school-based programs changed in a positive direction. The proposed program proves its effectiveness when applied in schools by combining the practical career experience and vocational counseling, or the combination of individual experience and social interaction in choosing a suitable career. This finding overcomes the disadvantages of the old vocational school-based program and can be applied to adapt the student competence development orientation in the vietnamese general education program. 2020 The author(s).

| Developing a Tool to Assess Students Views of Nature of Science in Vietnam | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | INSTRUMENT; NATURE OF SCIENCE; VIETNAM; | Nature of science (nos) is a common topic in science education nowadays. However, to classify the nature of science is not totally consensus through documents. The assessment of views of nature of science, therefore, was facing multi issues. Especially, in assessing views of nos in a new context other than from where a validated tool was developed. Researchers and educators should notice certain issues relating to nos. This paper will provide and discuss how to develop a more appropriate nos tool to best use for vietnamese physics student teachers based on some previously validated tools and the empirical data from the research on the context. Instead of using a provided tool robotically, the paper calls for a more critical employment of the tool based on the consideration of social and cultural context. This is not only important in the case of vietnam but also in any new circumstance. 2020 Science education study program fmipa unnes semarang. | |
| A Scientometric Study on Depression Among University Students in East Asia: Research and System Insufficiencies? | , , , , , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | CHINA; DEPRESSIVE DISORDER; FUNDING; INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION; JAPAN; KOREA; SCIENTIFIC IMPACT; SCIENTIFIC OUTPUT; SCIENTIFIC QUALITY; UNIVERSITY STUDENT; | Given that mental health issues are acute in asian countries, particularly japan and korea, and university students are more vulnerable to depression than the general population, this study aims to examine the landscapes of scientific research regarding depressive disorders among university students and evaluate the effectiveness of international collaboration and funding provision on the scientific impact in korea, japan, and china. Based on articles retrieved from the web of science database during the period 1992-2018, we found that the number of scientific publications, international collaborations, and allocated funds regarding depressive disorder among university students in china (97 articles, 43 international collaborations, and 52 funds provided, respectively) overwhelmingly surpassed the case of korea (37 articles, 12 international collaborations, and 15 funds provided, respectively) and japan (24 articles, 5 international collaborations, and 6 funds provided, respectively). The differences in collaboration patterns (p-value < 0.05) And the proportion of allocated funds (p-value < 0.05) Among korea, japan, and china were also noted using fisher's exact test. Based on the poisson regression analysis, china's associations of scientific impact with international collaboration ( =-0.322, P-value < 0.01) And funding provision ( =-0.397, P-value < 0.01) Are negative, while associations of the scientific impact and scientific quality with funding provision and international collaboration were statistically insignificant. These findings hint that korea and japan lacked scientific output, diversity in research targets, international collaboration, and funding provision, compared to china, but the quality of either china's internationally collaborated or funded articles was contentious. As a result, policymakers in korea and japan are suggested to raise the importance of mental health problems in their future policy planning and resource distribution. Moreover, it would be advisable to establish a rigorous system of evaluation for the quality of internationally collaborated and funded studies in order to increase scientific impact and maintain public trust, especially in china. 2020 By the authors. | |
| Solving Word Problems Involving “ratio” Concept of the Fifth – Grade Students: a Study in Vietnam | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | DIFFICULTY IN WORD PROBLEM SOLVING; MATHEMATICAL SOLVING STRATEGY; MISCONCEPTION; PRIMARY MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; RATIO; WORD PROBLEM - SOLVING; | The ratio is a mathematical concept that is useful in real life. In vietnam, at an elementary level, students are acquainted with ratios in grade 4 through word problems and arithmetic operations. In grade 5, students continue to be familiar with proportional quantities and percentages which are related to ratios. In secondary schools, students will continue to study the slope of a straight line and trigonometric concepts which are essential applications of the ratio. Therefore, it is essential to help vietnamese students understand the concept of a ratio and successfully solve word problems involving ratios. It should be an indispensable objective in teaching mathematics at primary levels in general and in grades 4-5 in particular. The paper presents the results of the analysis of mathematical content related to the ratio in primary mathematics textbooks of vietnam and an experiment on solving word problems related to ratios of the fifth-grade students. It was found out that the misconceptions of ratio and lack of solving strategies cause primary school students' difficulties in solving word problems involving ratio. From that, the authors propose some solutions to improve students' abilities in solving these problems. Copyright 2020 by authors, all rights reserved. | |

Tiếng Anh | I HC QUC GIA H NII HC QUC GIA H NI | BRAND CO-CREATION; BRAND POSITIONING; BRAND TRUST; BRAND USAGE EXPERIENCE; DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; HIGHER EDUCATION; SOCIAL BRAND ENGAGEMENT; | The widespread popularity of social media facilitates many changes in the higher education sector including the branding activities of higher educational institutions (heis) in developing countries. Drawing from the uses and gratifications theory, this paper examines the influence of social brand engagement among prospective students on brand positioning of heis taking into consideration brand co-creation, and brand trust as mediators and brand usage experience as a moderator. The quantitative findings from 384 undergraduates from sri lanka indicated that undergraduates social engagement with heis via social media develops a distinctive hei brand positioning among the students. Brand co-creation and brand trust were found to mediate the effect of social brand engagement on brand positioning. In addition, brand usage experience mediates the effect of brand co-creation and brand trust on brand positioning. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Evaluation of Lecturers Performance Using a Novel Hierarchical Multi-criteria Model Based on an Interval Complex Neutrosophic Set | , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | AHP; INTERVAL COMPLEX NEUTROSOPHIC; LECTURER EVALUATION; TOPSIS; | Performance assessment of teaching competency plays an important role in educational activities. Previous assessments of lecturers performance have failed to distinguish between potential capacity and their teaching effectiveness. To solve this problem, the integrated approach of quantitative assessment and multi-criteria decision-making models has become one of the main trends for assessing the performance of lecturers in multiple dimensions: self, peer-, manager-and student-based evaluation. This paper proposes a novel hierarchical approach, developed by the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution method in an interval-valued complex neutrosophic set environment, to more accurately and comprehensively understand the evaluation process and fit it into a systematic framework. An application is given to illustrate a practical solution in lecturers evaluation. The accuracy of the proposed method is verified by comparing with other methods. 2020, Growing science.

| Investigating Informational Texts Teaching and Learning in Developing Countries: the Case of Vietnamese High Schools | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; HIGH SCHOOLS; INFORMATIONAL TEXTS; READING COMPREHENSION; TEACHING AND LEARNING;; | Reading comprehension of informational texts has been largely debated and introduced at all levels of education across western countries. However, it has not received enough attention in developing countries including vietnam. This paper aims to investigate the procedure of reading and comprehension of informational texts in high schools in vietnam. The study surveyed 588 teachers and 2744 high school students across all regions of vietnam. The survey questionnaires asked teachers and students opinions on the teaching and learning of informational texts. Through statistical analysis with excel sheets, the results show that the part of informational texts in the curriculum was small when compared with literary texts. This shows that there is very little requirement of teaching and learning informational text in high schools which results in students limited ability in reading informational text. The findings also suggest that understanding and reading informational texts have been contended as essential to the educational performance of students. The research also revealed that both teachers and students need to be more prepared in the classrooms to teach and learn informational texts. It is recommended that vietnamese general education curricula should include a greater amount of informational texts in textbooks and instruction on informational texts should be given more attention to improve students understanding. 2020 Conscientia beam.

This study examined the vocabulary in a 273,094-word corpus of high school efl textbooks in china and measured the vocabulary knowledge of 265 high school students who used these textbooks. The corpus analysis showed that 3000 word-families and 9000 word-families were needed to reach 95% and 98% of the whole textbook corpus, respectively. However, vocabulary size needed for comprehension of each textbook varied greatly and did not always correspond to the textbook levels. Additionally, while the most frequent 1000 words were fairly well-represented in the textbooks, the 2nd and 3rd most frequent 1000 word-families were not. Scores on webb, sasao, and ballance's (2017) updated vocabulary levels test revealed that the majority of the students either had mastered only the most frequent 1000 words or had not mastered any 1000-word levels. Pedagogical implications for high school efl textbook writers, program managers, and teachers are discussed. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |
| On Geopolitics and Education: Interventions, Possibilities, and Future Directions | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONU.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCESINSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIAUNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA | EDUCATION; FEMINIST GEOPOLITICS; GEOPOLITICS; INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS; | In this article, I survey the rapidly developing literature on the symbiotic relationship between the education sector and geopolitics. Scholars across disciplines increasingly have studied how schools are implicated in and affected by broader geopolitical goals, particularly related to territorial security and national defense. Given the range of disciplinary interventions from international relations to education studies, discussions on the school-geopolitics nexus often have been isolated and placed in relationship to other disciplinary conversations, forestalling rich cross-disciplinary engagements to advance theorizations on the relationship between education and geopolitics. This review article, therefore, places studies on schools and geopolitics in conversation with each other and plots future directions for this emerging subfield. In doing so, I call on geographers to further engage the multi-scalar analytics of feminist geopolitics, which can generate a more nuanced understanding of the school-geopolitics nexus by more fully accounting for how geopolitical processes are differentially experienced, negotiated, and contested and for how the education sector itself maintains its own internal logics and contradictions irreducible to the external forces exerted on it. 2020 John wiley & sons ltd | |

Tiếng Anh | U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONU.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCESINSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTINUNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN | The purpose of this study was to measure the mathematics-vocabulary performance of 3rd graders to determine if performance differences existed among english learners (els) and non-els with and without mathematics difficulty (md). Using screening data from a large-scale intervention study, we categorized students into four groups based on equation solving and word-problem performance: no md, equation difficulty, word-problem difficulty, or equation and word-problem difficulty. Within these four categories, we compared student performance between els and non-els. Results showed els scored lower than non-els across all groups. Both els and non-els with equation and word-problem difficulty demonstrated lower performance on the mathematics vocabulary measure than students with only equation difficulty or word-problem difficulty. Findings indicated els and students with md have limited mathematics vocabulary knowledge and may require focused instruction on the language of mathematics. 2019, 2019 Taylor & francis group, llc. | ||

Tiếng Anh | AMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION | ASIAN AMERICAN PARENTS; MENTAL HEALTH LITERACY; PREVENTION; SCHOOL-BASED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES; | Asian american adolescents tend to underutilize mental health services at school and often do not receive the mental health services they need. Parents play an important role in youth mental health service utilization. However, few studies have examined asian american parents knowledge and beliefs about the help-seeking process. The present qualitative study explores asian american parents beliefs about helpful strategies for addressing youth mental illness (i.E., Depression and eating disorders) with special attention to school-based strategies. Nineteen asian american parents (m = 46.05Years, sd = 4.2) Completed a semi-structured interview. The interviews were coded for themes to understand asian american parents beliefs about helpful strategies for addressing youth mental illness. Four general themes relating to ways of addressing youth mental health concerns emerged: providing social support, teaching and educating about mental health, seeking professional help, and identifying the problem and finding the cause. The roles that the school and culture play in each of these strategies are discussed. Implications are given for school-based mental health providers based on the finding. 2020, Springer science+business media, llc, part of springer nature. | |

Tiếng Anh | AMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION | HUMAN-COMPUTER INTERACTION; INSTANT ONLINE PEER FEEDBACK; INTER-RATER MEASUREMENT; INTERFACE DESIGN; LEARNERS PERSPECTIVE; USER STUDY DESIGN; | Having a good human-computer interaction (hci) design is challenging. Previous works have contributed significantly to fostering hci, including design principle with report study from the instructor view. The questions of how and to what extent students perceive the design principles are still left open. To answer this question, this paper conducts a study of hci adoption in the classroom. The studio-based learning method is adapted to teach 83 graduate and undergraduate students in 16weeks long with four activities. A standalone presentation tool for instant online peer feedback during the presentation session is developed to help students justify and critique others work. Our tool provides a sandbox, which supports multiple application types, including web-applications, object detection, web-based virtual reality (vr), and augmented reality (ar). After presenting one assignment and two projects, our results shows that students acquired a better understanding of the golden rules principle over time, which is demonstrated by the development of visual interface design. The wordcloud reveals the primary focus was on the user interface and sheds light on students interest in user experience. The inter-rater score indicates the agreement among students that they have the same level of understanding of the principles. The results show a high level of guideline compliance with hci principles, in which we witness variations in visual cognitive styles. Regardless of diversity in visual preference, the students present high consistency and a similar perspective on adopting hci design principles. The results also elicit suggestions into the development of the hci curriculum in the future. 2020, Springer nature switzerland ag. | |

In this context, we examine the causal impact of indonesia's 1994 compulsory junior secondary schooling initiative. We apply regression discontinuity methods to a sample of about 20,000 individuals. We investigate both intent-to-treat and treatment-on-the-treated effects. We subject our empirical examination to an exhaustive battery of robustness tests. We find no evidence that the compulsory schooling program increased educational attainment. The apparent lack of impact is a unique result across studies that have examined such reforms. We discuss some limitations in government implementation that may underlie program ineffectiveness and acknowledge possible shortcomings in our analysis that may drive the estimated null effects. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

Empirical support for warns item invariance between ethnic groups is lacking. This study examined differential item functioning (dif) to ensure that items on the warns function similarly across groups, especially for groups where truancy rates are highest. The item response theory graded response model was used to examine dif between caucasian, african american, and latinx students. Dif was identified in six items across warns domains. The dif amount and magnitude likely will not influence decisions based on total scores. Implications for practice and suggestions for an ecological framework to explain the dif results are discussed.

| Leadership in International Education: Leaders Professional Development Needs and Tensions | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; LEADERS NEEDS; PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; SOCIAL FIELD AND HABITUS; TENSIONS; | This paper explores the professional development needs of leaders in response toemergent demands for leadership and competing pressureswithin the changing landscape of australian international education. Framed within bourdieus concepts of field and habitus, this study addresses five dimensions of professional development needs reported by leaders in international education: understanding of and skills to work across cultural differences, knowledge of and expertise to respond to policy changes and emergent trends, leadership and management skills targeted for internationalisation, networking and relationship management skills to work with increasingly diverse and non-traditional stakeholders and research skills. However, the social field in which these leaders are functioning is causing tensions for their continuing professional development, including existing institutional governance and structures, financial constraints and the institutional culture that has not put internationalisation on the top of institutional development agenda. The study indicates a critical need for tackling obstacles and supporting sustainable situated professional learning for these leaders so as to enhance their capacities and impact as key players in international education. This study provides empirical and theoretical insights for institutions involved in international education to build effective policies and practices for enhancing professional development for the sustainable international education leadership. 2020, Springer nature b.V. | |
| The Potential for Learning Specialized Vocabulary of University Lectures and Seminars Through Watching Discipline-related Tv Programs: Insights from Medical Corpora | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | This study investigated the potential of discipline-related television programs as sources for incidental learning of specialized vocabulary used in university lectures and seminars. First, a medical spoken word list (mswl) of 895 specialized word types was developed from a 556,074-word corpus of medical lectures and seminars based on a mixed method: corpus-driven analysis, specialized dictionary checking, and expert ratings. Then, an 11,036,771-word corpus of 37 medical television programs was developed and analyzed to examine the extent to which the mswl words were encountered in these programs. Adopting 5 encounters or more, 10 encounters or more, 15 encounters or more, and 20 encounters or more as the frequency cutoff points at which incidental learning may happen, this study found that the number of mswl words that met these cutoff points increased as the number of episodes, seasons, and programs increased. This indicates that discipline-related television programs are potential sources for incidental learning of specialized vocabulary used in lectures and seminars if these programs are watched regularly and in a sequential order. 2019 Tesol international association | ||

However, it is unclear how teacher-student understanding of seb needs relate to students academic achievement and behaviours. Based on 264 ninth-grade student-teacher dyads from one american semi-urban high school, teacher-student levels of seb agreement were assessed and compared with students grade point averages, school attendance, and number of disciplinary referrals. Findings indicate that the degree of common agreement about seb needs ranges from 48% (engagement) to 87% (bullying). Further, teacher-student agreement about externalising and bullying behaviours relates to students gpa and attendance. Agreement about an array of social skills also predicts students office disciplinary referrals. Understanding the level of agreement between teachers and students is critical in informing teacher professional development and seb-related classroom instruction. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Risk assessments are used to identify behavioral and emotional problems associated with school truancy. Although imperative for informing decisions about students welfare, risk assessments generally lack substantial validity evidence. Specifically, supporting score interpretation across cultural groups through measurement invariance (mi) is needed for such assessments. This study examined mi, specifically factor invariance (fi), of the washington assessment of the risks and needs of students (warns) across african american, latinx, and caucasian students using confirmatory factor analysis with traditional fi criteria and the equivalence testing (et) procedure. Results from traditional criteria suggested that the factor structure is similar across groups. The et procedure demonstrated minor model misspecifications. The author(s) 2020. | |
| Promoting Classroom Engagement Through the Use of an Online Student Response System: a Mixed Methods Analysis | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | ENGAGEMENT; ONLINE STUDENT RESPONSE SYSTEMS; SOCRATIVE; STATISTICS; | The use of online student response systems (osrss) is increasing within tertiary education providers, however, research investigating their potential to enhance student engagement is limited. The aim of the current study was to examine the impact of an osrs using an experimental crossover design. Quantitative data measuring student engagement was compared from pre- to post-intervention. A qualitative analysis was used to further investigate student perceptions of the osrs. The results from this study suggest that osrss may be appropriate tools to increase student engagement in undergraduate statistics classes. Despite no significant change in engagement scores observed when students were exposed to the osrs than when they were not, students appreciated the novelty of the osrs and perceived it to have had a positive impact on their learning experience. Suggestions for how to exploit the advantages of osrss and directions for further research are discussed. 2020, 2020 The author(s). Published with license by taylor and francis group, llc. | |

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | BIBLIOGRAPHY; EDUCATION; PUBLICATIONS; SCOPUS; VIETNAM; | Purpose: this study aimed to analyze the bibliographic characteristics and content of articles on education published in scopus-indexed journals by authors with vietnamese affiliations from 2009 to 2018. Methods: scopus was searched on july 6, 2019 using the search option "affiliation country, " with "vietnam or viet nam" as the country name, and "subject area" as "social sciences and education. " Results: a total of 193 articles were identified. They were classified by publication year, co-authors' country, affiliation, subarea, journal, and author. Content analysis of these articles demonstrated that the number of publications on education from vietnam in scopus increased rapidly during the last 10 years. The top five countries of co-authors were australia, the usa, new zealand, the uk, and the netherlands. The main research subfields were english-language teaching, pedagogy, and educational management. Conclusion: although vietnamese education researchers collaborated with colleagues in developed countries to publish papers, there was still a lack of articles discussing global trends in education, such as cross-border education, equity in education, and international assessment programs. 2020 Korean council of science editors. | |
| The Students’ Limitations in Solving a Problem With the Aid of Geogebra Software: a Case Study | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | DYNAMIC MATHEMATICS SOFTWARE; EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY; GEOGEBRA; POLYAS FOUR-STEP PROCESS; PROBLEM-SOLVING; PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY; | Currently, there is much dynamic math software. They help to provide the user with an intuitive mathematical environment. Also, thanks to the dynamic properties of the software, users can flexibly change mathematical forms and objects by pressing and dragging. Therefore, they have multiple opportunities for surveying, predicting, illustrating, or finding strategies for solving mathematical problems. Geogebra software is used in this study to find strategies for solving a problem, as geogebra integrates and serves many math disciplines. Concerning the math studies solving a problem with geogebra's support, this paper devotes particular attention to using polyas four-step process to a problem. It is a generalized scheme that can be applied to find solutions for all kinds of mathematics. The issue is how to exploit the strength of this dynamic math software if we use this scheme to find strategies for solving a problem. Our research content is to answer the questions: 1) how do students approach solving a math problem with the geogebra software? 2) What students mistakes or limitations can occur? Experimental research results with six student groups have shown that students have made some mistakes with geogebra in math problems and they do not know how to take advantage of this software to make it easier to find a solution to the problem. Based on the findings, we suggest several measures to show teachers and students how geogebra is used effectively. Copyright 2020 by authors, all rights reserved. | |
| Wage Earning Differentials by Field of Study: Evidence from Vietnamese University Graduates | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | DISCIPLINES; EARNINGS; FIELD OF STUDY; MAJORS; RETURNS; SWITCHING ENDOGENOUS REGRESSION; WAGE; | Using data from the 2018 labor force survey, this paper analyzes wage differentials by field of study among vietnamese university graduates. In contrast to previous findings, we find that many fields, even more technically and quantitatively oriented disciplines, such as engineering, science/math/computer science and business/finance, afford lower earnings than do the arts/humanities disciplines. The differences are statistically significant and, in many cases, large, even after controlling for other individual and regional characteristics. Also, the differences are greater among female than among male graduates. Our results shed light on the value of various types of human capital represented by the various disciplines. Such findings offer useful policy implications for policymakers and educational managers. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

| Student Perceptions of Technological Tools for Flipped Instruction: the Case of Padlet, Kahoot! and Cirrus | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITYAUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY | CIRRUS; FLIPPED CLASSROOM; KAHOOT!; PADLET; STUDENT PERCEPTIONS; TECHNOLOGIES IN LEARNING AND TEACHING; | Technological tools used in teaching and learning have been reported to influence their satisfaction, engagement and their continued effort in learning (roach, 2014). The present study, therefore, investigated students perceptions of technological use in a flipped classroom at university level through evaluation of three different web-based tools, using the lens of the technology acceptance model (tam) (davis, 1989; venkatesh & davis, 2000). These tools include a collaborative canvas tool (padlet), a live polling platform (kahoot!) And an annotation tool (cirrus). Results from focus group interviews show that most of the students had positive perceptions of the three technological tools targeted in this study. Nevertheless, using the tam model that draws on two indexes, namely usefulness and perceived ease of use, the findings revealed students mixed perceptions towards the three tools. Particularly, padlet was perceived to be useful for both independent and colloborative learning, but less easy to use when there was too much content. Kahoot! Was considered the most useful and easy to use for revision of learnt concepts. Finally, cirrus was easy to use, but less useful for creative tasks. The results are discussed in terms of the role of technological tools in flipped learning, and implications for technologically enhanced flipped instruction are suggested. 2020, University of wollongong.

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITYAUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY | BILINGUAL EDUCATION; BILINGUAL SCHOOL; CAPITAL; EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES; GLOCAL CAPITAL; WEBSITES; | This article examines vietnamese bilingual schools statements of educational outcomes on their websites. Data were gathered from websites of seven schools that were publicly accessible on the internet. The analysis suggests that the schools purported to provide students with different explicit and implicit outcomes related to language, accreditation, extracurricular experience, qualification and virtue, whereby portraying themselves as providers of linguistic, cultural, social and economic capital that was important for the students upward mobility. The schools, in responding to the social demands, claimed to include not only the issues of global significance, but also the globallocal balance in their education, and purported to provide students with a kind of glocal capital through their bilingual education. The schools discourse of glocal capitalthrough which they portrayed their ideal selfhowever may be merely a business tactic to attract potential clients. Further research hence may focus on parents and students voices about schools educational outcomes to draw a more comprehensive picture of the education market. 2017, 2017 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Enhancing Communication With Family Members in the Intensive Care Unit: a Mixed-methods Study | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NURSES BOARD OF VICTORIA LEGACYNURSES BOARD OF VICTORIA LEGACY | Background nurses in the intensive care unit are central to clinical care delivery and are often the staff members most accessible to family members for communication. Family members ratings of satisfaction with the intensive care unit admission are affected more by communication quality than by the level of care for the patient. Family members may feel that communication in the intensive care unit is inconsistent. Objectives to use a shared decision-making model to deliver a communication education program for intensive care unit nurses, evaluate the confidence levels of nurses who undertook the education, and examine changes in family members satisfaction with communication from intensive care unit nurses after the nurses received the education. Methods a mixed-methods design was used. Seventeen nurses and 81 family members participated. Results staff members were overall very confident with communicating with family members of critically ill patients. This finding was likely linked to staff members experience in the position, with 88% of nurses having more than 11 years experience. Family members were happy with care but dissatisfied with the environment. Conclusions environmental factors can negatively affect communication with family members in the intensive care unit. 2020 American association of critical-care nurses. | ||
| Pandemic, Social Distancing, and Social Work Education: Students Satisfaction With Online Education in Vietnam | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NURSES BOARD OF VICTORIA LEGACYNURSES BOARD OF VICTORIA LEGACY | COVID-19; ONLINE LEARNING; SOCIAL WORK EDUCATION; VIETNAM; | The covid-19 pandemic has tremendously impacted different aspects of public health and social life across countries. In vietnam, state-wide social distancing mandate has shifted the traditional face-to-face learning to online learning for at least two months, which created significant challenges for both social work educators and students, given the fact that most social work courses require the practice and direct interaction components, and many students have limited access to technology resources. This study aims to assess the level of immediate satisfaction of vietnamese social work students with online courses during the covid-19 pandemic. A total of 186 undergraduate-level social work students in a national univeristy in vietnam completed an online survey on qualtrics. The results show that students faced multiple problems with their participation in online courses due to the internet access quality, such as disrupted connection and low-quality sound. Although being unfamiliar with online learning, most students reported no major difficulty, and having support available for their online learning. Students level of satisfaction with face-to-face teaching was significantly higher than that of online teaching on all criteria. A long-term strategy is needed to improve interactive activities and practices when teaching social work online. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Determining the Feasibility and Effectiveness of Brief Online Mindfulness Training for Rural Medical Students: a Pilot Study | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | VAL LISHMAN HEALTH RESEARCH FOUNDATIONVAL LISHMAN HEALTH RESEARCH FOUNDATION | ONLINE MINDFULNESS TRAINING; RURAL MEDICAL EDUCATION; SELF-COMPASSION; STRESS MANAGEMENT; | Background: we sought to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of a mindfulness training program, delivered online to medical students at a rural clinical school. Methods: an 8-week online training program was delivered to penultimate-year medical students at an australian rural clinical school during 2016. Using a mixed methods approach, we measured the frequency and duration of participants' mindfulness meditation practice, and assessed changes in their perceived stress, self-compassion and compassion levels, as well as personal and professional attitudes and behaviours. Results: forty-seven participants were recruited to the study. 50% Of participants were practising mindfulness meditation at least weekly by the end of the 8-week program, and 32% reported practising at least weekly 4 months following completion of the intervention. There was a statistically significant reduction in participants' perceived stress levels and a significant increase in self-compassion at 4-month follow-up. Participants reported insights about the personal and professional impact of mindfulness meditation training as well as barriers to practice. Conclusions: the results provide preliminary evidence that online training in mindfulness meditation can be associated with reduced stress and increased self-compassion in rural medical students. More rigorous research is required to establish concrete measures of feasibility of a mindfulness meditation program. 2020 The author(s). | |

Text messages include tips and reminders to fill out the free application for federal student aid as well as college tips. Our multiple regression results suggest that although when the texting began did not appear to matter, the texting program increased enrollment and persistence in college. In addition, response rates were positively associated with enrollment and persistence. Finally, we find that the content of the messages themselves as well as individual characteristics affected response rates. 2019, 2019 Iste. | |
| Promoting Thai Pre-service English Teachers’ Reflective Ability Through Microteaching Lesson Study | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | EFL WRITING; ENGLISH TEACHERS; LESSON STUDY; REFLECTIVE TEACHING; TEACHING METHODOLOGY; THAI STUDENTS; | Reflective practice has been viewed as a means by which practitioners can develop a greater level of self-awareness about the nature and impact of their performance, which creates opportunities for professional growth and development. With its appealing benefits, reflective practice has been adopted as a foundation for many teacher-education programs worldwide. However, a few studies were conducted on how to improve the training for prospective english teachers in thailand although its english language education program has been reported to be problematic. With an effort to respond to the calls for developing learning opportunities to promote and enhance thai teachers' reflective attributes, this study reports on how a teacher-educator employed an adapted microteaching lesson study (mls) approach to engage 55 thai pre-service english teachers in reflections. The research instruments included a survey on their perceived benefits of repeating both the teaching and reflections on their teachings, oral and written reflections on their two teachings, teacher-educator's notes and a focus-group interview. Despite the presence of an insignificant level of skepticism and lack of confidence in their abilities to benefit from this instructional approach, the findings showed the considerable success of this teaching in facilitating these thai prospective teachers' understanding and practice to be reflective teachers. The success in this study is expected to provide teacher-educators, both in thailand and in other educational settings, with similar teaching and learning cultures, more insights into the construction of learning opportunities for enhancing prospective teachers' reflective ability by employing the mls approach. 2020 Asian e f l journal press.

| Culturally Sustaining Systemic Functional Linguistics Praxis in Science Classrooms | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | BILINGUAL EDUCATION; CULTURALLY SUSTAINING PEDAGOGY; SCIENCE INSTRUCTION; SYSTEMIC FUNCTIONAL LINGUISTICS; | The next generation science standards (ngss) call for students to exhibit an in-depth understanding of scientific inquiry practices, including direct observation, creative design thinking, and argumentation based on evidential learning. To support academic equity for multilingual learners, these new expectations require reconceptualization of science teacher education and classroom instruction, whereby emphasis is placed on incorporating the linguistic and cultural repertoires of learners through multimodal and open-ended learning activities. To support this shift in practices, this paper presents a culturally sustaining systemic functional linguistics (cs sfl) framework for science teachers and multilingual classrooms. Cs sfl praxis emphasizes three intersecting areas: language development, knowledge development, and cultural sustenance. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | All parents of eligible students with disabilities have the right to collaborate as equal members of educational teams developing their childrens individualized education programs (iep). However, culturally and linguistically diverse families typically experience barriers to collaboration with school professionals. In this paper, we describe findings from four focus group interviews with chinese, vietnamese, and haitian immigrants examining their participation and language access in their childrens iep meetings, as well as their perspectives on what would improve their iep meetings. Findings revealed that meaningful engagement was hampered by families limited access to information, educators lack of accountability, and limited opportunities for families to develop as advocates. Implications of the research addressing the within-meeting and between-meeting barriers are discussed. 2018 Taylor & francis. | ||
| The Relationship Between School Turnaround and Student Outcomes: a Meta-analysis | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | EDUCATIONAL POLICY; EDUCATIONAL REFORM; META-ANALYSIS; RESTRUCTURING; SCHOOL/TEACHER EFFECTIVENESS; | School turnaround has emerged as a predominant strategy to improve chronically low-performing schools, although the approach remains controversial. This meta-analysis synthesizes results from 35 studies to examine the relationship between school turnaround and various student outcomes. We find that school turnaround is associated with improved attendance, standardized test scores, and graduation rates. When separating the results by the different turnaround models, transformation, turnaround, and restart models are associated with improvements in student test scores. We find no evidence of a significant relationship between school closure or state turnaround conducted under no child left behind (nclb) waivers and student test scores. We describe how changes in organizational operations, human capital, and the governance and/or management of low-performing schools might have contributed to this observed relationship. 2020 Aera. | |
| Developing and Utilizing Employability Capitals: Graduates’ Strategies Across Labour Markets | , , | 2020 | BOOK |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | Graduate employability is a significant concern for most higher education institutions worldwide. During the last two decades, universities have attempted to implement their employability agendas to support their students to enhance employment outcomes. However, within today's globalized labour markets, employability has gone far beyond the notion of obtaining stable and permanent employment. This book explores graduates' experiences in developing and utilizing employability capitals for career development and success in different labour markets. In the chapters, the graduate contributors narrate and discuss how they negotiated their employability on the transitions across jobs, occupational sectors and labour markets. The chapters address key issues, including how employability is understood by graduates of different disciplines, at different career stages and in different contexts; how they develop and utilise such capitals along with strategies to negotiate their employability; and what can be done to move the higher education employability agenda forward. The book presents international insights and perspectives into transitions from education to work and career development across the labour markets, as well as calls for improving the graduate employability agenda. It is an invaluable resource for researchers and academics, university leaders, policymakers and students who are concerned about graduate employability. 2020 Selection and editorial matter, tran le huu nghia, thanh pham, micheal tomlinson, karen medica, christopher d.

| International Students Enacting Agency in Their Phd Journey | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | AGENCY; DOCTORAL SUPERVISION; HE; INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION; INTERNATIONAL DOCTORAL STUDENTS; | This study challenges the long-standing deficit discourse of international students. Applying agency theories, it explores six vietnamese doctoral students narratives of their candidature in an australian research-intensive university using data drawn from semi-structured interviews. The findings confirm the high level of agency that international students displayed in previous research and show new nuances. Needs-response agency is displayed in the way the students dealt with language for research purposes. Agency as struggle and resistance is manifest in the soft strategies, which may be culturally invisible through the western lens. Agency for becoming shows the transformation into a more confident and autonomous self. Pervading the other forms of agency, relational agency refers to the way these candidates effectively mobilised their families and communities, and maturated networks. The study expands understanding of international doctoral students abilities to successfully navigate their candidature. The findings have important implications for supervisors to further develop their expertise. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| The Emergence of Private Higher Education in a Communist State: the Case of Vietnam | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | COMMUNIST; DEMAND; DOI MOI; PRIVATE; STATE; VIETNAM; | Private higher education has become an integral part of higher education systems worldwide, including in vietnam. However, the details explaining the private higher education sector emergence in vietnam has hardly been addressed in the current literature. Most scholars that have mentioned this emergence in passing believed that vietnamese private universities emerged to cater to the rising higher education demand that was unmet by its public counterparts. However, interviews with senior policy-makers, founders of private universities, and archived documents contradict this explanation: private universities emerged when demand for higher education declined sharply in vietnam. Instead, our data point out that private higher education was part of the state-led political and economic reform. In general, we find that while the state set some uncompromised boundaries, it left ample space for private actors to take initiativesalthough a deeper analysis reveals that the state itself did not have a consensus view on where the censored line ends and where the free zone starts. Throughout this article, we argue that the notions of (public) demand vs. The states plan for higher education should be contextualized with sufficient care in the context of a planned economy like vietnams. 2020 Society for research into higher education. | |
| Love Acts and Revolutionary Praxis: Challenging the Neoliberal University Through a Teaching Scholars Development Program | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORKCITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK | ACADEMIC IDENTITIES; LEADERSHIP; TEACHING SCHOLAR PROGRAMS; | There has been significant interest in developing academics through teaching scholar development programs across the usa, canada, the uk, and more recently in australia. At their core, such programs develop academics across teaching scholarship, leadership, promotion, and award opportunities, where universities reap the benefits of developing such a cadre of leaders. This paper pays witness to one such a program in an australian university to highlight enactments of caring passionately. We use qualitative survey evaluation data, metaphor analysis and reflective practice to nuance the pleasures, passions and challenges of the lived experiences using phenomenological and metaphor lenses to describe our experiences. Metaphors provide powerful insights into the dimensions of experience as they open up how programs are perceived and experienced. Our paper disrupts traditional linear writing through rhizomatic, multivocal and multitextual encounters to challenge dominant authorial voicing. The academic identity work and emotional work required in the program is unfolded through evolving, experiencing and reflecting on the program to inform design and highlight what we have come to (re)value in our academic work when we come together to learn, share, and lead. We forge ways to be and become with and against neoliberal agendas that have choked the soul of the university to evolve rich spaces and practices of/for reciprocity and kindness where not only learning can thrive, but where love actsa much needed revolutionary praxis for our time. 2019, 2019 Herdsa. | |

| Implementing Task-based Language Teaching (tblt) to Teach Grammar in English Classes in China: Using Design-based Research to Explore Challenges and Strategies | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORKCITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK | CHINA; DESIGN-BASED RESEARCH; ENGLISH; GRAMMAR INSTRUCTION; TASK-BASED LANGUAGE TEACHING; | This paper aimed to develop culturally appropriate tblt practices to enable teachers and students in china to employ tblt to teach grammar in english classes. The study deployed design-based research with a total of 122 students at a chinese university. The mixed-method study utilised questionnaires with 122 students, interviews with 10 students as two focus groups and autiotaoped group discussions of the focus groups. The findings disclosed several mismatches between teaching and learning traditions in china and the principles of tblt: (1) the students failed to acquire implicit knowledge while tblt aimed to enable students to understand what was not explicitly described; (2) the students depended on the teachers presentation while tblt required students to learn independently; (3) the students were reluctant to work in group while tblt emphasised student-centred learning in group work; and (4) the students required related grammatical input while tblt required students to obtain holistic acquisition of knowledge. To address these mismatches, main adjustments of tblt were made: adding grammatical input, encouraging the students to focus on form, to discuss grammar matters and to provide mutual corrective feedback, and emphasising the teachers participation into tasks as a facilitator. The study developed new tools that could assist teachers and students to adopt tblt in a non-western context. 2018, 2018 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Tiếng Anh | CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORKCITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK | GROUNDED THEORY; LEADING CHANGE; PROFESSIONAL COLLABORATION; PROFESSIONAL LEARNING; TEACHER LEADERSHIP; | Teacher professional learning has been recognised as a critical contributor to improving teaching quality and securing student learning. Leadership at different levels is important for professional learning in schools. Job-embedded teacher professional learning occurs in collaborative activities that include co-teaching, action research, and initiation and implementation of curricular and instructional change. The current article conceptualises a non-linear, iterative, and recursive process of teachers leading initiatives collaboratively in schools. This conceptualisation was based on an analysis of 38 interviews with teachers and school leaders, field notes from 50 visits to four singapore primary schools, and email exchanges. The process has three stagessharing, improving, and spreading. In this process, affective support is central in providing social reinforcement to keep the team motivated to revise and move a change initiative forwards. The article enhances understanding of teacher collaboration process for change in schools, through which teacher leadership for professional learning is evidenced. 2020, 2020 International professional development association (ipda). | |
| Aerial Bombardment and Educational Attainment | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORKCITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK | AERIAL BOMBARDMENT; HUMAN CAPITAL; VIETNAM WAR; | This paper provides evidence that the allied bombing of vietnam, the longest and heaviest aerial bombardment in history, imposed detrimental ramifications on educational attainment and future labor market outcomes of school-age individuals. By exploiting the plausibly exogenous district-by-cohort variation in bomb destruction under a difference-in-differences framework, we find that an increase in bomb intensity leads to significantly fewer educational years completed and lower future earnings for school-age children exposed to the bombardment. We further show that both the supply-side factors (inadequate school security and the lack of teachers) and the demand-side factors (residential casualties, restricted access to healthcare, damaged properties and increased reliance on welfare assistance) could be potential mechanisms driving the long-term consequences of aerial bombardment. Our findings underline the importance of conflict prevention and post-conflict reconstruction in promoting sustainable development. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| A Case Study of Teaching Real-world Problems Related to Exponential and Logarithmic Equations to Develop Students’ Problem-solving Competency | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORKCITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK | EXPONENTIAL AND LOGARITHMIC EQUATIONS; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; PROBLEM-SOLVING; REAL-WORLD PROBLEMS; | Today, the task of developing competencies, including the ability to solve problems for students, becomes very important. In mathematics education, teaching mathematical problems with effective content can be considered as a teaching method that brings a very positive effect on the education, training and capacity development for students. This study aimed to promote students' ability to resolve real-world problems through teaching exponential and logarithmic equations. An experimental sample consisted of 40 12th grade students at a continuing education centre in vietnam. The primary instructional activities designed to develop these students' resolving capacities included warm-up, experience, practice, reinforcement and expansion. The data collected were attached to the student's assignments as well as worksheets and qualitatively analyzed to assess students' ability to deal with problems by components such as understanding the problem, acquiring information from practical situations; converting information from real-world situations on mathematical models; searching strategies for solving mathematical models; implementing a solution strategy to find results; and moving from results of solving mathematical models to solutions of real-world problems. Experimental results showed that students considerably increased their ability to cope with problems with logarithmic and exponential equations. Besides, concerning the spirit and learning attitude, students became active, optimistic and self-conscious in the problem-solving stages of the teaching process. Additionally, the implications of showing the relationship between mathematics and practice were drawn to emphasize the real-life applicability of the science of mathematics. 2020 By authors. | |
| Post-study Work for International Graduates in Australia: Opportunity to Enhance Employability, Get a Return on Investment or Secure Migration? | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | DEAKIN UNIVERSITYDEAKIN UNIVERSITY | AUSTRALIA; EMPLOYABILITY; INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; INTERNATIONAL GRADUATES; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; MIGRATION; POST-STUDY WORK; | New abstract: in a competitive international education market, the opportunity to gain post-study work experience in the host country is one of the key drivers of international students decision making and critical to education export, especially in top destination countries, such as australia, canada, the uk and us. Understanding the impacts of post-study work for international graduates is crucial forboth host countries international student recruitment and employment agendas and their ethical commitment to delivering on promise to the international cohort. Drawing on analysis of government policies and in-depth interview data, this study provides evidence about the effects of the post-study work policy in australia. The overarching view from international graduates indicates that the temporary graduate visa does not seem to provide them with a competitive advantage in the australian labour market as employers either are unclear about this visa or hesitate to recruit those on this visa. However, the visa brings multiple side benefits, including the chance to round off theiremployability skills, improve their english proficiency, and get a return on investment in overseas study. Many international graduates see the post-study work visa as a pathway to permanent residency despite the fact that visa reforms have broken the education-migration nexus. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ARTICLES; EDUCATIONAL SCIENCE; IMRAD STRUCTURE; VIETNAM; | The introduction, methods, results, and discussion (imrad structure) is a structure used by many journals and publishers in its publications since the early twentieth century. This research aims to survey and analyze some prestigious open access journals in the field of educational science in the world and in vietnam on the use of imrad structure in presenting research results. We selected 05 open journals with the highest if in the 2018 scopus list and 05 prestigious journals in this field in vietnam to conduct analysis of the articles in the latest 03 issues of these journals. The results of the survey of manuscript draft requirements and the frequency of articles written according to the imrad structure of the above journals show that: the imrad structure is commonly used in the articles in the field of educational science in the world. However, in vietnam, there is no journal that fully meets the contents compared to the basic imrad structure. The analysis of the content of articles published in journals in vietnam shows that the weakest point of the researches is that the research methodology section is almost absent. Finally, we propose some solutions to improve scientific editing in educational science journals in vietnam to meet international publishing standards. 2020 The author(s). | |

This study has considered wages and other benefits (wb), training and development (td), working environment (we) and working motivation (wm) as motivational factors, and proposed a structural model of the impact of motivational factors on the work results of lecturers at vnu. The empirical analysis used data from the survey data of 321 university lecturers. Comprehensive, valid, and reliable tools (spss 26 and smartpls 3.0 Software) are used to evaluate rigorous statistical tests including convergence validity, discriminatory validity, reliability, and average variance extracted to analyze and verify the gathered data, and the hypotheses developed. The result of path analysis shows that four motivational factors constitute a structured system with different degrees of influence on the work results of lecturers. There is also a positive relationship between the motivational factors and the work results of lecturers. As a result, it can be concluded that all hypotheses developed are supported. Several recommendations are further suggested to improve the performance of lecturers at vnu. The author(s). | |
| Driving Enrolment Intention Through Social Media Engagement: a Study of Vietnamese Prospective Students | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | BRAND IMAGE; CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT; ELECTRONIC WORD OF MOUTH; SOCIAL MEDIA; | Social media platforms provide prospective international students with ready access and exposure to information relevant to international higher education institutions and their respective brand images. We examined the extent to which social media engagement and electronic word-of-mouth (ewom) activities shape prospective students perceived brand image of institutions and, subsequently, their enrolment intention. Findings from a sample of 445 prospective students in vietnam indicate the indirect effect of social media engagement on enrolment intention via ewom-seeking activities and perceived brand image. Compared with their postgraduate counterparts, prospective undergraduates perception of an institutions brand image is more strongly influenced by their ewom-seeking activities on social media. In contrast, the direct influence of perceived brand image on enrolment intention is stronger for prospective postgraduate students. The findings from this study enrich the higher education literature and have implications for higher education providers in relation to developing engagement strategies with prospective students through social media platforms. 2020 Herdsa. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | The outbreak of covid-19 at the beginning of 2020 has heavily influenced education all around the world. In vietnam, educational institutes were suspended, and distance learning was conducted to ensure students learning process, with distance learning occurring mainly via video conferencing tools (vtcs). The purpose of this paper is to provide data on vietnamese students acceptance of using vcts in distance learning during the covid-19 pandemic through an extended technology acceptance model (tam) and structural equation modeling (sem) method. This study used the tam of venkatesh and davis. The questionnaire was designed based on venkatesh and davis and salloum et al.S scale. An online survey with snowball sampling was selected in april. The final dataset consisted of 277 valid records. This data descriptor presented descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation), internal consistency (cronbachs alpha), reliability and validity measures (composite reliability, average value extracted test,) and factor loading of items of eight factors: output quality, computer playfulness, subjective norm, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude towards to use, behavioral intention to use, and actual system to use. Results indicated that external factors such as subjective norm and computer playfulness had a significant impact on most tam constructs. Furthermore, output quality was found to have a positive influence on students perceived usefulness and acceptance of vcts in distance learning. 2020 By the authors.

Nevertheless, we know very little about who owns private universities, or what their management models look like. Interviews with institutional leaders, policy-makers, and the analysis of archived policy documents reveal that ownership models of vietnamese private universities are considerably diverse. In general, almost all ownership models that exist in worldwide private higher education sectorsi.E., Venture, enterprise, shareholder, and foreignare reflected in the case of vietnam. However, we highlight that business corporations own and manage many of vietnams private universities. Our data also finds a parallel between the development of higher education privatization and the states persistent efforts to keep collective ownershipa communist ideology signaturein practice. We conclude the article with a discussion on how ownership diversity in private higher education reflects the remarkable changesmore specifically the growing pluralismin vietnams political economy. 2020, International association of universities. | |
| A Human Rights-based Approach in Implementing Sustainable Development Goal 4 (quality Education) for Ethnic Minorities in Vietnam | , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS; ETHNIC MINORITIES; MULTI-CULTURAL EDUCATION; QUALITY EDUCATION; SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS; | Seventeen sustainable development goals (sdg) by the united nations in its 2030 agenda have been nationalized and implemented in vietnam. One of the country's priorities is making educational provision accessible to all of its residents, especially for marginalized groups, while enforcing their human rights. In this context, this article examines the implementation of sdg4 (quality education) in combination with the practice of human rights for ethnic minorities in vietnam. With access to jurisprudence, this research provides a detailed assessment of the compatibility between sdg targets and the legal rights to education of ethnic minorities. Additionally, this research employs an exploratory method to investigate the four major conditions for the implementation of quality education for ethnic minorities, namely legal-political, economic, socio-cultural factors, and participation pride. We also investigate three main barriers that hinder sdg4 implementation and human rights practices, namely child labor, language, and gender inequality. The contribution of this study is necessary for establishing more informed strategies and policies towards sustainable development in education for multi-ethnic countries. 2020 By the authors. | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CHALLENGES; CONFUCIAN VALUES; PEER OBSERVATION OF TEACHING; PEER RELATIONSHIP; REFLECTION; | This paper discusses academics perceptions of challenges during the implementation of peer observation of teaching (pot) for promoting teachers reflection and teaching improvement. This qualitative case study involved 11 academics teaching english at a university in vietnam. Data were analysed inductively and thematically. Several challenges were identified: limited learning from observing junior peer teaching and junior peers feedback, uncritical feedback from peers without closeness, lack of sensitivity in giving feedback, and limited time for pot. These findings suggest that a strong peer relationship in a confucian culture appears to be key for successful pot. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| How to Forecast the Students’ Learning Outcomes Based on Factors of Interactive Activities in a Blended Learning Course | , , , | 2020 | CONFERENCE PAPER |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | BLENDED LEARNING; FORECAST STUDENTS' LEARNING OUTCOMES; LEARNING ACTIVITIES; LEARNING ANALYTICS;; | This paper summarizes the research results of identifying the influencing factors in the online learning phase of a blended learning course. From such factors, we propose a model for predicting student outcomes. In our study, we have conducted several models in order to predict the student's learning outcomes, using a course of 231 participants. Obtained data from the logs file of an lms system is analyzed using learning analytics and machine learning techniques, and the results propose that the four factors are the number of views, the number of posts, the number of forum views, and the number of on-time submitted assignments impact on the student's learning outcomes. For the forecast of the final exam grade based on the results of the formative assessment tests, bayesian ridge is the most accurate among the four conducted models (linear regression, knr, svm, bayesian ridge). Our study can be a useful material for lecturers and course designers in effectively organizing blended learning courses. 2020 Acm. | |

Methods: clinical follow up and qpcr based respiratory, gastrointestinal and vaginal pathogen carriage before and after travel were prospectively assessed in a cohort of medical students departing from marseille, france. Results: 134 students were included. 73.9%, 38.8% And 5.0% Of students reported gastrointestinal, respiratory and vaginal symptoms, respectively. The acquisition rate of enteroaggregative escherichia coli (eaec) and enteropathogenic e. Coli (epec) was 53% and 41%, respectively. The acquisition of respiratory viruses was low but associated with persisting symptoms, while bacterial acquisition ranged from 3.3% For streptococcus pyogenes to 15.0% For haemophilus influenzae. Gardnerella vaginalis and atopobium vaginae acquisition rates were 7.7% And 14.3% Respectively. Five students (5.1%) Had molecular quantification criteria for bacterial vaginosis on return. Conclusion: this preliminary study demonstrates that besides the known risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory infections and associated changes in intestinal and respiratory microbiota, medical students abroad may also experience changes in vaginal microbiota leading, in some cases, to clinical symptoms or the acquisition of bacterial vaginosis, which may be asymptomatic. 2019 Elsevier ltd | |

| Approach to Realistic Mathematics Education in Teaching Mathematics: a Case of Cosine Theorem Geometry 10 | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | COSINE THEOREM; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION IN VIETNAM; MATHEMATICS IN CONTEXT; REALISTIC MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; RME; RME-BASED TEACHING; TEACHING GEOMETRY; | Increasing the practicality in mathematics education has been a trend of most countries in the world. With this trend, students find that mathematics is not an abstract subject far removed from reality. One of the pioneers in teaching mathematics to be associated with real-life is hans freudenthal-dutch mathematics educator. He developed the theory of realistic mathematics education (rme) with the idea that teaching mathematics must start a realistic situation; today this theory has been widely applied not only in the netherlands but also in many parts of the world. In order to approach rme into mathematics education in vietnam, we developed the rme-based teaching model and conducted research with the teaching of cosine theorem-geometry 10 to verify its feasibility. The results showed that if the teacher used rme based teaching, students could learn cosine theorem by abstracting and generalizing from a real situation; thereby, they found that mathematics is very close to life, creating a motivation for learning mathematics for them. From this, we can assert that teaching with the rme approach meets the goal of mathematics education in vietnam in the present and upcoming period in the 21st century, and it needs to be studied and widely applied in mathematics teaching in vietnam. 2020 Ijstr. | |
| Reflection as Formative Assessment of Computational Thinking in Elementary Grades | , | 2020 | CONFERENCE PAPER |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | Capturing how students develop computational thinking is critical to integrating computer science education into school settings. This paper examines the use of flipgrid, a student-facing video platform, to invite students to reflect on their programming artifacts and document their computing language and practices. Data sources include 63 reflection videos and 41 programming projects in two fourth grade classes. We apply discourse analysis and find that student displayed enriched discourse in vocabulary and practices, but not cs concepts, in response to explicit prompts. Frequencies of vocabulary use and connection to programming narratives in reflections were strongly correlated with programming artifact scores (overall score; sub-scores in user interactivity, mechanics, and computer science constructs). We discuss implications for leveraging reflection tools in computer science instruction in k-12 classrooms. 2020 International society of the learning sciences (isls). All rights reserved. | ||
| The Correlation Between Internal Quality Assurance and the Formation of Quality Culture in Vietnam Higher Education: a Case Study in Ho Chi Minh City | , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | INTERNAL QUALITY ASSURANCE; MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS OF COVARIANCE (MANCOVA); QUALITY CULTURE; | Implementing internal quality assurance activities is an indispensable condition to form a quality culture in higher education institutions in vietnam which contributes to a fundamental and comprehensive renovation of vietnamese higher education. The purpose of this research was to assess the correlation of internal quality assurance on the formation of quality culture throughout the types of higher education institutions in vietnam. A group of 222 teachers from 8 higher education institutions (4 public higher education institutions and 4 private higher education institutions) in ho chi minh city participated in a survey. The questionnaire included three groups which are internal quality assurance activities, awareness of individuals, and organizational culture. The results showed that the correlation between internal quality assurance and the formation of quality culture is different between the two types of higher education institutions. With the autonomy mechanism in higher education institution administration, the level of application of guaranteed the internal quality assurance activities is associated with quality culture developing in private higher education institutions higher than public higher education institutions. 2020 The author(s).

| Academic Staff Quality and the Role of Quality Assurance Mechanisms: the Vietnamese Case | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | ACADEMIC STAFF; AUTONOMY AND ACCOUNTABILITY; HIGHER EDUCATION GOVERNANCE MODELS; QUALITY ASSURANCE SYSTEM; | Quality assurance in higher education has been introduced in vietnam to improve the quality of the entire sector. Academics are considered key players in the reform plan of the vietnamese government. This paper discusses the development of the vietnamese quality assurance approach in higher education reform and how it could be further developed to improve higher education based on an analysis of current practices related to academic staff development. Data collected from documentation and in-depth interviews with thirty-six participants from three universities have been analysed for patterns and themes. The results indicate that assuring the academic staff quality in vietnam is an urgent need. The role of the quality assurance approach, however, seems to be limited in this aspect. Therefore, it is suggested that the vietnam quality assurance policies be re-visited to ensure that minimum standards are maintained and to promote institutional commitment to improve the quality of higher education. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

This study examined the experiences of chinese and vietnamese families of youth with disabilities toward transition planning. Results suggested that participants were eager to be engaged in the transition planning and valued the importance of transition planning activities. They wanted to ensure that their youth were equipped with skills, so they could lead a successful and independent adult life. However, schools provided little to no information regarding the transition planning process. This lack of information prevented them from being actively involved. Implications for future research and practice to enhance partnership between schools and diverse families in the development of transition planning are discussed.

| Schooling from the Classroom to the State: Understanding Schools as Geopolitical Sites | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | EDUCATION; GEOPOLITICS; NATIONAL SECURITY; SCHOOL; | In this paper, we make a case for situating the school as a geopolitical site. The geopolitical functions of schools and schooling have long been investigated by geographers: forming national citizens, promoting geostrategic discourses, and disciplining populations, to name a few. However, we advocate an approach that is outward looking, examining the school not just as a space where these functions are carried out by the state, but as a site where institutional structure, educators, and students exercise agency in complicating the actual implementation of state geopolitical aims. We do this by examining two cases where public schooling has been leveraged by western states in the service of the post-9/11 securitization of muslim students in the united kingdom and france. We argue that these two cases illustrate that schools can be examined not just as containers for state policy, but as explanatory moments in their own right in understanding state geopolitical strategy.

This discussion has focussed overwhelmingly on the higher education sector but recently has begun to be extended to vocational and training education (vet). We enter this emergent debate by addressing the finding that when international vet students studying in australia are interviewed about their rights experience, they are prone to focus on their status as consumers of the commodities they purchase in order to gain a high-quality international education experience. Given this response, we examine how australian officials provide for international students consumer rights, analyse the views of international students studying in australia, and explain why the need to provide for the consumer rights of these sojourners is bound to remain a perennial concern for host governments and institutions. 2019, 2019 The vocational aspect of education ltd. | |

Academic staff in vietnam, who traditionally have low numbers of international publications, have thus been pushed to improve their competencies in order to meet the new requirements for research productivity. However, we have little understanding of the factors influencing international publication as perceived by vietnamese academic staff. This study aims to fill the gap by using the delphi method. Academic staff with at least one international publication were invited, via purposeful sampling, to participate in a two-round delphi survey. The survey revealed 14 key factors, which were further classified into three dimensions: "policy-related factors," "capability-related factors," and "networking-related factors". These factors were the key determinants in the success of international publishing, according to the study participants. The findings provide implications for policymakers and university leaders for enhancing the research capacities of vietnamese universities, forming a basis for the sustainable development of the higher education sector in vietnam. 2020 By the authors. | |

By considering located slte and community learning, this qualitative study was conducted to explore how preservice teachers of english as a foreign language learned to teach in response to learning needs in a vietnamese city. Data sources for the study were written assignments produced by preservice teachers and in-depth interviews with them. Through their engagement in the local community, the preservice teachers identified nine groups of adult learners who were not able to gain access to english learning in the formal schooling system. Those learners sought to learn english not only to meet their personal and professional needs but also to contribute to socioeconomic development of the local community. Based on the findings regarding the local learners needs and characteristics, the preservice teachers developed pedagogical practices appropriate to each specific group of learners and suggested that university-based slte programmes should embrace diverse learners and community-based teacher learning. The study substantiates the concept of located slte and offers some implications for slte in response to local needs. 2019 Tesol international association | ||

Objective: to evaluate the impact of an agriculture and nutrition behavior change communication (bcc) intervention implemented through community-based childcare centers on the nutrient adequacy of diets of children living in food-insecure settings in malawi. Methods: a cluster randomized trial was undertaken in 60 community-based childcare centers, including 1248 children aged 3-6 y. Nutrient intakes were estimated using interactive, multipass 24-h recall. Dietary adequacy was estimated through the probability of adequacy (pa) and mean probability of adequacy (mpa) of 11 micronutrients. Impacts were assessed by difference-in-difference (did) estimates, adjusted for geographic clustering and child age and sex. Results: intervention groups were similar for most baseline characteristics. Loss to follow-up was low (7% over a 12-mo period) and participation in the intervention was high (>90% enrollment and 80% attendance during the 5 d before the survey). Positive impacts were found for the pa of several individual micronutrient intakes: vitamin a [did: 9 percentage points (pp), se 3 pp], vitamin c (14 pp, se 3 pp), riboflavin (11 pp, se 3 pp), zinc (8 pp, se 3 pp), and for the mpa for the 11 nutrients considered (5 pp, se 1 pp). These impacts were driven by effects on younger children (aged 3-4 y). Conclusions: using a preschool platform to implement a nutrition-sensitive bcc intervention is an effective strategy to improve the adequacy of micronutrient intake of preschool children in food-insecure settings.

| Enhancing Mathematical Communication in the Classroom: a Case Study | , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | MATHEMATICAL COMMUNICATION; MATHEMATICAL COMPETENCE; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; TEACHING FUNCTION; | Mathematical communication competence was mentioned the first time in the mathematics curriculum of vietnam, which was published in 2018. It includes different skills such as listening, reading, presenting, expressing mathematical ideas, and knowing how to use mathematical language to communicate, discuss interaction with other people. The problem is how to organize teaching to promote mathematical communication. In 2004, radford and demers based on the theory of zones of proximal development [12] to develop a teaching strategy called the fourth strategy [9]. This teaching strategy has seven steps; it provides groups of the student with different activities to discuss, exchange, review their learning products. We have adopted this teaching strategy in a teaching situation about the concept of function in junior high school in vietnam. Twelve students who participated in our study case worked in pairs. This teaching process focused on each group of two students reviewing products of another and basing on comments from other groups to improve their products. Furthermore, our teaching situation puts students in front of the various representations of function and thus enhances the use of mathematical language and mathematical communication for students. The results of our study showed that the teaching strategy of radford and demers increased students' mathematical communication. Lessons drawn from the study are that this strategy is really an effective teaching method if teachers assign open problems that stimulate the curiosities of students; in the classroom, they feel free and confident in discussion; if these conditions are met, students who learn in this approach will acquire and reinforce the knowledge as a result of a mathematical communication process.

| Ageing Well in a Foreign Land: Group Memberships Protect Older Immigrants’ Wellbeing Through Enabling Social Support and Integration | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | INTEGRATION; NEW GROUP MEMBERSHIPS; OLDER IMMIGRANTS; SOCIAL IDENTITY; WELLBEING; | Despite the numerous challenges of ageing in a foreign land, many older immigrants are fairly resilient and report experiencing good wellbeing. The key question that the present paper addresses is how this is achieved. Drawing on frameworks from cross-cultural and social identity literatures, the present study proposes and tests a model of serial multiple mediation that identifies possible mechanisms supporting the wellbeing of older immigrants who have resided in the host country for some time. In this model, it is predicted that new group memberships acquired post-migration enable access to social support that in turn provides the basis for perceived integration, which enhances wellbeing. This model was tested in a survey study with 102 older people, whose mean age was 80.3 Years and who had migrated to australia from asian, european, and central and south american countries on average 36 years previously. The survey assessed cultural identity, social group memberships acquired post-migration, perceived social support, perceived integration and wellbeing. Results supported the hypothesised model, indicating that joining new heritage culture and wider groups in australia post-migration provided a platform for social support and integration, which enhanced life satisfaction and reduced loneliness. The implications of these findings for theory and adapting successfully to both migration and ageing are discussed. Copyright the author(s), 2020. Published by cambridge university press. | |

Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | DEVELOPING COUNTRY; GENDER GAP; RURAL AREA; SDGS; SOCIAL DISPARITIES; SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS; STEM EDUCATION; | United nations sustainable development goal 4, namely quality education, has highlighted major challenges for all nations to ensure inclusive and equitable quality access to education, facilities for children and young adults. The sdg4 is even more important for developing nations as receiving proper education or vocational training, especially in science and technology, means a foundational step in improving other aspects of their citizens lives. However, the extant scientific literature about stem education still lacks focus on developing countries, even more in rural areas. Using a dataset of 4967 observations of junior high school students from a rural area in a transition economy, the article employed the bayesian approach to identify the association between gender, socio-economic status, and students stem academic achievements, which were measured by the average score of their most recent 45-minute standard school tests in stem subjects: maths, physics, chemistry (and biology where applicable). The results reported that gender had little association with stem academic achievements. However, female students appeared to have achieved better results than their male counterparts when their parents have non-manual jobs. Families with better economic status, parents with a high level of education, or non-manual jobs were associated with better study results. Also, students with zero or more than two siblings were correlated with lower study results than those with only one sibling. These results provided important implications for policymakers to provide women with opportunities for better education and maintain family size so the parents can provide their resources to each child equally. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |
| Ict Integration in Developing Competence for Pre-service Mathematics Teachers: a Case Study from Six Universities in Vietnam | , , , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | ICT INTEGRATION; MATHEMATICS; PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS; TEACHING COMPETENCE; | Competence structure that pre-service teachers need to develop to become a future teacher has been defined since the 1930s. For pre-service mathematics teachers, their competence has its own characteristics. Ict integration in developing competence for pre-service mathematics teachers has been been proved to be effective in many previous studies. In vietnam, the ministry of education and training (moet) has recommended the use of ict to enhance teaching-learning activities in schools and universities, therefore, there have been many studies on ict intergration at different educational levels. However, there are only a few studies on the use ict integration in developing competence for pre-service mathematics teachers. This paper presents results from a research on the feasibility of ict integration in developing competence of vietnamese pre-service mathematics teachers. The research was conducted by surveying on a randomly selected of 297 pre-service mathematics teachers and 40 mathematics lecturers in six universities which provide mathematics training programs. Results show that despite of the availability of technologies, ict integration in training pre-service teachers is still limited. In addition, ict integration in teaching activities of mathematics teachers is not really effective because the levels of their ict skills are very different. Pre-service mathematics teachers have the ability to use ict equipment, and good accessibility to learning systems, but their use of the learning management systems (lms) is limited. This study can be a reference for future studies to test the effective of ict integration in training pre-service teachers when designing activities to develop feasibly and effectively their competence.

Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; MATHEMATICS TEACHING METHOD; PRACTICAL SITUATION; THE REAL-LIFE CONTEXT IN MATHEMATICS; VIETNAM; | In the context of fundamental and radical reform of education and training in vietnam, the educational goals are changing towards students' competencies instead of knowledge and skills for students as in the past. Vietnam's mathematics curriculum is going to innovate after 2018. Mathematical education constructs the connection between mathematical ideas, between mathematics and other subjects, and between mathematics and real life. This article investigates two significant issues in mathematics teaching in vietnam: the purpose of learning mathematics among vietnamese pupils and mathematics teaching methods concerning reality. Based on the findings from these questions, the article proposes some recommendations for mathematics teaching regarding the methods and appropriate extent to which teachers should connect mathematics to the real world in the context of rapid science and technology development as well as the adjustments to the current mathematical content at schools. Also, this article presents some examples of exploring practical content problems and designing real-life contexts in mathematics teaching to develop students' competency in vietnam. The researchers also suggest that vietnam's national mathematics curriculum needs reforming to keep up with the pace of development in the field of information and communication in the country. 2020 The authors and ijlter.Org.

In a quantitative study involving nearly 72,000 undergraduate students in 12 countries, brooks (2016) found that 96% owned a smartphone and 93% had a laptop. 93%, 46%, And 41% of these students considered laptops, smartphones, and tablets as important or very important to their academic success respectively. However, studies on attitudes towards the use of mobile technologies for language learning have produced mixed results and were generally divided by the positive-negative line without looking at specific perspectives held by learners and how to facilitate learning for those with different attitudes. The current study adopted design-based research and collected data from 57 tertiary tesol teachers from 46 vietnamese universities over two years using a survey, interview, pre-test, and post-test as well as records of app uses to shed light on perspectives towards mall(mobile assisted language learning). Findings revealed five different attitudes towards self-directed learning with mobile technologies and proposed various strategies to facilitate learner groups with different attitudes. 2020, Call-ej.

This article explores the extent to which a set of locally produced english textbooks in vietnam have oriented towards the english as an international language (eil)-informed pedagogy and prepared students to use english for intercultural communication. The findings indicate that despite the fact that international communication may involve abroad spectrum of global english users, the books tend to focus merely on preparing students to use english for communication with anglophone english users, thus only partially meeting the learners multiple communicative needs in the real world. Our findings highlight the importance of moving towards an eil orientedapproach in elt materials development and use, as well as pro-moting discourses of multilingualism and globalization, and avoiding ideological biases. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | CHILD MIGRATION; CHINA; PUBLIC EDUCATION SPENDING; SCHOOL FEES; URBANIZATION; | The barriers faced by chinese rural-urban migrants to access social services, particularly education, in host cities could help explain why the majority of them choose to leave their children behind. We identified the causal impacts of school fees by instrumenting for it with unexpected shocks to the city's public education spending. Our findings suggest that higher fees deter migrant workers from bringing their children with them, especially their daughters, reduce the number of children they bring, and increase educational remittances to rural areas for the children left behind. Increases in school fees mostly affect vulnerable migrant workers and could have stronger impacts during an economic crisis. These findings hold for different model specifications and robustness checks. 2020 Hai-anh h. Dang, yang huang, harris selod, published by sciendo. | |

Preschool education is the first level of education in the national education system with the specific requirements on professionalism as well as the labor characteristics of preschool teachers. The goal of this study is to apply projection equations based on understanding the situation of the vietnamese preschool teachers as well as the number of graduates, retired teachers, and the number of children to acquire the projection results of the preschool teachers needed for vietnam in the period 2017-2027. The results indicated that the current preschool teachers did not meet the requirements of the education system in terms of quantity. This deficiency might be likely to last for the next ten years and cause many consequences for vietnamese education if there were no solutions to human educational resources. The result of the projection problem in vietnam was an experience lesson that should be considered in asia with distinctive socio-cultural characteristics. 2020 Horizon research publishing.

| Enhancing Creative and Critical Thinking Skills of Students in Mathematics Classrooms: an Experimental Study of Teaching the Inequality in High Schools | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | CREATIVE AND CRITICAL THINKING; INEQUALITY; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; PROVING AN INEQUALITY; | Teaching mathematics in high schools not only provides knowledge to solve problems or apply them into practice but also trains the students' ability to think mathematically. Therefore, in order to promote the students' mathematical thinking skills, teachers need to involve students in learning activities, help them train and develop their thinking. The purpose of this study was to enhance creative and critical thinking skills for 10th-grade students through teaching inequality topics. The experimental class had 41 students and was taught with activities of proving an inequality to enhance critical and creative thinking skills; while the control class consisted of 35 students and they approached conventionally. The qualitative method was used to evaluate students' creative and critical thinking skills for two types of exercises, namely, proving an inequality and finding the maximum value of a function. The findings showed that students in the experimental class showed a better ability to prove inequalities than students in the control class, and they also presented more solutions for a problem proving the inequality.

| Gender Equity at Last: a National Study of Medical Students Considering a Career in Rural Medicine | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | GENDER; RURAL CLINICAL SCHOOL; RURAL INTENTION; RURAL WORKFORCE; | Background: the rural medical workforce internationally suffers from a significant imbalance between male- and female- identifying practitioners. Not only do male doctors outnumber female doctors, but additionally female doctors work fewer hours than their male counterparts. This has health implications for rural communities. In response, in australia, rural clinical schools (rcss) are a national training strategy to increase the number of graduates entering the rural medical workforce. It has been observed that rcss attract a greater number of female students than male students. However, the future work intentions of male versus female rcs students is not known. This paper therefore asked whether male and female rcs students have equivalent intent for future rural practice. Methods: participants were all students who attended rcss from 2015 to 2017, who completed an exit survey that gathered data on demographic, experiential and intentional variables. Univariate analyses examined differences between the sexes. A multivariate model was constructed to determine the independent predictors for rural intention. Results: there were 2017 respondents across the 3 years, of whom 937 identified as male, and 1138 identified as female. In univariate analysis, female-identifying students had significantly higher rural intention than male-identifying students. There were no other sex-based differences in age, rural background, overall perception of support, and overall excellence of clinical education whilst in rcs. However, in multivariate analysis, sex was not a significant predictor for rural work intention, whereas older age, rural background, and first preference for rcs were all predictive of increased rural intent, as expected from the literature. There were no differences between male and female students in their perceptions of the overall support and the clinical education provided by rcs. Conclusion: we conclude from this national study that sex is not an independent predictor for future rural work intention among rcs students. Considering the disproportionate number of female students entering rcs, this is reassuring for ultimately achieving rural workforce gender equity. 2020, The author(s). | |
| Examining Teacher Characteristics, School Conditions, and Attrition Rates at the Intersection of School Choice and Rural Education | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | CHARTER; INTERSECTION; RURAL; TEACHER MOBILITY; | While prior research has examined teachers in rural schools and teachers in charter schools, there has been little research into the intersection of rural and charter schools. Using nationally representative data, we examine the extent to which teacher characteristics, school characteristics, and teacher mobility vary based on the urbanicity of schools and whether the school is a public or charter school. We find that teachers in rural charter schools turn over at a significantly lower rate than teachers in urban charter schools and are significantly more likely to be young, novice teachers than their rural public school counterparts. We provide evidence that, in comparison with rural settings, it is important to consider urban and suburban context separately, particularly with respect to charter schools as urban charter teacher demographics and the schools in which they teach are substantially different than those of suburban charter teachers. Our work suggests research cannot ignore how teacher demographics, teacher qualifications, and the students they teach vary significantly given the context of the intersection of school choice and rural education. 2020, 2020 Taylor & francis. | |

Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | PRACTICE-BASED INQUIRY; PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; REFLECTIVE TEACHER; TEACHER INQUIRY; TEACHER-RESEARCHER; | Educational research has generally attracted negative criticism for its generalisability, contextual independence, and inadequacy in addressing teachers' practical problems in their unique educational settings. Moreover, as classrooms are always complicated environments, teachers are therefore encouraged to become active researchers of their own classrooms in order to maximize their instructional performance and provide optimal learning opportunities for their students within their particular context. To promote teachers' self-inquiry into their own practices, this paper will first define what teacher research is, followed by arguments for its need and significance in the teaching profession. Suggestions to help teachers become engaged in classroom inquiry are provided after commonly reported difficulties are reviewed. This paper is expected to provide considerable insights for classroom teachers as well as school administrators in their search for practical, concrete, and contextually-rich knowledge. 2020 National research university higher school of economics.

| Latent Profile Analysis of Students Reading Development and the Relation of Cognitive Variables to Reading Profiles | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | PATHPATH INNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONSINNOVATIVE METHODS AND METRICS FOR AGRICULTURE AND NUTRITION ACTIONS | LATENT PROFILES; ORTHOGRAPHY; PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS; RAPID NAMING; READING DEVELOPMENT; | Previous studies have showed that early problems with word decoding can lead to poor performance in text reading and comprehension and suggest that poor readers often struggle with reading deficits throughout their school years. Therefore, early detection of those children who are at risk for slow reading development and/or who belong to the lowest reading profiles is essential in order to organize proper support. The present study explores the heterogeneity and prevalence of latent reading profiles among 769 finnish- and german-reading students during their first and second school years in three countries (finland, germany, and italy) using latent profile analysis. The results identified three latent profiles among finnish readers, one of which (sentence-level reading) was identified as developing slowly. Among german-reading students, four latent profiles were discovered, two of which were identified as developing slowly. The results of ordinal logistic regression modeling show that rapid automatic naming (ran) was significantly related to poorer reading profiles among finnish- and german-reading students, and that the poorer results in letter-sound connection testing among the german-reading group was also significantly related to poorer reading profiles. Although the educational systems have some differences between germany and german-speaking areas of italy, no significant country effect was detected. In addition, a childs age and spoken language did not significantly affect the students reading profile. 2020, The author(s). | |
| English-medium Instruction in the Australian Higher Education: Untold Stories of Academics from Non-native English-speaking Backgrounds | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | ACADEMIC PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; AUSTRALIA; ENGLISH-MEDIUM INSTRUCTION; HIGHER EDUCATION; LANGUAGE POLICY AND PLANNING; SOCIOCULTURAL THEORY; | The literature on english-medium instruction (emi) has predominantly focused on contexts where english is not the first language. Little is known about emi in traditional english-speaking (anglophone) contexts like australia, where english is the first language. The highly internationalised australian higher education has witnessed a growing cohort of foreign-born students and academics, many from non-native english-speaking backgrounds (nesb). Whilst the issue of emi for nesb students has received increased attention, the emi-related challenges facing nesb academics have been overlooked. This paper explores communicative and pedagogical challenges and associated strategies of nesb academics as they revealed untold stories about their teaching experiences in this emi context. It adopts a vygotskys socio-cultural theoretical perspective in conceptualising english as a tool academics appropriate to mediate their teaching. A modified emi competence framework further elaborates the use of english as a pedagogical and communicative tool. Data were generated through individual interviews and survey questionnaire with nesb academics at an australian university. Findings revealed multiple challenges facing the academics and strategies they applied to adapt english, as a mediational tool, to effectively mediate their teaching. The study has implications for emi research in anglophone contexts and professional development and institutional support for nesb academics. 2019, 2019 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Increasing Success in College: Examining the Impact of a Project-based Introductory Engineering Course | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | COURSE DESIGN; PROJECT-BASED LEARNING; PROPENSITY SCORE MATCHING; UNDERGRADUATE; | Background: project-based learning has shown promise in improving learning outcomes for diverse students. However, studies on its impacts have largely focused on the perceptions of students and instructors or students' immediate performance. This study reports the impact of taking a project-based introductory engineering course on students' subsequent academic success. Purpose/hypothesis: this quantitative study examines characteristics related to enrollment in the project-based introductory engineering course and subsequent academic performance. We hypothesized that participation in the course would be associated with higher academic performance in subsequent engineering courses. In addition, we examined heterogeneity effects for students traditionally underrepresented in engineering education. Design/method: this study utilized data on students' demographics, academic preparation, course enrollment, and course performance from 1,318 engineering students from a large public university in southern california. Logistic regression analysis with robust standard errors examined enrollment patterns. We applied propensity scores as inverse-probability weights in multiple linear models to calculate the average treatment effect on the treated for participants from the project-based introductory engineering course in five subsequent engineering courses. This analysis was conducted for all students and for selected student subgroups. Results: enrollment in the project-based introductory engineering course was positively associated with students' performance in some subsequent engineering courses and did not adversely affect students traditionally underrepresented in engineering. Conclusions: this study provides an example of a project-based introductory engineering course that can support students' academic success in engineering. The benefits detected for some student populations (e.G., Female) are encouraging for broadening engineering pathways. 2020 Asee | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | APPLIED LINGUISTIC; LITERATURE REVIEW; MOVES/STEPS; RHETORICAL VARIATIONS; THESES; | By employing chen and kuo's (2012) framework, this study comparatively investigated the rhetorical differences/similarities existing in the literature review chapters of master of arts (ma) theses authored by international and iraqi ma students in the field of applied linguistics. The results showed that almost half of the international lr chapters had introduction - body - conclusion progression, but this structure was rare in iraqi ones. Move1 (establishing one part of the territory) was conventional whereas move 2 and move 3 were both optional in the corpus. Analysis of steps showed that international students used the step of related research reviewing more than iraqi counterparts for the realization of move 1. International students justified the significance of their study by the step of gap indication whereas iraqi students resorted to the step of concluding one part of the research. Move 3 was commonly occurred by the use of indicating research aims step in the two sets of lr chapters. Generally, the findings show that, in writing lr chapters, iraqi ma students attempted to be familiar with their area of research interest rather than to cast their critical approaches to the current status of the established research in the literature. These findings call for a genrebased pedagogy in academic writing to sharpen the awareness of iraqi ma students of the functions of each move and step in lr chapters in applied linguistics. 2020 Eskisehir osmangazi university. | |

However, limited research has captured this interaction in investigating international student acculturation. Building on acculturation and personenvironment fit theories, this article investigated studentuniversity alignment of different dimensions as predictors of psychological adjustment of international students at universities in victoria, australia. The results of structural equation modeling suggested studentuniversity goal alignment was positively associated with student psychological adjustment. A revealing finding of this article is the mediating role of complementary fit in the relationship between supplementary fit and student psychological adjustment, where the complementary fit was represented by the alignment between student needs and university academic and facilities support, and supplementary fit was represented by studentuniversity goal alignment. The findings have implications for universities and practitioners in developing the necessary resources to support international students. 2020 European association for international education. | |
| Administrative Capacity Assessment in Higher Education: the Case of Universities in Vietnam | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | ADMINISTRATIVE CAPACITY; HIGHER EDUCATION; STOCHASTIC FRONTIER ANALYSIS; VIETNAM; | Administrative staff are a crucial human capital input in tertiary education institutions. Given the substantial investment in recruitment and selection of administrative staff, efficient and effective use of these staff affects the organisational and financial performance of universities. Whereas much concern has been placed on the performance of academic staff, the ability of a university to obtain an optimal level of administrative staff has not been addressed. This paper investigates whether the usage capacity of administrative staff is maximised in vietnamese universities. Vietnam has implemented several education reform policies with the aim to improve the standing of its universities in the world's education market. The process is not only about obtaining and delivering good education quality, but also efficiently using human resources to reach optimal performance and sustainable development. Employing the stochastic frontier input requirement model with data on 112 vietnamese universities, we examine the presence of excess administrative capacity in these universities, given the existing student outputs and other input resources. We find that, on average, the level of excess administrative capacity is 3.4%, Implying an economic loss in universities. In addition, under the analysis of determinants of the variances of the inefficiency effects and the error terms in the input-requirement function, our findings reveal that excess administrative capacity varies according to location and ownership. Some policy implications are discussed to address excess capacity of administrative staff in the vietnamese context and some key lessons learned for the rest of the world. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | META-ANALYSIS; TEACHER ATTRITION; TEACHER LABOR MARKET; TEACHER RETENTION; | Rigorous research examining the correlates of teacher turnover has grown in recent years. However, the most recent meta-analytic synthesis of this literature was published over a decade ago. To update our collective understanding and highlight advances in this literature, this meta-analysis reviews findings from 120 studies of factors associated with teacher turnover. In addition to providing a novel synthesis using the most up-to-date meta-analytic methods and better quality data than ever before, we contribute evidence to support an expanded conceptual framework for understanding teacher turnover. This framework adds several underexamined factors influencing teacher turnover, provides more nuance to factors previously studied, highlights the growing influence of educational policies external to the school, and accounts for an emerging awareness of the interplay between teacher and school characteristics. This paper reports both results for how various teacher, school, and workforce factors are associated with teacher turnover and discusses the policy implications using our expanded theoretical framework. 2020 Elsevier ltd | |

Tiếng Anh | DEAKIN UNIVERSITYDEAKIN UNIVERSITY | COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT; FOREIGN INFLUENCES; RESEARCH; TEACHING AND LEARNING; VIETNAMESE HIGHER EDUCATION; | Over the past three decades, the higher education landscape in many asian countries has witnessed various changes, many of which have resulted from foreign influences and the interactions of local education policy discourse with neo-liberal globalisation, market forces and the demand for a market economy. This article provides nuanced insights into how foreign forces have influenced the practices related to teaching-learning, research and community engagement in three vietnamese universities. The analysis of university leaders and academics perspectives reveals positive changes in university practices as a result of this interaction and learning from foreign partners, including the shift towards practice-based and student-centred teaching, fairer treatment of students, stronger awareness of the value and principles of undertaking research and the closer connection with social demands in teaching and research. The analysis also indicates the ways foreign practices clash with vietnamese higher education structures, confucian values and the communist leadership. The article discusses implications for vietnamese universities to creatively learn from and localise international practices, while avoiding being colonised by foreign forces. 2019, 2019 University of cambridge, faculty of education. | |

Tiếng Anh | DEAKIN UNIVERSITYDEAKIN UNIVERSITY | EMPLOYABILITY; INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION; INTERNATIONAL GRADUATES; INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; POST-STUDY WORK POLICIES; | Despite a significant number of international graduates staying in the host countries on post-graduation visas, their experiences in gaining access to the host labour market are less documented. This article addresses this critical but under-researched topic. It discusses the ecological circumstances impacting international graduates participation in the australian host labour market, including the temporality of their visas, employers concerns, constraints of the market, time issue and bargaining position. Drawing on agency theory, the study shows two forms of agency enacted by international graduates in navigating the host market: needs-response agency, entailing their choice of field, persistence, and early job-seeking, and agency as becoming, entailing their professional identity development to become more employable. The study found the following common strategies adopted by international graduates: proactively explaining their work rights to employers, using alternative job search channels, reskilling, evidencing their professional skills, undertaking internships, networking and creating jobs for themselves and other peers. The study offered fresh insights into international graduates career adaptive behaviours, job-seeking skills and career management skills. 2020 British association for international and comparative education. | |
| High School Teachers’ Self-efficacy in Teaching Computer Science | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION; COMPUTER SCIENCE TEACHER EDUCATION; DISTRIBUTED LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS; SECONDARY EDUCATION; SELF-EFFICACY; | Self-efficacy is an important construct for cs teachers' professional development, because it can predict both teaching behaviors as well as student outcomes. Research has shown that teachers' self-efficacy can be as influential as their actual level of knowledge and abilities. However, there has been very limited research on cs teachers' self-efficacy. This study describes the development and implementation of an instrument that measures secondary school teachers' self-efficacy in teaching computer science. Teachers attended a nine-week hybrid professional development program and completed the computer science teaching self-efficacy instrument. Confirmatory factor analysis validated the self-efficacy instrument, which can be potentially used in other cs education settings. The results also indicated that teachers' self-efficacy in the content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge dimensions of teaching computer science significantly increased from participating in the professional development program. 2020 Acm. | |
| Eye Gaze and L2 Speakers’ Responses to Recasts: a Systematic Replication Study of Mcdonough, Crowther, Kielstra and Trofimovich (2015) | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES RESEARCH COUNCIL OF CANADASOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES RESEARCH COUNCIL OF CANADA | To confirm the role of social factors in mediating cognitive processes, this systematic replication study seeks to extend the generalizability of an exploratory study (mcdonough, crowther, kielstra & trofimovich 2015) that reported a positive association between eye gaze and second language (l2) speakers' responses to recasts. For this replication, l2 english speakers (n = 74) carried out communicative tasks with research assistants who provided recasts in response to non-targetlike forms while both interlocutors' eye gaze behavior was tracked. Transcripts were analyzed for the occurrence of recasts in response to different error types, recast length, and l2 speaker responses. Eye gaze length for the research assistants (ras) when producing the recast move and the l2 speaker when responding to the recast were obtained in seconds, and mutual gaze (i.E., Simultaneous looking) was included as a binary eye gaze variable. A logistic regression model confirmed the findings of mcdonough et al. (2015), With both l2 speaker and mutual eye gaze predictive of targetlike responses; however, the effect of l2 speaker's eye gaze duration was in the opposite direction as compared to the initial study. The implications are discussed in terms of understanding the role of eye gaze in face to face interaction. Copyright 2018 cambridge university press. | ||
| You Are Not Invisible: a Qualitative Study Examining Ritual, Pedagogical Relationships, and Student Visibility in Kathak Dance | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | WILLIAM T. GRANT FOUNDATIONWILLIAM T. GRANT FOUNDATION | CULTURALLY RELEVANT PEDAGOGY; DANCE; DANCE EDUCATION; KATHAK DANCE; YOUTH STUDIES; | This paper examines how rituals contribute to developing pedagogical relationships among asian american youth and their teacher in a kathak dance program. The research draws from ethnographic data collected at a community-based organization. It is driven by the following research question: how do pedagogical relationships with immigrant youth in a classical indian dance class promote student visibility? It suggests ethnic practices, customs and rituals embedded in class can give youth crucial visibility by staff, which counters social narratives situating asian american youth as silen[t] and contain[ed],, or invisible. Importantly, rituals built into the framework of a dance class over time ensure a longevity to students presence. This paper contributes to the discourse on dance education by highlighting culturally relevant pedagogical relationships to reveal unique contextual information about each mover. . 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |
| Driving Network Externalities in Education for Sustainable Development | , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | JAPAN SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCIENCEJAPAN SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCIENCE | COMMUNICATION; EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT; FIELD TRIP; NETWORK EXTERNALITY; SOCIAL ENTERPRISE; SOCIAL MARKETING; SOCIAL PROBLEMS; | Solving important social problems and promoting sustainable development requires solutions involving multiple stakeholders. Nevertheless, previous social marketing studies were limited to individual behavioral changes and lacked a perspective to involve surrounding stakeholders. This study focused on education for sustainable development (esd) on a field trip and clarified the factors that promote students knowledge diffusion from the viewpoint of network externalities. A questionnaire was distributed, and responses from 1950 high school students were collected. This study used factor analysis to unveil the factors related to students features and field trip experiences and clarified how these factors promote driving network externalities and expanding the network through regression analysis. The findings indicated that the experiential value obtained from visiting a site with actual social problems has a large positive effect on driving network externalities and expanding the network. Therefore, encouraging driving network externalities and expanding networks by providing esd on a field trip can contribute to solve social problems and achieve sustainable development. 2020 By the authors.

| Peeking Into the Black Box of School Turnaround: a Formal Test of Mediators and Suppressors | , , | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | LAURA AND JOHN ARNOLD FOUNDATIONLAURA AND JOHN ARNOLD FOUNDATION WALTON FAMILY FOUNDATIONWALTON FAMILY FOUNDATION | A growing body of research evaluates the effects of turnaround on chronically low-performing schools. We extend this literature by formally testing factors that may either mediate or suppress the effects of two turnaround initiatives in tennessee: the achievement school district (asd) and local innovation zones (izones). Using difference-in-differences models within a mediational framework, we find that hiring effective teachers and principals partially explains positive izone effects. In the asd, high levels of teacher turnover suppress potential positive effects. Also, in izone schools, increased levels of student mobility and chronic absenteeism suppress potentially larger positive effects. Policies that increase capacity within turnaround schools, such as financial incentives for effective staff, appear to be important ingredients for realizing positive effects from turnaround reforms. 2020 Aera. | ||

Tiếng Anh | LAURA AND JOHN ARNOLD FOUNDATIONLAURA AND JOHN ARNOLD FOUNDATION WALTON FAMILY FOUNDATIONWALTON FAMILY FOUNDATION | ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTIONS; ENTREPRENEURIAL PREPARATION; STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELLING; STUDENTS; THE PHILIPPINES; VIETNAM; | This study aims to explore the relations between the factors of the start-up environment and entrepreneurial intentions of students in universities in vietnam and the philippines by combining key elements of theory of reasoned action, theory of planned behaviour, theory of entrepreneurial events and model of entrepreneurial potential. Research findings were expected to test the appropriateness of this proposed model in the context of vietnam and the philippines. A bilateral survey was carried out among 819 students at five universities in vietnam and the philippines and the structural equation modelling was applied to estimate the determinants of the students entrepreneurial intentions. The findings indicated that subjective norms, entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial desirability, and entrepreneurial motivation were positively related to perceived feasibility. Entrepreneurial education was the key determinant of entrepreneurial intention. Barriers for startups demonstrated a negative effect on the perceived feasibility. The key role of entrepreneurial education to entrepreneurial intention was confirmed in both countries. However, there are existing challenges in entrepreneurial education which required more respective supports from governments to promote the enterprise development. 2019 | |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION; EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY; STUDENT REFLECTION; | This paper examines teachers' use of flipgrid, a student-facing video platform, as a reflection tool to promote computer science language in upper elementary classrooms. We take a case-study approach with three fourth grade teachers: one had a high number of students with special needs, one had substantially more gifted and talented students, and one taught a dual immersion english-spanish class. Data sources include teacher interviews, design meetings between researchers and teachers, and classroom observations. We find that teachers with different pedagogical visions adopted the tools for reinforcement, student engagement, and formative assessment. We document teachers' iterative improvement strategies and shifts in teacher noticing, particularly the objects (i.E., Computer science vocabulary and concepts), level (i.E., Whole-class versus individual students), and depth of how they noticed students learning through video reflections. This study contributes to the ongoing work that examines instructional approaches to promoting computing education in diverse k-12 classrooms, especially among teachers with no formal training in computer science education. 2020 Ieee. |
| Using Teacher Collective Efficacy as a Conceptual Framework for Teacher Professional Learning a Case Study | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | COLLECTIVE EFFICACY; PRIMARY SCIENCE EDUCATION; PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; SELF EFFICACY; WORKPLACE LEARNING; | There has been an evolution in the teacher professional learning literature on what constitutes effective process. This evolution has seen a shift from a focus on the design elements to the theory of action that integrates and drives these disparate elements to create effective professional learning. This study argues that a focus on a theory of action can be enhanced when the construct of teacher collective efficacy is considered in relation to teacher professional learning. This study examined how participation in a collaborative professional learning model for primary science impacted on the teachers sense of their collective efficacy in a specific context in australia. Data from interviews, professional learning sessions, written reflections and classroom observations of a group of 12 primary teachers were analysed using the construct of teacher collective efficacy. The evidence from this case study suggests that teacher collective efficacy employed as a conceptual framework may be a useful design heuristic that might enhance the quality of a teachers professional learning experience.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | ACTIVE LEARNING; EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING; KOLBS LEARNING MODEL; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; THE EQUATION OF A CIRCLE; | Methods of education in schools should promote students' activeness, self-awareness, initiative and creativity; be suitable with the characteristics of each class and subject; foster self-study methods, ability to work in groups, practice skills to apply knowledge into practice, and impact emotions to bring joy as well as excitement to students. Experiential education is a method of teaching and meets the above requirements. Experiential activities are closely related to teaching and educational activities in schools, in order to create an environment for learners, associate theory with practice, and unify awareness with action and learners, and have the opportunity to experience their behaviour. The study was aimed at assessing the performance of activities through experience in solving problems about the equation of a circle and investigate students' attitudes as well as beliefs in such activities. The experimental class included 30 10th grade students and was taught by the experiential learning model, while the control class also had 30 students and was taught in a conventional way of teachers guidance. Both quantitative and qualitative analysis methods were utilised to analyse and evaluate the collected data. The results showed that the experimental class achieved better mathematical results than the control class as well as had a positive learning attitude, showing interest in the learning topic. 2020 The author(s). |

Tiếng Anh | UNITED STATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTUNITED STATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION UNITED NATIONS POPULATION FUNDUNITED NATIONS POPULATION FUND JOINT UNITED NATIONS PROGRAMME ON HIV/AIDSJOINT UNITED NATIONS PROGRAMME ON HIV/AIDS | ANTHROPOMETRY; CHILD HEALTH; DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; MATERNAL EDUCATION; | This paper investigates the intergenerational effects of maternal education on child health in 68 developing countries across five continents over nearly three decades. Exploiting the between-sisters variation in the educational attainment of the mothers, we find that mother's education is positively associated with child health measured by the three most commonly used indices, namely height-for-age, weight-for-height, and weight-for-age. Our mechanism analyses further show that these favorable effects could be, at least in part, attributed to fertility behavior, assortative matching, health care utilization, access to information, health knowledge, and labor market outcome. Given the long-lasting impacts of early-life health over the life cycle, our findings underline the importance of maternal education in improving economic and social conditions in developing countries. 2020 Elsevier ltd |

Teachers' practices are strongly affected by teachers' perceptions. The purpose of this study was to identify teachers' perceptions to sustain stem education development, regarding stem education, stem competencies, and difficulties in stem implementation. We collected the data from 186 vietnamese teachers, including stem sub-field teachers and no stem sub-field teachers. We used a survey method to capture teachers' perceptions of stem education. The one-way anova was employed to examine the differences in teachers' perceptions of stem education in terms of the categorization of teaching experience, education background, and teaching subjects. The quantitative analysis showed that most vietnamese teachers had positive views on stem education. The higher educational background teachers and science teachers have the highest statistically significant scores in (1) stem education, (2) stem competencies, and (3) difficulties in implementation. The novice teachers have more positive views of stem education, in terms of a better understanding of stem education and assessing stem competencies as being more valuable. There are no statistically significant differences in teachers' difficulties among teaching experience groups. These results provide valuable information to design effective teacher professional development to sustain stem education. 2020 By the authors. |

Tiếng Anh | MINISTERIO DE CIENCIA Y TECNOLOGAMINISTERIO DE CIENCIA Y TECNOLOGA NATIONAL TAIWAN NORMAL UNIVERSITYNATIONAL TAIWAN NORMAL UNIVERSITY KEMENTERIAN PENDIDIKAN MALAYSIAKEMENTERIAN PENDIDIKAN MALAYSIA | CURRICULUM; GLOBAL HEALTH; GRADUATE EDUCATION; INDIA; PUBLIC HEALTH; | Background: global health education has attracted significant attention in recent years from academic institutions in developed countries. In india however, a recent analysis found that delivery of global health education is fragmented and called for academic institutions to work towards closing the developing country/developed country dichotomy. Our study explored the understanding of global health in the indian setting and opportunities for development of a global health education framework in indian public health institutions. Methods: the study involved semi-structured interviews with staff of indian public health institutes and other key stakeholders in global health in india. The interview questions covered participants' interpretation of global health and their opinion about global health education in india. Thematic analysis was conducted. A theoretical framework developed by smith and shiffman to explain political priority for global health initiatives was adapted to guide our analysis to explore development of global health education in indian public health institutions. Results: a total of 17 semi-structured interviews were completed which involved 12 faculty members from five public health institutes and five stakeholders from national and multilateral organisations. Global health was viewed as the application of public health in real-world setting and at a broader, deeper and transnational scale. The understanding of global health was informed by participants' exposure to work experiences and interaction with overseas faculty. Most common view about the relationship between global health and public health was that public health has become more global and both are interconnected. Integration of global health education into public health curriculum was supported but there were concerns given public health was still a new discipline in india. Most participants felt that global health competencies are complementary to public health competencies and build on core public health skills. Employability, faculty exposure to global health and 'sensitisation' of all stakeholders were key barriers to offering global health education programs. Conclusion: global health as a concept and educational practice is embryonic in india but there is considerable potential to grow in order to ensure that education meets the needs of future practitioners of global health in the context of sustainable development. 2020 The author(s). |

Methods: we used a cluster randomised controlled trial, with pre- and post-testing, and a feedback survey at the end of the 18-month cme programme. The measurements consisted of a multiple-choice test, an objective structured clinical examination test and an anonymously self-administered questionnaire. Results: there were 58 family doctors from four provinces in the intervention group and 32 doctors from three provinces in control group, both in the mekong delta region in vietnam. The mean age of participants was 47.8Years, and the female/male ratio was 1/2.9. After training, the intervention group had significantly higher scores on overall knowledge (mean difference=1.4, 95% Ci 1.01.86, P<0.001; Cohen's d 1.36, Pearson's r 0.53), In four of the five education modules: peptic disorders, diabetes, hypertension and bonemusclejoint diseases (pearson's r 0.56, 0.56, 0.34 And 0.4, Respectively), and in problem-solving skills (pearson's r 0.27). Self-reports showed a positive learning attitude, strong interest and improved confidence and competency among doctors in the intervention group. Conclusions: a combined online and face-to-face cme programme proved applicable and effective for improving the clinical knowledge and problem-solving skills of family doctors in vietnam. 2020 John wiley & sons ltd |

Tiếng Anh | VLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAADVLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAAD | ESSAY QUESTION; MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTION; NATIONAL EXAMINATION OF MATHEMATICS; TESTING AND EVALUATION; | In vietnam, after completing the high school education program, students who want to receive high school diploma, they must take a national examination including three compulsory subjects: math, a foreign language, and literature and electives in two groups: or physics, chemistry and biology or history, geography and citizenship education. The method of exam-taking in the national examination greatly affected the teaching and learning style of teachers and students. In the process of teaching at high school, especially in the final year, the teachers studied how to ask types of question that have appeared in the national exam to focus on practising test-taking skills for students. Before 2017, the national examinations of physics, chemistry, biology, foreign languages, geography, history and citizenship education consisted of all the multiple-choice questions; only in math and literature, essay questions were used. Since 2017, in national examinations of mathematics in vietnam, there has been a significant change: the examinations with all essay questions with a time of 180 minutes (10 questions) were replaced by examinations with all multiple-choice questions (45 questions / 90 minutes). This change has met many conflicting opinions and has profoundly affected teachers' the method of teaching and reviewing knowledge and skills of mathematics for high school students in vietnam. To better understand the perception of mathematics teachers - who directly teach - about this change, we conducted a survey of 50 mathematics teachers. The results showed that they were fully aware of the advantages of multiple-choice question-based examinations, and most of them wanted to maintain the use of multiple-choice questions for the following years.

Tiếng Anh | VLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAADVLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAAD | ATTITUDE; FAMILY MEDICINE ROTATION; KNOWLEDGE; PRE-TEST AND POST-TEST COMPARISON; PRIMARY CARE; QUALITATIVE SURVEY; SKILL; VIETNAM; | Objectives: well-designed studies on the impact of a family medicine rotation on medical students are rare, and very few studies include a qualitative component. This study aimed to determine the improvement of medical students knowledge, communication skills and attitude towards primary care and explore their perceptions after rotations, in comparison with a control group. Methods: we used a mixed-methods design, comprising a pre-testpost-test comparison between a sample of trained students who took family medicine rotations and a control group and a qualitative survey. The measurement of improvement included (i) multiple choice question testing, (ii) objective structured checklist examinations, (iii) self-reporting and (iv) interviews and focus group discussions. Data were collected from august 2017 to june 2018. Results: there were 696 students in the trained group and 617 controls. The two groups baseline scores in knowledge, communication skills and attitude were not significantly different. Knowledge covering five domains of family medicine (pearson's r from 0.6 To 0.9) Improved significantly, as did attitudes towards primary care in the trained group. There were no differences in communication and counselling skills between the two groups for four situations, but for twohealth check-ups and mental health careskills were significantly improved (pearson's r from 0.28 To 0.43). The qualitative survey showed highly positive feedback from trained students. Conclusions: the family medicine rotation significantly improved students knowledge and attitude towards primary care and some communication skills. Further studies should investigate students interest in and career choice for this discipline. 2019 John wiley & sons ltd |

Tiếng Anh | VLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAADVLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAAD | EDUCATION; HETEROGENEOUS; INEQUALITY; QUANTILE REGRESSION; RURAL LIVELIHOODS;; | Using the updated data from the 2016 vietnam household living standard survey, this study examines the role of education in the livelihood of households in the northwest region, the poorest region in vietnam. Our micro-econometric analysis shows that education has a positive effect on choosing better livelihoods, household income and poverty reduction, even after controlling for all other factors in the models. However, our quantile regression analysis reveals that the returns on education are substantially heterogeneous across percentiles of income distribution and tend to be higher for better-off households. This implies that education has an increasing effect on within-level income inequality. The finding suggests that a conventional approach employing only mean regression to study the effect of education on income could miss heterogeneity of interest to policymakers. 2018, Springer science+business media b.V., Part of springer nature. |

Tiếng Anh | VLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAADVLAAMSE INTERUNIVERSITAIRE RAAD | BLENDED LEARNING; FUNDAMENTAL COURSE; ONLINE LEARNING; | This study attempts to explore the impact of blended learning (bl) approach and online learning (ol) approach on student achievements in a fundamental course at a polytechnic in vietnam. Secondary data were collected by the academic affairs office. A simple statistical analysis method was employed to process the data. The findings revealed that bl approach implementation left a positive impact on student achievements since the pass rate remained high, the fail rate and ineligibility rate were satisfactory over the studied period. Meanwhile, the data of the pass rate and fail rate in the ol course proved that this approach had not gained success compared to prior expectation when there was a decision to transform from bl approach to ol approach in teaching fundamental courses at the polytechnic. However, the positive ineligibility rate in the studied ol fundamental course suggested that ol approach would be appropriate in teaching this course provided that further research should be done to figure out the issues and offer the resolutions. 2020 Acm. |

Tiếng Anh | MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | ACADEMIC AGENCY; POSITIONING; POSTCOLONIAL; VIETNAMESE HIGHER EDUCATION; VIETNAMESE SCHOLARS; | For many years now, knowledge production at universities and in countries like vietnam has been framed by centre/periphery discourses. In this paper, we suggest that interpreting academics research identities in relation to these discourses can assist in understanding ways in which vietnamese academics negotiate knowledge production. For this article, data on six participants are drawn from a qualitative study in which semi-structured interviews were used to investigate the positioning of different generations of academics working in the area of social sciences, in vietnam or in the diaspora. Findings from this data revealed that senior researchers positioned their own local knowledge and experiences as central to what they perceived to be the betterment of vietnam. In contrast, early and mid-career academics, especially those who studied in western countries, looked outward to apply western research frameworks to the vietnamese context, placing vietnam in a more peripheral position in the global academic community. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. |

Tiếng Anh | MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | ASSESSMENT METHOD; BLENDED LEARNING; | This paper attempts to investigate the impact of different assessment methods on the student achievements of english fundamental course in the context of blended learning implementation. In order to understand the certain impact level of a single assessment method on learners' achievement as well as the different effect that each method have on that achievement, the data on learning result of the whole english level was collected and gathered in every single semester. A correlation among certain variables including pass rate, fail rate and ineligibility rate is recorded, and the preliminary change, though minor, is marked. As the finding suggests, the pass rate in each academic semester not only is based on the assessment method selected to implement but also depends on other criteria such as the number of new enrollment and the fail rate from the previous semester. It can also be indicated that in order to achieve high pass rate among students in a blended learning setting, it is not only boost learner's autonomy, but also requires effort to improve learners' technology acceptance level. 2020 Acm. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CULTURE; MINORITY GROUP; NORTHWEST; TYPES OF LEARNING; VIETNAM; | One of the concerns in improving the quality of minority education in multicultural nations is how to choose the appropriate types of learning for different ethnic groups, especially when such decision can be constrained their cultural diversity. This paper aims to analyze the effect of cultural differences on selecting types of learning for ethnic minorities; thus, recommending some ethic-specific policies to better utilize the manpower resources in the northwest region of vietnam. Questionnaires were employed to survey 250 people from 6 ethnic minority groups, whose population is over one million locating in three provinces in the northwest border region of vietnam. The study also conducted 20 in-depth interviews with management teams of different educational institutions and corporations. The results show that ethnic-cultural factors including gender, customs, ethnic relations, and marriage age have determined the choice of learning types in higher education levels. From those points, this paper suggests development interventions so that ethnic-cultural factors do not reduce the ability to pursue higher education, increase the unemployment rate of ethic minorities, and cause waste in finance, resources, infrastructure for training in the northwest region of vietnam. 2020, 2020 The author(s).

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EDUCATION AND SCIENCE POLICY; JOURNAL CITATION REPORTS; JOURNAL IMPACT FACTOR; PUBLISHING INCENTIVES; R&D MANAGEMENT; RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS; | Universities and funders in many countries have been using journal impact factor (jif) as an indicator for research and grant assessment despite its controversial nature as a statistical representation of scientific quality. This study investigates how the changes of jif over the years can affect its role in research evaluation and science management by using jif data from annual journal citation reports (jcr) to illustrate the changes. The descriptive statistics find out an increase in the median jif for the top 50 journals in the jcr, from 29.300 In 2017 to 33.162 In 2019. Moreover, on average, elite journal families have up to 27 journals in the top 50. In the group of journals with a jif of lower than 1, the proportion has shrunk by 14.53% In the 20152019 period. The findings suggest a potential jif bubble period that science policymaker, university, public fund managers, and other stakeholders should pay more attention to jif as a criterion for quality assessment to ensure more efficient science management.

| Do Student-level Incentives Increase Student Achievement? a Review of the Effect of Monetary Incentives on Test Performance | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NUTRITION OBESITY RESEARCH CENTER, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINANUTRITION OBESITY RESEARCH CENTER, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA | Background: policymakers have debated whether test scores represent students' maximum level of effort, prompting research into whether student-level financial incentives can improve test scores. If cash incentives are shown to improve students' test performance, there can be questions as to whether test scores obtained in the absence of financial incentives accurately reflect what students know and can do. This can raise concerns as to whether test scores should be used to guide policy decisions. Purpose: this study used meta-analysis to estimate the effect of student-level incentives on test performance. The study also included a narrative review. Research design: twenty-one studies conducted in the united states and internationally were included in the meta-analysis. Effect sizes were estimated separately for mathematics, reading/language arts, and overall achievement. Findings: financial incentives had a significantly positive effect on overall achievement and on mathematics achievement, but no effect on reading/language arts achievement. The narrative review suggested mixed effects with regards to whether treatment estimates could be sustained after the removal of the incentives and whether larger cash payments were associated with stronger program impact. Programs that offered monetary incentives in conjunction with other academic supports tended to show stronger effects than programs that offered incentives alone. Conclusion: the findings raise questions as to whether policymakers should use scores from low-stakes test to inform high-stakes policy decisions. The study cautions against using scores from international assessments to rank order countries' educational systems or using scores from state achievement tests to sanction schools or award teacher bonuses. 2020 Teachers college, columbia university.

| Recent Trends in the Characteristics of New Teachers, the Schools in Which They Teach, and Their Turnover Rates | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NUTRITION OBESITY RESEARCH CENTER, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINANUTRITION OBESITY RESEARCH CENTER, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA | Background: over the past couple of decades, new teachers have become a pronounced focus of policy makers. This attention is a result of demographic shifts in the teacher labor market, increased attention to the quality of teachers assigned to historically underserved student populations, and high rates of new teacher turnover. Purpose: our goal is to understand how the characteristics of new teachers and the schools in which they teach have changed over time, including changes in the characteristics of teachers in schools that enroll a majority of economically disadvantaged and minority students. We examine how these broad changes relate to new teacher turnover, as well as the induction supports that may improve retention. Research design: we draw on nationally representative data from all seven waves of the schools and staffing survey from the 19871988 to 20112012 school years to better understand the extent to which the characteristics of beginning teachers, the schools in which they teach, and their turnover rates have changed over time. We draw on data regarding teachers demographic characteristics, education and credentials, and school characteristics and working conditions, and turnover. Data analysis: we first describe how characteristics of new teachers and the schools in which they teach have changed. We then examine how these characteristics vary systematically across schools that enroll a majority of students who identify as racial/ethnic minorities and schools with fewer racial/ethnic minorities. We examine the extent to which new teachers are more likely than more experienced teachers to turn over from underserved schools and how organizational supports such as administrative support and induction programs predict lower rates of turnover. Findings: beginning teachers are now more likely to be certified, to have earned a graduate degree, and to have graduated from a selective college. They are also much more likely to begin their careers in schools that enroll more racially diverse students than in previous decades. Teachers are more likely to turn over from schools where the majority of students identify as racial/ethnic minorities, although the presence of supportive colleagues and administrators and induction supports are associated with lower turnover rates. Conclusions: that the majority of new teachers now begin their careers in schools serving a majority of economically disadvantaged and minority students has implications for the preparation and induction of new teachers. Our results point to the continued importance of the provision of supports that integrate teachers into the social and professional culture of a school. 2020 Teachers college, columbia university.

| Collaboration Versus Concreteness: Tensions in Designing for Scale | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONU.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCESINSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCES | Background: substantial research on reform implementation highlights numerous challenges to implementing innovations at scale with depth and sustainability, yet new reforms continue to encounter many of the same challenges. This has led to calls for researchers to work in partnership with practitioners to design, implement, and scale educational innovations. Although these approaches hold promise, little is known about the internal operations of these improvement approaches and the experiences of their participants. Purpose: through a case study of a research-practice partnership that uses a continuous improvement approach to design and development, this article explores how the collaborative design process shaped the resulting innovation design. Research design: this is a qualitative case study that included interviews with members of the district and school design teams, observations and field notes from design team meetings, and participant feedback forms. Findings/results: the evidence converges on three main challenges in the design process. These challenges point to tensions in maximizing all the design factors because they sometimes conflicted with each other: (1) members were most engaged when the work was very specific and deemed feasible in a particular context, (2) efforts to develop more specificity in the design emphasis were limited by efforts to engage educators in a collaborative process in which school-level actors had ownership over key design decisions, and (3) the abstractness of the emerging reform led to difficulties in establishing a shared deep understanding of each core component of the reform. Finally, the ability of school teams to productively resolve these tensions was related to the existing capacity of the school. Conclusions: this case study of a collaborative design process in a research-practice partnership illustrates the complexities of the co-construction of a set of reform practices between researchers, practitioners, and other stakeholders and highlights the need for a delicate balance between specificity of the design and local engagement. We showed how a collaborative process fostered high engagement as researchers and practitioners co-constructed the reform, and how the team struggled to define the core strategies in sufficient detail to allow for implementation planning in a way that maintained the co-constructed design. There appeared to be a tension between achieving the necessary concreteness or specificity in the reform design that would be implemented across contexts, and a process that valued local ownership and collaborative decision-making. 2020 Teachers college, columbia university.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCILNATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | CHILD & ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRY; MENTAL HEALTH; PUBLIC HEALTH; | Introduction the resourceful adolescent program (rap) is an evidence-based resilience intervention for adolescents. Operating in a strength-focused paradigm, the programme uses an integration of cognitive behavioural therapy and interpersonal psychotherapy to improve coping skills and build resilience. This study aims to establish whether a culturally and linguistically adapted intervention informed by rap principles is effective in increasing resilience, enhancing coping skills and preventing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Methods and analysis we will translate, back-translate and culturally adapt the rap for adolescents and training materials for facilitators, and the adapted intervention will be called happy house. A two-arm parallel controlled trial will be conducted in eight high schools in the north of vietnam. In each of the selected schools, all students from four randomly selected grade 10 classes (an estimation of about 1204 students) will be invited to participate. The control group will receive the usual curriculum. The intervention group will receive six weekly 90 min school-based group sessions of happy house in addition to the usual curriculum. The primary outcome, depressive symptoms, will be measured using a locally validated version of the centre for epidemiologic studies depression scale revised. Secondary outcomes are mental well-being, coping self-efficacy, school connectedness, anger management and health risk behaviours. Data will be collected at recruitment, and at two weeks and six months post intervention. Mixed-effect logistic regression for the main outcome and mixed-effect linear and logistic regression models for the secondary outcomes will be conducted to estimate the effects of the intervention on the outcomes. Ethics and dissemination this trial has been approved by monash university human research ethics committee (no. 21455) And the institutional review board of the hanoi school of public health (488/2019/ytcc-hd3).

| Disparities Across Time: Exploring Absenteeism Patterns Between Cohorts of Students With Disabilities | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT NATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCILNATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL MONASH UNIVERSITYMONASH UNIVERSITY | Background: it is of grave concern that kindergartners are missing more school than students in any other year of elementary school; therefore, documenting which students are absent and for how long is of upmost importance. Yet, doing so for students with disabilities (swds) has received little attention. This study addresses this gap by examining two cohorts of swds, separated by more than a decade, to document changes in attendance patterns. Research questions: first, for swds, has the number of school days missed or chronic absenteeism rates changed over time? Second, how are changes in the number of school days missed and chronic absenteeism rates related to changes in academic emphasis, presence of teacher aides, swd-specific teacher training, and preschool participation? Subjects: this study uses data from the early childhood longitudinal study (ecls), a nationally representative data set of children in kindergarten. We rely on both ecls data sets- the kindergarten classes of 1998-1999 and 2010-2011. Measures were identical in both data sets, making it feasible to compare children across the two cohorts. Given identical measures, we combined the data sets into a single data set with an indicator for being in the older cohort. Research design: this study examined two sets of outcomes: the first was number of days absent, and the second was likelihood of being chronically absent. These outcomes were regressed on a measure for being in the older cohort (our key measure for changes over time) and numerous control variables. The error term was clustered by classroom. Findings: we found that swds are absent more often now than they were a decade earlier, and this growth in absenteeism was larger than what students without disabilities experienced. Absenteeism among swds was higher for those enrolled in full-day kindergarten, although having attended center-based care mitigates this disparity over time. Implications are discussed. Conclusions: our study calls for additional attention and supports to combat the increasing rates of absenteeism for swds over time. Understanding contextual shifts and trends in rates of absenteeism for swds in kindergarten is pertinent to crafting effective interventions and research geared toward supporting the academic and social needs of these students. 2020 Teachers college, columbia university.

Four well-established lists were compared and it was found that bnc/coca2000 (british national corpus / corpus of contemporary american english 2000) and the new general service list (new-gsl) provided the greatest lexical coverage in spoken and written corpora. The present study further compared these two lists using teacher perceptions of word usefulness and learner vocabulary knowledge as the criteria. First, 78 experienced teachers of english as a second language / english as a foreign language (esl/efl) rated the usefulness of 973 non-overlapping items between the two lists for their learners. Second, 135 vietnamese efl learners completed 15 yes/no tests which measured their knowledge of the same 973 words. Teachers perceived that the bnc/coca2000 had more useful words. Items in this list were also better known by the learners. This suggests that the bnc/coca2000 is the more useful high-frequency wordlist for second language (l2) learners. The author(s) 2020. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | There is limited research on how perceived peer network influences student collaboration in project-based instruction. Research based on interviews or content analyses may overlook the semantic structure of discourse. In this study, we combine content analysis with computational linguistics to explore the collaboration patterns of 22 first-year students during face-to-face group design (n = 7,514 conversational turns) in a project-based engineering course. We find that students who reported smaller peer network generally produced discourse that provided new information, but less cohesion, compared to students with perceived median and large peer networks. Overall, students with small networks also engaged in group planning, evaluation, and shared regulation less frequently compared to the other two groups. Findings have implications for adjusting group arrangement in design activities. The study also illustrates the potential of incorporating computational approaches to detecting discourse. 2020 International society of the learning sciences (isls). All rights reserved. | |

Tiếng Anh | MELBOURNE RESEARCH, UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNEMELBOURNE RESEARCH, UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE | EDUCATION POLICY; GOVERNANCE; POLICY NETWORKS; POLICY SOCIOLOGY; POLYCENTRICITY; TRANSLATION; | This paper explores the emergence of the term polycentricity in education policy research and compares its use in education to its historical use in its parent fields of political science and economics. We focus on the leading role of stephen ball and colleagues in popularising the term in education, inspiring other education scholars to harness the term to examine contemporary governance arrangements. Our primary argument is that in broad descriptive terms, the use of the term in education generally mirrors its use in political science and economics. Its prescriptive usage, however, is very different, with arguments about the impacts of polycentricity in education policy often contrasting sharply with arguments in political science and economics. This has resulted, we argue, in core elements of the concept being lost in translation. Yet, at the same time, its use in education has also generated new and important critical insights. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. |

Tiếng Anh | MELBOURNE RESEARCH, UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNEMELBOURNE RESEARCH, UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE | COVID-19; E-LEARNING; LEARNING DURING EMERGENCY; ONLINE TEACHING AND LEARNING; SCHOOL CLOSURES; TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE MODEL (TAM); UNIVERSITIES; | Purpose: by using a technology acceptance model (tam) on survey results collected from two member schools of a vietnamese educational institution, this study aims to uncover the key factors that affect students acceptance of e-learning during the covid-19 period. Design/methodology/approach: a bilingual questionnaire in english and vietnamese was delivered. It was pre-tested on 30 participants before it was finalized. The authors first reviewed the measurement model and made adjustments to the theoretical tam model. Then the adjusted tam was used to investigate the relationships of the constructs in the model. Findings: the results of the structural model show that computer self-efficacy (cse) has a positive impact on perceived ease of use (peou). There is also a positive relationship between system interactivity (si) and peou. Surprisingly, the authors documented that peou has no significant impact on students attitudes (att). The results show that si can moderately affect att. Finally, it is noted that the social factor (sf) directly affects the students attitudes (att). Research/limitations/implications: this study contains three limitations. First, as this study only focuses on undergraduate programs, readers should be careful in applying the findings and/or implications of this study to other education levels such as k-12, vocational training and postgraduate programs. Second, the findings are generated within the context of one type of e-learning, conducted via google meet. Therefore, future research is needed to provide further validation and comparison across other forms of e-learning. Finally, to further prevent the common bias problem, future research should use both five-point and seven-point likert scales for the response options in the survey, as well as use negatively worded items. This will help prevent respondents from providing similar answers to all questions. Originality/value: this study has both theoretical and practical implications. From a theoretical perspective, the study can provide a solid framework for similar studies. From a practical perspective, this study offers implications for governments and universities in the process of adopting e-learning, given that the covid-19 pandemic is currently in its second and more dangerous wave. 2020, Emerald publishing limited. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | COVID-19; LEARNING HABIT; OCCUPATIONAL ASPIRATION; SCHOOL CLOSURE; SDG4; SECONDARY SCHOOL; SOCIOECONOMIC; SUSTAINABLE EDUCATION; VIETNAM; | The overspread of the novel coronavirus-sars-cov-2-over the globe has caused significant damage to manufacturing and service businesses, regardless of whether they are commercial, public, or not-for-profit sectors. While both the short-term and long-term impacts of most companies can be approximately measured or estimated, it is challenging to address the enduring effects of covid-19 on teaching and learning activities. The target of this research is to investigate students' manners of studying at home during the school suspension time as a result of covid-19. Through analyzing original survey data from 420 k6-12 students in hanoi, vietnam, this work demonstrates the different learning habits of students with different socioeconomic statuses and occupational aspirations during the disease's outbreak. In particular, we featured the differences in students' learning behaviors between private schools and public schools, as well as between students who plan to follow stem-related careers and those who intend to engage in social science-related careers. The empirical evidence of this study can be used for the consideration of the local government to increase the sustainability of coming policies and regulations to boost students' self-efficacy, as it will affect 1.4 Million students in hanoi, as well as the larger population of nearly 10 million vietnamese students. These results can also be the foundation for future investigations on how to elevate students' learning habits toward sustainable development goal 4 (sdg4)-quality education-especially in fanciful situations in which the regular school operation has been disrupted, counting with limited observation and support from teachers and parents. 2020 By the authors. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTIONS; ENTREPRENEURSHIP; ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION; IT STUDENTS; PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS; | In recent decades, the research field of entrepreneurship phenomenon has significantly increased in both quantity and sophistication. In vietnam, paradoxically, while creating a new business venture has become a tendency, the interest in studying entrepreneurs seems not to be thoroughly investigated. This research aims to evaluate the factors that affect the entrepreneurial intention of information technology (it) students in vietnam. The authors make use of mixed methods including both quantitative research method and qualitative research method. The qualitative research method is employed to identify meanings, confirmations, adjustments, and compliments for concept-measurement variables in the conceptual model. Quantitative research is conducted from a sample of 424 it senior students across many universities in vietnam. Questionnaires have been sent to students to evaluate the measurement scale and appropriateness of the research model. Results from multiple regression highlighted five independent variables affecting the dependent variable, the entrepreneurial intention, in a descending order as following: entrepreneurial educational environment, personal characteristics, perception of feasibility, entrepreneurial supports, and financial accessibility. In addition, this research has proved that the variable attitudes towards entrepreneurship partially mediated among the interrelationship of the aforementioned variables. From this research, the authors make some recommendations to enhance entrepreneurial intentions of it students in vietnam. The author(s). |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE; EFL; FACEBOOK; PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT; VIETNAM; | The emergence of online communities has redefined teachers professional development. Voluntary participation in online teacher communities offers possibilities for problemsolving, reflective thinking, knowledge exchanging, and social emotion sharing. However, little research has been conducted about the quality and depth of interactions among efl teachers while participating in online communities. In response to the call for rigorous research featuring the roles of online communities on teacher learning beyond the western contexts and the realities of participants contribution, this case study analyzed two facebook groups of vietnamese efl teachers using wengers (1998) analytical framework for communities of practice (cop). Facebook groups were adopted as an online cop platform because of its widespread social media penetration in vietnam-with users being 75% of the population (nguyen, 2019). Adopting a multiple-site case study design, the study surveyed 84 teachers and analyzed the content of selected posts and comments in two facebook groups in five months, focusing on members engagement, perceived benefits, and recommendations regarding their cop participation. Findings illustrate different realities of university lecturers and school teachers within the two facebook groups in lights of knowledge domains, sharing practice, and moderation activity. The paper offers insights for the design and administration of online cop in social media spaces. 2020, Call-ej. All rights reserved. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CAREER COUNSELLING; COUNSELING OFFICE; SCHOOL COUNSELING; SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY; VOCATIONAL ORIENTATION PROBLEMS; | School psychology is a field that has been receiving a lot of attention recently in vietnam as it prepares to restructure the general education curriculum. In particular, vocational orientation and career counseling are most concerned due to the emergence of new subjects in the educational curriculum-experimental and vocational orientation activities. The objective of this study is to investigate the current situation of vocational orientation problems and the need for career counseling of vietnamese high school students to provide evidence to develop the school counseling activities and the school psychology in vietnam. This is a quantitative study used a questionnaire to examine the current situation of vocational orientation problems and the need for career counseling of 1200 high school students in vietnam to illustrate the importance of vocational orientation work. The results showed that vietnamese high school students faced many vocational orientation problems and wanted support from school counselors. But the reality did not meet the needs of students: vietnamese schools lacked a team of school counselors both in quality and quantity, also lack of school counseling offices in almost high schools. This result is expected to contribute to the development of the school psychology in vietnam, but firstly, to promote the establishment of counseling office at least one office per school.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | Objectives adolescent wellbeing is critical to breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty and one in five of the world's adolescents live in india. We explored predictors of learning skills and depression in indian adolescents. Methods data on adolescents aged 10-19y (three groups: 5,840 unmarried males, 8,953 unmarried females, 4,933 married females) were available from the state-representative understanding the lives of adolescents and young adults survey in uttar pradesh and bihar. Multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for cluster sampling design and state fixed effects were used to examine factors (demographic, health/nutrition, social, and environmental) associated with three outcomes: reading proficiency, math proficiency, and depressive symptoms. Findings learning skills were poor (28-61% lacked basic reading and math skills depending on adolescent group and outcome) and depression was common (8-26%). Better learning skills were predicted by greater household wealth (aor 1.72-2.55 Depending on group) and household head education (aor 1.03-1.07 Per year), being in school (aor 4.19-18.65), Parental support (aor 1.11-1.39), Having gender equal attitudes (aor 1.56-2.67), Number of food groups consumed at least weekly (unmarried females: aor 1.11), And having an improved latrine (aor 1.33-1.51). Poorer learning skills were predicted by family substance use (aor 0.68-0.74), Underweight (males: aor 0.74), Witnessing parental violence (aor 0.66-0.78). Depressive symptoms were predicted by witnessing parental violence (aor 1.51-1.92) And experiencing sexual abuse (aor 2.30-6.16). Conclusion factors across multiple life dimensions are associated with learning skills and depression in indian adolescents. Adolescent-focused policies and programs should consider health/nutrition, social, and environmental aspects of life in vulnerable individuals. 2020 Scott et al.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CIRCULAR CONE; CONE; CONSTRUCTIVISM; DISCOVERY LEARNING; MATHEMATICS EDUCATION; SIMULATION-BASED LEARNING; TEACHING GEOMETRY; | Simulation-based teaching has been used in many training areas, including general education, the medical industry, military, aviation, and so on. The simulation-based teaching models are taken into account in models used for discovery learning. Hence, it is sometimes referred to as a method of teaching discovery based on simulation. This study restores the basic content of the simulation-based discovery, including the concept of simulation-based teaching, simulation-based teaching features, and some authors' findings that implemented simulation-based teaching. The study offers a simulation-based process of teaching mathematical concepts and applies them to teach the "circular surfaces" which is regarded as a quasi-experiment in 12th-grade geometry with posttest only nonequivalent groups design. Based on the results of quasi-experimental teaching, we initially have drawn significant results as follows: 1) simulation-based teaching increases the learning interest of students compared to traditional teaching methods; 2) because of the interest in learning together with self-discovery learning, the students' learning results in the experimental class are better than those of control class. One thing learned from practical teaching is that teachers applying simulation teaching need to use dynamic math software and spend a considerable amount of time in lesson design. This is one of the challenges for mathematic teachers in vietnam. Copyright 2020 by authors, all rights reserved.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | BAYESVL; DIGITAL AGE; DIGITAL LITERACY; DIGITAL RESILIENCE; PARENTAL EDUCATION; QUALITY EDUCATION; SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS; SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOAL 4; VIETNAM; | As a generation of 'digital natives,' secondary students who were born from 2002 to 2010 have various approaches to acquiring digital knowledge. Digital literacy and resilience are crucial for them to navigate the digital world as much as the real world; however, these remain under-researched subjects, especially in developing countries. In vietnam, the education system has put considerable effort into teaching students these skills to promote quality education as part of the united nations-defined sustainable development goal 4 (sdg4). This issue has proven especially salient amid the covid??19 Pandemic lockdowns, which had obliged most schools to switch to online forms of teaching. This study, which utilizes a dataset of 1061 vietnamese students taken from the united nations educational, scientific, and cultural organization (unesco)'s "digital kids asia pacific (dkap)" project, employs bayesian statistics to explore the relationship between the students' background and their digital abilities. Results show that economic status and parents' level of education are positively correlated with digital literacy. Students from urban schools have only a slightly higher level of digital literacy than their rural counterparts, suggesting that school location may not be a defining explanatory element in the variation of digital literacy and resilience among vietnamese students. Students' digital literacy and, especially resilience, also have associations with their gender. Moreover, as students are digitally literate, they are more likely to be digitally resilient. Following sdg4, i.E., Quality education, it is advisable for schools, and especially parents, to seriously invest in creating a safe, educational environment to enhance digital literacy among students. 2020 By the authors. |

Tiếng Anh | UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN SYDNEYUNIVERSITY OF WESTERN SYDNEY | CAUSAL AGENCY THEORY; DEEP LEARNING APPROACHES; POSITIVITY; QUALITY OF COLLEGE LIFE; SURFACE LEARNING APPROACHES; | Drawing upon the causal agency theory, this study examined the direct and indirect (via learning approaches) links between positivity and quality of college life (qcl) of business students in a transitioning market, vietnam. Two studies were conducted to test these relationships using structural equation modeling. Findings from study 1, based on a sample of 428 business students, showed that positivity was positively related to qcl. Further, deep learning approaches mediated the relationship between positivity and qcl. Findings from study 2, based on a sample of 416 business students, reconfirmed the role of positivity in qcl. However, the indirect relationship between positivity and qcl was not significant, demonstrating that surface learning approaches did not mediate the relationship between positivity and qcl. The findings contribute to the literature on positivity in higher education by confirming the overarching role that positivity plays, directly and indirectly (via deep learning approaches), in qcl. 2020 Elsevier ltd |

Our main findings show that the number of publications on social sciences from vietnam has increased significantly over the last two decades, and there was a spike in the scientific output for the recent three years when the number of publications accounted for 53.76% Of the collection. The most productive authors came from a few public research institutes with strong resources as the top 10 institutions participated in 44.22% Of the collection. Vietnamese scholars tend not to submit their works to high-ranking journals since five q1 journals in the top 10 publishing journals published only 6.17% Of the collection. For international collaboration, australia and the united states ranked first and second based on the number of publications and citations. Other countries in top 10 mostly located in europe and asia. Research topics were diverse focusing on gender, poverty, hiv, higher education and sustainable development. We suggest that supporting policies and funding need to be provided to help vietnamese scholars improve their works, and to boost their scientific production in the future. The author(s) 2020. |

Tiếng Anh | EUROPEAN COMMISSIONEUROPEAN COMMISSION | COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS; SCHOOL COUNSELING; SCHOOL COUNSELING MODEL; VIETNAMESE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS; | Many social problems in vietnam stem from communication conflicts among high school students. Over the years, teachers, educators, and school counselors have been working hard to solve this problem, but it has not been effective. On the other hand, vietnam does not yet have a general school counseling model that can solve these communication problems. By using the questionnaire, as well as conducting interviews with participants (students and teachers), we found that the communication problems of high school students are primarily based on the weakness in emotional management and overexpressing personal ego. Besides, gender, education, and family background also have some impact on communication problems and the need for communication problem counseling. This result is an essential basis for vietnamese to build a school counseling model to effectively support the reduction of social problems where perpetrators and victims are high school students.

Tiếng Anh | EUROPEAN COMMISSIONEUROPEAN COMMISSION | EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING; ON-THE-JOB TRAINING; WORK-BASED LEARNING; | As the first university founded by a private enterprise in vietnam, one of the main focuses of fpt university is on the practical knowledge and skills to help students perform well in the workplace. Thus, since its early days, the university has emphasized the importance of work-based training, and has been implementing a sandwich model of the curriculum which includes a compulsory work placement period called on-the-job training (ojt). This study therefore seeks to evaluate and analyze the current implementation of ojt at fpt university. Based on the findings, it is recommended that further effort should be made for the continuous improvement of the ojt, particularly in terms of supporting activities by the university's functional departments, faculty, and also by the industry. 2020 Acm. |
| Exploring Teachers Relational Agency in Contentlanguage Teacher Collaboration in Secondary Science Education in Australia | , , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | EUROPEAN COMMISSIONEUROPEAN COMMISSION | ENGLISH-AS-AN-ADDITIONAL-LANGUAGE; RELATIONAL AGENCY; SCIENCE EDUCATION; SOCIOCULTURAL THEORY; TEACHER COLLABORATION; | The mainstreaming of english-as-an-additional-language (eal) education necessitates collaboration between eal teachers and content teachers to support eal students learning in content areas. A question left open is how eal and content teachers exercise relational agency through professional dialogue and collaborative practices. The current paper examined this question through the concept of relational agency grounded in sociocultural theory. Data include group interviews with and self-recorded collaborative conversations between an eal teacher and a science teacher in planning and delivering science content in an australian secondary school. Findings reveal professional dialogue and collaborative practices created mediational spaces for them to exercise relational agency. They actively worked together on a complex problem and shared motive, built and utilised common knowledge, and drew on relational expertise in responding to the demands of enhancing eal students learning of language and content in the science classroom. Findings have implications for promoting teacher agency and quality collaboration. 2020, The australian association for research in education, inc. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONNATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION | ASP SOLVER; SPARC PROGRAMMING; VIRTUAL AGENT; VIRTUAL REALITY; | Answer set programming (asp) is a dominant programming paradigm in knowledge representation. It is used to build intelligent agents knowledge-intensive software systems capable of exhibiting intelligent behaviors. It is found that asp can also be used to teach computer science in middle and high schools. However, the current asp systems do not provide direct support for a programmer to produce an intelligent agent that a general user can directly interact with, which may greatly compromise the potential attraction of asp to the secondary school students. In this paper, we propose a virtual reality (vr) programming environment called vrasp that allows a student to produce an avatar (agent) in a virtual world that is able to answer questions in spoken natural language from a general user. The vr application is accessible from anywhere so that the students friends can interact with the agent. As a result, it gives the students a feeling of achievement and thus encourages them to solve problems using asp. Vrasp was evaluated with 10 users. Results of these studies show that students are able to communicate with the environment intuitively with an accuracy of 78%. 2020, Springer nature switzerland ag. |
| Operationalizing the Mentoring Processes as Perceived by Teacher Mentors | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALESUNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES | MENTORING PHASES; MENTORING PROCESSES; MENTORING RELATIONSHIP; PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE; | Mentoring plays a critical role in providing a quality professional experience for pre-service teachers in their initial teacher education. There have been numerous studies about pre-service teacher mentoring, yet actual mentoring practice still remains varied and poorly understood. Consequently, there is a need for mentoring processes that can enhance graduate teacher quality. In response to this call, this study aims to elucidate an understanding of how mentoring is operationalized, as perceived by the teacher mentor. Semi-structure interviews, with experienced teacher mentors, provided understanding on mentoring practices used within differing school contexts. These findings increase our understanding of actual mentoring processes that are used during the different phases of support for the preservice teachers. Understanding how the mentormentee relationship is operationalized has implications for supporting and enhancing quality mentoring experiences. 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. |

Tiếng Anh | OPETUS- JA KULTTUURIMINISTERIOPETUS- JA KULTTUURIMINISTERI | ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT; ADOLESCENCE; SCHOOL-WORK DIFFICULTIES; SELF-ESTEEM; SUBJECTIVE SCHOOL WELL-BEING; | This study seeks to explore the structure of subjective school well-being (swb) and the relation between swb, self-esteem and experienced schoolwork difficulties and some background variables of academically oriented students in their first year in upper-secondary education. First, the one-factor model in swb fitted the data best. Second, the findings from hierarchical regression analyses indicated that swb was affected by parents income, schoolwork difficulty and self-esteem. Third, self-esteem was influenced by gender and parents income, schoolwork difficulties and swb. The results suggest that parents income has a stronger effect on self-esteem than well-being, and boys have higher self-esteem than girls. We argue that students, especially girls, self-esteem and swb need to be strengthened through educational support and psychological guidance. 2020 The author(s) |

Tiếng Anh | OPETUS- JA KULTTUURIMINISTERIOPETUS- JA KULTTUURIMINISTERI | COMPUTATIONAL THINKING; COMPUTER SCIENCE; ENGLISH LEARNERS; INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING; MULTILINGUAL;; | Central to the theory of learning are inquiry-based approaches to education. Whereas there is a plethora of research on inquiry learning in the domain of science [19], [20], few studies have analyzed how inquiry-based learning can be applied to computer science education, and how different approaches to inquiry may benefit diverse learners. This is one of the first studies to analyze teacher enactment of inquiry-based learning during the implementation of an upper elementary, computational thinking curriculum, and to explore how teacher approaches to inquiry appear to support or constrain multilingual students' development of computational thinking and computer science identities. Design-based research was used to iteratively develop, test, and refine the inquiry-based curriculum, which aligns with computer science and literacy standards, provides linguistic scaffolding, and integrates culturally responsive materials. We adopt a cross-case mixed-methods design to collect data from five teachers and 149 students including detailed field notes, teacher interviews, student computational artifacts, and student identity surveys. Through analyses of teacher moves, we find that teachers adopt different approaches to inquiry that can be indexed along a continuum ranging from open to closed. Patterns in student data revealed that those who received more structured inquiry lessons developed more sophisticated computational artifacts and showed greater identification with the field of computer science. Findings from this study are being used to add more structured inquiry approaches to the next iteration of our curriculum, including integrating use/modify/create models into lessons and applying metacognitive strategies from reading research to students' programming activities. 2020 Ieee. |

The research found that at the national level, the policy is highly prescriptive, with expected uniformity and fidelity in implementation; however, at the same time, it is vaguely worded and inconsistent. At the local level, how school leaders interpreted the new policy varied according to their knowledge, experiences, values, and beliefs, making their implementations deviate from the original policys intent. Their policy interpretation and implementation were also shaped by systemic inequities in academic rankings and educational resources of schools that they led. 2020, 2020 Informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. | |

| Mentormentee Relationships as Anchors for Pre Service Teachers Coping on Professional Placement | , | 2020 RESEARCH ON EQUITY AND SUSTAINED PARTICIPATION IN ENGINEERING, COMPUTING, AND TECHNOLOGY, RESPECT 2020 – PROCEEDINGS | 2020 | ARTICLE |
Tiếng Anh | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYSWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY | COPING; LONELINESS; MENTORING IN EDUCATION; PRE SERVICE TEACHERS; PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE; | Purpose: mentormentee relationships are important for individual wellbeing, mental health, professional agency and confidence. In the context of an initial teacher education (ite) programme, these relationships become a key factor. Pre-service teachers capacity to cope on a professional placement is closely linked to the quality of the mentoring relationship. The purpose of this paper is to identify the negative coping strategies used by pre-service teachers who struggle to cope in a school placement in melbourne, australia, highlighting the importance of providing quality mentorship. Design/methodology/approach: a mixed-methods approach was used for the analysis of pre-service teachers coping on a teaching practicum and to identify common related beliefs. A total of 177 pre-service teachers, who have completed at least one supervised practicum participated in this study. The coping scale for adults second edition (csa-2) was administered alongside an open-ended questionnaire to identify frequently used coping styles and associated thoughts and beliefs. Findings: the results show that pre-service teachers who favour non-productive coping strategies were more likely to express feelings of loneliness, pointed at poor communication with their mentor and described thoughts about leaving the teaching profession. Originality/value: using the coping scale for adults in the context of practicum provides an insight into individual experiences. The implications of mentormentee relationships for individuals coping are highlighted. Initial teacher education programs and schools have significant roles in supporting mentormentee relationships and practical supportive interventions are offered. 2019, Emerald publishing limited. |

Tiếng Anh | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYSWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY | CLINICAL PLACEMENT; MENTAL HEALTH; NURSING STUDENTS; SIMULATION; | Undertaking a mental health clinical placement can be anxiety-provoking for nursing students at times. There is a need to adequately prepare undergraduate nursing students for clinical placement in a mental health setting in relation to their skills and confidence. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a mental health simulation workshop on the skills and confidence of nursing students in providing care to consumers living with a mental illness. The study also evaluated the design of the mental health simulation workshop from an educational perspective. A pre/post-test survey was administered to a cohort of n=89 australian pre-registration nursing students. Exploratory factor analysis identified three factors: mental health therapeutic engagement, mental health assessment skills, and mental health placement preparedness. Analyses of prepost differences indicated that all three factors were significantly different between the initial and follow-up responses, with follow-up responses being more favourable. The findings of this study demonstrate that there is value in including mental health simulated patient exercise as part of the learning strategies in the curriculum of pre-registration nurses. This has implications for the quality of care in the clinical environment and level of preparedness of these students nurses for mental health clinical placement where they will be providing care to consumers living with a mental illness under direct supervision. 2020 Australian college of mental health nurses inc. |

Tiếng Anh | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYSWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY | AUSTRALIA; COMPARATIVE INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS; EMPLOYABILITY; HIGHER EDUCATION; JAPAN; | The notion of employability has become a focal point of higher education in many countries strategies to prepare students for employment. Responses to this notion can differ largely from country to country and from university to university, based on their historical, political, and economic contexts. However, very little has been researched in terms of these differences. More investigation in this area is needed to conceptualise patterns of universities orientations towards the employment of their graduates. In this article, we utilised comparative institutional analysis as a conceptual framework to discuss differences in the practices deployed by universities in australia and japan to prepare their students for employment. We found that australian universities have widely applied the so-called potential maximisation mode with a focus on teaching technical knowledge and professional skills for increased employability. However, the results maximisation mode has been widely utilised by japanese universities, stressing the role of universities and academics in ensuring the use of actual graduates to connect students to potential industries directly or creating mentoring opportunities for current students and alumni. 2020 Herdsa. |

Tiếng Anh | U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONU.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCESINSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIAUNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA | CHILD CARE QUALITY; EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION; MEASUREMENT; | For decades, research on the quality of early care and education has helped identify features of those settings that play some role in promoting children's learning and development. We offer this brief commentary as a framework for considering not only the topic and papers in this special issue, but more importantly, as a motivating heuristic for next generation of research and development on the assessment and improvement of measuring quality. First, we present some observations on the contemporary debates about quality, including a discussion of effect sizes, causality, conducting horse race analyses, and bringing measures to scale. We then argue that making progress towards measuring quality requires the field to think carefully about the focus of assessment, tradeoffs between reliability and validity, the diversity of the classroom and teachers, and scientific and technical advances. Absent these considerations, individually and in terms of their integrative links, discussions or presentations of new and improved measures of quality will not help advance the understanding and appropriate use of such instruments. 2020 Elsevier inc. |

The current mixed-methods study utilized surveys and semi-structured interviews to explore the mental health literacy (mhl), stigmatoward mental illness, and perceived barriers toward help seeking at middle or high schools among 55 adolescents (81.8% Female; 50.0% Asianamerican, 44.6% Latinxamerican, 5.4% Asian/latinx bi-racial; m age = 17.13Years, sd = 2.33). Participants mhl was assessed using case vignettes that depicted adolescents with symptoms of depression or bulimia. Overall, 83.9% Of participants correctly recognized depression and 57.1% Correctly recognized bulimia from the vignettes. Stigma correlated with perceived helpfulness of the formal service providers (r = .37, P <.01). Qualitative analysis of participant interviews revealed important knowledge, attitudinal, and practical barriers that inhibit asian and latinxamerican adolescents from seeking help for mental health problems at school. The current work has implications to assist school personnel and mental health providers in understanding and reducing barriers to help seeking for asian and latinxamerican adolescents. 2019, Springer science+business media, llc, part of springer nature. |

Tiếng Anh | AMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION | CROWDSOURCING; DATA PROCESSING; K-12 EDUCATION; | Crowdsourcing has shown promise in education domains. For example, researchers have leveraged the wisdom of the crowd to process grading in moocs and develop learning resources. An untapped domain is harnessing the crowd to systematically process educational data in classrooms-data that provide key instructional insights but take time to process, such as paper-based assessments. In this paper, we describe an experiment of a crowdsourcing task to effectively process classroom-based data and explore the potential of crowdsourcing as a learning opportunity for the crowdworkers. We discuss implications for designing crowdsourced assessment tasks to yield both high quality output and enriching learning experiences for those involved in the crowdsourcing task. 2020 Owner/author. |

Tiếng Anh | AMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATIONAMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION | COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE; IDENTITY; IDENTITY NEGOTIATION; IMAGINED COMMUNITY; | Previous research on studying abroad has documented the value of exploring students' interactions with the members of their host community with a focus on the theoretical concepts of identity, imagined communities, and communities of practice. Following this line of research, this qualitative study breaks new ground through investigating how nine thai students studying in china navigated the complex process of identity negotiation in their imagined communities and communities of practice. This investigation revisits intercultural sensitivity, proximity and boundaries in exploring how the students' communities of practice afforded different opportunities to demonstrate their identities. The findings reveal that the students envisioned belonging to an imagined community of foreign students in china by demonstrating the identities of cross-cultural mediators and dedicated language learners. However, the misalignment between the students' imaginations and the realities in their host communities caused predicaments with their identity negotiation. The thai students' multi-layered experiences and the social contexts of chinese language learning influenced their identities, which in turn mediated their senses of belonging to imagined communities of chinese speakers, and their self-perceived chinese language competencies. Relevant pedagogical implications of the findings are discussed. 2020 Walter de gruyter gmbh, berlin/boston. |

The typing syntax of a program is error-prone, and device dependency makes it difficult to share newly created ar applications. This paper presents blocklyar, a novel web-based visual programming interface for creating and generating an ar application. This tool is intended for non-programmers (young learners and enthusiasts) who are interested in making an ar application. The goals of this tool are: (1) to help young learners and enthusiasts express their programming ideas without memorizing syntax, (2) to enable users to perceive their expressions, (3) to enable learners to generate an ar application with minimal effort, and (4) to support users by allowing them to share newly created ar applications with others. Blocklyar uses blockly for creating a palette of commands and ar.Js for transcribing commands into ar experience. The applicability of blocklyar was demonstrated through a use case where an existing ar application was recreated by using our tool. The result showed that our tool could yield an equivalent product. We evaluated the visual tool with the help of 66 users to gather perspectives on the specific benefits of employing blocklyar in producing an ar application. The technology acceptance model was adapted to assess an individuals acceptance of information technology. 2020 By the authors. Licensee mdpi, basel, switzerland. |

METHODS: QUESTIONNAIRES AND INTERVIEWS WERE ADMINISTERED TO 120 LOCAL RESIDENTS AND 1470 STUDENTS AND COLLEGE EMPLOYEES (OFFICE AND TEACHING STAFF) LIVING IN THE NEARBY COMMUNITIES. IN THE INTERVIEWS, THE RESEARCHER MADE EFFORTS TO EXPLORE IN-DEPTH INFORMATION BY PROVIDING PROMPTS IN ORDER TO CONFIRM, INTERPRET AND SUPPLEMENT THE QUANTITATIVE DATA COLLECTED FROM THE QUESTIONNAIRES. FINDINGS: ALL PARTICIPANTS RESPONDED THAT THE COLLEGES CONTRIBUTED GREATLY TO THE SOCIAL EQUITY THROUGH RENTALS, FOOD CONSUMPTION, AND OTHER SERVICES AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, THOUGH SOME LOCAL RESIDENTS TOOK A POSITIVE VIEW OF SOCIAL DIVERSITY, OTHERS WERE CONSERVATIVE. THE SOCIAL COHESIONS TOOK PLACE IN THE COMMUNITY WHERE ITS MEMBERS WERE WILLING TO WELCOME NEW CULTURES. MOST LOCAL RESIDENTS WERE NOT CONFIDENT ABOUT COMMUNITY SECURITY WHEN THERE WERE MANY NEW MEMBERS. NOISE AND TRAFFIC ALSO CAUSED MUCH CONCERN TO LOCAL RESIDENTS. IMPLICATIONS FOR RESEARCH AND PRACTICE: IT IS SUGGESTED THAT LOCAL RESIDENTS SHOULD DISTRIBUTE EQUITAL GAINS TO PHYSICALLY AND FINANCIALLY CHALLENGED PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY. OTHER IMPLICATIONS WERE GIVEN TO RESEARCHERS, POLICY MAKERS, COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND STUDENT TENANTS LIVING AROUND COLLEGE. FURTHER STUDIES CAN TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AS A RESULT OF THE EFFECTS OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. RESEARCHERS MAY ALSO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT MORE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN OTHER CONTEXTS. 2019 ANI PUBLISHING LTD. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. |

IN ORDER TO SUSTAINABLY GROW IN AN INCREASINGLY COMPETITIVE E-LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, IT IS CLEAR THAT UNIVERSITIES MUST PROVIDE E-LEARNING STUDENTS WITH HIGH QUALITY SERVICES. TO DO THIS, UNIVERSITIES ARE REQUIRED TO UNDERSTAND THE ATTRIBUTES THAT E-LEARNING STUDENTS USE TO EVALUATE SERVICE QUALITY. UNFORTUNATELY, LITTLE RESEARCH ON E-LEARNING SERVICE QUALITY HAS BEEN CONDUCTED. THIS STUDY DEVELOPED AND VALIDATED AN INSTRUMENT TO MEASURE STUDENT PERCEIVED E-LEARNING SERVICE QUALITY. BASED ON THE RELEVANT LITERATURE REVIEW AND USING RESPONSES FROM 1,232 E-LEARNING STUDENTS, THE AUTHORS VALIDATED A THREE-FACTOR E-LEARNING SERVICE QUALITY INSTRUMENT INVOLVING E-LEARNING SYSTEM QUALITY, E-LEARNING INSTRUCTOR AND COURSE MATERIALS QUALITY, AND E-LEARNING ADMINISTRATIVE AND SUPPORT SERVICE QUALITY. AMONG THESE THREE FACTORS, E-LEARNING SYSTEM QUALITY MAKES THE HIGHEST CONTRIBUTION TO OVERALL E-LEARNING SERVICE QUALITY, FOLLOWED BY E-LEARNING INSTRUCTOR AND COURSE MATERIALS QUALITY, AND E-LEARNING ADMINISTRATIVE AND SUPPORT SERVICE QUALITY. THIS SCALE PROVIDES A USEFUL MEASUREMENT FOR RESEARCHERS WHO WISH TO MEASURE E-LEARNING SERVICE QUALITY AND FOR UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATORS AND MANAGERS WHO WANT TO ENHANCE UNIVERSITIES E-LEARNING SERVIE QUALITY.

VIETNAM UNIVERSITIES ARE NOT HIGHLY REGARDED FOR THEIR TEACHING QUALITY AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. IT IS THEREFORE NECESSARY TO PROMOTE KNOWLEDGE SHARING THROUGH TWO CENTRAL PROCESSES: KNOWLEDGE DONATION AND COLLECTION AS WELL AS INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE OF LECTURERS. BASED ON A SAMPLE SIZE SURVEY OF 312 UNIVERSITY LECTURERS IN VIETNAM AND THE METHODS OF ANALYZING EXPLORATION FACTOR (EFA), FACTOR ANALYSIS (CFA), STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING (SEM) TO EXAMINE THE HYPOTHESES OF THE SURVEY, THE STUDY DETERMINES THAT TWO INDIVIDUAL FACTORS; NAMELY JOB SATISFACTION AND OTHER INVOLVEMENT SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCED KNOWLEDGE DONATION PROCESS. ONE INDIVIDUAL FACTOR ALSO POSITIVELY INFLUENCES KNOWLEDGE COLLECTION PROCESS, KNOWLEDGE SELF-EFFICACY, AND LECTURERS WILLINGNESS TO DONATE KNOWLEDGE TO IMPROVE INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE.

DATA FROM MULTIPLE IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS WITH TRANSITIONED TEACHERS, AND WITH FACULTY AND UNIVERSITY LEADERS, COMPLEMENTED BY OBSERVATIONS, WERE COLLECTED TO EXPLORE THE TEACHER AGENCY. THE CONCEPT OF FIGURED WORLDS [HOLLAND, D., LACHICOTTE JR, W., SKINNER, D., & CAIN, C. (1998). IDENTITY AND AGENCY IN CULTURAL WORLDS. CAMBRIDGE, MA: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS] PROVIDED A PRODUCTIVE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR UNDERSTANDING HOW THESE TEACHERS RESPONDED TO THE CHANGE. THE FINDINGS SHOW THAT TEACHERS RESPONSES TO THE TRANSITION WERE BOTH COMPLEX AND CONTRADICTORY. TEACHER AGENCY WAS NOT SIMPLY AN ACTION OF RESISTANCE OR ACCOMMODATION TO THE CHANGE, BUT RATHER WAS DYNAMIC AND MORE NUANCED. OTHER FEATURES OF TEACHER AGENCY SUCH AS THEIR INDUSTRIOUSNESS, THEIR PROFESSIONAL MANOEUVRING CAPABILITY, AND THEIR COLLECTIVE AGENCY WERE ALSO NOTED.

Tiếng Anh | CREIGHTON UNIVERSITYCREIGHTON UNIVERSITY | REGRESSION DISCONTINUITY; SCHOOL STARTING AGE; TEENAGE MARRIAGE; TEENAGE MOTHERHOOD; VIETNAM; | This paper examines the impact of school starting age on teenage marriage and motherhood in vietnam. The investigation uses data from the 2009 vietnam population and housing census and regression discontinuity methods to identify the causal effects of school starting age on teenage marriagea first in the literatureand early motherhood. Results show that girls who start school earlier are more likely to marry and/or give birth as teenagers than their counterparts who begin school later. School starting age impacts are heterogeneous across girl subgroups. The deleterious effects of starting school early are particularly pronounced for teenage girls who are members of ethnic minorities, whose mothers have relatively less education, and whose households are relatively poor. Girls that fall into these subgroups are more likely to benefit from a delay in school entry. Government may wish to adopt a more flexible approach to its age at entry regulations to allow disadvantaged girls the option of starting school later. 2019, Springer nature b.V. |

Tiếng Anh | CREIGHTON UNIVERSITYCREIGHTON UNIVERSITY | DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS; DEA; EFFICIENCY; MALMQUIST INDEX; PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES; | Since the undertaking of the reform policy, vietnamese private higher education has made remarkable contributions to a nation's socio-economic development via providing high qualified human resources to the labour market. In integration of the world's higher education, the 2005 higher education reform agenda (hera) has proposed an increase in private enrolments to 40% of total tertiary enrolments by 2020. Whether this target could be achievable as planned is still questionable. This paper aims to measure a productivity growth of private universities using the malmquist productivity index and examine if they can obtain the target of the 2005 hera. The findings indicate that private universities have regression in productivity at 8%. The main source of this regression results from a decline of technological innovation at 14%. Private universities could potentially fail to obtain the target of the 2005 hera. Policy implications are suggested for enhancing efficiency and productivity of private universities.

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH; INDEXING; PUBLISHING; RESEARCHERS; VIETNAM; | Despite several initiatives and policies that boost international-indexed publishing, the outputs of social sciences in general and educational science of vietnam in international academic databases such as clarivate web of science (wos) or scopus are still modest. This study examined the factors affecting international-indexed publishing among vietnamese educational researchers. A framework for determining the influential factors was developed comprising three dimensions (policies, capacities, and networking) with 15 sub-factors, and the analytic hierarchy process (ahp) model was employed to estimate the relative importance of these factors on international publishing. A survey of vietnamese educational researchers at higher education and research institutes was undertaken, of which 80 returned validated answers, which after analysis were reduced to 49. The study revealed that the most important factors were collaboration with domestic and international peers and receiving support from research assistants or supervisors. A closer investigation revealed differences between senior and junior researchers regarding issues such as the accessibility of scientific documents, research data, and time for research. Key points: there are greater stem than hss outputs from vietnam, although the growth of social science output is growing at a faster rate. Both senior and junior vietnamese educational researchers agree that local and international networking is a major factor in successful publication within internationally indexed journals. Junior educational researchers identify available time for research as a major limiting factor in international publication where it is not identified as such by senior researchers. Capacity-related factors for successful publication are perceived as less limiting than policy or networking factors among vietnamese researchers. 2020 The author(s). Learned publishing 2020 alpsp |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | CURRICULUM; EDUCATION; EDUCATION; INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS; INTERNATIONALITY; INTERPROFESSIONAL RELATIONS; MEDICAL; PHARMACY; | Background: to promote better collaboration for patient care, interprofessional education (ipe) is required in many health professions courses. However, successful ipe implementation at scale can be challenging because of complicated logistics and competing priorities. Implementing across multiple geographies adds further complexity. Objective: this paper describes the implementation of a full cohort ipe activity for medical and pharmacy students delivered at both the australian and malaysian campuses of monash university. Design: we designed a 150-minute, blended learning activity centred around asthma care for second-year medical and pharmacy students. Student perceptions were measured with a pre- and post-activity survey using the validated ten-item, three-factor, spice-r2 instrument. Analysis focused on differences between professions and countries. Results: all second-year medicine (n=301 in australia and n =107 in malaysia) and pharmacy students (n=168 in australia and n =117 in malaysia) participated in the learning activity. A total of 326/693 (47%) students participated in the associated research by completing both the pre- and post-activity surveys. The pre-activity survey showed significant differences in four items between medicine and pharmacy students in australia and two items in malaysia. Post-activity, we observed significant changes in 8/10 items when the two professions were combined. Specifically, we noted changes across the countries in perceptions of roles and responsibilities for collaborative practice and patient outcomes from collaborative practice. Conclusions: ipe across different professions and countries is feasible. Positive outcomes in role understanding and perceived patient outcomes are achievable through a context-sensitive, locally driven approach to implementation. Longitudinal experiences may be required to influence perceptions of teamwork and team-based care. 2020, 2020 The author(s). Published by informa uk limited, trading as taylor & francis group. |

In a sample of 2,031 low-income, 3- to 5-year-old children attending head start, we tested three measurement models: a higher order one-factor model, a seven-factor model, and a five-factor model. To explore the appropriateness of the drdp for use with diverse populations of young children, we used multiple group and differential item functioning (dif) analyses to determine whether the drdp works differently for dual language learners (dll) and non-dlls. The proposed five-factor structure fits the data best, with greater face and statistical validity. Using this conceptually driven factor structure, the multiple group analyses were robust for dll and non-dll preschool students. More than half of the items on the drdp displayed little dif. Items measuring emergent language and literacy exhibited dif favoring non-dll children. The author(s) 2019. |

THE AIM OF THE STUDY IS TO IDENTIFY THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE NEW TEXTBOOK SERIES ENABLES TEACHERS TO ACHIEVE THE AIM OF DEVELOPING COMPETENT INTERCULTURAL SPEAKERS. THE FINDINGS INDICATE THAT DESPITE AN ATTEMPT TO GLOBALISE THEIR CULTURAL CONTENTS, THE BOOKS DO NOT PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO CRITICALLY ENGAGE WITH THE MATERIALS FOR DEEP-LEVEL INTERCULTURAL LEARNING. THE BOOKS ALSO TEND TO PRESENT A STATIC VIEW OF CULTURE, WHICH MAY LEAD TO GENERALISATIONS AND STEREOTYPICAL ASSUMPTIONS, THUS UNHELPFUL IN FOSTERING CRITICAL CULTURAL AWARENESS AND RESPECT FOR DIVERSITY. WE ARGUE THAT IN ORDER TO USE THE BOOKS EFFECTIVELY TO FACILITATE STUDENTS INTERCULTURAL SKILLS, TEACHERS SHOULD BE GUIDED IN HOW TO EVALUATE AND CUSTOMISE THE BOOKS TO REFLECT CURRENT THINKING IN ELT AND INTERCULTURAL LANGUAGE TEACHING, AND TO SUIT THEIR TEACHING CONTEXTS. TO THIS END, GREATER AUTONOMY SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THEM IN TERMS OF TEXTBOOK MODIFICATION AND ADAPTATION. 2020 SELECTION AND EDITORIAL MATTER, LE VAN CANH, HOA THI MAI NGUYEN, NGUYEN THI THUY MINH, ROGER BARNARD. | |

THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THIS PAPER IS TO HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF VIETNAMESE STUDENTS MOTIVES AND DRIVES TO STUDY ABROAD. MORE SPECIFICALLY, THIS STUDY TARGETS STUDENTS STUDYING IN A PUBLIC RESEARCH UNIVERSITY IN ENGLAND. TO EXAMINE VIETNAMESE STUDENTS DECISION-MAKING PROCESSES FOR CHOOSING A UNIVERSITY, THE RESEARCH IS CONDUCTED IN TWO STAGES: FOCUS GROUPS AND THEN STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS. FINDINGS REVEAL THAT THE PRIMARY REASON WHY VIETNAMESE STUDENTS WANT TO STUDY ABROAD IS BECAUSE OF PARENTS DEMANDS AND ENGLISH HIGHER EDUCATION QUALIFICATIONS. SECONDLY, IT IS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO ACHIEVE BETTER QUALIFICATIONS TO IMPROVE JOB PROSPECTS. STUDENTS DO NOT FULLY TRUST AGENCIES; HOWEVER, THEY RECEIVE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF INFORMATION FROM AGENCIES AND SUBSEQUENTLY VERIFY THEIR INFORMATION WITH FRIENDS, ALUMNI, AND OTHER INDEPENDENT AUTHORITIES. REGARDING CHOOSING A UNIVERSITY, THE FIRST AND MOST INFLUENTIAL FACTOR IS TUITION FEES AND LIVING COSTS, FOLLOWED BY COURSE MODULES. IN GENERAL, STUDENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH COURSE MODULES AND SERVICES AT THE UNIVERSITY. ALTHOUGH THE FINDINGS ARE LIMITED TO THE SAMPLE RESPONDENTS THAT WERE VIETNAMESE STUDENTS AT THIS PARTICULAR UNIVERSITY, THEY ARE USEFUL FOR UNIVERSITY MANAGEMENT AND INTERNATIONAL RECRUITMENT OFFICES TO IMPROVE SERVICES PROVIDED TO STUDENTS DURING THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS. THIS STUDY PROVIDES A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF FACTORS INFLUENCING VIETNAMESE INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. 2019, (PUBLISHER NAME). ALL RIGHT RESERVED. |

PARTICIPANTS AND PROCEDURE OUR SAMPLE INCLUDED 1085 MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS, WHOSE AGE RANGES FROM 11 TO 14, FROM HANOI, WHICH IS A MAJOR CITY, AND BACKAN, WHICH IS A RURAL AREA. MEASUREMENTS INCLUDED: 1) AN EMOTIONAL DISORDER SCALE (EDS) THAT WAS DEVELOPED BY THE AUTHORS AND 2) A SELF-REPORT QUESTIONNAIRE USING A LIKERT SCALE ABOUT RELEVANT SCHOOL FACTORS, INCLUDING SCHOOL VIOLENCE, ACADEMIC PROBLEMS, PROBLEMS WITH TEACHERS, AND DISCIPLINE PROBLEMS. WE DEVELOPED THE EDS BASED ON THE STRESS, ANXIETY, AND DEPRESSION SYMPTOMS SPECIFIED IN THE DSM-5 AND THE CONNERS EMOTIONAL DISORDER SUBSCALE THAT INCLUDED SOMATIC, AFFECTIVE, COGNITIVE, AND BEHAVIORAL SYMPTOM MANIFESTATIONS. RESULTS THE RESULTS SHOWED THAT SCHOOL FACTORS WERE SIGNIFICANTLY CORRELATED WITH EMOTIONAL DISORDER RISK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS. SCHOOL VIOLENCE, ACADEMIC PROBLEMS, AND PROBLEMS WITH TEACHERS COULD PREDICT 39.6% OF EMOTIONAL DISORDER RISK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS, AMONG WHICH ACADEMIC PROBLEMS HAVE THE STRONGEST EFFECT AND COULD BEST PREDICT EMOTIONAL DISORDER RISK. THESE RESULTS SUGGEST THAT FUTURE RESEARCH SHOULD SCRUTINIZE ACADEMIC PRESSURE THAT MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS FACE IN ORDER TO DEVELOP EMOTIONAL DISORDER PREVENTION PROGRAMS THAT HELP STUDENTS. CONCLUSIONS SCHOOL FACTORS, ESPECIALLY ACADEMIC PROBLEMS, HAD A NEGATIVE INFLUENCE ON STUDENTS. WE SUGGEST THAT EDUCATORS SHOULD CONSIDER REDUCING THE ACADEMIC CHALLENGE AND WORKLOAD FOR PREVENTION OF EMOTIONAL DISORDER RISK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS. ADDITIONALLY, IT IS NECESSARY TO DEVELOP A CURRICULUM THAT MEETS THE COGNITIVE AND CULTURAL NEEDS OF STUDENTS FROM RURAL AREAS. 2019 TERMEDIA PUBLISHING HOUSE LTD.. |

THE RESPONDENTS INCLUDED 125 COLLEGE STUDENTS, RANGING FROM DIFFERENT SCHOOL YEARS AT TUAF AND CHOSEN THROUGH CONVENIENCE SAMPLING. A RESEARCHER-DESIGNED QUESTIONNAIRE WITH CRONBACHS ALPHA RELIABILITY COEFFICIENTS OF AT LEAST.834 WERE USED TO COLLECT DATA FOR THE STUDY. FINDINGS REVEALED WHICH SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES WERE MOST FREQUENTLY USED. FURTHERMORE, THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STUDENTS LEVEL OF USING SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES AND THEIR STUDY HABITS AND INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH THEIR FAMILIES, FRIENDS, AND TEACHERS. SPECIFICALLY, THE MORE FREQUENTLY STUDENTS USED SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES THE STRONGER THE POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THEIR STUDY HABITS AND INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS. THESE FINDINGS SUPPORTED PREVIOUS RESEARCH ON THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN SNSS AND BOTH THE ACADEMIC AND PERSONAL LIVES OF COLLEGE STUDENTS CONDUCTED WORLDWIDE. NAJP. |

IN DOING THE PRACTICUM, STUDENTS ARE NOT ONLY CONSIDERED AS LEARNERS, BUT THEY ARE ALSO REGARDED AS WORKERS IN THE JOB FORCE. MANY STUDENTS MIGHT NEED SUPPORT FROM THEIR UNIVERSITIES AS WELL AS FROM THE SUPPORTING SYSTEM IN THE HOST COMPANIES. THE PURPOSE OF THIS RESEARCH WAS TO INVESTIGATE THE STUDENTS' SATISFACTION WITH THEIR PRACTICUM PROGRAMS AND THE INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL FACTORS THAT WOULD AFFECT IT. PARTICIPANTS WERE 269 (68 MALES AND 201 FEMALES) SOPHOMORE AND JUNIOR UNDERGRADUATE BUSINESS STUDENTS FROM A UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN VIETNAM. EACH COMPLETED A SURVEY COLLECTED AFTER THEY FINISHED THEIR PRACTICUM WHICH CONSISTS OF DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION, QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONAL FACTORS (19 ITEMS), INDIVIDUAL FACTORS (20 ITEMS), AND OVERALL PRACTICUM SATISFACTION (4 ITEMS). CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS WAS CONDUCTED AND DELETED 6 ITEMS TO ACHIEVE CONVERGENT AND DISCRIMINANT VALIDITY. STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING WAS USED TO ANALYZE THE POTENTIAL MEDIATING EFFECTS OF ORGANIZATIONAL FACTORS ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL FACTORS AND PRACTICUM SATISFACTION. RESULTS SHOWED THE DIRECT EFFECT BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL FACTORS AND PRACTICUM SATISFACTION. A FURTHER MULTI-GROUP ANALYSIS FOUND A SIMILAR PATTERN OF THE PATH ON FEMALES AND MALES. THE RESULTS SUGGEST THE STUDENT'S KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS ARE CRUCIAL FACTORS WHICH RELATED TO THEIR PRACTICUM SATISFACTION, ORGANIZATIONAL FACTORS, ON THE OTHER HAND, ARE POSITIVELY CORRELATED WITH INDIVIDUAL FACTORS, HOWEVER, DO NOT AFFECT THEIR PRACTICUM SATISFACTION. 2019 ACADEMIC RESEARCH PUBLISHING GROUP. |

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | THIS STUDY AIMS TO INVESTIGATE THE POSITIVE IMPACTS AND CHALLENGES OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING AS A PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICE IN TEACHING ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE. IT APPLIED THE SOCIAL THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS BY DANSEREAU AND JOHNSON (1994) AND BY JOHNSON AND JOHNSON (2009). FIFTY PARTICIPANTS (TWENTY EFL TEACHERS AND THIRTY EFL STUDENTS) FROM SEVERAL DIFFERENT COLLEGES IN VIETNAM WERE INTERVIEWED. THE RESULTS SHOWED THAT STUDENTS GAINED GROUP WORK SKILLS, PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS, AND CONFIDENCE. HOWEVER, THEY SUFFERED CHALLENGES IN REPORT MAKING AND RELATIONSHIPS. WHILE SOME STUDENTS REPORTED BENEFITS IN COMMUNICATION, OTHERS REVEALED THAT IT WAS CHALLENGING. THE BENEFITS OR CHALLENGES WERE MAINLY THE RESULTS OF THE PARTICIPANTS COMPLIANCE WITH THE FIVE PRINCIPLES OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING. IT IS IMPLIED FROM THE STUDY THAT EFL TEACHERS APPLYING COOPERATIVE LEARNING SHOULD PLAY THEIR KEY ROLE AS COUNSELLOR AND SUPERVISOR TO HELP STUDENTS OVERCOME PROBLEMS ARISING FROM THE TASKS AND SOCIALISATION. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO STRUCTURE INTERDEPENDENCE AND MUTUAL RESPECT AMONG GROUP MEMBERS BEFORE COOPERATIVE LEARNING COMMENCES. FURTHER STUDIES CAN EXPLORE THE IMPACTS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING IN OTHER DISCIPLINES AND CONTEXTS. 2019, WESTERN AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE FOR EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH INC.. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. | |

Tiếng Anh | AUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCILAUSTRALIAN RESEARCH COUNCIL | ASSESSMENT TASK; COMPETENCE-BASED ASSESSMENT; CORE COMPETENCE; PEDAGOGICAL COMPETENCE; | WITH THE TENDENCY OF SHIFTING FROM KNOWLEDGE-BASED EDUCATION INTO COMPETENCE-BASED EDUCATION, ASSESSMENT IS NOT ONLY OF LEARNING BUT ALSO FOR AND AS LEARNING. IN COMPETENCE-BASED EDUCATION, COMPETENCE-BASED ASSESSMENT (CBA) IS A PROCESS OF COLLECTING EVIDENCE AND MAKING JUDGMENTS ON WHETHER COMPETENCE HAS BEEN ACHIEVED AND REGULATING TEACHING AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES. INTEGRATING CBA INTO INSTRUCTION PROVIDES STUDENTS WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO SELF-CONSTRUCT THEIR COMPETENCES BY APPLYING ACADEMIC KNOWLEDGE TO SOLVE ASSESSMENT TASKS WELL RELATED TO REAL-WORLD CONTEXTS. THIS PAPER REFERRED TO INTERNATIONAL DISCUSSIONS ON THE TERM OF CBA, THE MEANING OF INTEGRATING CBA INTO INSTRUCTION AND PROPOSING A PROCESS OF INTEGRATING CBA INTO INSTRUCTION PEDAGOGICAL SUBJECTS FOR DEVELOPING CORE COMPETENCES OF STUDENTS. THIS PAPER ALSO ANALYZED THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROBLEM-SOLVING COMPETENCE AND PRESENTATION COMPETENCE OF 33 FOOD TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION STUDENTS AND 22 GARMENT TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION STUDENTS AFTER DEALING WITH THE ASSESSMENT TASKS INTEGRATED INTO INSTRUCTION GENERAL PSYCHOLOGY AND VOCATIONAL EDUCATION SUBJECTS AND PRESENTING THE RESULTS AT HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY AND EDUCATION. FINALLY, SOME MINOR SUGGESTIONS FOR DEVELOPING CORE COMPETENCES OF TECHNICAL AND VOCATIONAL EDUCATION STUDENTS THROUGH INTEGRATING CBA INTO INSTRUCTION PEDAGOGICAL SUBJECTS BY CAREFULLY CONSIDERING THE CONSISTENCY OF COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES, TEACHING-LEARNING ACTIVITIES AND ASSESSMENT WERE DISCUSSED.

A GROUP OF 1,200 CHILDREN (449 BOYS AND 751 GIRLS FROM GRADE 6 THROUGH 12) FROM SEVEN HIGH SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED IN THE SURVEY. THEY COMPLETED A 24-ITEM QUESTIONNAIRE ABOUT THEIR STUDY OBSTACLE AND ACADEMIC ADVISING NEED. THE RESULTS SHOWED A SIGNIFICANT POSITIVE CORRELATION BETWEEN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS' CURRENT EXISTING OBSTACLES AND THEIR NEED FOR ACADEMIC ADVISING. MOREOVER, THE AVERAGE POINT OF HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS' CURRENT EXISTING STUDY OBSTACLES WAS 2.67 AND THE NEED FOR ACADEMIC ADVISING WAS 3.18. THE RESULTS SUGGESTED HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FACING OBSTACLES IN THEIR STUDY HAVE THE NEED TO BE CONSULTED ON THESE DIFFICULTIES. DIFFERENT SCHOOL LEVELS AND LIVING CONDITIONS RESULT IN DIFFERENT CURRENT OBSTACLES AND NEEDS OF ACADEMIC ADVISING DURING THEIR STUDY. 2019 THE AUTHORS AND IJLTER.ORG. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. |

A QUESTIONNAIRE SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED AS PART OF THE STUDY, INCLUDING 320 ACADEMIC STAFF AT HANOI UNIVERSITY, ONE OF THE LEADING PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN VIETNAM. THIS STUDY APPLIES THE STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELLING (SEM) TO INVESTIGATE THE RESEARCH MODEL BASED ON SOCIAL COGNITIVE THEORY (SCT). THE RESULTS SHOW THAT TWO ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS (SUBJECTIVE NORMS AND TRUST) AND TWO PERSONAL FACTORS (KNOWLEDGE SELF-EFFICACY AND ENJOYMENT IN HELPING OTHERS) SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCE KSB. THE RESULTS ALSO INDICATE THAT EMPLOYEE WILLINGNESS TO SHARE KNOWLEDGE ENABLES THE ORGANISATION TO PROMOTE INNOVATIVE WORK BEHAVIOUR. THE STUDY CONTEXT WAS LIMITED TO ONLY ONE VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITY. IT APPEARS THAT THE PART OF A BIGGER PICTURE OF KNOWLEDGE SHARING (KS) IN VIETNAMESE UNIVERSITIES IS LIKELY TO BE LOST. HOWEVER, GIVEN THE PREVIOUS STUDIES ON KNOWLEDGE SHARING IN BOTH DEVELOPED AND DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, IT COULD BE EXPECTED THAT THE RESULTS OF THIS STUDY CAN BE TAKEN FORWARD BY UNIVERSITY LEADERSHIPS, ACADEMIC STAFF AND RESEARCHERS IN OTHER CONTEXTS AS WELL. A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF THE CRITICAL FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE KSB TOWARDS PROMOTING INNOVATIVE WORK BEHAVIOUR MAY HELP UNIVERSITY LEADERS TO DEVELOP SUITABLE AND EVOLVING STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF KNOWLEDGE SHARING. THIS STUDY CONTRIBUTES TO THE GROWING LITERATURE ON THE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG ENVIRONMENTAL AND PERSONAL FACTORS AND KSB TOWARDS PROMOTING INNOVATIVE WORK BEHAVIOUR. 2019 WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHING CO. |

Tiếng Anh | NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT | VIETNAM IS UNDERGOING A COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATIONAL REFORM. INNOVATION WITHIN THE CURRICULUM REQUIRES A CONTENT-BASED APPROACH TO BE REPLACED BY A COMPETENCE-BASED APPROACH IN WHICH CRITICAL THINKING IS STRESSED IN EDUCATING PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS. THIS STUDY AIMS TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT TO WHICH CRITICAL THINKING IS IMPLEMENTED IN CURRENT PRIMARY SCHOOL MORAL EDUCATION CLASSES TO PROVIDE A KNOWLEDGE BASE FOR DESIGNING A NEW MORAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM THAT CAN BE EFFECTIVE IN TEACHING CRITICAL THINKING TO VIETNAMESE PRIMARY STUDENTS. IT REVEALS THAT DESPITE A GENERALLY POSITIVE ATTITUDE TOWARD THE USE OF CRITICAL THINKING BY STUDENTS, CRITICAL THINKING IS STILL CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED ONLY TO A LOW EXTENT IN MORAL EDUCATION CLASSES. THE STUDY REINFORCES THE BELIEF ABOUT THE DEEP INFLUENCES OF CONFUCIAN HERITAGE CULTURE ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CRITICAL THINKING THAT PRIMARY TEACHERS AND STUDENTS USE IN THEIR CLASSROOM PRACTICES. IT RECOMMENDS THAT CRITICAL THINKING SHOULD BE MORE WIDELY FOSTERED IN MORAL EDUCATION IN VIETNAM WITH ATTENTION NEEDED TO BE GIVEN TO CULTURAL FEATURES AND DIVERGENCES. THE STUDY SUGGESTS THE APPLICATION OF A SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIVIST PERSPECTIVE AND TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING TO A NEW DESIGN OF THE MORAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM WITH A VIEW TO IMPROVING CRITICAL THINKING AND SOCIOCULTURAL VALUES AMONG STUDENTS. 2019, WESTERN AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE FOR EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH INC..
