The findings indicate that management has been implemented across various aspects, reaching from moderate to fairly good levels, with planning and task assignment being most highly evaluated. However, certain areas remain limited, including resource mobilization, communication of plans, staff motivation, and the use of evaluation results to adjust activities. Based on these findings, the study proposes five key measures to improve the quality of managing cooperative skills education, thereby contributing to the sustainable and effective development of children’s cooperative competence

This article aims to evaluate the current situation of foreign language teaching management at Hue ICP Foreign Language and Informatics Center (hereafter referred to as the Center) in order to improve the effectiveness of teaching management, ensure training quality, and enhance learners’ proficiency — especially in the context of national integration into the global community. Based on survey results collected through interviews and questionnaires with 5 administrators, 36 staff members, and 21 teachers, the study shows that the Center has implemented teaching plan development, management of teaching and learning activities, teaching support conditions, assessment practices, and organizational management in an objective and effective manner. Regular adjustments have been made and have achieved relatively good outcomes. However, there still exist certain difficulties and limitations, such as the limited effectiveness of management and the need for further improvements in training quality to meet practical demands. Notably, many aspects of teaching and learning management at the Hue ICP Center require renewal and innovation. The research findings serve as a foundation for proposing measures to develop the teaching and administrative staff, as well as strategic plans for improving the Center’s teaching and learning activities in the future.

This study aimed to examine the current status of mental health and psychological resilience of special education teachers in Ho Chi Minh City and examine the relationship between these two factors. The study was designed using a descriptive cross-sectional method with 238 special education teachers. The tools used included the DASS-21 scale (Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995) to assess mental health and the CD-RISC-10 (Campbell-Sills & Stein, 2007) to assess psychological resilience. The results of the study showed that more than 60% of teachers had normal levels of depression, anxiety, and stress; 51.7% had normal levels of anxiety; however, there was still a significant proportion of teachers at severe and very severe levels. The average score of psychological resilience was quite average (34.34/50 points). There was a significant negative correlation between psychological resilience and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress (p < 0.05). This result confirms the key role of strengthening psychological resilience training programs and emotional support to protect the mental health of special education teachers, contributing to improving the quality of teaching and care for students with special needs.

Life values education for junior high school students plays an important role in shaping personality and positive behavior in life situations.

Self-learning is the process in which individuals actively seek, study, and acquire knowledge and skills without direct guidance from others. This article evaluates the management of self-study activities (SSA) among ethnic minority students at A Luoi Lower Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, Thua Thien Hue province, within the implementation of the 2018 General Education Curriculum. The survey involved 03 administrators and 32 teachers. Findings show that SSA management has achieved positive results in several aspects, including planning, coordination of stakeholders, provision of learning facilities, and assessment. The mean scores ranged from “fairly good” to “good,” with the highest ratings given to collaborative planning and the mobilization of social resources. However, limitations remain in establishing steering committees, providing systematic training on self-study skills, and maintaining regular monitoring and evaluation mechanisms. The results serve as a basis for proposing measures to improve the quality of SSA management, thereby contributing to the goals of comprehensive educational reform in Vietnam

The strong development of information technology has brought many great benefits in teaching and learning, especially contributing to the innovation of teaching methods and improving the quality of education. This article presents the results of a survey on the current status of information technology application in teaching at primary schools in Hue city, Thua Thien Hue province through the questionnaire method. The research results show that the application of information technology in teaching at primary schools still has many limitations, reflected in the awareness and application capacity of teachers and students, as well as in the conditions of facilities and teaching equipment. This situation is an important basis for proposing appropriate solutions to improve the effectiveness of information technology application, thereby contributing to improving the overall quality of education in schools.

This article presents findings on managing Living Values Education (LVE) activities for students at Bui Van Thu Secondary School in Ho Chi Minh City. The study employed questionnaires and interviews with 17 administrators, 51 teachers, and staff to evaluate the management of goals, content, methods, stakeholder coordination, organizational conditions, and LVE outcome assessment. Management practices were implemented frequently and rated as fairly effective. Low standard deviations ( < 1.0) showed strong consensus among respondents. Correlation analysis revealed a statistically significant, positive link between implementation and effectiveness across all areas. However, effectiveness scores were always lower than implementation levels, especially in content delivery, pedagogy, coordination, and organizational conditions. These findings expose current limits in managing LVE. Identified causes include both objective factors, such as resources and coordination, and subjective factors, including awareness, management skills, and school culture. The study offers practical evidence to propose ways to improve LVE management for lower secondary students during ongoing educational reforms.
