The growth of information technology is changing the way of teaching and learning in higher education. E-learning system is a part of this change, which help students and instructions interact become easier. Learning management system (LMS) becomes more innovative and useful for learning activities regarding time and location. This paper examine the mediating role of perceived usefulness and self-efficacy on student satisfaction of LMS. We adopted the extended information system (IS) success model with perceived usefulness and self-efficacy as mediator. The model was tested with 220 students in University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City who use a LMS for most of the course they took. Partial least squares (PLS) technique is employed to test the possible mediating effects. The PLS analysis results revealed that Perceived usefulness fully mediate the relationship between service quality to learner satisfaction of LMS. Furthermore, research found that Perceived usefulness play as partially mediator which mediate the relationship between information quality and system quality with learner satisfaction

In this article, the author describes the outline of experiential teaching and learning activities such as project-based learning, learning games and so on. Besides, this article also focuses on organizing mini project-based learning activities and learning games in the experiential teaching of System Thinking subject at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Education. Combination of both qualitative (observation, interview, practical product-based research) and quantitave (rubrics) research methods were applied to identify gradually changes of the core competences (collaboration and problem-solving) of technical students through participating in the experiential learning activities. Some minor suggestions are made on organizing the experiential learning activities in cohesion with learning outcomes, teaching and learning activities as well as using assessment to improve the core competences of technical students

The development of scientific research in the university as well as the development of research university models is increasingly attracting the attention of many scholars as well as scientific and educational policy makers of many countries around the world, including developing countries. Developing scientific research in the university as well as building the research university model is quite expensive and requires a developed national institutional environment to a certain extent. However, the development of scientific research in universities in general and research universities in particular has a particularly important mission in national sustainable development and requires countries, including developing countries and every university needs to have appropriate solutions and steps. This paper contributes to the clarification of the role and the application of theories to explain the role of university’s scientific research.

Besides the formal education mode, constant education mode plays an important role and function in meeting with needs of human resources to help decrease the gap of level of production and social life in Viet Nam compared with developing countries in the region and in the world, integrate Vietnamese education into regional and global education, which is developing continuously. To make sure of the above missions, aside from diversifying modes of training, constant education mode requires evaluating and understanding the roles, functions together with opportunities and challenges of this mode correctly to support and influence it positively. In the process of human resource training in the Mekong Delta during this time, it is undeniable to mention the role of Can Tho University, which makes a great effort to maintain and develop the effectiveness of constant education mode

Strategy is the end product of strategic planning process, which normally also incorporates the control mechanisms for guiding the implementation of the strategy. Strategic planning looks into the future to paint a picture of that future based on current trends. This presentation describes the strategic planning process of developing the Malaysian Education Blueprint 2013-2025, which is used a reference to transform the Malaysian education system in accordance to the demand of 21st century. The Blueprint was developed with three objectives: 1) Understanding the current performance and challenges of the Malaysian education system, with a focus on improving access to education, raising standards (quality), closing achievement gaps (equity), fostering unity amongst students, and maximizing system efficiency, 2) Establishing a clear vision and aspirations for individual students and the education system as a whole over the next 13 years; and 3) Outlining a comprehensive transformation program for the system, including key changes to the Ministry. Multiple perspectives of inputs were considered in the development of the Blueprint. These included inputs and assessment from various experts and agencies from international and local, the general public and analysis of past policies documents and research reports. From these inputs, two aspirations were established - firstly, those for the education system as a whole, and secondly, those for individual students. These two aspirations set the stage for transformation of the Malaysian education system. The Blueprint suggested 11 shifts that will need to occur to achieve the envisioned education’s goals. Each shift addresses at least one of the five system outcomes of access, quality, equity, unity and efficiency, with quality as the common underlying focus across all shifts because this dimension requires the most urgent attention. Each shift comes with the underlying initiatives. As such, prioritization of initiatives is crucial to avoid overtaxed and execution fatigue and transformation is sequenced to occur in three waves. To ensure successful transformation as envisioned in the Blueprint, the Ministry has identified and committed to four differentiated actions in delivering the roadmap

Geometric thinking is considered to be one of the most controversial thinkings. Many researches have observed that children have various opportunities to cultivate the elements of geometric thinking at different levels throughout mathematical activities. Having experimented, we found out that these puzzle games are both attractive and potential to develop visualization, imagination and thinking in terms of shapes. Tri Uan is a seven-piece tangram, which is popular in Vietnam. This article presents the research of geometric thinking components and geometric activities through Tri Uan in order to develop geometric thinking at each level in children.

SOGIE-related school violence covers sexuality and gender-identity/ expression-related bullying and other violent acts and threats, occurring in and around educational contexts. These may result in physical, verbal, sexual, psychosocial or technology-related harm to children. It is based on gender and sexuality stereotypes, particularly roles and norms expected of children because of the privileging of heterosexual norms and gender roles in society. The study on SOGIE-related school violence in secondary schools of Viet Nam revealed some important findings on the level of SOGIE-related violence that LGBT students experienced in schools, their perception of school safety, as well as their responses to this form of school violence. Based on the evidence collected from the study results, several recommendations were proposed, including those for policy makers, curriculum developers, and schools, to prevent SOGIE-related school violence and build a safe, healthy school environment for all learners.
