The workshop was organized to fulfill the task of improving the quality of philosophy training and to implement Resolution No. 20/TrH on the implementation of the Basic Science Research Project. The workshop aimed to gather information, research results, and exchange and summarize practical experiences related to issues concerning curriculum development, content, and conditions for improving the quality of philosophy training and teaching at Vietnam National University, Hanoi and other universities and academies.
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tuan delivered the opening remarks at the conference.
In his opening remarks at the workshop, Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Anh Tuan emphasized the importance of philosophy as a useful tool to help students develop their knowledge and abilities in professional activities, serving society and contributing to national development. This necessitates that philosophy teachers approach the subject with caution, utilizing their full potential, dedication, and responsibility. Furthermore, given the ever-changing landscape of philosophy education both domestically and internationally, training institutions must constantly update their curricula, teaching content, and assessment methods to keep pace with these changes. Through this workshop, the Faculty of Philosophy hopes to find solutions to improve the quality of philosophy education for students in the field, and more broadly, for students in other disciplines.
