Constructive suggestions
The draft attracted many comments and shares from comrades at the conference. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Huu Duc said: "VNU very much welcomes the Party Committee of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, comrades have been very proactive in building this important action program". However, in order for this draft to be put into practice more effectively, the Party Committee of the University needs to identify the fundamental factors in the orientation of fundamental and comprehensive innovation, otherwise it will fall into the old path, old way of thinking and cannot develop quickly. Comrade Nguyen Huu Duc shared some suggestions for the Party Committee of the University:
- We should focus on identifying new keywords, because without them we will not have a foundation and comprehensiveness.
- In the development orientation, development should be oriented according to the area and points. Comrade Nguyen Huu Duc shared: In reality, the current research projects and scientific topics of VNU in general and of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in particular, mostly still stop at the area, points, bright spots, and big points still have many shortcomings, not yet fully promoted.
- Should focus on the team of highly qualified staff, leading staff, leading staff. Focus on going early, going fast in treating and caring for this team of staff. Because these are the general engineers who create the brand and reputation, bringing the position of the School to a long, far and sustainable level.
Prof. Dr. Nguyen Huu Duc, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Deputy Director of VNU, spoke at the conference.
In addition to the comments and suggestions of the Vice President of VNU, the draft also received many comments from other comrades in the conference. According to Associate Professor, Dr. Doan Duc Phuong, Head of the Faculty of Literature, the draft of this action program should further emphasize political and ideological education, because ideological education currently has a great impact on the development of the country's socio-politics, especially at the present time. We must regularly educate so that lecturers, trainees and students understand the sense of responsibility for the development of the School, of the unit, the sense of responsibility of individuals for the development of society and of the country.
Associate Professor, Dr. Doan Duc Phuong, Head of the Faculty of Literature, contributed comments on the draft action program.
Agreeing with the opinion of comrade Doan Duc Phuong, MSc. Ngo Thi Kieu Oanh (Deputy Head of the Organization and Personnel Department) also shared: Among the goals, we must immediately put the issue of political and ideological work first. Because only when we have a thorough understanding of political and ideological work can other activities be carried out well.
MSc. Ngo Thi Kieu Oanh contributed her opinion at the conference.
Comrade Ngo Kieu Oanh also shared: The draft of this action program requires us to have a strong and comprehensive change in all areas of the School's activities, so the content of this action program should, on the one hand, closely follow the spirit of the resolution, and at the same time, we also need to closely follow the content areas of the School's work.
On behalf of the conference chair, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van Khanh, Party Committee Secretary and Principal of the School concluded the conference: Based on the action program of the School Party Committee, the Party Cells will concretize and develop into action programs of the Party Cells, directing the units to implement in the coming time, first in the upcoming school year and then on a longer roadmap, 5 years or 10 years.
To be able to build that specific action program, the Party Cells must answer the following questions:
- What is the goal of educational innovation in general or of training and research activities of your unit?
- What innovation? What new content focus?
- How to innovate? And how to innovate? Focus on solutions to implement innovation.
Based on the outlined roadmap, after each school year we will review and evaluate what we have accomplished? What have we not accomplished? Based on that, we will develop plans for the following school years. Focus on developing a specific action plan, avoiding generalities.
The conference also organized the awarding of certificates of merit from the Party Committee of VNU to collectives and individuals of the Party Committee of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities.
