To
improve the quality of teacher training in the coming time, the
managing committee of ETEP (Enhancing Teacher Education Programme)
organized an investigation at Vinh University jointly with the World
Bank to improve the indicators TEIDI (Teacher Education Institutional
Development Index) on January 6, 2017. The delegation included Mr.
Michel Wwelmond (WB), Mrs. Nguyen Ninh (WB), Mr. Fabrice Henard (WB),
Mrs. Nguyen Kim Dung (WB), Mr. Nguyen Danh Nam (ETEP) and Ms. On Thi My
Linh (ETEP). On behalf of Vinh University, Prof. Dinh Xuan Khoa and
representatives from departments of Academic Affairs, Student Affairs,
Postgraduate Studies, Research and International Affairs, Personnel
Management, Administrative Affairs, Facilities and Investment
Management, IT Centre and Education met and worked with the delegation.
At the meeting, Prof. Dinh Xuan Khoa emphasized the tradition of teacher
training of Vinh University and its policies on teacher training in the
coming years. He also noted that human resource for teacher training is
an important indicator which has not been mentioned in the indicators
TEIDI. On behalf of the delegation, Mr. Michel Welmond thanked Vinh
University for the hospitality and cooperation, and defined the goal of
their visit to Vinh University. After the leaders’ concerns, the members
of the delegation asked several questions on teacher education at Vinh
University: curriculum, personnel affairs, facilities, application of IT
in teacher education, e-learning, etc. based on TEIDI indicators.
Representatives from related departments answered the questions by
focusing on their fields of management. They also mentioned the strength
and weakness of teacher education, and development strategies in the
coming time. All presentations focused on answering questions raised by
the group of experts in order to complete TEIDI indicators. The research
in favour of education was also mentioned to demonstrate Vinh
University’s development strategies.
With
a high responsibility, straightforwardness and concentration by Vinh
University’s participants, the delegation got the overview of teacher
education at Vinh University. They confirmed that all information
provided by Vinh University was very important to complete TEIDI
indicators in the coming time.
