Discussion on Vietnamese educational philosophy humanism − nationalism − creativity

Tóm tắt

Any nation in its developmental trajectory must prioritize education. For Vietnam, “talents are the vital breath of the nation” and 
 “an ignorant nation is a weak nation”. Thus, at every stage of national building and development, education is invariably emphasized. Investment in education is recognized as an investment in the future, an investment in development. However, to ensure that education aligns precisely with the objectives of human and national development at each historical stage, it is essential to accurately define and target the right educational philosophy. The right educational philosophy aims to guide the basic ideological orientation that dominates the entire educational and training process in each specific period. Constructing a contemporary educational philosophy is necessary, not only to meet the demands of the new era but also as a basis for developing goals, content, and educational methodologies.
