At the seminar "Innovating Teaching and Learning Methods to Adapt to the Development of Technology and Artificial Intelligence" organized by the National Economics University, Dr. Nguyen Quang Huy (School of Technology, National Economics University) assessed the advantages and challenges for lecturers and students in the face of the impact of artificial intelligence (AI).

AI is a tool that supports students and faculty in learning, teaching, and scientific research. |
For lecturers, Mr. Huy believes that AI has a positive impact by improving the quality of teaching and supporting scientific research. For students, AI helps optimize learning time and efficiency, develop proactive thinking and learning, and support foreign language and skills learning.
AI simultaneously poses numerous challenges for both faculty and students. Students' reliance on AI diminishes their ability to think independently and critically, they lack the skills to verify information, are easily misled, rely on unofficial sources, struggle with personal development, and face increased competition in the workplace, among other issues.
Risks to academic integrity
According to Dr. Le Quang Minh, Deputy Director of the Institute of Information Technology, Vietnam National University, Hanoi , a survey conducted at Vietnam National University, Hanoi, showed that over 77% of the surveyed lecturers use AI applications.
The majority of instructors have a positive view of the application of AI in teaching (a total of 68.2% believe AI is very effective or effective). However, 25.9% of instructors do not yet consider AI to be highly effective.

The survey results also indicated that the biggest factors affecting faculty's use of AI are a lack of knowledge and skills (over 70%); a lack of time (over 57%); a lack of facilities (nearly 50%); and a lack of support from the school (over 42%).
Experts have identified challenges and limitations in the use of AI, including: dependence on AI (over 88% of students); and academic ethics and integrity (over 82%).

Vocational school management in the age of artificial intelligence.Artificial intelligence (AI) is creating profound changes in vocational schools. Beyond being integrated into teaching, AI is also supporting schools in managing, organizing training, and serving students more effectively. In the context of a rapidly developing digital economy, this is also a direction for improving the quality of human resource training. Experts argue that ethical and integrity issues regarding the use of AI in education and research need to be considered. AI algorithms can sometimes be biased, leading to unfair treatment of certain groups of students. Collecting and analyzing large amounts of learner data raises privacy concerns. It is essential that AI tools be transparent in their operational processes and decision-making.
Mr. Minh affirmed that the use of AI will have potential risks that schools, lecturers, and students need to be aware of. These include the risks to academic integrity posed by integrating AI into education. AI tools could make it easier for students to plagiarize content. AI could generate answers to assignments and tests, undermining the learning process.
Therefore, appropriate policies are needed, such as educational institutions developing clear policies on the acceptable use of AI tools. Students should be educated about the ethical use of AI and the importance of academic integrity.
A student from the first cohort of the Artificial Intelligence program at the School of Technology, National Economics University, shared that during their studies, they and their group of friends used AI extensively. AI served as both a teacher and a friend, especially when professors couldn't closely supervise all 40 students in a class.
The misuse of AI for student tests and discussions is not a new issue. In fact, students with cheating tendencies have existed at all times. Before AI was as developed as it is today, they could copy from other sources, such as books or research papers.
"Therefore, I suggest that instead of restricting students' use of AI, the school should guide us on how to use AI accurately and effectively for learning purposes," this student expressed.
Guide students on proper usage.
Professor Pham Hong Chuong, Director of the National Economics University, emphasized that no matter how much AI develops, ultimately, human interaction and the expression of feelings and emotions remain the highest and most important thing. All technology is developed to serve the real world.
A few years ago, the National Economics University allowed students to use AI and ChatGPT. The important thing is how they will use these tools.

Experts recommend that schools should guide students in mastering AI.  Vietnam encourages US businesses to expand investment in high technology.On the morning of June 26th, at the Government Headquarters, Deputy Prime Minister Ho Quoc Dung received Mr. Jeff Place, Supply Chain Director of Coherent Group (USA). During the meeting, the Deputy Prime Minister affirmed that Vietnam encourages US businesses to expand investment, especially in high-tech, innovation, and semiconductor industries. |
According to Mr. Chuong, the ultimate requirement for students should be the ability to master technology. When they study, tools like ChatGPT can help provide answers, but they need to understand and apply those answers.
"Mastering" here means students must be able to identify the problem and understand the process, while ChatGPT or other tools will assist in finding the solution. Instructors need to provide students with the knowledge and thinking methods so that they can understand and master the technology.
The Director of the National Economics University stated that the university is moving towards implementing the Lecture/Seminar training method. This model is understood as teaching and learning a subject/course by combining Lecture and Seminar classes within a semester. Lecture classes consist of one or more course modules (students registering for the same subject/course) with a maximum of 300 students; Seminar classes are course modules with 20-30 students.
