Director of the Department of Quality Management, Ministry of Education and Training, reports on the organization of the national gifted student selection exam over the past 10 years.
The results of the regional and international Olympic competitions of Vietnamese gifted student delegations have always improved in both quantity and quality, with each year being higher than the previous year. Vietnamese student delegations continue to be in the top 10 countries with the highest results, with many students achieving the highest scores. In particular, the results of the national gifted student selection exams and the annual regional and international Olympic competitions have had a strong impact on the emulation movement of good teaching and good learning in high schools.
Some shortcomings have also been recognized. In particular, the organization of experimental and practical exams in physics, chemistry and biology in the national gifted student selection exam is still difficult. The mobilization of experts to participate in the work of creating questions and grading exams is still difficult. There is no mechanism to create a connection between professional responsibilities of scientific experts, lecturers, researchers of academies, research institutes, universities and colleges.
Need to record the later achievements of excellent students
At the conference, Mr. Ho Dac Phuong, lecturer of the Faculty of Information Technology, University of Technology - Vietnam National University , Hanoi (UET), shared statistical results from about 3,000 students of this faculty in 5 years. Accordingly, the group of students from direct admission (national excellent students), direct admission (provincial excellent students) had better academic results than the group of students admitted through other admission methods such as high school graduation exam results, capacity assessment, IELTS/SAT.
From this reality, Mr. Phuong suggested that the Ministry of Education and Training should require universities to have clear statistics on the results and later achievements of students who were once excellent students...
