Challenges in teaching online in Vietnam

Problems have arisen in mass application of online teaching in Vietnam during the social distancing time. Experts believe that the schools which first applied distance training appeared in 1870s in the US and early 1890s in the UK. In Vietnam, distance training modes were first applied in 1990s and they became more common after 2000s thanks to the internet and education market development. The appearance and popularity of internet, digitized data and software technology recently have given a strong push to the development of distance education. This mode of learning can be applied within schools, but also at other institutions and many different fields, with no limitation in boundaries, space and time. The obvious advantages of distance education and training are flexibility, convenience and economy, which satisfies the learning demand of high numbers of students at the same time. However, a lot of problems arose when Vietnam began organizing online teaching on a large scale during social distancing. The most obvious problem is the lack of facilities for online teaching and learning. Not all students and teachers have laptops or smartphones, and not all families have members with proficiency in technological skills. The problem is more serious in remote and difficult areas. Online teaching requires learners to look intently at a screen. It becomes a boring one-way interaction between teachers and learners. Experts have recently mentioned a problem in Vietnam which has existed for a long time that during lessons: teachers just talk and students just write down. And the problem may become even more serious with online teaching if teachers cannot design their lessons well. Because of age characteristics, primary school children find it difficult to concentrate on lessons and they are easily distracted. The common problems of Vietnamese students, including critical thinking skills, team discussion and opinion presentation have also been exposed …

‘City within a city’ among hottest property market trends: experts

A view of Phú Mỹ Hưng City Centre in HCM City. “City within a city” is a new trend in housing market. — Photo phumyhungcity.com.vn HCM CITY — ‘City within a city’ is likely to become a new trend in the housing market this year, experts predict. Property consultant Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) explained that the concept refers to large-scale integrated developments. It has grown in popularity recently as developers seek to attract buyers with holistic, well-planned communities within a city as people seek to avoid the chaos created by rapid urbanisation and lagging infrastructure in shared facilities. Nowadays developers taking part in city planning have to carefully understand the fundamentals of city planning to create sustainable value for their large-scale projects, according to Trang Bùi, head of markets, JLL Vietnam. According to JLL, the beauty of any large-scale development is the ability to offer a diverse range of housing types to various groups of potential buyers. While each building should be custom designed for a specific group, the overall living environment should still be harmonious, it said. For example, in Phú Mỹ Hưng City Centre in District 7, developers build smaller apartments in the urban heart of the development targeted at single expats and young tenants. Family-oriented buyers who buy larger units tend to prefer the quieter area of the development. ‘City within a city’ is one of five trends JLL predicts the market would see. The Covid-19 pandemic has left hardly any business or industry untouched, according to JLL. But other parts of life and business have continued apace, sustainability initiatives are forging ahead, interest rates are low, and demand for commercial real estate continues to rise. Offices would change, but workers are eager to head back, and as the world looks ahead to 2021, it is worth looking back at a year that changed real estate and, crucially, at trends that have either …
