Theme: Competency-based Learning and Teacher Education

Hanoi, 14th – 15th December 2019

Background

Globalization and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) have highlighted the need for greater consideration of issues of competency-based learning  and raised demands for high quality teaching and learning in institutes of pedagogical higher education. The development and advancement of information and communication technology, together with digital technology, have called for improvements and adjustments in the educational world. As a result, teacher education and training have undergone significant changes with the focus on practice-based education, teachers’ and teacher educators’ professional knowledge, and ICT integration. These recent developments require new and innovative perspectives on teacher education and training, including research, theory and practice. Educators need to contribute positively to human resource development to keep pace with the constant changing aspects of life and in so doing meet the needs of the community.
