Mindset Education 4.0 and Ingraining new learning ecosystem for education 4.0 at LHU from EMVITET project (Part 1)

 

With the goal of Transformation Towards Education 4.0 in Vietnam, adapt to the needs of the world's 4.0 industry. The EMVITET project has trained and supported teachers in identifying, understanding definitions, orientations, and implementation methods to promote education in the right direction of education 4.0. The foundation for sustainable transformation and development are teachers and managers in the institutions.



EMVITET project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, implemented by 03 European universities including HAMK (Finland), Dublin City (Ireland), KU Leuven (Belgium) implementing the guidelines for lecturers of 6 universities and colleges in Vietnam (Lac Hong University, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Education, University of Technology and Education – University of Danang, Hue Industrial College, College of Technology II, Ho Chi Minh City Industry and Trade College.

The project focuses on developing teacher competencies in the following areas: pedagogy, technology to improve digital pedagogy, and the final goal, build the ecosystem for education 4.0 at each institution, first step to ingraining learning ecosystem for education 4.0 in Vietnam.

Phase 1 - Pedagogy, in my opinion, Pedagogy is the most important phase, because it helps us understand more properly the concepts, methods then we form the mindset and implementation solutions to achieve Education 4.0. We only do the right thing when we understand the right problem and combine it in the right way to meet the right needs (requirements in industry 4.0). It is necessary to change the mindset from the teachers being the center in traditional education to student-centered learning. People are diverse in their ways of learning and actions, so it is necessary to have appropriate communication and assessment according to the learner's ability and capacity



Phase 2 - Technology. In this phase, teachers identify and use digital technologies effectively in organizing classrooms that inspire learning (flipped classroom, project-based learning, etc). Use digital tools to have a variety of assessment practices related to Industry 4.0 competencies needed and to support learners’ self-regulated learning and peer learning.



Phase 3 – Learning ecosystem. It is the phase to combine application and implementation from individuals together, forming an ecosystem for Education 4.0. In order to be able to build and develop sustainably Education 4.0 in the institution, the managers and teachers must have the same mindset and development targets of education 4.0. In addition to the supporting system and infrastructure at the institution, it is necessary to have guidelines and appropriate policies/ activities to demonstrate and support implement Education 4.0 to all members at the institution then maintain the principles of Education 4.0
