Organizing teaching effectively
When students at all levels in the province return to school for face-to-face classes, schools take advantage of this precious time to continue equipping them with knowledge. In North Tan Uyen district, teachers at primary and secondary schools focused on reviewing basic knowledge for students in the first week when reopening, and then students continued studying and completing the first semester exam.
Dr. Nguyen Thi Nhat Hang said that schools have effectively implemented their education plans, ensuring proactive and flexible response to the situations of the Covid-19 pandemic in the locality. They have organized to teach core knowledge contents as a basis for further teaching the remaining contents to complete the school year's tasks. They have organized review of basic knowledge taught in a flexible manner, suitable to the situation of controlling the pandemic.
Also according to leader of provincial DoLISA, schools do not periodically check and evaluate contents that guide students to read, study, and perform by themselves as well as contents requiring students to practice, experiment during the 2021-2022 school year. "In general, after a period of face-to-face teaching, province-based schools have well performed the "dual goals" of organizing effective teaching, ensuring a safe, healthy and friendly educational environment while strictly complying with regulations on Covid-19 prevention and control ", said Dr. Nguyen Thi Nhat Hang.
The province's point of view on organizing face-to-face teaching is to effectively implement the Government’s Resolution No. 128/NQ-CP dated October 11, 2021 promulgating the Interim Regulation on “safe and flexible adaptation and effective control over the Covid-19 pandemic”. The principle of organizing face-to-face teaching is that educational facilities and schools with face-to-face teaching must be evaluated for ensuring the adequate and correct implementation of safe regulations on Covid-19 prevention and control and be regularly checked during the face-to-face teaching process.
