APPLYING PRESIDENT HO CHI MINH’S VIEWS ON EDUCATION TO IMPROVE THE PRACTICALITY OF TEACHING POLITICAL THEORY SUBJECTS IN THE CURRENT VIETNAMESE HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM AND COLLEGES

Humanities and Social Sciences

In Ho Chi Minh’s ideological heritage, promoting the role of education in the development of human resources has an important position, showing his special interest in people and “the cause of human cultivation”. This is considered as a guideline and one of the scientific bases for Vietnam to plan an education strategy to innovate and comprehensively improve education and training in the current period. “Learning with practice”, “linking theory with practice” is some of the basic principles to improve the quality and effectiveness of specific functions and educational processes. However, at present, the teaching of political theory subjects in the Vietnamese higher education system and colleges is still considered to be “tầm chương trích cú” (memorize and quote from scriptures) and not close to reality creates the necessary attraction for learners. Therefore, applying President Ho Chi Minh’s point of view on education to improve the practicality in teaching political theory subjects has practical significance in the current Vietnamese education context.
