UTS welcomes experts from the Ministry of Education, Singapore

With its advanced education system and modern teaching methods, Singapore consistently ranks among the top countries in global education quality. The visit by experts from the Ministry of Education, Singapore, offered UTS a chance to share its training experiences and achievements while gaining insights into modern trends, particularly in the application of technology in teaching and education management (EdTech).

This exchange not only helps UTS enhance the quality of learning but also builds a strong foundation for fostering global citizens who are prepared to adapt and thrive in the digital age.

Sharing on the topic: “EdTech - The modern education trend”

Experts discuss the application of technology in education

The integration of technology into education in Singapore is systematically implemented by the Ministry of Education, widely applied across the teaching system with tools and technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), software assisting teachers in examinations, assessments, and guiding students in their assignments.

Notably, the technologies applied in Singapore’s education system maintain a high level of consistency, ensuring uniformity across the curriculum. This contrasts with the Vietnamese education system, where schools often implement methods independently, leading to discrepancies in training quality.

Although technological applications bring many benefits, modern education also faces challenges. According to experts, in Singapore, over 78% of students fear failure, and 72% are afraid of being judged when they are unsuccessful, highlighting how performance pressure remains a major barrier in their learning journey.

To address this, experts proposed improvements in teaching methods, incorporating technology into lessons, and developing learning projects to promote the goal of creating "joy in learning". This approach helps reduce stress and encourages student creativity..

These investments are not just about enhancing infrastructure but are also part of UTS’s long-term educational strategy. The integration of technology into every lesson helps students visualize abstract concepts, develop logical thinking, and improve self-learning abilities.

Conclusion

By exchanging perspectives and experiences, the academic teams from both countries can refine their teaching and learning strategies for greater effectiveness. With a vision of fostering a modern and globally integrated learning environment, UTS will continue equipping students with the skills and knowledge they need to confidently embrace the future.
