To prevent innovation from being "magically"

(Baonghean) - Scientific research and summarizing educational experience initiatives (SKKN) are extremely important activities in schools at all levels. In recent years, this activity of the industry has achieved many encouraging results. The quantity and quality of SKKN participating in industry-level rankings are increasing day by day. The number of works winning prizes at the Provincial Science and Technology Innovation Contest accounts for a large proportion compared to the number of works participating in the competition of the whole province. However, besides the achievements, this activity still reveals a number of limitations and shortcomings that need to be adjusted and overcome soon.

Currently, writing SKKN in many schools is being implemented in a large scale. New teachers who have just started working under the form of a first-year contract are also required to summarize SKKN, while for them, the working time and practical contact are too little, so they encounter many difficulties. Therefore, many newly graduated pedagogical students focus on collecting and preparing many completed SKKN topics in their major from many sources to use when necessary.

Unknowingly, right from the beginning of their career, many teachers are in a position where they have to deal with writing SKKN. Because there are no specific regulations on the subjects of writing SKKN, there are cases where female teachers who have been on maternity leave for more than a semester also have to write. Then the SKKN of the Group - Professional Block is also regularly implemented every year. Therefore, in one school year, some teachers have to complete up to two SKKN to meet the requirements, in which one copy is for the individual and one copy is for the group - block according to the rotation assignment. This has led to the situation of copying and coping in writing SKKN that is still happening. Just "transferring" the SKKN from another district or province and editing it to match the information is enough to complete one of the key tasks of the school year.

To somewhat limit this situation, there should be specific and strict regulations for those who are required to write and summarize scientific research projects. This regulation needs to consider and consider the working time and be associated with the year-end competition title of each teacher, professional group and school unit. In addition, it is necessary to require registration of the scientific research topic to be implemented right from the beginning of the school year.

At the same time, the council for acceptance and evaluation of scientific research at the school level is also established from the beginning of the school year to outline a plan for inspection and evaluation of progress through each stage. For the council for acceptance and evaluation of scientific research at the district level at all levels, it is necessary to quickly have a plan to count the scientific research that has reached level 3 and level 4 in previous school years by subject and by author to avoid the situation where some colleagues with many years of experience only need to use the accepted scientific research in rotation. The Department of Education and Training needs to have a document directing schools to seriously review the managers, teachers, and employees whose scientific research is not classified due to duplication or copying on the internet. The lowest form is not to consider the emulation titles of the school year for these subjects.

The reality is that to invest in writing a scientific research project that has practical application value, the writer must devote a lot of effort to research and ponder. Many scientific research projects ranked at level 3 are highly appreciated and there are also scientific research projects ranked at level 4 at the provincial level, but the honoring of authors and especially the dissemination and application work is still very small and limited. It is thought that the Department of Education and Training needs to pay special attention to promoting the dissemination and application of scientific research results that have practical value, suitable for regional characteristics. It could be in the form of organizing seminars and reporting typical scientific research writing in the whole district; compiling and printing a book of proceedings on scientific research projects that have been evaluated at high levels at all levels recently with wide applicability as specialized documents for schools to refer to and study...
