A Shift in Measuring Students' Performance
For many participants, one of the main concerns is how to hone students' ability towards an uncertain future without being over-reliant on scores. To answer this question, Dr. Nguyen Chi Hieu presents a framework to "measure students' readiness for life" that proven effective and based on rigorous academic foundation.
"I believe this framework has showed us a critical view when looking at our schools' performance. We can use it and quantitatively measure students' maturity without using their scores - something that sound conflicting, but it's true. With this new tool, I'm sure that we, as school leaders, can all be clearer when setting milestones, getting to goals - be it operational or academic", Ms. Chu Cam Tho.
Amid the rapid changes of the world, Mark Shayer (BVIS) reminded everyone to lay our focus on the ultimate goal of a school is promoting students' growth.
