  At UTS, learning English is not just understanding vocabulary or using the grammar properly. Developing creative thinking for students in language lessons is very essential. According to a paper of Cambridge University, creativity is a skill that we must include in our curriculum because it challenges our students to think on a different level and to use parts of their brains that complement critical thinking. In class 6.1, UTS-ers could develop creative thinking through their English classes. They learnt about “foodscape” – a modern art which creates pictures with foods and vegetables. Then they brainstormed, prepared simple materials such as cookies, bread, etc. and created their own products. The final models are combination of creative thinking and excellent craft skill. This is the first step for UTS-ers to form their various thinking and creativity – necessary qualities in the modern world.

  According to recent reports of Microsoft, about more than 5 of 10 Internet users in Vietnam are related to cyber-bullying. Cyber-bullying left negative consequences for victims and bullies as well. Therefore, educating students carefully and timely about this problem is very essential with rapid growth of social media. With the Life Skills subject of Class 9.1, UTS-ers shared their own thoughts about cyber-bullying in various forms: making short film, designing poster, presenting or making animated cartoon. Each product made by UTS-ers includes a meaningful message to raise awareness about cyber-bullying and limit wrong actions on the Internet. Hope that after this lesson, UTS-ers are equipped with precious soft skills in communicating and behaving with people around them. Let’s build a friendly and lovely UTS community together!  

    M’Drak is the landscape of thick forests and immense prairies of Dak Lak province. The extreme climate, poor soil, and unequally distributed intellectual level made some disadvantaged areas of M’Drak unable to build schools for children. Be able to learn, play and dream – the simple needs of each child – seemed to be “luxuries” for children of this Central Highlands area. With desire to accompany M’Drak district to lighten dreams and hopes of the kids, Van Lang Education Group and US Vietnam Talent International School participated in the kindergarten project for more than 50 kids at hamlet 4, Cu San commune, M’drac district, Dak Lak province. This is an activity in “Schools in Forgotten Lands” project of IEG Foundation with aim to build and repair degraded old school in isolated highlands in Vietnam. The ground-breaking ceremony has been organized on 26th of March, bringing hopes for a decent and safe school to ensure education quality for innocent and lovely students. We do not expect that the small kindergarten at M’Drak will “change” kids’ lives. We just hope it can meet basic needs of kids – the foundation for comprehensive development – then they can contribute and make their hometown better in the future. We consider contribution and society inspiration are missions of each member in UTS community in particular, and Van Lang family in general. Therefore, not only M’Drak kindergarten, there will be more schools in the forgotten lands to be built to lighten the education dreams of children.

  Today, Vietopia vocational city welcomes the “little residents” – UTS Primary students in an exciting filed trip. This is an activity associated with the April theme “Thinking – Creation” of UTS, to inspire and nurture dreams through career experiencing activities. At Vietopia, which has full utilities and functions as a miniature city, UTS-ers tried whatever career they love, such as programmer, firefighter, doctor, nurse, model, chef, etc. They also have learned to be independent and understand more about the value of working, when trying to work and receiving Vido – a special salary of Vietopia. The value of contribution is also enhanced when children know how to coordinate, interact and help each other. A day of experiential learning has passed, but surely UTS-ers will still remember this exciting field trip for a long time. Now, taking a break to recharge, then we will review memorable memories about this field trip in the next school day.

Hope that the talent nurturing and growing journey of both UTS and PVF will achieve wonderful results to contribute more meaningful values to the society.

The richness of the Earth is the primary condition for human beings to build up more meaningful things in the future.

  3R stands for Reduce – Reuse – Recycle. Applying the 3R method in everyday life will help reduce the big amount of waste discharged into the environment, especially persistent waste. It can help to limit pollution as well as reduce overconsumption. The students in grade 5.1 practice the 3R method through the project “Recycling” in English subject. Using used items, UTS-ers took advantage of and created interesting models such as UTS bus, pen box, hat,… They also show their fluent English and presentation skills to introduce the group’s products. Although this activity is not too new, it is extremely necessary for children to early create awareness of environmental protection, saving resources, and contributing good values to society.
