Educational trip to HA Giang: Is the digital transformation on the brink?

Ha Giang, Vietnam - The Ministry of Education of the Vinh Cuu district in the province of Dong Nai has started a remarkable initiative that aims to gain experience in digital transformation in education. A trip to the province of Ha Giang was planned for the period from June 3 to 7, 2025, with a distance of over 1,900 km being covered. Managingers and specialists from the ministry take part in this exchange, as well as directors and deputy directors of presules, kindergartens and middle schools. This measure is part of the efforts to improve digital transformation and MINT formation in the regionreports vietnam.vn.

Controlling over the travel expenses is at the Vinh Cuu district committee, which provides the financial resources. A contract with a travel company ensures the transport and accommodation costs for the participants. While many teachers have already registered for the trip, some concerns are concerned about why the knowledge transfer cannot take place on site in Dong Nai instead of taking a long trip to Ha Giang.

Travel plans and educational goals

The schedule for the trip has already been communicated to the schools. The study group plans to attend two schools in HA Giang and at the same time to visit some tourist destinations such as the Dong Van Steinplateau and the Ban Gioc waterfall. This combination of education and tourism should not only offer the participants new perspectives on digital transformation, but also strengthen their connection to the MINT formation.

The chairman of the Vinh Cuu district committee on the trip to the trip has called for a report to merging self -financing, which led to the immediate stopping of the travel plans. The deputy head of the Ministry of Education and Education criticized the trip as inappropriate and asked the schools and teachers to rethink participation in the trip.

Wider MINT education initiatives

These events also reflect a larger trend in the educational landscape, especially in Germany's MINT education strategy. With the MINT action plan 2.0, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research pursues a holistic approach to promoting MINT measures along the entire education chain. This includes initiatives such as "House of Little Researchers" and national competitions such as "Jugend research"reports education research.digital.

A central part of this strategy is the establishment of the network "Mint networking", which aims to improve MINT training offers through exchange, advice and practical tips.
