THE CONVERGENCE BETWEEN HO CHI MINH’S EDUCATIONAL THOUGHT AND 21ST-CENTURY EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY: CONTENT AND IMPLICATIONS
Resumen
In the context of globalization and the profound transformations taking place in global education in the 21st century, establishing a humanistic, liberal, creative, and sustainable educational philosophy has become an urgent imperative. Modern educational philosophy not only reaffirms the central role of the learner but also emphasizes the development of adaptability, critical thinking, and social responsibility in each individual in an ever-changing world. Within this intellectual current, Ho Chi Minh’s educational thought with its profound views on the role of education, the goal of training well-rounded individuals, the close linkage between education and practical life, and the ideal of human liberation continues to demonstrate enduring relevance and vitality. This paper focuses on analyzing the convergence between Ho Chi Minh’s educational thought and 21st-century educational philosophy, clarifying their similarities in essence, goals, and educational methods, while also assessing the significance of this convergence for the fundamental and comprehensive renewal of Vietnam’s current education system.
