Nurturing passion for scientific research

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the Fun Learning - Creativity with AI festival, Mr. Nguyen Van Hieu, Director of the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City, highly appreciated the efforts of the Department of Education and Training of Thu Duc City in organizing the festival. Especially when the festival was organized for a large number of students and teachers to participate.

"The festival has created conditions for teachers and students to "immerse" themselves in the atmosphere of scientific research and STEM-oriented learning. The festival is even more meaningful when the Politburo has just issued Resolution 57 on breakthroughs in science, technology development, innovation and national digital transformation.

In addition, in the context that many students tend to choose to study social sciences, promoting STEM activities is very necessary. This is one of the methods to nurture, promote, and create passion for exploration and scientific research for students, helping them choose to study majors in the natural sciences, contributing to the development of the country in the future," said Mr. Hieu.
