Sensitive essay material
Specifically, according to the content of the 8th grade literature test for the first semester of the Thanh Binh District Department of Education and Training, Dong Thap Province, given to 8th grade students of the district on January 2, in the Reading Comprehension section of the test, there was a text that caused a stir in public opinion, with the title: "Why haven't you invited me to eat yet", excerpted from the book Vietnamese Folk Laughter by Truong Chinh - Phong Chau. Specifically:
A man had a stomachache and could not defecate, so he went to see a medicine man for treatment. He promised the medicine man that when he was cured, he would treat him to a sumptuous meal.
The herbalist believed him and prescribed medicine for him. After a few days of taking the medicine, the man was cured and could defecate normally. However, he was stingy and wanted to go back on his word about the meal, so whenever the herbalist asked, he just said he wasn't cured yet.
The herbalist also guessed that he was lying, so he was very angry and decided to catch him in the act. One time, he saw him going out to the field to defecate, so the herbalist followed him. When he had just finished defecating and was pulling up his pants, the herbalist immediately ran out of the bushes, grabbed his hand with one hand, pointed at the pile of feces with the other hand and shouted: - You are really a greedy and treacherous person. You have already defecated in such a big pile, why haven't you invited me to eat yet?

Content of the 8th grade literature semester 1 test for the 2023-2024 school year of the Department of Education and Training of Thanh Binh District, Dong Thap Province
After seeing the test content, many people posted on social media negative comments about the language used in the test that the Thanh Binh District Department of Education and Training had given students.
According to Thanh Nien reporter's verification, after receiving negative feedback on the above test materials, the leaders of Thanh Binh District People's Committee convened a meeting to deeply review and draw lessons for the 2 individual teachers and the leaders of the test-making council of Thanh Binh District Department of Education and Training.
The teacher who created the test ignored comments and did not report to the test committee.
According to the leader of Thanh Binh District People's Committee, the steps to create the first semester test questions mentioned above were carried out according to the guidance process of the Department of Education and Training of Dong Thap province, however, the test-making council of the district Department of Education and Training made an error.
Specifically, the above test was conducted by Mr. T., a teacher at Binh Tan Secondary School. Due to the nature of secondary school education, there are many sub-subjects, while the test-making council has few leaders, so there is not enough expertise in each sub-subject. During the process of making and reviewing the test, Ms. P., a teacher at Tan Hoa Secondary School, who reviewed the test with Mr. T., commented that using the text "Why haven't you invited me to eat" to create the reading comprehension test was inappropriate, but Mr. T. was subjective and thought that the text was taken from a source of folk stories published by a publisher, not fabricated, so he maintained his opinion. However, both teachers did not report this to the council, leading to the creation of the above test.
The leader of Thanh Binh District People's Committee informed that after discovering negative public opinion about the test questions, the district directed the Department of Education and Training to review the test questions and the department seriously recognized that the use of language materials for the above questions was inappropriate in the educational environment. Mr. T. himself, the teacher who created the questions, seriously admitted his shortcomings.
According to the People's Committee of Thanh Binh District, the organization of the first semester literature test for grade 8 at schools took place normally according to regulations, students took the test seriously and there was no reflection on the "dirty" test questions as commented on social networks. The students' test answers showed serious content, they understood the content and meaning of the story through the art of language and humorous techniques according to the artistic characteristics of Vietnamese folk tales, no student answered expressing the way of thinking that the text was "dirty, unhygienic" as commented on social networks.
The leader of Thanh Binh District People's Committee said that in the coming time, he will direct the district's Department of Education and Training to stabilize the ideological situation of managers and teachers. Draw deep experience from the whole industry in the work of making test questions, thoroughly educate all district teachers on the need to use materials that are highly educational, suitable for the cognitive and psychological abilities of students at each level, use cultural vocabulary, and have a pure and positive meaning. The content of the test questions must meet the requirements of forming qualities and abilities for students according to the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Training for all subjects. Professional training on making test questions must be provided, experts and teachers with experience in the industry must be invited, and especially professional advice from the Department of Education and Training of Dong Thap province on making questions.
