The content of the directive on fundamental and comprehensive innovation of education and training, including the socialization of textbook compilation in Conclusion 91, is very clear.
In the social community, the socialization of textbook compilation has also been discussed enthusiastically, many opinions say that the more textbooks are available, the more choices teachers and students have to teach and learn better.
Minister Nguyen Kim Son said that textbooks are learning materials for organizing teaching and learning, rich and diverse learning materials will support the teaching and learning process well.
Agreeing with Minister Nguyen Kim Son's opinion, because of the immense knowledge, the teaching and learning methods are not just one. Unifying a general education program, but not limiting learning materials, is the right view.
To diversify learning materials, it is necessary to create conditions for many groups of textbook compilation groups to participate, many sets of books appearing on the market will create fair and healthy competition.
Competition will improve quality, compilers must invest to create the best products, meeting the increasing demand for teaching and learning of society.
For teachers, they can study many different sets of books to teach better, providing students with more knowledge.
Students study a set of textbooks, but can access diverse and rich sources of learning materials from many other sets of books to supplement knowledge for their favorite subjects or choose a direction for the future.
