A look at the History and Application of Critical Theory

Abstract: Researchers who supported the idea of critical theory based their argument on the assumption that there is always a need for criticism in order to promote changes in society. The ultimate goal of critical theory, rather than predicting, explaining, or understanding social phenomenon, is to point out problems and pushing the decision of transformation. Critical theory assumed that the phenomenon is already existed and the inequality can only be addressed by reorganizing the society. This theory is inherently influenced by Marxism and the analytical ideas of Karl Marx. Although the researching process still involves the action of observing, analyzing, but the core idea of critical theory, as its name suggested, is to pursue changes through criticizing. There are six key concepts of this theory: text, meaning, culture, polysemy, hegemony, and ideology. It is because of its diversity that critical theory has very high applicability in the field of social studies and communication. This article aims to present an overview of the development history of critical theory and one of its outstanding applications – reader response theory.

Abstract: (LLCT&TT) Credit-based training is a method of organizing training for each module, allowing students to accumulate credits of each module and implement a training program according to their individual studying plan in accordance with the plan of the training institution. For Vietnam, this is a new training method, replacing the previous year-based one. The Ministry of Education and Training officially required universities and colleges to switch to credit-based training from the 2009-2010 school year. After more than 10 years of implementation, the method has proved its superiority, efficiency and modernity compared to the year-based training method. However, the newness brings with it difficulties, challenges and limitations that need to be overcome. The article contributes to giving a more comprehensive view theoretically and practically in order to further improve the quality and effectiveness of credit-based training methods in higher education institutions in our country today.

Abstract: Vietnam's higher education has been deeply integrating to better adapt to the rapid changes of the times. In that context, the policy of university autonomy issued by the Party and State is considered a top priority, in line with the development of the global education system. However, while the University Council is very popular in Western countries, the application of this model in Vietnam still faces many difficulties despite having specific regulations in the law. This article is aimed at identifying models of University Councils in some countries and pointing out the difficulties for universities in Vietnam when implementing this new governance model.
