Date Completed : April, 2014. Adviser : PROF. Dr. WALBERTO A. MACARAAN ABSTRACT The main purpose of this was the evaluation of faculty teaching activities to improve the quality training of art school in Vietnam with a view to the development of quality training schools of art in Vietnam in the period 2013 – 2020. The dissertation assessed the teaching activities of teachers in art schools from the point of views of managers and teachers in terms of teaching plan and preparation, management of the program and teaching time management based on standards: talent development, assessment tools, action programs, learning objectives, learning outcomes, reasonable allocation, competences and skills of teachers, and the overarching monitoring classes, ... according to the 11 evaluation criteria of the Ministry of Education and Training in order to enhance teachers’ teaching competencies in art schools. This study used the descriptive correlation design in analyzing the investigated variables. The dissertation evaluated the teaching activities of teachers in art schools from the point of views of students in terms of professional competencies, methods and teaching skills, peers and student relations through activities: providing necessary documents to prepare for the course, lesson presentation; combination of teaching methods, developing talent and artistic potential. The questionnaire was used as major data-gathering instrument and unstructured interview was done to cross check the responses of the respondents. There were 325 teachers, administrator and students used as respondents in this study. Weighted mean and chi-square regressions were used in the study to analyze the data. The respondents ranked the instructional variables that influence the performance of selected sectarian schools as follows: There is no significant difference between administrators and faculty about teaching plan, management of the program and teaching time management. But there is significant difference in the lesson presentation of the teachers, the use of textbooks and reference materials, contents of the course, lesson objectives, lesson sequences in accordance with the knowledge and skills of students. Inasmuch as the Educational managers can also use methodology, instrument and questionnaire of the research to evaluate building program, management of the program and teaching time management according to specific rules of teachers teaching art. From the results of research, educational managers plan to evaluate teachers scientifically and accurately in the art schools in the whole country. 12 Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION In the globalization and economic integration in Vietnam, the use of human resources becomes a challenge for the mankind. The quality is always the first concern of the society because it is the human’s motivation to continually rise and develop. Stepping into the 21st century the Vietnamese education has undergone 15 years of renovation and has achieved important results such as increased enrollment, diversification of delivery modes and improved school infrastructure. The level of mass education has been increased. The quality of education began changing positively. In the trends in integration, development and competitiveness, ensuring and improving the quality of education is the task of schools. Therefore, schools are interested in investing for management of the quality of the school. Competency-based assessment is the current quality-driven approach to trainings and development of human resources. Faculties and teaching staff have special role in the education, are determinant factor for the quality and efficiency of education. Teaching process has been seen as the mean for learning quality management. Conducting all steps in teaching process means lecturers of school have participated in managing teaching quality for them and for the institutions. There would be no good education without good faculty quality, teaching effectiveness is the core mission of schools. Students are the subjects of teaching activities, but the key factor of teaching effects is faculty because education quality is influenced by teaching effect. Evaluation of faculty’ teaching activity is the key to probe into faculty quality to help faculty ascertain their shortcomings so that they can not only improve themselves but also increase their teaching effectiveness. 13 Effective teaching is activity which promotes the intellectual vitality of the university and the wider community. The primary focus of this activity is transmission of knowledge and the development of new skills, insights, and sensitivities within the classroom; teaching is not limited to that setting. It also includes the advising, supervising and mentoring of students, the sharing of personal and professional growth with others, and the presentation of intellectual and moral concerns within the university community. Resolution No.14/2005/NQ-CP dated November 2, 2005 by Government of Vietnam on Substantial and comprehensive renewal of Vietnam's tertiary education in the 2006-2020 period affirmed: ―To build up a sufficient contingent of tertiary education lectures and administrators, who have ethical quality and professional conscience, high professional qualifications and an advanced teaching and management style‖. Student evaluation of teaching has been a compulsory practice of institutional quality evaluation since the academic year 2009-2010. Because there are aspects of teaching performance that cannot be evaluated only by students most schools regard student evaluations of teaching as one source of information for improving effectiveness of teaching. Faculty assessment has been tested in a number of training institutions in the form of tested; the assessment results are used to improve the teaching quality of faculty. Many Vietnamese scientists have studied this issue, such as the research: Master Pham XuanThanh, Quality of Postgraduate Training in Vietnam: Definition, Criteria and Mesurement scales; Nguyen Phuong Nga (2007): "Student faculty evaluations - testing and modeling tools" National University Publishing House Hanoi; In 2000, the Ministry of Education and Training Vietnam funded a project to develop a common set of questionnaires to evaluate the quality of teaching and the scientific research ability. This set includes: (1) Course Evaluation Form (for students); 14 (2) Evaluation of Teaching and Research Activities (for individual faculty) or Self- Assessment; (3) Evaluation of Teaching and Research Activities (for collegiate assessment) or Peer- Assessment; and (4) Class Observation. Major parts in the evaluation are ten items which ask the students to evaluate a particular teaching behavior. In general, these studies are macro without deep research on evaluation of faculty teaching activities, especially in art schools in Vietnam. Therefore, improving the quality of teaching is background to improve the quality training in art schools is necessary now; this study makes this research even more imperative in Vietnam now. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Faculty assessment activities have a long time, a number of progress education were interested in evaluating faculty. Middle Ages of Europe, faculty assessment activities developed, the United States has many popular activities on faculty evaluations at multiple institutions. Sources of faculty evaluations include: colleagues, Observation, Client feedback, students, managers, employers, classroom visits, teaching dossier and self-evaluation of each faculty. Evaluation of other sources including student test results, daily diaries, tapes, tape record the work of faculty or teaching dossier, to the assessment of faculty effectiveness, need to from many different sources. The evidence provided by different evaluation resources to help improve the accuracy of evaluation. Power supply has its own characteristics, but will not be suitable if used for different purposes. Although, self-evaluations is subjective but self-evaluation is very important in the evaluation of faculty and it's necessary to do. The evaluation of the quality of teaching can 15 be done with different tools. It is possible that the survey questionnaire, interview questions, observation sheets... Traditional arts are part of the cultural heritage of a group of people whose members share a common ethnic heritage, language, religion, occupation, or geographic region. These artistic traditions are passed down through generations and reflect the values of their shared culture. Skills are typically learned directly through observation and imitation from someone steeped in the tradition, rather than through classes, books, or other means of institutional instruction. Art faculty are qualified educators and, in some instances, artists that instruct students in theoretical and practical knowledge in art theory, art history, aesthetics, visual art, ceramics, design and other art-related subjects. Evaluation of teaching in art schools there are some differences: the teaching and learning environment characteristics, the level of awareness, gender, ethnicity, ... therefore evaluate teaching in art schools have constraints but the evaluation of teaching is an inevitable trend, which is a mandatory, teaching art schools need comprehensive preparation of theory and practice to ensure improved training. In order to effectively improve teaching quality, art schools has put a lot of continuous effort into studies related to facultys’ teaching effectiveness. However, there is no complete system in Vietnam which can be used as a tool to evaluate faculty’ teaching to improve the quality training of art school. Based on this background, the researcher intends to find other processed to evaluation of faculty teaching activities to improve the quality training of art school in Vietnam. 16 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY The main purpose of this was the evaluation of faculty teaching activities to improve the quality training of art school in Vietnam with a view to the development of quality training schools of art in Vietnam in the period 2013 – 2020.

Students: To enhance perception, appreciation of the arts, and abilities to express themselves creatively; Engaging and supporting all students in learning. Future Researchers: Developing as a professtional educator. Planning instruction and designing learning experiences for all students of art schools. SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY The primary intent of this study was the evaluation of faculty teaching activities to improve the quality training as a whole of art school in Vietnam alongside with five art schools from the years 2008 – 2009 to 2012 – 2013. There were 325 of students, teachers, and administrators used as respondents in this study. Four major sources of information are used to determine the effectiveness of an individual faculty: students, faculty (self-evaluation), colleagues and managers and administrators. This evaluation must be consistent with assignments and the goals and objectives for art school development. The time frame of this study covered the period from November 2012 to July 2013. DEFINITION OF TERMS For better understanding the planning terms in this study were defined conceptually and operationally: Assess has the general meaning of determining the importance or value of something. Assess to determine the value, significance, or extent of; appraise. 19 Evaluation: is the systematic collection and analysis of data needed to make decisions, a process in which most well-run programs engage from the outset. This indicator reflects the activity of the teacher in relation to the evaluation tasks or actions realized. Faculty in higher education establishments is clearly personal; quality, good ethics; occupational health as required; reach the level of expertise and professional regulations Teaching: a primary activity in the university is understood to mean the act of facilitating the acquisition of knowledge and skills with confidence and direction, geared towards the development of the analytical and creative faculties of students. Furthermore, the function of teaching includes specific tasks, such as student consultation, academic advising, and all other initiatives that facilitate the process of learning. Teaching is the process of carrying out those activities that experience has shown to be effective in getting students to learn. Activitiesis a conceptual framework based on the idea that activity is primary, that doing precedes thinking, that goals, images, cognitive models, intentions, and abstract notions like ―definition‖ and ―determinant‖ grow out of people doing things‖. Activity stems from its fundamental view of purposeful activity in a cultural historical context as the fundamental unit for the study of human behavior. Activity Theory is an approach which underpins the complex and dynamic human problems of research and practice. Hence, Activity is geared towards a practice which embodies a qualitative approach that offers a different lens for analysing processes and the outcomes. Teaching activities are ...s to construct their own knowledge, to understand, analyse a phenomenon and change the way they perceive the world (Trigwell et al., 1994). Teachers are seen to be effective if their students demonstrate the ability to be critical and innovative in the way they think, to arrive at their own conclusions and to develop a personal and ethical position on key issues (Martin et al., 2000). Students, by and large, are not seen as passive recipients of knowledge, rather they are active participants of the creation of knowledge. Learning-focused evaluation of teaching, while acknowledge the importance of measuring content knowledge of the teachers and the teaching techniques they employ in the classroom, place more emphasis on measuring student’s expectations, their involvement and perceptions of the learning environment; the appropriateness of learning activities; indications of approaches to learning; distribution of work over the duration of the course; and time on task (Edstrom, 2008; Pratt, 1997). 37 RESEARCH PARADIGM Figure 1.

Teaching activities - The ability and responsibility to impart knowledge including implementation of adequate volume and content knowledge of the subject charge of teaching, lectures, scientific content, suitable objective of the training program,Updated information and knowledge relevant modern methods of learning test results. - Skills taught include communication skills, communication, and organization of teaching; improve teaching methods to meet the requirements of high quality training. - Class management skills, to attract the attention of students. - Advice guide students. - Compiled teaching materials, lectures, references. Standard 2. Development of professional competencies - Join the professional activities of the school. - Self fostering knowledge and language skills, information and expertise. - Update to development in their own areas of expertise. - Fostering or fostering skills teaching methods and class management institutions. In the accreditation standards of universities by the Ministry of Education and Training of Vietnam issued in 2007, who taught factor to be considered in criteria 4.3: Innovative methods of teaching and learning towards develop the capacity of self-learning, self-study and the 39 collective work of the school and standards 5: management staff, faculty and staff with seven criteria: Criterion 5.2: Management staff, faculty is guaranteed democratic rights in the university; Criterion 5.3: The school has a policy and measures to facilitate management staff and faculty participate in professional activities, domestic and foreign operations; Criterion 5.5: There are sufficient faculty organic (or converted to the number of faculty working full-time) to implement training programs and scientific research; faculty structure reasonable; Criterion 5.6: faculty team with professional qualifications, foreign language and computer skills to meet the requirements, training tasks and scientific research; academic autonomy; Criterion 5.7: faculty team with professional work experience and rejuvenation; Criterion 5.8: The school has a plan and reasonable methods to evaluate teaching activities, methods of assessing learning outcomes of students. In a number of studies on the quality of Education University (Bourke, 1986; Rowly, 1996; John, 1998; Ayer, 1999; DETYA, 2000) the authors have made a number of criteria for evaluating the quality of training that could be implementation, application at the University of Education facilities in Vietnam as follows: - Training objectives clear; - Admissions input to ensure reliability; 40 - Good program structure, training programs are organized into systems, are closely related to each other; The program content and training objectives consistent with each other; - Students have positive attitudes toward learning; - Faculty expertise and enthusiasm; - Vehicles and learning materials to ensure good; - Have the management unit responsible for teaching activities; - Make sure the number of facultys in accordance with the size of the training school; - Percentage of faculty and students reasonable; - The number of subjects enough to make students a flexible option. According Braskamp and Ory (2000) when evaluating faculty should be evaluated on 04 areas: Teaching; scientific research and creative activities; services and expertise; citizen responsibility. For the field of teaching, the authors came up with four criteria and indicators to assess the following: CRITERIA INDICATORS 1 Imparting knowledge - During the course, the televised sessions, workshops/ conferences - Organization of a course (which holds information about students, learning experiences and planning) 2 Advice and guidance for - Supervise students in the lab, outdoor classes - Advice for Students (career, academics, private 41 students consultants) - Monitoring support teaching - Monitoring Born vientrong experience practice (medicine) - Supervision of students in research/ thesis/ dissertation. 3 Conduct learning activities - Review and redesign of courses - Approval of the curriculum - Follow the materials/ textbooks, computer software - Guide and distance learning programs 4 Facultys need - Evaluation of teaching colleagues - Guiding the study of teaching - The professional development activities Some scientists believe that the criteria necessary to evaluate teaching activities include: - The transmission of knowledge; - Teaching and class management skills; - The advice and guidance to students/ student/ graduate student; - Editor lectures, teaching materials; - Qualification development activities, academic. 42 These studies show that the criteria and indicators for assessing the quality of teaching are quite different. The evaluation of the quality of teaching a course requires accuracy and should cover all aspects including many belonging to the following criteria: - Objectives and content of the training program; - Curriculum structure; - Equipment teaching and teaching activities; - Rating the whole course. According to research, evaluate sources now includes faculty colleagues, head of department or dean of students, staff and management companies and self-evaluation of each faculty. Assessment of other sources including student test results, daily diaries, tapes, tape record the work of faculty or teaching dossier. For the assessment of faculty effectiveness, the researchers make recommendations to combine information from different sources. Please go through a number of sources and assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the source of this assessment. The problem is that we have to develop criteria for evaluating faculty teaching activities, including issues: Evaluating faculty to do? Assess what faculty? Those who participate in faculty evaluation? Evaluation forms are the most reliable? And what is the purpose of the evaluation? The average review emulation and commendation work hours and held student assessment activities had certain positive effects to improve themselves faculty in teaching activities, scientific researchand fostering expertise. But in fact the way of assessing the faculty as above also has some disadvantages: 43 1.For working at emulation, although the evaluation criteria, but also the influence of subjective factors; publicity review staff at the group level, department / faculty sometimes quite frankly should not results of considering not reflect the true quality of the work of the faculty. In addition, the classification criterion how much staff is recognized as Emulation Fighter or Labor excellent ... many faculties even achieves the criteria but has not achieved the title. This limits the efforts of the faculty as they are not timely. 2. Dean/ Faculty evaluation is done for a long time to make decisions about the quality of faculty teaching. But the weakness of this method is not reliable because there may be a personal bias or prejudice before; personal opinion on different values; bent on teaching methods teaching (PPGD) different (Centra, 1993). Colleagues and managers can visit the class, but usually only one or two times during the school year and can not accurately assess the operation of the classroom faculty. To get the accurate assessment, there should be a combination between the parties as self-evaluation of faculty, assessment of students to get an overview, evaluation of results, honest. 3. Assessment of student strengths is to provide reliable and valid information about faculty' classroom teaching for activities to improve the quality of teaching and increase the bonus and salary. The weakness of this work is that sometimes students do not have enough ability to assess aspects such as scientific research activities of the faculty, the suitability of the materials for the course (Edith J. Cisneros-Cohernour, 2001)... 4. No consensus on standards, assessment tools, a comprehensive faculty throughout the University. The majority of the student evaluation questionnaire lecturer / course has not been tested for reliability, value, units use the questionnaire included too few questions - do not fully assess the activities of the faculty, the unit also uses the questionnaire is too long, can not get the answer straight from the students. 44 5. In addition, there is no evaluation of the scientific research and development professional capacity of faculty - this is a very important part in the process of evaluating faculty. 6. Assessment activities trainer missing a key component that is itself evaluated. Individual faculty should have a voice in the evaluation process to be able to set the strengths, weaknesses and comment on themselves endeavors throughout his training. These results are compared with the results of the evaluation of the stakeholders will provide a summative assessment more objective and scientific. 7. Each unit member uses a different questionnaire, so there are no general guidelines for evaluating process-oriented faculty and improves the quality of faculty for the quality assurance system of the schools. Thus, the need to develop a set of assessment tools that facultys in a comprehensive, shared in the school of art to which the standard assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the faculty, create a data source worth confidence to improve the quality of teaching of the faculty. 45 Chapter III. METHODOLOGY This chapter deals with the locale of the study, research design, population and sampling, data gathering procedures, and statistical treatment used in the study. LOCALE OF THE STUDY This study was conducted in five university and colleges of art and culture school of north in Vietnam.

The researcher sought the assistance of five (5) experts to validate the content of the questionnaire in terms of correctness of language, appropriateness of the statements and relevance of the items to the problem using the codes: 3 for ―acceptable‖, 2 for ―needs revisions‖, and 1 for ―not acceptable.‖ After which, it was tried out in school not included in the population to determine the suitability of the language and to determine the length of time of each administration before it was submitted to the researcher’s adviser for final approval. DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE This study used questionnaire as medium of obtains the needed data. The questionnaire was designed to cover two sections namely, teachers and administrators (Section A) and students (Section B) evaluation of faculty teaching activities to improve the quality training of art school in VietNam. A four point scale, ranging from 1 ―strongly disagree‖ to 4 ―strongly agree‖ was used for this study and all questions were phrased positively. All survey was assured as to the confidentiality of responses, and there was no need for the person under survey to include a name on the survey. The actual data gathering procedures was done through several processes. After the finalization of the instrument, the researcher asked the permission of the respective school heads and principals to administer the questionnaire. Then she contacted them through the telephone to schedule the former’s visit to the schools thus distribution of questionnaires started. Those visits were done during the month of June. Finally the questionnaires were retrieved in early August 2013 thus tallying, tabulating and analyzing the data followed. 55 STATISTICAL TREATMENT To answer the problems posed in this study, the following statistical tools were applied on the data collected. Analysis Statistical Tool Assess the teaching activities of teachers from the point of views of respondents in terms of: - Teaching Plan and Preparation - Management of the Program - Teaching time management Weighted mean Assess the teaching activities of the teachers from the point of views of student respondents in terms of: - Professional Competencies on the Program - Methods and Teaching Skills of Teachers - Peers and Student Relations - Learning outcome assessment test Weighted mean Ascertain if there is significant difference among the two group of respondents Chi square test Ascertain if there is significant difference among the students perception of the 5 respondent schools Chi square test Find out the problems encountered in the Frequency percentage 56 management of teaching activities among 5.1.

As the table revealed that there was Disagreement of the respondents with AWM of 2.38 for item 4, that there exists a notion of competence and skills of the teacher with the lesson. The same perceptions wherein the teaching plan of activities is enough to cover the topic for the period with an AWM of 2.46. However, there was an agreement of 3.14 in Vietnam University. On the other hand, topics in the teaching plan provide students for easy access of materials and references with an AWM of 3.36 as strongly agree. The same holds true that sequences of the lecture for the course are appreciate and logical. Of all the items except from what were analysis, all respondent’s schools obtained an average weighted mean falling under the Agree category. From the above table presented, it can be deduced that teacher’s competencies and skills should be given emphasis to the extent that teaching strategies and approaches should be strengthened and a need to identify different skills that are appropriate to each of the lessons. The same with topic and the number of hours for each of the lessons wherein proper distribution of the time seems to be neglected and taken for granted. 62 The information on table 1 would also mean of the indicative qualifications, skills and competencies vary with their talents wherein one teacher may not have it all when teaching in an Art School.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY In recent years , university education in our country is in the process of self-renewal. Although there have been many changes to try and not less but still inadequate. Quality training is not commensurate with the requirements of economic development and social in the current period. The constantly improving the quality of higher education is the issue everyone is concerned and urgent requirements. This solution is also crucial to Vietnam's tertiary education to fulfill its historic mission: training people to develop comprehensive Vietnam , morality, and knowledge , health , aesthetic and professional professional, loyal to the ideals of national independence and socialism, form and nurture the personality, qualities and abilities of citizens to meet the requirements of the construction industry and national defense. At the same time, manpower supply high quality of industrialization, modernization and nation-building increasingly prosperous , social justice , democratic and minh.Va to improve the quality, need more concerned with the teaching staff with the important role of the teacher , by having good teacher can have good games . One of the criteria contributing to the good moral teacher , great expertise , teaching ability is attractive... Use of assessments of student teachers (widely used in countries with advanced education in the world, but rather new in Vietnam) scientific and effective. Modern society is constantly evolving, requiring Vietnam's education must have a new look, a new way of thinking and their teachers must have the knowledge and new skills to meet the requirements of society. In particular, instructors teach students capable of independent thinking, methods and systems thinking perspective whole; has creative energy and innovative 6 spirit, has the ability to adapt to change frequently, diverse, complex, turbulent and unexpected uncertainty; capacity to act effectively and in a spirit of cooperation, multicultural environment of a globalized world. CONCLUSIONS Evaluate teachers ensure objective and effective for the management of schools, assessment methods need to evaluate science. Accurate assessment standards will help to evaluate objectively and scientifically accurate. The thesis analyzed the data from the evaluation of the teacher's art school in Vietnam. The authors analyzed data: criteria, assessment, standards ... to clarify practical grounds. So, want to get an advanced education, we should boldly look to the methods frank assessment of faculty teaching. However, the current way of evaluating the quality of student trainers Vietnam also differ with countries with advanced education in the world . In our country mainly focuses on the final assessment.So, sometimes teachers do not know how to improve aspects of the teaching process. Therefore we should promote active student evaluation of faculty teaching through classroom of students. Just as important as the provision of consulting services taught, ready to provide support services will not be encouraged to seek faculty or convince them of the importance of it, the only effort concern of some managers to enhance faculty evaluation system and make the operation of this system is effective and has the ability to attract new faculty influence. Of course, the easiest step and the most visible is stated to be promotion or salary increase that teachers have evidence to prove they can teach effectively . 7 RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Need to raise awareness about faculty evaluation activities for the leaders and cadres in the entire unit. People need to understand the purpose and effectiveness of faculty evaluation activities and the benefits these activities bring in the process of improving the quality of training. 2. Develop policies for faculty evaluation activities: how to use assessment results for promotions, salary increases, bonuses, penalties or training activities, professional development courses, as well as professional considerations personnel decisions. In addition, it should provide a certain budget reserved for faculty evaluation activities in order to maintain operations and to constantly improve the quality of teaching and scientific research in the field. 3. The student assessment and course instructor is a relatively new, not a habit, sticky background of students, so take the time to propagate, raise student awareness of the importance and the significance of this work, and there are specific instructions for students on how to assess. In the rules for this student should specify both an obligation they have done, they had a right to use. To clarify that the right to give them the benefit - the issue involved how feedback on assessment results and using assessment results . 4. Keep this assessment form as indicative of the type of slogan, because if you do not quality, then students will not want to do more... and so will a waste of time, effort, inefficient. 5. It is necessary to ensure student opinions are respected and comments, suggestions and recommendations of their reasonably be made, leading to innovation, real improvements. These recommendations are not reasonable or they must be answered feedback. In this way students see clearly the significance and importance of the evaluation of faculty to accomplish really seriously, think carefully . 8 6. Trainers should talk to students about how to use student assessment results to adjust the time before the course, which students learned the previous reviews and was interested to read how. Thus students feel that the assessment of previous students have been reading very carefully and the problem is solved if possible. It encourages students to actively participate, volunteer more in the process. 7. Use assessment results to impact, forcing the poor to improve faculty, repair, encouraging them to develop and improve their professional qualifications. Lecturer poor need support, training, training to improve quality. It is important to exchange them identify ways to promote strengths, overcome, fix blemishes, creating avoided counterproductive, especially if the assessment results are used only to criticize, criticize. 9 BIBLIOGRAPHY BraskampvàOry (1994) Assessing faculty work: Enhancing individual and institutional performance.
