INTRODUCTION
1. Rationale for the study
Lecturers are one of the factors determining the training quality of vocational
colleges as lecturers are the ones who directly impart the knowledge to the students, and
form the necessary professional skills for the students’ future career. Lecturers are also
an important contributor to forming in students the attitude to study in the school, as
well as the attitude to work later. In order for lecturers to fulfill these educational goals,
they need to have the necessary competence and moral qualities, first of which is the
teaching capacity. When lecturers have good teaching capacity, they will have the
ability to design lessons, to conduct teaching activities, to evaluate teaching activities
and to manage teaching activities.
In order for the teaching staff of electrical departments at vocational colleges to
have the teaching capacity to meet the training requirements of the school, the
vocational colleges need to conduct activities to foster the teaching capacity of the
lecturers.
In order for the training of teaching capacity for lecturers of electrical departments
at vocational colleges to be effective, it is pivotal to manage and cultivate teaching
capacity for lecturers of electrical faculty at vocational colleges. The management of
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers will ensure that this activity is carried out in
accordance with the set objectives, content, methods and forms of the training.
Stemming from the above reasons, we choose the issue: "The management of
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of electrical departments at vocational
colleges" as the topic of this doctoral thesis in Educational Management.

OVERVIEW OF RESEARCH WORKS ON THE MANAGEMENT OF
CULTIVATING TEACHING CAPACITY FOR LECTURERS AT
VOCATIONAL COLLEGES
The thesis has performed research on the works of domestic and international authors in
the following aspects:
- Studies on cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of vocational colleges: Studies
on teacher training activities (Hannele Niemi and Ritva Jakku- Sihvonem; A.Carin,
Craig A.Mertler, Marzano (2000) ); Judy Murray (2006)…) ; Lai Duc Vuong (2009),
Do Quang Trung (2009), Tran Minh Luc (2000), Nong Thi Cu (2013)…
- Studies on the management of cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers at vocational
colleges: Patrice Pelpel; Marguerite Altet; James H.Mc Millan; Thomas Olsson, Katarina
Martensson, Torgny Roxa; Fred C. Lunenburg, Allan C. Orstein; Robert Katz;
M.M.Rubinstein, P.M. Phoribic, N.V. Cudomia, Ph.M. Golobolin; Do Thi Ngoc Oanh (2012);
Dang Thi Bich Lien (2009); Nguyen Tien Dao (2016); Nguyen Kieu Oanh (2013); Nguyen
Thanh Hung (2017) ; Nguyen Duy Hung (2014), Pham Nguyen Nhung (2020) ….
Analyzing domestic and international research shows that: Regarding cultivating
teaching capacity activities, foreign research works focus on learning about teacher's
capacity; fostering teaching capacity for teachers; fostering professional capacity
building for teachers; forms of capacity building for teachers, training programs for
teachers; and training model for teachers. Domestic research projects focus on the

3


training and managing the training for civil servants at state management agencies in

order to improve the capacity of this work force to perform official duties.
Regarding the management of cultivating teaching capacity, the works focus on the
following issues: Overseas research works focus on teaching capacity of teachers
(teacher’s assessment capacity, professional capacity, teaching capacity). Some other
research focus on improving the quality of teaching staff, especially improving teachers’
knowledge, teaching skills and attitudes; analyzing the competencies of the managers of
the training institutions. Studies in Vietnam focus on the management of training
activities, including fostering political theory of cadres and civil servants in the state
management system.
From the analysis of the above studies, it is shown that there are very few in-depth
and systematic studies on training activities and the management of cultivating teaching
capacity for lecturers of vocational colleges. In particular, there are very few studies on
fostering teaching capacity for lecturers at vocational colleges.

integration, this training activity is still limited. Some of the limited management
contents are:
The assessment and identification of the need for fostering teaching capacity for
lecturers in electrical departments at vocational colleges is still limited. Some
departmental managers are not fully aware of the importance of the need to foster the
teaching capacity for lecturers. Therefore, sometimes it is not possible to create
favorable conditions for teachers to go to training.
The development of training objectives, principles and methods in the direction of
improving teaching capacity for electrical faculty at vocational colleges is still limited.

The management and implementation of training objectives, principles and methods in
the direction of improving the teaching capacity for lecturers in electrical departments
are sometimes not done properly.

14


The development of content to foster teaching capacity for lecturers in electrical
departments at vocational colleges and managing this activity according to the capacity
approach of the surveyed vocational colleges is still limited. Some training contents
have not been done well.
The development of steps of capacity building activities for lecturers at electrical
faculty at vocational colleges has not been done very well. Some specific activities of
the implementation process are still limited.
Securing facilities for capacity building activities for lecturers of electrical faculty
at vocational colleges is still difficult due to limited financial resources, and the interest
of school leaders has not been met requirements of training activities.
Reasons for limitations:
Although the leaders of the surveyed vocational colleges have paid attention to
training lecturers in general and improving teaching capacity for lecturers, this training
activity is still limited. One of the reasons is that the investment funds for training
activities are still limited and the facilities do not fully meet the requirements of the
training activities.
Due to the requirements of training human resources for large enterprises, teaching
activities requires frequent moving, so lecturers of vocational colleges have little chance
to go on training about teaching capacity.
A large number of lecturers are still young, and have not had much teaching
experience, and have limited pedagogical skills. Therefore, the teaching capacity is not
very good.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Conclusion
- Regarding the results of theoretical research:
From the review of research works, it is shown that there are few in-depth and systematic
studies on the management of cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of vocational colleges.
The existing studies mainly focus on training activities and the management of training
activities for civil servants and high school teachers. In particular, there are very few studies on
fostering teaching capacity for lecturers at vocational colleges.
Teaching capacity of lecturers in electrical departments at vocational colleges is the
ability to closely and flexibly combine knowledge, skills and attitudes of lecturers to
effectively carry out teaching activities at vocational colleges and is demonstrated
through specific competencies such as: capacity to design teaching; capacity to conduct
teaching, capacity to test, evaluate and capacity to manage teaching. The teaching
capacity of lecturers in electrical departments at vocational colleges consists of 4
components: capacity to design teaching; capacity to conduct teaching, capacity to test,
evaluate and capacity to manage teaching at vocational colleges.
Cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of vocational colleges is an activity of
equipping and updating knowledge and skills to help lecturers improve their capacity to
design teaching; capacity to conduct teaching, capacity to test, evaluate and capacity to
manage teaching at vocational colleges.
The management of cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers at vocational
colleges is the oriented, purposeful, planned and systematic influence of the Rector of

22


the vocational college on managers and lecturers in order to equipping and updating
knowledge and skills to help lecturers improve their teaching capacity, which is
demonstrated through managing the identification of training needs, objectives,

principles and methods; content; form; program structure and facilities to serve this
training activities of lecturers.
The basic contents of the management of training capacity building for lecturers of
vocational colleges include: (1) Managing the identification of training needs for
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers; (2) Managing objectives, principles and
methods of cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers; (3) Managing the content of
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers; (4) Managing the forms of cultivating
teaching capacity for lecturers; (5) Managing the program structure of cultivating
teaching capacity for lecturers; (6) Managing facilities for cultivating teaching capacity
for lecturers
- Regarding the study results of the actual situation
The overall assessment of the current situation of the management on cultivating teaching
capacity for lecturers of electrical departments at vocational colleges is at an average level,
which is not quite good, but not at a weak level. This shows that the management on
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of electrical departments at vocational colleges has
met the requirements of training capacity for teachers of the surveyed vocational colleges.
However, compared with the requirements of improving teaching capacity of lecturers in the
current context of human resource training for market economic development and
international integration, this training activity is still limited.
The surveyed subjective and objective factors have a great influence on the training and
the management of cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers at the surveyed vocational
colleges. Most of the respondents in these groups of factors that are influential and very
influential. Among the four groups of factors surveyed, " Factors belonging to lecturers
who are on the training " and "factors belonging to management environment and
working conditions" are more influential.
- Regarding solutions
From the results of theoretical and practical research, the thesis proposes 5
management solutions to foster teaching capacity for lecturers of electrical departments
at vocational colleges. The test results show that the proposed solutions are both
necessary and highly feasible.

The thesis has tested solution 4: Develop the steps of the management process of
cultivating teaching capacity for lecturers of electrical departments at vocational
colleges. The test results show that the solution is rated higher after the test than before
the test. This confirmed the feasibility of the solution and the experimental hypothesis
was proven.
