Binary copper and manganese oxide nanoparticle supported oms-2 for enhancing activity and stability toward co oxidation reaction at low temperature

The CuO, CuMnOx and MnOx catalysts were anchored on the manganese oxide support with the structure of octahedral molecular sieves (OMS-2), which were synthesized using MnSO4 and KMnO4 as precursors by are flux method under acidic conditions, by an impregnation method and tested for CO oxidation. These catalysts and OMS-2 support were characterized by the advanced analyzations of X-ray diffraction and FTIR patterns; and SEM performances; and H2-TPR profiles. For CO oxidation reaction, CuO and CuMnOx catalysts showed extremely higher activities than that of MnOx catalyst and OMS-2 support. For the lowest temperature for 100% conversion of CO (T100), the CuO and CuMnOx catalysts were observed at 55 oC and 65 oC, respectively. Due to the present of Cu2+– O2− – Mn4+ ↔ Cu+–□–Mn3+ + O2 redox couple in the structure of these solid catalyst. Additionally, the CuMnOx catalyst showed higher activity (~ 1.74 folds) and better stability than that of CuO catalyst in CO oxidation. Due to the advance functional of binary oxide structure of CuMnOx catalyst As known, CO oxidation may follow the Mars-van-Krevelen mechanism with Cu2+– O2− – Mn4+ ↔ Cu+–□–Mn3+ + O2 redox couple. This study shows the high applicating potential of CuMnOx/OMS-2 material in exhaust treatment for environmental safety

Using learning games for fourth-grade students to teach Vietnamese lessons and teachers' perspectives on learning games

Students can learn   in   a   meaningful way through the use of educational games. When students apply their skills and information in order to progress through a game, a huge degree of engagement is generated among them in the classroom as a result both their capabilities and their learning   increase. 153 children from primary schools in Vietnam participated in this research. The children were split into two groups: an experimental and a control group. Both groups participated in two sessions of word and sentence practice as well as spelling instruction. According to the findings of the study, the educational outcomes of the students are greatly improved when games are used in their classrooms. In addition, research has shown that some teachers are against the use of games in the classroom since it makes it more difficult to prepare educational materials. Some educators believe that playing educational games is a more effective method of instruction as it allows for greater flexibility during the learning process. This makes a contribution to the theoretical framework that is necessary to guide educators and instructors in the process of improving learning game programs for children in primary schools and other learners

Challenges And Opportunities For The Development Of Infrastructure After ‘Oda Graduation’ - Moving Towards Sustainable Development: Case Study Of Vietnam

The research on ODA will be focused on its relation to Goal 17, the Partnership, considered a major issue by the researchers, especially in the case of Vietnam as a developing economy. ODA was mainly used for investing in economic infrastructure when Vietnam witnessed a downfall in receiving financial aid due to its significant economic growth. ODA helped Vietnam transform from one of the world’s poorest nations into a lower middle-income country and soon, this is going to lead to the ‘ODA Graduation’. However, the process has just begun. The country is still in a process of industrialization and modernization and its socio-economic situation has not been stable or solid. By all means, ODA is not only a financial resource, it also helps the country to accomplish Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN. ‘ODA Graduation’ means that the economy of Vietnam has faced certain challenges such as increasing pressure of outbound debts; raising impact on social development or imbalance between high capital recovery investments and public-services investments. However, ‘ODA Graduation’ has brought certain opportunities such as increasing Vietnam’s independence in capital mobilization, preventing the removal of tariffs barrier, reducing losses and waste of funds. This research gives recommendations for improving Vietnam’s economic situation and can help overcome the difficulties in the period of ‘ODA Graduation’

Survey on Vietnamese teachers’ perspectives and perceived support during COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented damage to the educational system worldwide. Besides the measurable economic impacts in the short-term and long-term, there is intangible destruction within educational institutions. In particular, teachers – the most critical intellectual resources of any schools – have to face various types of financial, physical, and mental struggles due to COVID-19. To capture the current context of more than one million Vietnamese teachers during COVID-19, we distributed an e- survey to more than 2,500 randomly selected teachers from two major teacher communities on Facebook from 6th to 11th April 2020. From over 373 responses, we excluded the observations which violated our cross-check questions and retained 294 observations for further analysis. This dataset includes: (i) Demographics of participants; (ii) Teachers' perspectives regarding the operation of teaching activities during the pandemic; (iii) Teachers' received support from their schools, government bodies, other stakeholders such as teacher unions, and parents' associations; and (iv) teachers' evaluation of school readiness toward digital transformation. Further, the dataset was supplemented with an additional question on the teachers' primary source of professional development activities during the pandemic
