The mobilization of social resources for educational development in schools is considered an important demonstration of the roles and responsibilities of parents and the community for the cause of education. This paper describes the frequency and efficiency of nine categories of social resources mobilization used in secondary schools in the South of Vietnam. The research team identified the reasons for and methods by which the mobilization of social resources takes place in six secondary schools in Southern Vietnam. We combined a questionnaire, completed by 202 school teachers and school managers, with in-depth interviews, observation and document analysis. The results showed high levels of both implementation and efficiency (scale reliability Cronbach alpha 0.93 and 0.92) of the mobilization of social resources, revealing a high interest in and engagement with social resources mobilization by social educational forces. Based on those results, we make a number of suggestions for improving the efficiency of this work, particularly in the South of Vietnam in reality.

The data presented here contain information on cheating behavior from experiments and general self-reported attitudes related to honesty-related social norms and trust, together with individual-level demographic variables. Our sample included 493 university students in five countries, namely, Germany, Vietnam, Taiwan, China, and Japan. The experiment was monetarily incentivized based on the performance on a matrix task. The participants also answered a survey questionnaire. The dataset is valuable for academic researchers in sociology, psychology, and economics who are interested in honesty, norms, and cultural differences.

This study focuses on the perception of in-service teachers towards training programmes conducted by District Institutes of Education and Training with the objective to evaluate the in-service teacher training programmes. A sample of 60 head teachers and 480 in-service teachers of upper primary schools was selected from 4 Districts of Himachal Pradesh and the survey method of research was used. It has been found in this study that the training programmes enhance the competence of teachers, develop their professional efficiency and better teaching skills and also update and refresh the knowledge of teachers. Resource persons were satisfying because of their usage of power point presentations through computers and laptops. Training about action research proved to be very helpful for the teachers. But the problems and suggestions must be taken into consideration for the smooth functioning of training programmes. The current study is significant in terms of bringing qualitative improvement in the teaching-learning scenario.

Integration of teaching is described as the systematic arrangement of knowledge in teaching to combine or unify matters of subject isolated in the academic curriculum.

Participants completed survey questionnaires about the awareness about objectives for fostering quality integrated teaching, the objectives’ importance in integrated teaching, and the implementation of integrated teaching of Natural Science subjects. The results revealed that the integrated teaching in integrated teaching of Natural Science subjects was highly trained and well-implemented by secondary school teachers. The educational curriculum assists students in discovering, investigating comprehensive solutions, and examining various aspects of problems.
