Thực trạng quản lý hoạt động giáo dục hướng nghiệp cho học sinh Trường Trung học cơ sở Chi Lăng ở phường Khánh Hội, Thành phố hồ Chí Minh

Abstract

Given the fundamental and comprehensive educational reform, career guidance at the lower secondary level plays an important role in orienting students’ learning and career pathways, thereby contributing to effective student streaming. This study analyzes the current situation of managing career guidance activities for students at Chi Lang Lower Secondary School, Khanh Hoi Ward, Ho Chi Minh City. A questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale surveyed 75 participants (including 15 administrators and 60 teachers), combined with in-depth interviews with five administrators and ten teachers to further clarify the survey results. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods with the support of Microsoft Excel. The findings indicate that the management of career guidance activities at the school has been implemented across key functions, including awareness of roles, planning, organization of implementation, direction, and inspection and evaluation. However, the implementation remains uneven, particularly in terms of resource mobilization, goal specification, and post-activity evaluation. The study provides important practical evidence for proposing measures to improve the effectiveness of managing career guidance activities in lower secondary schools.
