Abstract

Digitalization is radically disruptive and changing the fundamental assumptions of the way of life and organization of work in a postmodern society, which is becoming more globalized and more digitalized than ever before. Therefore it is becoming increasingly important for organizations to quickly, efficiently, and appropriately plan the digital transformation to achieve flexibility and to maintain market competitiveness. In this context, the understanding of digitalization and related concepts is vital. The paper explores the journey of integrating digital technologies into Vietnam's education system. The study delves into the evolution of policies related to digital transformation and their implementation at the school level. By examining the transition from theoretical frameworks to practical applications, the paper sheds light on the challenges and successes encountered in this process. Through detailed analysis, the paper offers valuable insights into the digital transformation of education in Vietnam, highlighting the critical link between policy formulation and its real-world implementation within educational institutions.
