DỊCH:

Interviewer: We have invited some students from Oak Tree School in Happy Valley to this Beyond 2030 forum, and they are going to share with us their vision of the future. Would you like to go first, Phong? 

Phong: I believe the biggest change will take place within the school system. Apart from at school, we will also be learning from places which will give us real-life knowledge and experience, such as at a railway station, in a company, or on a farm.

Mai: I agree. This real-life application of learning will give us a sense of participation, a feeling that we are part of the process.

Interviewer: And what about the role of teachers? 

Phong: Ah, they will be more like facilitators, rather than information providers. 

Interviewer: Fascinating. How else do you see the future, Nguyen?

Nguyen: Well, I think the role of fathers will drastically change.

Interviewer: Oh yes? In what way?

Nguyen: The modern father will not necessarily be the breadwinner of the family. He may be externally employed or he may stay at home to take care of his children. 

Interviewer: And do the housework?

Nguyen:  Yes. It’s work, paid or not, isn’t it? 

Mai: Absolutely. The benefi t will be that children will see their fathers more often and have a closer relationship with them. I don’t see much of my dad, but I love every moment I spend with him. 

Interviewer: Well, we are certainly covering some interesting topics …
