ABOUT

PEN

​PEN (Pioneering Educators Network) was founded and co-organized by IEG Foundation and Fulbright University Vietnam in 2019, which aims at connecting teachers and educators who are devoted to continuously bettering their crafts and delivering innovative high-quality teaching to learners across Vietnam.

The mission of PEN is to provide groundbreaking, essential, and practical educational research knowledge and training conferences for educators in Vietnam and the region.

 

Teachers and educators attending PEN will:

  • get updated on frontier research findings in education and related fields,

  • be introduced to the most innovative and effective teaching practices around the world,

  • have opportunities to practice applying and customizing those teaching approaches to suit their learners and professional contexts,

  • become a life-time member of the PEN FELLOW network to continue sharing educational knowledge and teaching practices, as well as spreading the spirit of continuous learning and improvement within the education sector of Vietnam.

Agenda

Following the success of previous years, PEN 2023 continues to be an intensive practical training conference, shared and led by Vietnamese and international education experts.

The theme of PEN 2023 is methods of liberating thought in teaching, including 02 groundbreaking topics:
