Through social science education, students are formed and developed with the capacity for social sciences, including components such as social science awareness, social inquiry, and application of acquired knowledge and skills to self-discovery, community exploration, society, and analysis and problem-solving in the areas of society, politics, and culture in specific time and space; performing inter-cultural dialogues in the era of globalization and integration.
Social science education is implemented in multiple subjects and educational activities, with core subjects including: Natural and Social Sciences (grades 1, 2, and 3); History and Geography (from grade 4 to grade 9); History, Geography (high school level).
The core content of these subjects is organized according to main themes: general outline, world, region, Vietnam, and locality, ensuring the following structure: evolution process (time, space), historical process of nation-building and defense, the creation of Vietnamese civilization – the nation’s cultural identity; the development of social progress and the reasons for the prosperity or decline of nations throughout different periods; key achievements in economy, society, culture, civilization; individuals and groups in cooperative and competitive relationships; natural conditions and natural resources; population characteristics, settlement patterns in historical spaces and times; economic structure and distribution; several interdisciplinary topics connecting the content of history, socio-economic geography, and physical geography.
The content of these subjects also has an interdisciplinary, integrative nature with other fields like: language and literature education, civic education, national defense and security education, economic and law education, etc.
Social science education content is divided into two phases: the basic education phase and the career-oriented education phase.
