By analyzing the relationship between sustainability and education, the authors developed a tool to support The Hanoi Tower Model of Excellence, an aspect of the Vietnamese education system. The paper presents a psychometric model of multiple talents based on a psychometric classification approach with several types of talent factors.
This multidimensional model called “HTME” consists of a variety of relatively independent ability factor groups (predictors), and various performance domains (criterion variables), as well as personality traits and social environment factors that serve as moderators for the transition of individual potentials into excellent performance in various domains. Its application to guide instruction by using technology and a pilot study as a part of the HTME are presented.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
- I. INTRODUCTION: This chapter introduces the concept of sustainable development, highlighting the significance of intra-generational and intergenerational equity. It discusses the key concepts of 'needs' and 'limits' as defined by the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED) in the 1987 report "Our Common Future." It further examines the UN Conference on Environment and Development and the subsequent initiatives, including the UN Decade for Education for Sustainable Development (ESD).
- II. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION: This chapter emphasizes the importance of education in achieving sustainable development. It explores the concept of ESD as a continuous process for developing knowledge, skills, and values to empower individuals to work towards a balanced future. The chapter introduces the Hanoi Tower Model of Excellence (HTME) as a multidimensional model for assessing multiple talents and promoting excellence in education.
- III. RESULTS: This chapter presents the findings of the pilot study conducted to validate the HTME. The study utilized a new feedback form called TIC-c, designed to assess students' perceptions of technology, innovative teaching, creative learning, and creative potential. It explores the model's psychometric properties and provides evidence for its practical value in assessing and fostering creative learning and innovative teaching.
