Abstract: Informational texts play a crucial role in modern society and are essential within the academic and professional training of university students majoring in Vietnamese language education. As a core component of the academic curriculum, mastering informational writing is vital for their future roles as educators, directly supporting their professional development and effectiveness in teaching after graduation. This study surveyed 366 students from 11 universities in Vietnam to assess their current ability to compose informational texts. The Likert scale was used as a survey tool, complemented by a test instrument to evaluate students' competence in writing informational texts. Methods such as classroom observations and lesson reviews were incorporated, along with interviews with both teachers and students after lessons. Based on the findings, the study proposes several measures to enhance students' writing skills in informational texts within Vietnamese language education: i) developing curriculum materials aimed at improving students' writing competencies; ii) leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to support the enhancement of writing skills; and iii) providing a series of writing exercises for practice and improvement. This study will contribute to the development of students' writing skills and serve as a basis for proposing innovations in the training program for literature teachers in Vietnam.
