In recent years, the development of digital resources in education has become increasingly common. This trend reflects a growing need for easily-accessible learning materials for teachers and learners. This study, through a review of national and international literature and surveys of practical needs, aims to propose a process for designing and utilizing digital resources in History education at the secondary school level in Vietnam. Key findings include an analysis of theoretical perspectives, the current state of digital resource usage, and recommendations for standardized procedures and strategies to enhance teaching, learning and assessment activities. The study specifically focuses on “War and Peace in the 20th Century,” a new topic in the 11th-grade History curriculum, which requires students to synthesize knowledge about global conflicts in the 20th century. The study's feasibility was examined through experiments with 11th-grade students at several upper secondary schools in Vietnam. The use of digital resources helps students develop both general and subject-specific competencies, contributing to improvements in the effectiveness of History education in the country.
