| Publisher Description: Vi t Nam Famous for a war, an exotic destination, and now a world partner in the global community. Ball State University students explore the land and culture as an "immersive learning project" to bring the modern face of that country home. This introduction to Vi t Nam, and to Mimi and her family, will bring into focus a dynamic emerging player on the world stage and the face of a friendly outgoing people not often seen in Western literature. This teaching unit consisting of a DVD, a book and teaching materials, has been entirely developed by Ball State and its students to introduce others to a country they have found so hospitable. During three trips to Vietnam, these students have repeatedly stated that there needs to be a way to introduce other Americans to the friends they have made half a world away. This teaching packet is the product of that desire. Welcome to Vietnam." |
