This handbook begins with a brief discussion of Vietnamese religion, values, characteristics, and customs, and then describes the educational system of Vietnam and the behavioral expectations for its children. The third section of this handbook discusses the adjustments and conflicts faced by Vietnamese refugee children. Finally, some educational suggestions are presented which focus primarily on administrative concerns and the learning of English. Appendices include six bibliographies: (1) Indochinese Refugee Guides; (2) Vietnamese History, Literature, and Folklore; (3) English as a Second Language Teaching Materials; (4) Bilingual and Vietnamese Materials: K-12; (5) Bilingual/Bicultural Education and Materials; and (6) Reading on Bilingual/Bicultural Evaluations.
