Use the notes section beneath the slide to explain your ideas. Conduct more research on Vietnam and apply the concepts of Folk Culture and Popular Culture to that
country. You will also explain how these concepts fit into the Five
Themes of Geography. The themes of Place, Movement and Regions goes
nicely with the concepts of Folk and Popular Culture.
You will need to do some
outside research to complete this activity. To find information, Google
the country and the topic of the questions below. Please note that
sometimes elements/remnants of folk culture can be found by using the words
“traditions, traditional culture, local culture, etc.” You’ll have to
decide if what you find reflects folk culture in one way or another.
Wikipedia is not a reliable source.
Answer the following
questions. Do not just copy information to answer the question. Put
things in your own words and write in complete sentences. This needs to

4. You need to use
details from the information in this learning outcome and from your own
research to help you explain your ideas.
