Education system of Vietnam in the past

Because of 1,000 years under the control of China, there were no records that indicated a formal education system in Vietnam. In 939, Emperor Ngo Quyen expelled the Chinese invaders and declared Vietnamese independence. But the first two dynasties, Ngo and Dinh, did not last so long and were busy with the national defense, so the education was just in pagodas. Ly Cong Uan, the founder king of the Ly dynasty had been educated in a pagoda.

To the Ly dynasty, the fundamental educational system was officially improved. King Ly Thanh Tong established the Temple of Literature at the ancient Capital of Thang Long to encourage people to appreciate the education. In 1075, the first exam was done by the order of King Ly Nhan Tong to select scholars for office, and the later year, 1076, the Imperial Academy, the first university in Vietnam’s history, was set up for the education of sons of royalty and other high – ranking officials.

There were also many private classes taught by prominent scholars such as Chu Van An, Le Quy Don,

Nguyen Binh Khiem, Phung Khac Khoan, Vo Truong Toan… The students would only study literature and ancient history of China, of Viet Nam for the entirety of their schooling. Later on, the Public Administration curriculum was finally added to the program. When the Ho Royal family ruled the country, students were taught simple mathematics.

From 1918 to 1945, Vietnam’s education program has adopted the western educational system with three levels: elementary, high school, and college. At all levels, from 1945 the Vietnamese National language is officially used. Students have the opportunity to learn literature, history, philosophy, law, science, math, medicine, and as well as other languages.

The dust is so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft.
Next day, the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Michael Collins in the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they were off on their trip back to earth. Behind them they left the plains and tall mountains of the moon. They left the machines they had set up. And they left footprints that may last forever.

When the men returned to earth, they ___________
