Abstract
The three theories discussed in this paper will be Yosso’s (2005) Community Cultural Wealth (CCW), Perry’s (1968) Intellectual and Ethical Development, and Chickering’s (1969) Developmental Vectors. These theories provide a framework to reflect on my educational journey as a Vietnamese-American, first-generation student. Theory allows practitioners to observe and gauge whether the psychological development of their students is healthy as the students try to find a sense of belonging, explore their passions, and establish future goals. By understanding developmental theories and recognizing my own development as a student, I can better appreciate and support students’ cultural, intellectual, and identity development as a practitioner.
