How did vietnamization differ from the war policies of nixon's predecessors (be sure to define vietnamization in your answer (pretty ))

Vietnamization was the action of turning responsibility of the Vietnam war to South Vietnam. To do this, Nixon had to pull U.S soldiers out of the war, and he did this because he thought that the Army of the Republic of Vietnam could fight their own war themselves. He slowly pulled the troops out, but it had a lack of results. When he put his plan to action, nothing barely happened. On the other hand, with past presidents, either their plan was effective in a good or a bad way, and you still saw results. 

Hope I could help, have a great day! :)
