Abstract

ABSTRACT This case study illustrates the challenges and strategies adopted by the instructor and the Tour Dure producer in designing a tourism geography service-learning course during the COVID-19 pandemic. It focuses on a teaching experience in a course titled “Tourism Place Management Project” which involved collaboration with Tour Dure businesses in Goesan County of South Korea. In so doing, the initial course objectives and the activities based on the experiential learning theory adopted for the course are illustrated. Then challenges and the adjusted measures to cope with the pandemic are explained. The main challenges were caused by limited opportunities for offline activities including fieldwork and the students’ group meetings. Strategies adopted to cope with the challenges included providing small-group sessions for the students, including the fieldwork and online sessions with the instructor and the Tour Dure producer. Also, the instructor, the Tour Dure producer, the businesses, and the students were encouraged to share diverse materials among themselves. As a result, the students acknowledged the importance of the service-learning experience despite the limitations caused by the pandemic. This case study provides implications on how service-learning can be conducted when offline learning experiences are limited.

通过旅游地理课程进行疫情期间的服务学习
摘要本案例研究说明了讲师和Tour Dure制作人在新冠肺炎大流行期间设计旅游地理服务学习课程时所面临的挑战和采取的策略。它专注于一门名为“旅游场所管理项目”的课程的教学经验,该课程涉及与韩国果山县Tour Dure企业的合作。在此过程中,阐述了课程的初始目标和基于经验学习理论的活动。然后解释了应对疫情的挑战和调整后的措施。主要挑战是线下活动的机会有限,包括实地调查和学生小组会议。为应对挑战而采取的策略包括为学生提供小组会议,包括实地调查和与讲师和Tour Dure制作人的在线会议。此外,还鼓励讲师、Tour Dure制作人、企业和学生相互分享各种材料。因此,尽管疫情造成了限制,但学生们承认了服务学习体验的重要性。本案例研究提供了在离线学习体验有限的情况下如何进行服务学习的启示。
