In tourism research, items such as beaches, gastronomy, infrastructure, and receptivity are evaluated and, in this context, shipwreck tourism is little explored or known about by tourists and the local population. Yet this form of tourism can provide an opportunity. This study aims to evaluate the opportunity of shipwreck tourism aroundthe wreck of the steamship Alice and specifically, to analyze the historical process of formation and appropriation of this wreck as a tourism attraction. This is a quantitative and qualitative study, with an exploratory and descriptive approach. It is organized into two parts, one theoretical and the other reporting the results of field research. The result consists of historical data on the sinking of the steamship Alice, and data obtained in the field research with tourists. It was seen the city of João Pessoa (PB) has important potential for the development of shipwreck tourism, due to its large number of shipwrecks, with the locations of approximately fifty-sixwrecks currently mapped, and also due to the interest of tourists in this form of tourism. It was verified that Shipwreck Tourism provides an opportunity for knowledge, innovation, and economic benefits.
在旅游研究中,对海滩、美食、基础设施和接受性等项目进行评估,在这种情况下,沉船旅游很少被游客和当地居民探索或了解。然而,这种形式的旅游可以提供一个机会。本研究旨在评估爱丽丝号蒸汽船残骸周围的沉船旅游机会,具体来说,分析这艘沉船作为旅游景点的形成和占有的历史过程。这是一项定量和定性研究,采用探索性和描述性的方法。它分为两部分,一部分是理论研究,另一部分是实地研究结果的报告。结果包括爱丽丝号轮船沉没的历史数据,以及与游客一起实地调查获得的数据。人们认为jo o Pessoa (PB)市在沉船旅游的发展方面具有重要的潜力,因为它有大量的沉船,目前已经绘制了大约56艘沉船的位置,也因为游客对这种形式的旅游感兴趣。事实证明,沉船旅游提供了知识、创新和经济效益的机会。

At the heart of the concept of heritage is the idea of preserving the past through multiple elements, which may range from materiality to value within a society. Bringing these aspects to the tourist context, heritage tourism can be understood as the contemplation of phenomena that carry values related to a community’s past. The focus of this research was the Atalaia de Forte Velho in the state of Paraíba. The watchtower was built by the Portuguese as a port defense during the 16th century, and was listed as a heritage site by IPHAN in 1938. Taking these aspects into account, the study analyzes the underestimated tourism potential of the region, from the perspective of the historical and socioeconomic appreciation of the local community. Through an observatory methodology, the site, the infrastructure of the tourist trade and the provision of services for the population were analyzed. The results show that the site has potential to develop heritage tourism. Based on these results, a comparison was made with another heritage site in the same category, seeking to propose the development of actions that could promote the destination and improve the tourist experience, bringing benefits not only for the local community, but also helping to preserve the heritage for future generations.
遗产概念的核心是通过多种元素来保护过去,这些元素可以从物质到社会价值。将这些方面纳入旅游环境,遗产旅游可以被理解为对承载与社区过去相关价值的现象的沉思。这项研究的重点是Paraíba州的Atalaia de Forte Velho。这座瞭望塔是葡萄牙人在16世纪建造的港口防御工事,1938年被iiphan列为文化遗产。考虑到这些方面,本研究从当地社区的历史和社会经济评价的角度分析了该地区被低估的旅游潜力。通过观察站方法,对该地点、旅游贸易的基础设施和为人口提供的服务进行了分析。结果表明,该遗址具有开发遗产旅游的潜力。基于这些结果,与同一类别的另一个遗产地进行了比较,试图提出可以推广目的地和改善旅游体验的发展行动,不仅为当地社区带来好处,而且有助于为子孙后代保护遗产。

The day-to-day activities of lodging businesses are marked by hospitality, but this routine was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Gradually, the sector resumed its activities, implementing specific protocols and good hygiene practices to prevent the spread of COVID-19 while providing guests with hospitality and safety. Guests share their experiences on the Internet, providing information about their stay and evaluating establishments based on the quality of services provided. This information determines the performance of lodging facilities and generates an online reputation that can influence the decision-making of future potential guests. The goal of this research was to analyze the guest experience of twelve hotels categorized as 4- and 5-star, located in the city of João Pessoa in the Brazilian state of Paraíba (PB), during the period of the pandemic, using User-Generated Content (UGC) available on the website Booking.com. The guest experience reported on websites is considered a reliable database, hence our decision to use it as a data collection instrument. A descriptive netnographic survey was conducted, and it was found that in addition to issues related to hospitality, biosecurity, and infrastructure, the breakfast service was a predominant and decisive factor in the guests' evaluation.
住宿企业的日常活动以热情好客为特征,但这种日常活动受到了COVID-19大流行的严重影响。该部门逐渐恢复了活动,实施了具体的协议和良好的卫生习惯,以防止COVID-19的传播,同时为客人提供热情和安全。客人在互联网上分享他们的经历,提供住宿信息,并根据所提供的服务质量对酒店进行评价。这些信息决定了住宿设施的性能,并产生了可以影响未来潜在客人决策的在线声誉。本研究的目的是利用Booking.com网站上提供的用户生成内容(UGC),分析疫情期间巴西Paraíba州jo o Pessoa市12家4星级和5星级酒店的客人体验。网站上报告的客人体验被认为是一个可靠的数据库,因此我们决定将其用作数据收集工具。我们进行了一项描述性网络调查,结果发现,除了与热情好客、生物安全和基础设施相关的问题外,早餐服务是客人评价中的一个主要和决定性因素。

Higher education goes beyond the development of technical skills, and plays a central role in the social transformation of the environment in which it is inserted. This role is fostered within institutions through research, teaching and extension. This work is a report of the experience of students of the APAE of São Pedro, within the extension project "APAE no Senac", carried out by the Centro Universitário Senac, Águas de São Pedro campus (SP). Its purpose was to promote the social inclusion of these people, given that one of the main functions of gastronomy, since the discovery of fire, has been to bring people together. The APAE students were able to gain experience of activities of the degree in gastronomy technology by applying cooking and recipe replication techniques, in a controlled environment, in twelve demonstrative and practical classes, accompanied by project scholarship students and advisory professors from the HEI. The classes were developed in the kitchens and restaurant laboratories of the college. It was observed that there is potential for replicability of the work model, due to its characteristics and the low investment required. There is also potential to generate the teaching experience for HEI students and social inclusion for APAE students, through the mastery of new tools and techniques in the area of gastronomy.
高等教育超越了技术技能的发展,在其所处环境的社会变革中发挥着核心作用。这种作用通过研究、教学和推广在各机构内得到培养。这项工作是一份关于 o佩德罗 APAE学生的经验报告,在扩展项目“APAE no Senac”中,由Águas de sere o佩德罗校区(SP) Universitário Senac中心开展。它的目的是促进这些人的社会包容,因为自从火被发现以来,美食的主要功能之一就是把人们聚集在一起。APAE的学生在HEI的项目奖学金学生和顾问教授的陪同下,在受控的环境下,通过应用烹饪和食谱复制技术,在12个示范性和实践性课程中获得了烹饪技术学位活动的经验。这些课程是在学院的厨房和餐厅实验室里进行的。有人指出,由于工作模式的特点和所需的低投资,有可能复制这种模式。通过掌握烹饪领域的新工具和技术,也有可能为高等教育学生提供教学经验,为APAE学生提供社会融入。

This study analyzes the Categorization of Tourist Municipalities in the Rio Grande do Sul, and discusses the process of regionalization of tourism in the State and how tourism has impacted the development of the localities of Rio Grande do Sul that are part of the Brazilian Tourism Map, in light of the performance of their respective tourism economies. For this, an exploratory and descriptive study was carried out, based on secondary data available on the Mapa do Turismo 2019-2021 Portal of the Brazilian Ministry of Tourism. As a result, the categorization of tourist municipalities was created from the Tourism Regionalization Program, dividing the State of Rio Grande do Sul into twenty-seven tourist regions. The results show that in addition to the capital Porto Alegre, the Região das Hortênsias is the most important tourist destination in the state; it is the region with the most abundant offer of accommodation facilities, the one that generates more jobs in the hotel industry, and the one that collects the most taxes in the sector. Also of note are the Costa Doce, the Litoral Norte Gaúcho and the Região da Fronteira.
本研究分析了南里奥格兰德州旅游城市的分类,并讨论了该州旅游区域化的过程,以及旅游业如何影响了南里奥格兰德州作为巴西旅游地图一部分的地方的发展,根据各自旅游经济的表现。为此,根据巴西旅游部Mapa do Turismo 2019-2021门户网站上的二手数据,进行了一项探索性和描述性研究。因此,根据旅游区域化计划创建了旅游城市分类,将南里奥格兰德州划分为27个旅游区。结果表明,除了首都阿雷格里港外,regito o das Hortênsias是该州最重要的旅游目的地;它是住宿设施最丰富的地区,为酒店业创造了更多的就业机会,也是该行业税收最多的地区。同样值得注意的还有Costa Doce, Litoral Norte Gaúcho和regio da Fronteira。

This work is a report of the experience of the extension project 'APAE no SENAC: a contribution to an inclusive society', conducted by the SENAC Águas de São Pedro in “emergency remote” (ERE) mode, during a period when face-to-face meetings were not possible. For the development of the activities, the active gamification methodology was chosen as a strategy for stimulating cognitive skills, such as inductive reasoning, memorization, and attention. The activities took place throughout 2021, via meetings on the Zoom platform. It was found that gastronomy has considerable potential to promote social inclusion for people with intellectual difficulties. The importance of interdisciplinarity activities in university extension programs, and the use of active methodologies and gamification as a relevant strategy for constructing knowledge in education, were also observed.

This study presents a review of the literature on the interconnection between the quality of the night sky and the growing interest in astrotourism. As a basis for the data collection, studies of secondary documentary were used. It was observed that there is growing interest in the subject among academics considering the possibilities of astrotourism activity, due to the distinctive elements of the offer in the field of tourism, as well providing an element of fun and enjoyment, in the tourists’ perception. The study is relevant in view of the small number of studies in Brazil on the subject and the possibility of incorporating this type of service in the national tourist sector, as well as the possibility of including astrotourism as a distinctive element of the offer in rural areas, as occurs in other countries.

The Bumba-meu-boi is a traditional festival that takes place in the Northeast of Brazil, and is one of the most important festivals in Brazilian popular culture. In Parnaíba, in the state of Piauí, there is Rei da Boiada cultural group that carries high symbolic value for those who take part in the ritual. This group is part of the cultural heritage of the city that is home to the participants, who invest a great deal of love, dedication and effort to the art, dance and local culture. Based on a case study of the Rei da Boiada Group, this qualitative research study investigates whether the Bumba-meu-boi Rei da Boiada cultural festival can be considered a tourist attraction. The methods used in this research included a bibliographic review, field study and interviews. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and field observations from 2015 to 2019. The descriptive and explanatory method was used for the data analysis. It was concluded that the group is culturally rich and can be considered a tourist attraction, as it is part of the “Festa de Juninha” – the June festival that attracts tourists. But there has been little research on the Bumba-meu-boi itself, despite its great potential to contribute to the development of cultural tourism in the city.
Bumba-meu-boi是巴西东北部的一个传统节日,也是巴西流行文化中最重要的节日之一。在Parnaíba,在Piauí州,有一个Rei da Boiada文化团体,对那些参加仪式的人来说具有很高的象征价值。这个群体是城市文化遗产的一部分,是参与者的家园,他们为艺术、舞蹈和当地文化投入了大量的爱、奉献和努力。本定性研究以Rei da Boiada族群为个案,探讨Bumba-meu-boi Rei da Boiada文化节是否可视为旅游景点。本研究使用的方法包括文献回顾、实地调查和访谈。从2015年到2019年,通过半结构化访谈和实地观察收集数据。采用描述性和解释性方法对数据进行分析。结论是,这个团体文化丰富,可以被认为是一个旅游景点,因为它是“Juninha节”的一部分,这是一个吸引游客的六月节日。尽管Bumba-meu-boi对城市文化旅游的发展有着巨大的潜力,但对它本身的研究却很少。

But there has been little research on the Bumba-meu-boi itself, despite its great potential to contribute to the development of cultural tourism in the city.","PeriodicalId":441840,"journal":{"name":"Applied Tourism","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116712503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the consequences of the social isolation caused by the COVID19 pandemic caused was that it discouraged many students from continuing with studies. This fact was identified by the members of the research group, and it is a situation faced by many people. In view of this scenario, GCET came up with the idea of creating a Lives project, to encourage learning during the pandemic. This study aims to encourage students and teachers, and society in general, to continue teaching, performing research and complementing studies during the period of social isolation, through the organization of weekly Lives – live videos transmitted on the Instagram platform. The first step in the project was to conduct bibliographic and documentary research, seeking the necessary background for the construction and elaboration of the themes to be addressed. Weekly meetings were held, via videoconferencing, to plan the Lives and facilitate communication and preparation of the advance planning to achieve the project objective. The email addresses and Whatsapp accounts of the research group were also used for correspondence, to answer questions, receive suggestions, and conduct surveys on the issues to be addressed during the Lives. Reports on the Lives were prepared and made available on the YouTube, Podcast and Instagram accounts of GCET. This support was essential for the success of the Lives, and for the satisfaction of the public. The project was carried according to the following steps: identification of the problem, theoretical input, weekly planning, survey, distribution of themes and technical support. The project aired a total of sixteen Lives in the period April 17 to July 9, analyzing the ability to meet specific needs and social inclusion. The Lives were held once a week addressing different themes, according to the theoretical findings and the demands of the target audience, resulting in the construction of knowledge and providing new skills to society, encouraging and motivating the practice of scientific knowledge. The experience of the GCET Lives project impacted not only the external participants but also its creators, as it became a motivational tool for scientific knowledge during social isolation. The project demonstrated that technology can be used for different purposes, enabling a new restructuring of scientific knowledge.
