ABSTRACT Though a lot of studies have analysed the impact of the pandemic on the tourism industry and several suggestions have been made to revive the sector, tourism education is largely overlooked. Tourism and cognate courses offered by higher educational institutions are essentially a part of the tourism system. This study aims to emphasize the perspective of tourism educators with respect to upcoming challenges in the tourism discipline and ways to reinvent and reboot the tourism education in the post-COVID-19 phase. The study adopted a qualitative approach and a total of 22 responses were interpreted. A thematic analysis using the Nvivo 12 plus software was done. Even though there was variability in the respondents’ background, a significant emphasis on curriculum design, industry collaboration, and excellence in research was mutually suggested by the educators. The study suggests that ambidextrous management in tourism education be adopted in post-COVID-19 phase. In other words, educators must become adept at the delivery of courses in a variety of modalities that would enable them to cope with the short and medium-term impacts of teaching in a COVID-19 (incremental innovation), while providing by anticipation of future demands (from industry and students), cutting edge curriculum (radical innovation).
摘要尽管大量研究分析了疫情对旅游业的影响,并提出了振兴旅游业的建议,但旅游教育在很大程度上被忽视了。高等教育机构提供的旅游和同类课程本质上是旅游系统的一部分。本研究旨在强调旅游教育工作者对旅游学科即将面临的挑战的看法,以及在新冠肺炎疫情后阶段重塑和重启旅游教育的方法。该研究采用了定性方法,共对22份答复进行了解读。使用Nvivo 12plus软件进行专题分析。尽管受访者的背景存在差异,但教育工作者相互建议,应高度重视课程设计、行业合作和卓越研究。研究表明,在COVID-19后阶段,应在旅游教育中采用二元管理。换言之,教育工作者必须善于以各种方式提供课程,使他们能够应对新冠肺炎教学的短期和中期影响(渐进式创新),同时通过预测未来需求(来自行业和学生)提供前沿课程(激进式创新)。

ABSTRACT Data analysis skills are key competencies which today’s students in higher education must acquire. Among non-cognitive factors hindering the acquisition of these competencies are negative attitudes towards Statistics. This study analyzes attitudes towards Statistics among tourism students enrolled on their first Statistics course, paying special attention to its evolution from the beginning to the end of the course. Positive attitudes are a desirable course result, and its development needs to be assessed. An exploratory factor analysis performed on the SATS-28© items reveals the existence of three main components of students’ attitudes towards Statistics: Anxiety, Affect & Self-confidence, and Value. At the end of the course, only the Anxiety dimension improved its score. Since there is an absolute lack of research on tourism students’ attitudes towards Statistics, it would be advisable to carry out further research, extending the preliminary methodology presented in this research to other courses, universities, and countries.
摘要数据分析技能是当今高等教育学生必须具备的关键能力。阻碍获得这些能力的非认知因素包括对统计学的负面态度。本研究分析了参加第一门统计学课程的旅游专业学生对统计学的态度,特别关注了从课程开始到结束的演变。积极的态度是一个理想的课程结果,它的发展需要评估。对SATS-28项目进行的探索性因素分析揭示了学生对统计学态度的三个主要组成部分:焦虑、情感和自信以及价值观。在课程结束时,只有焦虑维度的得分有所提高。由于绝对缺乏对旅游学生对统计的态度的研究,因此最好进行进一步的研究,将本研究中提出的初步方法推广到其他课程、大学和国家。

ABSTRACT In response to the early stages of the Coronavirus pandemic in January, 2020, an opportunity was created to apply for grant funding to host a real-time, social media teaching modality that would help Hospitality and Tourism Management (HTM) students remain engaged [and enrolled] in classes as they quickly pivoted to the practice social distancing. This new modality [ZOOM] was also intended to connect former students, alumni, and industry professionals to industry leadership through an online [streaming] format. The initial proposal indicated faculty would travel offsite, visiting alumni and former students to conduct interviews and bring the classroom to students as they returned home early. However, as the situation continued to evolve, it was determined traveling would not be feasible. As a result, the initiative evolved into the planning and facilitation of a virtual event/conference attended by approximately 500 students, alumni, and industry professionals from around the globe.
摘要为了应对2020年1月冠状病毒大流行的早期阶段,我们创造了一个申请拨款的机会,以举办一种实时的社交媒体教学模式,帮助酒店和旅游管理(HTM)的学生在迅速转向保持社交距离时保持参与[并注册]课堂。这种新模式[ZOOM]还旨在通过在线[流媒体]形式将以前的学生、校友和行业专业人士与行业领导者联系起来。最初的提议表明,教职员工将前往校外,拜访校友和前学生进行面试,并在学生提前回家时将教室带给他们。然而,随着形势的不断发展,人们决定旅行是不可行的。因此,该倡议演变为一场虚拟活动/会议的规划和促进,来自全球各地的约500名学生、校友和行业专业人士参加了该活动/会议。

ABSTRACT Application of quantitative techniques in the study of tourism phenomena has gained momentum in the last two decades. Various quantitative methods allow researchers to investigate problems encompassing, for instance, tourists’ behaviors, destinations efficiency, or tourism demand forecasting. However, statistical apparatus in the hands of a professional can either reveal a great deal about the world or conversely, deceive thousands of people. Past research touching upon the subject of scientific misbehaviors focused primarily on answering questions of who?, when? or how often?, leaving the matter of how specifically? rather uninvestigated. In the current paper, a grey area between quantitative data modification and falsification is discussed with the intention to build greater awareness among undergraduate students about potential pitfalls related to the execution of quantitative inquiries. To increase transparency and credibility of future scientific endeavors, practical recommendations are proposed on how to work responsibly within the confines of quantitative tourism research.
在过去的二十年里,定量技术在旅游现象研究中的应用得到了迅猛发展。各种定量方法使研究人员能够研究包括游客行为、目的地效率或旅游需求预测等在内的问题。然而,专业人员手中的统计仪器要么可以揭示世界的许多情况,要么反过来,欺骗成千上万的人。过去关于科学不端行为的研究主要集中在回答“谁?”,更待何时?或者多久一次?,剩下的问题是如何具体?而被知晓。在本文中,讨论了定量数据修改和伪造之间的灰色地带,旨在提高本科生对与执行定量调查相关的潜在陷阱的认识。为了提高未来科学研究的透明度和可信度,作者就如何在定量旅游研究的范围内负责任地开展工作提出了切实可行的建议。

ABSTRACT The high dropout rate from Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) has been a major concern of researchers and educators over the years. Although academic papers on MOOCs have mushroomed over the past ten years, few studies have focused on MOOC dropout and retention. In particular, research on hospitality and tourism MOOCs has remained nascent despite the field’s significant contribution to international business and global employment. Because of the lack of relevant literature on hospitality and tourism MOOCs, this study conducts a systematic review of the MOOC literature on the broader education field, examining the MOOC dropout phenomenon and retention strategies. The results of a content analysis based on journal articles’ main research topic show four clusters: prediction, continuance intention, motivation, and attrition. Thematic analysis is used to categorize the dropout factors into seven major themes: learning experience, interactivity, course design, technology, language, time, and situation. This paper concludes with a summary of the results, recommendations, practical implications, limitations, and directions for future research.
多年来,大规模在线开放课程(MOOCs)的高辍学率一直是研究人员和教育工作者关注的主要问题。尽管关于MOOC的学术论文在过去十年中如雨后春笋般涌现,但很少有研究关注MOOC的退出和保留情况。特别是,尽管酒店和旅游mooc领域对国际商业和全球就业做出了重大贡献,但该领域的研究仍处于起步阶段。由于酒店和旅游MOOC的相关文献较少,本研究对更广泛的教育领域的MOOC文献进行了系统的回顾,考察了MOOC的辍学现象和保留策略。基于期刊论文主要研究主题的内容分析结果显示,预测、延续意图、动机和流失四类聚类。通过主题分析,将辍学因素分为七大主题:学习体验、交互性、课程设计、技术、语言、时间和情境。本文最后总结了研究结果、建议、现实意义、局限性和未来研究方向。

ABSTRACT Hotel management trainee (MT) programs have ubiquitously been adopted by the hotel industry. However, the knowledge of important MT competencies has not been updated for almost a decade to respond to changes in the current generations of MTs and their managers. This study chooses Thailand as a research setting due to its emerging challenges in MT programs. This study aims to investigate (1) the key challenges faced by Thai MTs, (2) the crucial competency set for MTs, and (3) the MT competency gap from the points of view of MTs and educators. Data derived from interviews with 10 successful MTs and 10 educators demonstrate gaps in the challenges and MT competencies. Research findings suggest the following: 1) Generation gap has some influences on the perception toward the required MT competencies. 2) “Adaptability,” “Leadership skills,” “Listening to feedback from others” are top three characteristics for MTs under the Thai context. 3) Although educators emphasize critical thinking, strategic positioning and industry-specific knowledge, MT hoteliers highly focus on self-management, communication and leadership domains. Recommendations on curriculum adjustment to decrease the MT competency gap between two stakeholders and the implication on the MT program are suggested to educators and hoteliers.
摘要酒店管理培训生项目已被酒店业普遍采用。然而,近十年来,重要MT能力的知识一直没有更新,以应对当代MT及其管理者的变化。本研究选择泰国作为研究背景,因为它在MT项目中面临着新的挑战。本研究旨在从MT和教育工作者的角度调查(1)泰国MT面临的关键挑战,(2)MT的关键能力集,以及(3)MT能力差距。对10名成功的MT和10名教育工作者的访谈数据表明,在挑战和MT能力方面存在差距。研究结果表明:1)代沟对所需MT能力的认知有一定的影响。2) “适应性”、“领导能力”、“倾听他人反馈”是泰国背景下MT的三大特点。3) 尽管教育工作者强调批判性思维、战略定位和行业特定知识,但MT酒店经营者高度关注自我管理、沟通和领导力领域。向教育工作者和酒店经营者提出了关于课程调整的建议,以缩小两个利益相关者之间的MT能力差距,并对MT项目产生影响。

From Sustainability to the Anthropocene: Reflections on a Pedagogy of Tourism Research for Planetary Attachment 从可持续性到人类世:对行星附件旅游研究教学法的思考

ABSTRACT Though tourism research has become more value-laden in its scholarship and pedagogy, there is still a risk that tourism higher education curricula (re)produce uncritical views of society and sustainability. I argue that research methodology courses and assignments based on data collection can legitimize the use of sustainable tourism solutions based in generalizations and abstractions, rather than encourage the dialogue and reflectivity needed for major change in times of crisis. They also risk promoting a self-serving agenda where researchers (re)produce their success in the knowledge economy. In light of the limitations of the sustainability concept in time of planetary crisis, I look into the possibilities of a tourism research pedagogy in the Anthropocene by uncovering arguments for plurality and deliberation in knowledge production. Social scientists need to address questions of ethics in times of crisis. Conjointly, the Anthropocene highlights our planetary attachment, where human responsibility and social action are imminent.
摘要尽管旅游研究在学术和教育学方面越来越有价值,但旅游高等教育课程仍存在重新产生对社会和可持续性不加批判的观点的风险。我认为,基于数据收集的研究方法课程和作业可以使基于概括和抽象的可持续旅游解决方案的使用合法化,而不是鼓励在危机时期进行重大变革所需的对话和反思。他们还冒着推动研究人员在知识经济中重新取得成功的自私议程的风险。鉴于可持续性概念在地球危机时期的局限性,我通过揭示知识生产中的多元性和深思熟虑的论点,探讨了人类世旅游研究教育学的可能性。社会科学家需要在危机时期解决伦理问题。同时,人类世凸显了我们对地球的依恋,人类的责任和社会行动迫在眉睫。

ABSTRACT Ecotourism is viewed as a suitable context for disseminating knowledge about nature and promoting environmental values among tourists. However, few studies have drawn attention to the educational impact of ecotourism on young children. Moreover, environmental education in ecotourism tends to be framed by anthropocentric premises in which nature is viewed as detached from human domains and dependent on human protection. Considering this gap, this study aims to explore how play in ecotourism sites supports children to learn not only “about”, but also “with” nature. To that end, we draw upon the theoretical concept of play-based learning and focus on ecotourism activities in Queensland, Australia. The empirical data consist of semi-structured interviews with professionals in the fields of ecotourism, conservation and education. The study contributes to the field of ecotourism and the Anthropocene discussion by stressing the role of early childhood education in promoting a sound relationship between nature and humanity.
摘要:生态旅游被视为在游客中传播自然知识和促进环境价值的合适环境。然而,很少有研究关注生态旅游对幼儿的教育影响。此外,生态旅游中的环境教育往往是以人类为中心的前提,在这种前提下,自然被视为脱离人类领域,依赖于人类的保护。考虑到这一差距,本研究旨在探索在生态旅游景点玩耍如何支持儿童不仅“了解”自然,而且“了解”大自然。为此,我们借鉴了基于游戏的学习的理论概念,并将重点放在澳大利亚昆士兰的生态旅游活动上。实证数据包括对生态旅游、保护和教育领域专业人员的半结构化访谈。该研究通过强调幼儿教育在促进自然与人类之间的良好关系方面的作用,为生态旅游领域和人类世讨论做出了贡献。

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to present and explore a sustainable tourism education model that employed Fair-Trade learning principles and experiential learning philosophies. In collaboration with universities in Mexico and the United States, the model employed an international tourism curriculum that explored issues concerning the environmental, economic, and cultural impacts of global tourism. Field experiences challenged students to think critically about tourism issues from various perspectives in order to gain a holistic understanding of the multidimensional issues. Students met with farmers, fisherman, hospitality providers, tourism outfitters, business owners, government officials, regional non-profits, and local citizens to gain a broader perspective. The summary observation of this paper found the model to be successful in promoting student learning and effective in building bridges across nations through the development of strategic partnerships. The lessons learned involved the importance of administrative support, the significance of faculty engagement, and the importance of building relationships.
摘要本文旨在提出并探索一种采用公平贸易学习原则和体验式学习理念的可持续旅游教育模式。该模式与墨西哥和美国的大学合作,采用国际旅游课程,探讨有关全球旅游的环境、经济和文化影响的问题。实地体验挑战学生从不同角度批判性地思考旅游问题,以获得对多维问题的整体理解。学生们与农民、渔民、酒店供应商、旅游装备商、企业主、政府官员、地区非营利组织和当地公民会面,以获得更广阔的视野。本文的总结观察发现,该模式在促进学生学习和通过发展战略伙伴关系架起跨国家桥梁方面是成功的。学到的教训包括行政支持的重要性,教师参与的重要性,以及建立关系的重要性。
