【授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか) / Outline and objectives】
The purpose of this course is to provide students with an introduction to the field of tourism. You will gain an overview of the scale, scope and organization of the tourism sector and consider both the positive and negative impacts of tourism on destinations. Through a range of international case studies, we will learn about the development of destinations' natural, built and cultural resources and how these can be managed and enjoyed sustainably. Students will engage in additional learning opportunities such as in-class discussions and a group project, focusing on tourism-related issues at a particular destination. This includes consideration of how tourism may recover from the coronavirus pandemic in 2023 and beyond. As an introductory 100-level class, students will encounter some of the fundamental issues and theories relating to the study of tourism.

【到達目標 / Goal】
At the completion of this course, students should be able to:
1. Describe the structure and organisation of the tourism sector and the interrelationships between the various stakeholders (governments, local communities, companies, NGOs, etc.)
2. Identify processes to enable the sustainable development of a destination’s natural, built and cultural resources
3. Identify factors facilitating the growth of travel and tourism at the global, national and local level
4. Discuss changes in consumer behaviour and the implications for tourism managers
5. Describe the impact of technology, particularly social media, on both tourism organizations and tourists
