Required study cases available at canvas, or for purchased at Cases studies are assigned one per week starting on week 3. Most of them are available on the course canvas page however a few will need to be purchased from Harvard Business Publishing Required readings Additional readings as assigned on a weekly basis will be available on the course canvas page (see Outline of Topics). Course Description This course is designed to provide an understanding of the concepts of sustainable development and ecotourism and their relationship. Theory, practice, and issues in sustainable development will be addressed. Theory, practice, history, terminology, and issues on ecotourism planning and management will be examined. Additionally, a basic survey of ecotourism components: motives and behaviors of tourists, natural resources as attractions and destinations, social and resource responsibility and establishing policies and principles for sustainability will be discussed. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to: 1. Understand the goals of sustainable development in terms of inclusive human well-being and their relationship to tourism. 2. Define ecotourism and recognize how it relates to generic tourism. 1
2 3. Analyze the sustainable development of natural resource attractions and the demand for recreation and tourism opportunities. 4. Identify the social and ecological impacts of ecotourism. 5. Understand the codes of conduct, eco-labeling/certification processes in ecotourism 6. Describe basic planning and management guidelines for ecotourism development. Class Policies 1. Requirements for class attendance and make-up exams, assignments, and other work in this course are consistent with university policies that can be found at: 2. Assignments must be typed and should follow the American Psychological Association format. Please see 3. Late assignments will not be accepted. 4. Attendance will be taken throughout the semester. If a student misses two or more class periods, their respective grade will drop one (1) letter. If three (3) or more misses are recorded, then the grade will be an automatic E. 5. Students are required to stay the entire duration of the class period and be on time. 6. All mobile devices should be turned off and kept away during the class period. 7. If a student has a need for special test taking or note-taking accommodations due to a disability, it is their responsibility to let the instructor know as soon as possible. Course Requirements This seminar-oriented class will be based upon student participation & discussion, case analysis, guest speakers, and other supplementary materials. Readings will be assigned throughout the semester, and it is important to keep up with the assigned readings to enhance your understanding of the course content. Additionally, based on the readings, each student is required to formulate three or more questions to be used for discussion. The questions must be typed and submitted to the instructor at the end of the class period. Each student is expected to share in discussion and express ideas and opinions relevant to the topic during the course. Participation in class is highly encouraged to facilitate ideas and concepts as numerous group and individual case study analysis, presentations and research papers will be used. The class participation grade is based on responses, ideas and informed opinions expressed by the student in class. Assignments Assignments (in /out-of-class) will be given during the semester. Exams will not be administered. 1. Discussion Leaders For each class period, there will be discussion leaders (two students) who will be responsible for leading the class discussion on assigned readings. Based on the week s topic, the discussion leaders will prepare a brief analysis/synopsis and stimulate class discussion. The discussion leaders may elect to lay more emphasis on certain assigned readings; however, need to integrate all the readings. The analysis should draw attention to the importance of the topic, the conceptual/theoretical orientation of the article/s, and ideas or concepts that seem to be controversial and subsequently fosters discussion. It is required for the weekly leaders to meet with the instructor to discuss the readings prior to the day of the class. The document should follow APA guidelines and be about 2pgs long plus references. 2. Country Specific or Site Visit Presentations Each student will be responsible for either presenting a country specific (option 1) or a site visit (option 2) case study in class. 2
3 Country Specific Presentations (Option 1) In Honey s (2008) book (chapters 4-9), six country specific cases are outlined (Galapagos, Costa Rica, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Kenya, South Africa), which can be used and supplemented by other sources. However, for each country, an analysis based on a case study should also be included. Additional countries may be assigned based on students choice. Site Visit Presentations (Option 2) Students will have the option of self-selection and site visit to an ecotourism destination. Identify information about the destination and/or attraction; the role the service provider plays in the tourism industry, and the types and number of tourists it serves. Include other information that may be pertinent to the course. Since true domestic ecotourism sites in the region are somewhat hard to find, criteria will not be strictly applied. Preference is to target private enterprise based attractions, however, government operated sites would be acceptable based on clear rationale. The site needs to be approved by the instructor. The proposed site does not have to be based in Florida; however, a site visit is required. For either option, each designated presenter will give a 20-minute presentation (handouts would be useful for the class to follow. Then, the presenter will lead an interactive dialogue with the class about the major points, pros, cons, weaknesses, and conclusions. Based on the research and respective presentation, students are required to write a paper (about 10 pages, double-spaced). Overall, students will be graded by the quality and thoroughness of the article(s) summary, use of additional sources, presentation, quality of group discussion and the respective paper. We will have three presentations per class starting on week Case Analysis Cases will be analyzed in teams (up to 3 members) and will be responsible for the following: Analyze one case study and deliver oral presentations and written analysis which is to submitted on the day of the presentation. Written analysis is limited to 6 double-spaced typewritten pages, excluding appendices which are limited to 4 pages. An update of the case since it was written. New information can be accessed through various mediums, such as the internet and other publication outlets. Oral presentation is limited to 20 minutes. All team members must participate in the presentation. Students will be graded by the quality and thoroughness of the article(s) summary, use of additional sources, the quality of discussion and the respective paper. More details about the case analysis will be communicated in class. 4. Final Research Paper (Due: April 23rd) Each student is required to submit a research paper based on an in-depth examination of an ecotourism subject. The topic may be based on one of the major topics covered in class. However, each student is required to get prior approval of the topic from the instructor by submitting an outline (1-2 pages) for the proposed paper. There is a final deadline (March 12 th ) with respect to topic approval but an early start is highly recommended. Each student is expected to make a 20-minute presentation of their paper and respond to questions for 5 minutes during the last two class periods. Also, if needed, presentations may be also scheduled during the formal exam period. As a guideline, graduate students are expected to complete a minimum of 18 pages (excludes title page and references) with references from journal articles. Paper must be typed (1 inch margins), double-spaced pages in length and should at least include the following sections: 3
