PRESENTATION

 

The Master’s 1 course is organised along weekly meetings, or sometimes meets bi-weekly, depending on overall schedule of the program. The sessions last 3 hours each, and the course volume is usually 25 teaching hours in the Fall and 25 others in the Spring. The students are asked to complete advance reading each time prior to the meetings, with reading handed out to them at least one week prior to meeting discussion.

Each reading is organized around a specific topic, which is then introduced, explained and discussed in the meetings. Students are asked to show critical thinking and analysis in order to form a group opinion in view of debating on the topic.

Depending on importance and scope of the Tourism Management topic, some issues discussed can extend over more than one single session. Also, additional documents with the same topic to be discussed (videos) can be played in order to facilitate student understanding of a given Tourism Issue. Likewise, students are asked to think critically and provide perspectives along with matching justifications.
