Called Tourism Lecture Walk, the activity is designed to enhance the knowledge and appreciation of tourism students in the Philippines.
You see, the tourism course in the country is experiencing exciting and at the same time a bit worrying growth. Tourism as a college degree has become a preferred path for many. The number of teachers could hardly cope up with the demand.
I figured that given what I know about a good number of destinations in the country, I could help enhance their learning by bringing out their classroom to the largest map of the Philippines - in Rizal Park. I've done some test groups and the feedback has been very encouraging!
The Rizal Park module will be for Domestic Tourism.
Im still thinking the best place for a lecture walk for Ecotourism. Possible candidates are the pocket gardens of Rizal Park, the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife in Quezon City, or the La Mesa Ecopark. I guess this module will have to wait a bit.
Here are the details of tourism lecture walk for Domestic Tourism:
1. Designed for - tourism students; those with other courses and non-students can also attend
2. Rate - Php300 for students; Php500 for non-students
3. Minimum - 10 people; Maximum - around 40 people (roughly 1 class size)
