Five proposals were 3elected to be developed into pilot productions. The creator of the idea for the series metwith a staff of television production pei sonnel aryl Humanities experts to produce thepilot program. The programs were then viewed byproducers, directors, and ITV personnel at the National Association of Educational Broadcasters national convention, atypical high school class, and 25 high school teachers. Scripts and verbatim transcriptionsof conferences and discussions document the evolution of the original idea intothe final production. The comments of ITV experts, high school students and teachers serve as an evaluation for each program.A production chronology is given for each show.

Each of the five sub-sections is composed of transcribed materials made duringconferences and discussions that resulted in the pilot presentation as taped. Hopefully, this report will be of interest to all those involved inproducing instructional materials for television in the classroom; it chronicles pit-falls aswell as successes. For the first four pilots in this report, the Project Staff recommendsthat the reader view the pilot before reading the report.In the case of "Man's Ability To Search And Reason," it would be preferable first to read the report,then to view the pilot classroom observation. ; PANEL PANELISTS SELECTED PROPOSALSALTERNATE PROPOSALS NEW YORK CITYAaron Fink Rick Krepela, Harry Liebowitz, James Mac Allen free-lance writer, Senior Producer/Director, James Mac Andrew Atlanta, Georgia.

    Recommendation Systems for Tourism Based on Social Networks: a Survey

    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Recommendation Systems for Tourism Based on Social Networks: A Survey Alan Menk · Laura Sebastia · Rebeca Ferreira Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract Nowadays, recommender systems are present in many daily activities such as online shop- ping, browsing social networks, etc. Given the rising demand for reinvigoration of the tourist industry through information technology, recommenders have been included into tourism websites such as Ex- pedia, Booking or Tripadvisor, among others. Furthermore, the amount of scientific papers related to recommender systems for tourism is on solid and continuous growth since 2004. Much of this growth is due to social networks that, besides to offer researchers the possibility of using a great mass of available and constantly updated data, they also enable the recommendation systems to become more personalised, effective and natural. This paper reviews and analyses many research publications fo- cusing on tourism recommender systems that use social networks in their projects. We detail their main characteristics, like which social networks are exploited, which data is extracted, the applied rec- ommendation techniques, the methods of evaluation, etc. Through a comprehensive literature review, we aim to collaborate with the future recommender systems, by giving some clear classifications and descriptions of the current tourism recommender systems. Keywords Recommendation systems · Tourism · Social Media · Social Networks 1 Introduction The expansion of the use of Social Networks (SNs) has become clear when looking at the increase in the number of users and the data volume in these networks. In 2016, 79% of U.S. adults that accessed the internet used the SN Facebook (Greenwood et al, 2016).

At the completion of this course students should be able to: 1. Discuss the impact of tourism on the global economy and other peripheral areas (e.g. developing nations). 2. Analyze significant global tourism issues and demonstrate an awareness of how these issues are perceived and dealt with in different cultural and historical traditions. 3. Describe the ways in which tourism contributes to appreciation of cultural heritage and the international foundations of American society. 4. Discuss the social impacts of global tourism, including acculturation, religious tolerance, and political awareness. 5. Discuss the role of international tourism in promoting world peace. 6. Design an international travel itinerary that would allow a tourist to learn about another country. 7. Visit other countries with an improved sense of host/guest relations and with greater appreciation for the opportunities to expand learning about the world cultures. COURSE OVERVIEW The course looks at global tourism from different aspects: that of the tourist, that of the tourism service providers, that of the government agencies that promote and regulate it, that of groups that promote tourism, that of researchers and observers, and that of others.
