A copy of the assessment rubric that will be used to mark your Essay is provided at the end of this subject guide. Page 10 TUTORIAL ACTIVITIES (35 %) During class Seminar activities occur in the seminars and include an overall class participation mark as well as a mark for your group work and presentation: 1. Class Participation (5%): Students must maintain a satisfactory level of attendance (at least 10 of the 12 seminars) and participation at their seminar to be eligible for final assessment. Satisfactory participation involves students contributing to class discussions, asking questions of their tutor and asking questions of their fellow students during question time at the end of the student in-class presentations. It is also expected that students attend all of the scheduled seminars. A roll will be taken at each seminar and your attendance will be used to calculate part of your mark for participation. This is on the understanding that regular physical presence at class greatly assists in the quality and frequency of participation. A significant element of your participation will be based on the activities engaged in during the seminars. This will be explained more fully by your tutor in the first seminar. Thus, the seminar contribution grade requires that you ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE in seminar discussions. THIS GRADE MUST BE EARNED WHICH MEANS YOU MUST SPEAK UP IN CLASS! 2. Learning and Assessment Activities (20%): In week 4 in the tutorials students will be participation in an Exhibition on their selected destinations for their presentations. Refer to the tutorial guide for information on what you need to include. This will be worth 5%. You will be required to complete a survey on three other destinations. In week 8 in the tutorials there will be a quiz which will be worth 15%. The objective of the quiz is to encourage students to keep up to date with the topics and be able to demonstrate your understanding. 3. Presentation (Group Work) (15%): In this task each group should imagine that they have been hired by the Destination Marketing Organisation of your region and you have been asked to present a critical overview of the trends, opportunities and challenges currently affecting your allocated region. You should imagine that you are delivering this presentation to a group of potential investors who want to hear about the great aspects of the region but what to hear a realistic reflection on the challenges facing the area. Each group in the room will be assessing your presentation, and will provide feedback to you. In the presentation you are expected to provide the following:   An overview of the destination (Location, Size, Population);   Key destination market trends (a profile of incoming tourists, their purpose of visit, their spending patterns, etc). Note: graphs and tables should be included to support this information; Page 11   Key tourism attractions (3 natural and 3 man-made) and two upcoming events. Explain why are they unique to this destination;   A reflection on the current tourism marketing promotion. You are expected to show a 1-2 minute short video clip on the region and then reflect on it (The video should be one created by your allocated region’s Destination Marketing Organisation).   An overview and analysis of the current opportunities for tourism growth and the economic, social cultural and environmental tourism challenges the destination is facing   Recommendations on how the industry and government is responding to these issues. More information on the presentation:   The task will be completed in teams of 3-4 students. Students cannot complete this project by themselves, as this is a team exercise.   Each team should meet at least twice as a group during the semester to investigate their destination and, to create and practice their PowerPoint presentation.   Group presentation dates will be allocated during the second seminar. Presentations will be delivered during the Seminars in either Week 5, 6, 7, 8 or 11.   Each group should speak for a total of 15 minutes.   Members of the group should work together to prepare and then give the presentation.   Each student in the group is expected to speak.   Each slide in the presentation should have no more than four (4) short ‘dot points’ of text.   Students should avoid simply reading out the notes – aim to engage the audience. So create only MINIMAL notes to refer to during the presentation.   Dress in appropriate costume relevant to your destination or professional attire   Engage with the audience (you can be creative with how you do this e.g., teach them some key language skills, a traditional dance. Give them a taste of what they would experience at the destination)   Students should bring in a USB to show their slides via the data projector onto the screen in the seminar room. You must bring a hard copy of your presentation slides and submit it to your tutor in class on the day of your presentation. A copy of the assessment sheet that will be used to grade the Presentation is provided at the end of this Subject Guide. This is presented in the tutorials and includes an overall class participation mark as well as a mark for your group work and presentation.

Please refer to policies on our website: www.latrobemelbourne.edu.au/policies Academic Misconduct Plagiarism and collusion are academic offences. They are forms of cheating and severe penalties are associated with them. If a student is caught plagiarising they may be failed in that piece of assessment. Plagiarism occurs when a student passes off as their own another student’s work, or copies without acknowledgment of its authorship, the work of any other person. Collusion occurs when a student obtains the agreement of another person for a fraudulent purpose with the intent of obtaining an advantage in submitting an assignment or other work. Whenever you refer to another person’s research or ideas (whether directly quoting or by paraphrasing them) you MUST acknowledge the source. Also, copying paragraphs from web pages and presenting them as your own work is plagiarism. If you download and copy paragraphs from a web page, you must identify the source. La Trobe Melbourne will provide plagiarism detection software to assist both staff and students with the identification of instances where work intended for submission or actually submitted is inappropriately copied from another source either in whole or in part. Refer to La Trobe University’s website for information on plagiarism and acknowledging source material: http://www.latrobe.edu.au/students/academic-integrity Page 14 Examination Misconduct This may take various forms, for example:   Bringing into an examination forbidden material (notes) or gaining access to such material during an examination (e.g. by communication via mobile phone with another person, planting material in a toilet, speaking or using hand gestures to communicate with others, etc).   Copying from an adjacent student in a formal examination.   Gaining knowledge of or revealing content of an examination in a circumstance in which a student has taken the examination earlier or later than the scheduled time. Any form of misconduct in an exam will be treated as a serious offence and students will face severe penalties. Where the intent of the student is to cheat they will receive zero marks for their exam. Should an examination invigilator suspect a student of engaging in examination misconduct, they shall normally allow the student to complete the examination. They will complete an incident report, attach any relevant evidence, and submit it to the Academic Director within 72 hours of the date of the exam. The Academic Director will notify the student of the alleged misconduct in writing via email and give the student an opportunity to submit their case. The student shall then be notified of the outcome in writing via email. Please note, some exams are open book. If you see somebody using notes, this is not an invitation for you to also take out notes. If an exam is an open book exam, it will be clearly stated on the front page. Assignment Submission Assignments must be submitted by the due date. Students must complete the Assignment Cover Sheet available from the portal and attach it to their assignment. Check with your teacher for submission guidelines. Assignments may be asked to be submitted via the portal or handed to your teacher in class. Assignments are not accepted at reception. Students must keep a copy of each assignment submitted and must be able to produce the copy in the unlikely event that the original assignment is misplaced. Students must maintain backup copies of all their assignment work. Electronic loss of data is possible, but is not a satisfactory excuse for an extension of a submission date. Late Submission Extension for medical reasons: If your work is late for medical reasons, you will need a medical certificate to cover you from the time the assignment was due until the time it is submitted. The medical certificate must accompany an application for special consideration. An extension of assignment submission for circumstances in the time leading up to the due date must be applied for in writing to your teacher at least 48 hours prior to the due date. Page 15 Penalties for late submission: Assignments received late and without prior approval will be penalised. A penalty of 5% of the available marks will be deducted every working day the assignment is late. Assignments received after five working days, and without an approved extension, will receive 0% Class Attendance Attendance is an important element of a student’s success in their studies and it is strongly recommended that attendance is maintained in all classes. All work covered in class is examinable. Poor attendance can lead to failure to progress academically. Failing to progress may result in exclusion from study, and for international students, this may lead to cancellation of a student visa. Attendance will be recorded in all sessions and Foundation Studies students need to be aware that if they fail to meet satisfactory attendance requirements, as set out by DIBP, they may be breaching their visa requirements. For any given trimester, the expected attendance requirement is that all domestic and international students attend a minimum of 80 per cent of classes over the trimester. Students are expected to attend the full duration of each class. However, students will be marked as present for a late arrival within the first hour of each scheduled class. Thereafter, students will be marked as absent.

By listening carefully to the on-line podcasts delivered by the lecturer and attending the lectures, students become acquainted with the general principles of the subject. They also learn the emphasis placed on particular parts of the prescribed reading. Without listening to the on-line podcasts you will not learn fully how the subject is structured. The subject is not the same as any textbook. It is unique in certain respects.   The ‘seminar level’. A body of knowledge gained via the on-line podcasts and associated vidoes at the lecture level is insufficient to pass the subject. Students need to be able to apply that knowledge. By participating in seminars, students practise their techniques and have the opportunity to engage and discuss with their fellow students.   The ‘assignment level’. By completing the various on-line exercises, the essay and delivering the presentation, students become familiar with the application of theory in the tourism, hospitality and events sectors. They will then be confident to sit the final examination. Keep up with your Reading and Revision! In this subject is it critical that you keep up to date with your reading and revision of weekly material. Each topic builds upon previous ones, so that if you fall behind, it can be very time consuming to catch up. Please do not underestimate the content of this subject. Read Wisely and Widely Please note that the readings suggested in this guide are minimum requirements. The on-line podcasts will direct you to the main topic areas that you will need to address. If the text does not provide sufficient information on a particular topic, you are expected to access other texts. There are MANY texts on tourism, hospitality and events in the library, so it is often a matter of finding one that you prefer. Allow sufficient time for group work and study It is expected that you will spend on average 10-12 hours per week during semester attending class, completing readings, assignments and seminar sessions associated with this subject. Please remember that your success in this subject requires a two-way responsibility. It is the job of the Subject Coordinator and Tutor to assist you in your studies. It is your job to undertake the required academic work, attend class, submit assessment and ask for help. Page 19 The following Assessment Rubric will be used by tutors when assessing your essay; it demonstrates the factors or qualities they will look for to determine the levels of understanding and performance being demonstrated, and to differentiate between the various grades.
