Business travel is an important sector of tourism which includes tourists who attend congresses, conferences, exhibitions, incentive travels, events and business corporate travels.
Many countries have realized the significance of this part of tourism development and thus influence on its organization, promotion and realization. Business travel includes meetings, incentive travels, congresses, conventions and exhibitions. Because of that, both domestic and foreign literature more increasingly use the acronym MICE for these types of travel. This part of the tourist market is an extremely important part of business, especially when it comes to the extension of the tourist season, which increases the attractiveness of the tourist destination and the economic effects achieved by the development of this part of the tourist market.
Tourism and Transportation are inextricably linked. As world tourism increases, additional demands will be placed on the transportation sectors.

Recreation is the expenditure of time with an intent to gain some refreshment. It is a break from monotony and a diversion from the daily routine. It is a positive change from the stereotypical lifestyle and involves an active participation in some entertaining activity.

Sex, Gender, Culture, and a Great
Event: The California Gold Rush
ALBERT L. HURTADO
The author is a member of the history department at the
University of Oklahoma. A version of this paper was his
presidential address to the Pacific Coast Branch, American
Historical Association, at its ninety-first annual meeting in
August 1998 in San Diego, California.
I was working on the galleys for my book, Intimate Fron-
tiers: Sex, Gender, and Culture in Early California, when I happened
to hear several historians on National Public Radio. They were
explaining why a new historical organization, The History So-
ciety, was needed. Among other things, they argued that the
proliferation of gender studies in history threatened to trivial-
ize the discipline. We should be thinking about big things, and
we should be seeking the "truth."I I suspect that there are many
historians who believe that sex and gender are trivial subjects.
Sex and gender are merely manifestations of biology that are
common to all humans. What have they to do with the big
things in history? How does knowledge of sex and gender help
us discover some of the truth about the past?
This essay addresses those questions. Surely t ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

10. (1920 - 1940)
With the Great Depression of the 1930s, unemployment increased. One positive outcome of
this event was that the government spent considerable money on job creation programs, many
of which were instrumental in the development of recreation and parks facilities and
programs. Another significant event during this time period was the establishment of the U.S.
Fair Labour Standards Act, which set out the five-day, 40-hour workweek. This piece of
legislation ultimately influenced labour codes in Canada and set the stage for our present
practice of balancing work and non-work time.
Finally, community and provincial government involvement in recreation increased
dramatically between 1920 and 1940. Service clubs became involved in the Playground
Movement, and constructed many neighbourhood playgrounds. The first major involvement
by a provincial government in the area of recreation also occurred with the British Columbia
Ministry of Education establishing classes for recreational and physical education.
12. Post-War Canada
Today’s number one leisure activity (watching television) became a possibility in the early
1950s. It has been suggested that no single event changed the face of leisure and recreation
so dramatically. The 1950s also saw a huge increase in materialism, much of it connected
with recreation pursuits (cars, boats, sports equipment and labour-saving devices).
Another important development during the 1950s involved the increasingly widespread
acceptance of community centers and community schools, which were actually joint
ventures between municipalities and organized community associations. Often, the town
council would build the recreational facility and then turn over its management and
operation to a community group. This model has endured to this day.
15. (1970 – 1985)
Perhaps the most significant event of the 1970s with respect to recreation was the creation of
a national, not-for-profit agency called PARTICIPaction, whose purpose was to encourage
Canadians to become more physically active. The campaign resulted in a much higher
percentage of Canadians becoming committed to a physically active lifestyle (from 5% to
37% in ten years). In 1981, this increased level of interest in physical fitness led to one of the
largest and most comprehensive surveys ever done to assess the fitness of the nation
(Canada Fitness Survey). In 1985, the Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute was
created to conduct research and disseminate information about the lifestyle practices of
Canadians.
