Sustainable tourism is the concept of visiting a place as a tourist and trying to make only a positive impact on the environment, society and economy. Tourism can involve primary transportation to the general location, local transportation, accommodations, entertainment, recreation, nourishment and shopping. It can be related to travel for leisure, business and what is called VFR (visiting friends and relatives). There is now broad consensus that tourism development should be sustainable; however, the question of how to achieve this remains an object of debate.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Learning outcome
• Environment is facing problems because of increasing tourism which is an instrument of
economic and social development. After reading this Unit you will be able to analyse
the:
• environmental degradation caused by tourism related activities,
• impact of ecotourism on environment, and
• ways of handling the situation in an effective way.
3. Introduction
More than any other field of activity, tourism depends on
environment. Consequently, the environmental issues,
among which destruction of biodiversity, pollution, global
warming, waste increase, natural resources depletion, affect
tourism as much as other global issues, like the economic
crisis or the terrorism. We believe that the responsibility of
lowering the impact of tourism over the environment belongs
equally to all the participants in tourist activities.
It is ironic really, that tourism often destroys the very things that it
relies on!
Many of the negative environmental impacts that result from
tourism are linked with the construction of general infrastructure
such as roads and airports, and of tourism facilities, including
resorts, hotels, restaurants, shops, golf courses and marinas.
4. Ecotourism
According to The International
Ecotourism Society (TIES),
ecotourism can be defined as
“responsible travel to natural
areas that conserve the
environment, sustains the well-
being of the local people, and
involves interpretation and
education”. Such traveling can be
created thanks to an international
network of individuals,
institutions, and the tourism
industry where tourists and tourism
professionals are educated on
ecological issues.

6. IMPACT OF
TOURISM ON
ENVIRONMENT
• Tourists have many purposes for travelling
which are served by a great variety of
destinations. Each type of tourism
destination is characterized by patterns of
environmental sensitivity, such as: .
• coastal areas including beaches,
• marine areas and wetlands,
• mountain and wilderness areas,
• Inland rural areas, urban areas, and
• a small islands.
7. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
To ensure responsible growth of tourism without causing irreversible damage
to the natural environment, activities relating to tourism should take care of
the following:
• promotion of tourism based on careful assessment of the carrying capacity
and support facilities such as transport, fuel, water and sanitation,
• development of tourism in harmony with the environmental conditions and
without affecting the lifestyles of local people, and
• restriction on indiscriminate growth -of tourism and strict regulation of the
tourist activities in sensitive areas such as hill slopes, islands, coastal
stretches, National Parks and Sanctuaries.
Tourists, because of their travel experiences as well as their affluence and
influence, are an appropriate group of target in an effort to:
• increase awareness,
• enlist support for environmental measures,
• alter personal behaviors, and
• advocate for responsible development
8. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Although not everything depends on tourism,
tourism depends on almost everything.
• A balance must be found between limits and usage
continuous changing, monitoring and planning
can be managed. This requires thinking long-term
and realizing that change is often cumulative,
irreversible.
• Economic, social and environmental aspects of
development must include the interests of all
indigenous people, local communities, visitors,
government.
9. To sum up
Environmental parameters are often threatened due to increase in
the nature-based tourism, as this kind of tourism is very close to
environment. Development of tourism is promoted by government
to gain economic profits, which will result in the enhancement of
tourism industry. Hence, we find an inter-relationship between
environment and tourism affecting the parameters of each other. But
one cannot deny the serious implications of tourism on environment,
if developed in an unplanned and uncontrollable way. The
development of tourism has innumerable impact on environment.
Often tourists and tourism promoters are potentially destructive to
the local environment, due to a lack of awareness of local conditions,
both social and natural. Also inappropriate amounts of resources
such as time and money, also encourage environmental degradation.
Thus, there is an urgent need to take necessary steps for preserving
the environment, which includes steps like generating public
awareness and environmental education to the tourists through
media or other means of informative publications.
