The document discusses tourism in regions affected by natural disasters. It notes that while tourism is an important economic driver, natural disasters can negatively impact tourism activities. Some key points made include:
- Many disaster-prone regions rely heavily on tourism income to aid recovery efforts after disasters strike.
- However, increased tourism has also led to rises in issues like human trafficking, child prostitution, and disease transmission in some areas.
- Strategies are needed to encourage tourism in disaster-prone areas in a responsible way that protects local communities and the environment, while still providing economic benefits.

A Study on the Effectiveness of Computer Games in Teaching and LearningIJASCSE
Games, especially computer games are becoming one of the tools of education. Nowadays, the usage of computer games as an educational tool has become a worldwide trend. An early assumption suggests that since the appeal of computer games can engage interest and motivation, thus it is a wise step to use computer games for the purpose of educating. This is because students often get bored with the learning process; therefore we need to find creative ways to teach them. Instead of the usual, dull lesson in class, educators are trying out new ways to attract the interest of students to focus the lessons and thus increase their understanding, with one of it using computer games. A lot of papers supported the idea of computer games being effective as an aid for students. Educators alike also agreed that it is one of the ways to gain students interest in their lessons. Before coming to the ultimate conclusion that computer games are a good choice, first of all we need to study carefully the effectiveness of using computer games as an educational medium. This paper aims to study the effectiveness of computer games in learning among students. Issues on the integration of computer games in formal education are and the current status of educational gaming in learning were reviewed in this paper. We focused on higher learning context which is for university students.

Drawing from the materials in this module, you will administer the Tribal Leadership survey to a member of an organization to which you have access.
After you have determined the organization’s present stage, you will interview the organizational member to glean more detail concerning the culture of his or her organization.
This can be any type of organization (some examples include a business, church, sports team, or volunteer organization). The person should be willing to participate in an interview about his or her organization’s culture. You may conduct the interview in person, via phone, or via email.
· Prior to the interview, ask the interviewee to respond to the Tribal Leadership Survey questions (you will need to provide your name and email address to receive the survey results). Access the survey at http://www.culturesync.net/toolbox/culturemeter-survey/. (Note the results of the Tribal Leadership survey, specifically the tribal stage of the interviewee’s organization).
· Interview your subject (interviewee) to discover information regarding his/her organization’s culture by asking the following questions:
· Tell me about the relationship of your organization’s people to the mission, vision, and values of the organization.
· Are the people in your organization used to taking risks (innovation) or is organizational stability more important (the status quo)?
· Are the people in your organization more focused on the details of their work (the means) or toward the outcomes (the end results)?
· Would you say that your organization’s leadership is more process-oriented or people-oriented?
· Does your organization focus more on recognizing the accomplishments of individual members or the accomplishments of teams?
· Do people tend to be easygoing and cooperative, or are they aggressive and highly competitive?

The impact of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami on coastal tourism communities highlights the
vulnerability of tourism destinations to external shocks. Based on fieldwork conducted in Thailand
in the wake of this disaster, this paper addresses one fundamental question: what sociopolitical and
environmental conditions contributed to the vulnerability of the affected tourism community of
Khao Lak in the southern Phang Nga Province. We argue that an understanding of the root causes
of destination vulnerability is vital not only for the successful implementation of regional recovery
plans, but also for building long-term resilience against future shocks. In the absence of an appro-
priate tourism vulnerability framework, this paper analyzes Khao Lak’s vulnerability through an
innovative theoretical framework comprised of the sustainability vulnerability framework, rela-
tional scale and place. The findings reveal that Khao Lak’s vulnerability is shaped by 13 interlinked
factors. These are the complex outcomes of social norms and developmental and dynamic gover-
nance processes driven by the competing agendas and scaled actions of key government and industry
stakeholders. The identification and understanding of the drivers of Khao Lak’s vulnerability and a
strong vulnerability framework have significant implications for the wider tourism community. First,
the empirical findings provide tourism communities with a blueprint for understanding the foun-
dations of their vulnerability to external shocks. Second, the tourism vulnerability framework
presented here provides destination communities and government stakeholders with an analytical
tool through which to analyze their unique sociopolitical conditions. Together, these empirical and
theoretical contributions bring us closer to securing sustainable livelihood futures for tourism
dependent communities.

Economic Fluctuation and Its Effects on Tourism in Kish Island, Iranhamed rouzrokh
When economic recession accompany by international sanctions, market will experience the worst scenario in
three layers: political environment, fiscal, and management issues that Iran experienced from the second quarter
of 2012, due to international sanction. A field survey was applied to evaluate two target groups; shop owners and
tourists’ reactions against the economic fluctuation effects in Kish Island. Principal component analysis was
considered to analyze the data that obtained from field survey. The result shows that although the tourist chose
economizing strategies, however shop owners faced Paradoxical sphere, imbalance economy, none transparency,
high risk and uncertainty space. Shop owners try to adjust themselves through the variety of strategies based on

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

Tourism in natural disaster affected regions sample essay
1. Tourism in Natural Disaster Affected Regions
Sample Essay
In most nations, tourism is an important part of the economy.
According to the World Tourism Organization (WTO), international
travels are bound to increase from 2004 to 2020. Nevertheless, natural
disasters affect tourism activities that include the Boxing Day events of
2004 (Zhang, 2005) and the recent Cyclone Nargis devastation in
Burma. Tourists are vulnerable to various natural disasters because
they are attracted to exotic regions where their risk is high including
the avalanches and hurricanes (Terry and Goff, 2012).
As such, tourism activities have a risky nature and the affected areas
have led to a debate that attempts to determine whether tourism
activities ought to be encouraged in such places. Tourism activities in
the regions that are affected by natural disasters are supported by this
essay as long as the application of appropriate precautions is done to
avert danger that may affect human life as well as to ensure that all
affected regions benefit from these activities.
Most regions that natural disasters affect depend on income that
comes from tourism activities in financing their recovery efforts.
Actually, reports by Tourism Concern (2005) indicate that relief efforts
of the tourist agencies and individual tourists have benefited the
nations that tsunamis have affected in the past. Following the
occurrence of such disasters, disaster concepts in the tourism industry
have also been developed. These facilitate the efforts that are aimed at
increasing comprehension of the natural disasters. The International
Ecotourism Society (2013) indicates that most photographers were
tourists and images that were used in analyzing disasters came from
tourists.
According to Hannum, Park and Butler (2010), tourism ought to
continue since the new leisure consumers’ generation will emerge
2. because the South East Asia’s working population is bound to more
than triple by 2050. Another factor that contributes to optimism
regarding the increase in the tourism activities is economic
development that has not been precedent. Most residents of the areas
that have faced destructive effects that natural disasters pose are
enduring poverty and economic hardships. Some tourists take
advantage of this to lure such residents into prostitution of underage
individuals. Rigg, Grundy-Warr, Law and Tan-Mullins (2008, pp. 137-
154) note that authorities of the countries that the natural disasters
affect find improving tourism in the areas that are prone to such
disasters beneficial because it enables the local people to rebuild lives
after the disasters.
According to Tarlow (2005), the visits of tourists can be transformed to
life-changing experiences by improving the lives of local people who are
facing the effects of the disasters. Although disease levels results from
increased prostitution which indicates social morals’ and ethics’
erosion, most sex workers get money that they use to support families.
Bond and Falk (2013) for instance note that recruitment of sex workers
occur among rural families. Their parents are paid lump sum amounts
that they use to ensure family subsistence with their meager earnings.
The negative effect of this is that this practice has led to increased
prostitution and sex tourism. There has been intensification of this
practice to a level where children of countries that have high natural
disasters incidences including Bangladesh, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and
Thailand have become more vulnerable to dealers and tourists who
need cheap sex trade and labor. Failure by the media to report
increasing women and children vulnerability to domestic and
international trafficking as well as sex trade worsened the situation.
Morse (2005) contends that most reports by the media comprised of a
generalized condemnation of sex tourism and/or child trafficking in
areas affected by natural disasters. These reports did not provide
3. specific information regarding the exact dynamics of child prostitution
and trafficking in these areas.
In the areas that natural disasters occur, tourism activities lead to
spreading of HIV/AIDS. Sex tourism can make families that earn low
income financially stable. However, the formed contract through
payments that are made to a family binds a sex worker to a job and the
obligation that the worker has for the family goes beyond negative
feelings towards their job. The process of recovering from a natural
disaster has also been complicated by tourism in some cases (The
International Ecotourism Society, 2013). For example, hastening
tourism development’s investment following the tsunami that hit the
Indian Ocean in 2004 hampered smooth transition of the local people
to normal life because they were not prepared (Tourism Concern,
2005).
Tourism ought to be encouraged within the regions that natural
disasters affect as long as appropriate precautions are taken to
minimize property destruction as well as to avert threat that human life
faces. The governments of most regions that are prone to disasters are
unable to deal with the adverse effects that tourism faces from these
disasters due to pressure from international financiers as well as
unbalanced economic development pace which forces them to attract
foreign investors regardless of the cost. Countries that face natural
disasters are affected the most because these natural forces are
destructive in nature and this hampers development initiatives.
Complicity of legal business owners such as brothel owners and
hoteliers is taken advantage of by tourists who use their businesses to
facilitate sex trade activities.
There are also situations where this vice has been supported by the
governments in the past. For instance, according to Hechler (1995),
before preventive policies were adopted, 1987 was the tourism year
that the Thailand’s Tourism Authority named using the slogan, “The
one fruit of Thailand more delicious than durian-its young women.”
4. Durian is a fruit that is native to Thailand. Due to such traditions, it is
difficult for the strategies adopted currently to eliminate sex tourism.
Structures of governance in places that are prone to natural disasters
ought to have necessary measures in place in order to deal with
increased prostitution. Public education that teaches the dangers that
sexual malpractices have as well as the alternative ways of using
tourism for economic gains can be used to curb this prostitution.
Children registration that provides the list of the children who no longer
live with families can be used in curbing child trafficking (CNN, 2005;
UNICEF, 2005). Child trafficking incidences that result from tourism can
also be decreased through the provision of media reports about them
to create awareness regarding these inhumane acts at international
forums.
Public attention’s effectiveness can internationally be proven through
the adoption of preventive actions by Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and
India governments. This was after they were accused by the State’s
Trafficking in Persons Report by the U.S department in 2004 of failing to
comply with standards of Trafficking Victims Act (TVPA), 2002.
According to Morse (2005), the target of this Act is to raise awareness
about child trafficking globally by reducing relations with nations that
do not take actions that are aimed at eliminating this challenge.
Affected regions ought to apply sufficient technologies that can detect
natural disasters as well as minimize the destructive effects of such
disasters.
Conclusion
It is important to encourage tourism in nations that are prone to
natural disasters. According to this discussion, it is apparent that
tourism activities have benefits that supersede their negative ones.
Tourism plays a vital role in the rehabilitation and restoration of
normalcy in the areas that are prone to disasters. My opinion is that it
is important to encourage tourism in the disaster prone areas that
5. include South East Asia although more precautions ought to be taken in
order to protect the local people and tourists from the effects of these
disasters which are naturally destructive. Human rights should be flout
or compromised by their activities.
