Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite well-established links between travel, learning and education in tourism studies, there is scant discussion around the ways in which “trouble” emerges and unfolds in experience-based and field course-learning scenarios. This exploratory research aims to understand this neglected aspect of tourism education, drawing attention to its pedagogical value and to debate the purpose of trouble within the field. Specifically, we examine written and drawn memories of trouble encountered by tourism educators who lead and organise field courses. Analysis of findings reveal that unintended instances can become purposeful for both students and educators. We also highlight some of the strategies used by educators to capitalise on trouble, supporting reflection, adopting different personas, and in some cases intentionally creating “trouble”. This paper encourages educators to stay with, or more specifically to sway towards trouble, imparting insights around how to create purpose from trouble thereby inspiring educators to facilitate more critically oriented tourism field courses.

在野外旅游课程中培养深度学习：在“麻烦”中寻找目的

摘要尽管在旅游研究中，旅行、学习和教育之间有着牢固的联系，但关于“麻烦”在基于经验和实地课程的学习场景中出现和展开的方式，却很少有讨论。这项探索性研究旨在了解旅游教育中这一被忽视的方面，引起人们对其教学价值的关注，并对该领域内麻烦的目的进行辩论。具体来说，我们研究了领导和组织实地课程的旅游教育工作者所遇到的麻烦的书面和绘画记忆。对研究结果的分析表明，对于学生和教育工作者来说，意外的事件都可能成为有目的的。我们还强调了教育工作者利用麻烦、支持反思、采用不同的人物角色，以及在某些情况下故意制造“麻烦”的一些策略。这篇论文鼓励教育工作者与麻烦保持联系，或者更具体地说，与麻烦摇摆，传授如何从麻烦中创造目标的见解，从而激励教育工作者促进更具批判性的旅游领域课程。
