Trianasari, Pamela Arumynathan","doi":"10.1504/ijkmth.2022.124066","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1504/ijkmth.2022.124066","url":null,"abstract":": Addressing the lack of empirical studies on the student’s experiences during the on-the-job training (OJT) program, this study explored situations that triggered student’s sense of achievement. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews from 56 students and were analysed using a qualitative approach. The findings suggest four critical ‘yes moments’ that lead to a sense of achievement: 1) being trusted; 2) the ability to accomplish a task; 3) being given a compliment; 4) the ability to solve a problem. The significance of the study lies in its contribution to the existing body of knowledge in tourism and hospitality education in terms of understanding students learning behavior. Also, the study is substantial for its insightful contributions to potentially improve the employability of students and in the long run, meet the supply and demand of labor in the hotel industry. The interpretations of the findings, implications, and directions for future are discussed.","PeriodicalId":122274,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Knowledge Management in Tourism and Hospitality","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128370342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At many fuel stations there is always a queue to get the fuel due to which it may happen that some of the customers may move to competitor's retail outlet where the waiting time in queue is less. Formation of queue causes the increased waiting time for the customers, over-utilisation of the servers and loss of customer good will. Application of queuing theory determines the measure of the performance of the service facility and which in turn helps to design appropriate/optimised service facility. In this paper, a single channel multiple server model is used to analyse the characteristics of queuing model.","PeriodicalId":122274,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Knowledge Management in Tourism and Hospitality","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131023689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experience was captured from the online review website. Content analysis and descriptive statistics were employed. The results of the study indicate that eco-tourist experience was related to aspects such as overall experience, tourist guide, adventure experience, accommodation experience, recommendation, food quality, and service quality. The results of the study will help the eco-tourism operators to understand the factors influencing the eco-tourist experience. The current research provides a clue to formulate tourism marketing mix. The study will be valuable for the eco-tourism operators to evaluate the performance of their brand and to develop strategies to enhance the quality of the experience to the next level. The present research is the first study conducted in Indian context related to eco-tourist experience based on the eco-tourism operator performance. Limitations and future research directions have been discussed.","PeriodicalId":122274,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Knowledge Management in Tourism and Hospitality","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133319574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
