An Analysis of Tourism Teaching Style and Profile of Tourism Students

The aims of this study is to analyze the tourism teaching style according to the profile of tourism students. A total of 800 questionnaires were distributed to the students, with 698 copies were used for data analysis. The result of empirical analysis showed that tourism teaching style is comprised of multidimensional structure with four factors of suggestive, assertive, facilitative and collaborative. Results founded that there were significant differences of tourism teaching style as preferred by male and female students. Male students were found to prefer more suggestive, facilitative, and collaborative than female students. But there were not significant differences of tourism teaching style between grade and age group. In addition, results of 1 sample t-test indicated that all male and female, and grade group students preferred the collaborative teaching style as the most highly preferred followed by suggestive and facilitative. Therefore, we have to consider extending the model of tourism teaching style-course satisfaction and academic achievement, and include gender and a form of universities in order to understand this model broadly. Theoretical and managerial implications based on findings are discussed.
