Area Development

The aims of this study were to identify particular cases where area development has not sufficiently taken into account the carrying capacity, and more generally, to identify saturation and capacity overload problems in tourist destinations. Incorporating a series of specific case studies, the study will recall factors and practices which have produced these situations of saturation or overload, with a view to setting forth a basis for a tourist policy in this area. This study focuses in particular on new or planned tourist destinations in developing countries.

Key Terms

Gastronomy represents a significant part of the cultural heritage and identity of tourist destinations; however, related scientific literature is scarce. Considering these aspects within the field of tourism and hospitality, and selecting the articles written in English indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus from 2001 to 2020, the objective of this research is twofold: (1) to present a bibliometric analysis of the literature on gastronomic heritage (71 articles); and (2) to analyze some aspects (main topics, frequency of key terms, methods, and data sources) of the research on case studies in Asia and Europe (46 articles), as they are the most prominent regions on the representative list of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity (UNESCO). The study shows the temporal evolution of the literature on gastronomic heritage in parallel with UNESCO’s actions on cultural heritage. The results reveal that most articles relate gastronomic heritage to the sustainability of tourist destinations, and that European case studies address sustainability more than Asian studies do. Regarding the methodology to analyze Asian and European case studies, qualitative research predominates. Within quantitative studies, the use of online content generated by consumers and marketers as a data source is rare.

Using Data

Desa Tongging sebagai salah satu destinasi wisata di Kawasan Danau Toba yang memiliki potensi untuk dikembangkan. Sebagai syarat utama pengembangan Desa Tongging sebagai Desa wisata, harus memiliki fasilitas umum yang layak, aman, dan nyaman. Terutama pada fasilitas jalan, tempat parkir, toilet dan tempat ibadah Musholla. Namun sangat disayangkan masih ada fasilitas umum yang belum ada dan layak di Desa Tongging. Mengingat perkembangan desa ini, maka perlu dilakukan perencanaan dan perancangan fasilitas umum tersebut. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan data hasil observasi lapangan yang dianalisa secara kualitatif. Fasilitas umum terdiri dari sarana pokok keparawisataan, sarana penunjang, dan prasarana umum. Hal ini dilakukan dengan menganalisa kondisi yang ada saat ini berdasarakan studi kasus di desa yang sudah berhasil menyusun perencanaan serta perancangannya. Kajian ini menghasilkan konsep dan prinsip rencana dan rancangan fasilitas umum yang berkelanjutan di Desa Tongging Tongging Village as one of the tourist destinations in the Lake Toba region that has the potential to be developed. As the main requirement for developing Tongging Village as a tourist village, it must have decent, safe and comfortable public facilities. Especially on road facilities, parking lots, toilets and places of worship. But it is unfortunate that there are still public facilities that do not yet exist and are feasible in Tongging Village. Considering the development of this village, it is necessary to do the planning and design of these public facilities. This research was conducted using data from field observations that were analyzed qualitatively. Public facilities consist of principal tourism facilities, supporting facilities, and public infrastructure. This is done by analyzing the current conditions based on case studies in villages that have succeeded in compiling their plans and designs. This study produced the concepts and principles of the plan and design of sustainable public facilities in Tongging Village.

ABSTRACTThis paper addresses the issue of corporate sustainability. It examines why achieving sustainability is becoming an increasingly vital issue for society and organisations, defines sustainability and then outlines a set of phases through which organisations can move to achieve increasing levels of sustainability. Case studies are presented of organisations at various phases indicating the benefits, for the organisation and its stakeholders, which can be made at each phase. Finally the paper argues that there is a marked contrast between the two competing philosophies of neo-conservatism (economic rationalism) and the emerging philosophy of sustainability. Management schools have been strongly influenced by economic rationalism, which underpins the traditional orthodoxies presented in such schools. Sustainability represents an urgent challenge for management schools to rethink these traditional orthodoxies and give sustainability a central place in the curriculum.

Multiple Regression Technique

Short-form versions of the Screening Test of Spanish Grammar (Toronto, 1973) and the Northwestern Syntax Screening Test (Lee, 1971) were devised for use with bilingual Latino children while preserving the original normative data. Application of a multiple regression technique to data collected on 60 lower social status Latino children (four years and six months to seven years and one month) from Spanish Harlem and Yonkers, New York, yielded a small but powerful set of predictor items from the Spanish and English tests. Clinicians may make rapid and accurate predictions of STSG or NSST total screening scores from administration of substantially shortened versions of the instruments. Case studies of Latino children from Chicago and Miami serve to cross-validate the procedure outside the New York metropolitan area.

Communication Needs

As the field of telepractice grows, perceived barriers to service delivery must be anticipated and addressed in order to provide appropriate service delivery to individuals who will benefit from this model. When applying telepractice to the field of AAC, additional barriers are encountered when clients with complex communication needs are unable to speak, often present with severe quadriplegia and are unable to position themselves or access the computer independently, and/or may have cognitive impairments and limited computer experience. Some access methods, such as eye gaze, can also present technological challenges in the telepractice environment. These barriers can be overcome, and telepractice is not only practical and effective, but often a preferred means of service delivery for persons with complex communication needs.
