Module Code 單元編號 GEM2048 Module Title 單元名稱 BE A DOCENT FOR A CULTURAL TRAIL 導賞文化徑 Module Synopsis 單元概要 Cultural trails offer the users a unique experience of local cultures in a hands-on and authentic manner. With reference to the idea of Community-Based Tourism (CBT), students will explore the concepts of cultural trails and their establishment in the community with a link to the environment, conservation, development, sustainability, empowerment, and self-reliance. This helps students to construct cultural awareness and identities. The course will offer the students an opportunity to act as a docent to guide a tour of a unique cultural trail. With the guidance from the partner agency, the students have to take the users to experience the cultural trail and guide them to discover and connect with the local culture of a place, such as heritage, history, arts, entertainment, and everyday life. By reflecting on the service-learning experiences, the students will reflect on 1) the personal value changes such as awareness of the preservation of the local culture and 2) the societal benefit of cultural trails such as better understanding and respect of the local culture.
