The tourism industry has attained remarkable growth, and the need for professional Tourism English education has increased. Universities of online education can offer an environment for education to both job applicants and laymen who are interested in Tourism English. Tourism English belongs to English for Specific Purposes, which reflects the needs of specific area. The aim of this study is to propose improvements in classes design for online Tourism English instruction. The results of a needs analysis conducted on 160 Korean online university students suggest that online Tourism English class should be different from a traditional classroom-based one in regards to aims, contents, and methods. Online Tourism English class should not only focus on English for specific purposes, but also include more generalized topics. This comes as a result of the diverse backgrounds of online students. The results suggest that extralinguistic elements, such as culture and etiquette differences among English-speaking countries, become more interesting when introduced using pictures, videos, animations, etc. Additionally, SMS or emails can be utilized to raise students' motivation for online Tourism English class.

A smart tourism chatbot is needed as a user interface to efficiently provide smart tourism services such as recommended travel products, tourist information, my travel itinerary, and tour guide service to tourists. We have been developed a smart tourism app and a smart tourism information system that provide smart tourism services to tourists. We also developed a smart tourism chatbot service consisting of khaiii morpheme analyzer, rule-based intention classification, and tourism information knowledge base using Neo4j graph database. In this paper, we develop the Korean and English smart tourism Name Entity (NE) datasets required for the development of the NER model using the pre-trained language models (PLMs) for the smart tourism chatbot system. We create the tourism information NER datasets by collecting source data through smart tourism app, visitJeju web of Jeju Tourism Organization (JTO), and web search, and preprocessing it using Korean and English tourism information Name Entity dictionaries. We perform training on the KoBERT-CRF NER model using the developed Korean and English tourism information NER datasets. The weight-averaged precision, recall, and f1 scores are 0.94, 0.92 and 0.94 on Korean and English tourism information NER datasets.

본 논문에서는 관광의 1차적인 정보원으로서의 홈페이지와 관광홍보물의 언어학적 전환의 특징을 살펴보고자 한다. 즉 관광관련 사이트의 한국어 원문과 영어 번역물을 비교하면서 관광정보 텍스트가 올바르게 언어전환 되었는지 점검하고 나아가 전환된 영어번역물과 한국어 원문을 대조하면서 번역물에서 발생하는 언어규약과 의사소통의 특징을 살펴본다. 특히 한국어와 영어는 언어유형에서 대조적인 언어로서 번역을 통해 전환되었을 때 특이한 담화의 양상을 보인다. 즉 한국어에 비해 영어표현은 직설적이고 우회적인 표현을 피하는 경향이 있다. 또한 영어번역본에서는 영어 화자위주로 언어가 변형되어 표현됨을 주시할 수 있다. 이것은 영어를 사용하는 언어군에서 흔히 발생하는 양상으로 광의의 문화간의 차이로 간주될 수 있다. 따라서 외국관광객의 1차적 정보원으로서의 관광웹사이트는 관광정보를 제공하는 동시에 목적지의 문화를 간접적인 형태로 표현함으로써 사회적 이미지 형성과 문화간 차이를 대변하며 커뮤니케이션의 일환으로서 공손의 원칙과 Grice의 원칙을 준수하고 있다.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest a proposal for the betterment of the English curriculum in the Department of Tourism of a women's college. The paper includes not only the needs analysis of students but also that of personnel officers of tourism related companies and offices. Since the students will have to look for desirable jobs after graduation, the needs and demands of their potential employers or personnel officers are crucial in deciding what and how to teach. Based on these analyses, the paper also examines the current curriculum offered by the department. The needs, wants and necessities of the students, potential personnel officers, and the current curriculum will have to be taken into consideration in designing a more effective future curriculum. The results of the study reveal that more emphasis should be given on the improvement of students' communicative abilities and TOEIC scores.

With the rapid development of educational informatization, teaching methods become diversified characteristics, but a large number of information data restrict the evaluation on teaching subject and object in terms of the effect of English education. Therefore, this study adopts the concept of incremental learning and eigenvalue interval algorithm to improve the weighted decision tree, and builds an English education effect evaluation model based on association rules. According to the results, the average accuracy of information classification of the improved decision tree algorithm is 96.18%, the classification error rate can be as low as 0.02%, and the anti-fitting performance is good. The classification error rate between the improved decision tree algorithm and the original decision tree does not exceed 1%. The proposed educational evaluation method can effectively provide early warning of academic situation analysis, and improve the teachers' professional skills in an accelerated manner and perfect the education system.

본 연구는 동북아 크루즈관광시장의 성장에 따라 최근 급증하고 있는 국내 기항 크루즈상품 이용자의 관광만족도 분석을 통하여 국내 크루즈항만도시의 관광경쟁력 제고방안을 마련하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 2012년 크루즈관광객 실태조사 결과를 토대로 방한 크루즈관광객을 중국어권, 일어권, 영어권으로 구분하여 관광만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 각 언어권별로 관광지 일정, 출입국 절차, 교통, 쇼핑 등에서 관광만족도에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 향후 크루즈 항만도시별 마케팅 전략 수립에도 이러한 특성의 반영이 필요한 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 크루즈 관광객 유치증진 및 크루즈항만 활성화를 위한 관광마케팅 전략 수립과 더불어 크루즈관광산업 육성정책 마련에 유용한 정보를 제공한다는 측면에서 큰 의의가 있다.

According to Wenying Xu, Asian American literature abounds in culinary metaphors and references (8); subsequently, a growing number of critics have begun to recognize that food "feeds into the literary rendering of Asian American subjectivity [and] provides a language through which to imagine Asian alterity in the American imagination" (Mannur 13). Ann Mah's Kitchen Chinese: A Novel about Food, Family, and Finding Yourself (2010) is yet another text within which to investigate how food "operates as one of the key cultural signs that structure people's identities" (Xu 2). Even as Kitchen Chinese insists on underscoring that Chinese food, as much as the voyage to her "motherland" China, is critical to protagonist Isabelle's quest to gain a better understanding of herself, we are able to observe how Isabelle exploits Chinese culture and its foodways as "food pornography" in order to align herself with mainstream America. Needless to say, the novels' relegation of Chinese food as "food porn" is problematic in that it encourages readers to participate in the exoticization of Asia and its culture, and the reduction of its people as the other. Ultimately, this essay aims to consider how the consumption and rejection of food becomes a critical means by which the Asian American subject fashions her identity.
