Teaching Methods
The presentation of the topics will be done using the bibliography (books, magazines and articles) and the websites of leading national and international institutions (UNESCO and European Union), where students can obtain reports, studies, and relevant information about the matters under discussion.
Students will be given other sources where they can access the relevant information that allows them to complete exercises using some national and international references subordinated to the following general theme "Landscapes, cultural touring and local development.
Learning Outcomes
The importance of leisure and tourism in contemporary society acquires even greater importance in a country like Portugal diverse and asymmetric in landscape, heritage, culture, economic and social terms, where tourism has a strong influence on the economy and whose geography is quite polarized. Thus, we intend to strengthen knowledge about the importance that landscapes and cultural heritage have on the development of cultural tourism. This implies pursuing two complementary goals:
a) Present and discuss subjects that enable a deeper understanding of topics such as:
. Cultural landscapes and their contexts: landscape, cultural heritage and tourism
. Cultural landscapes and their geographies: landscapes, heritage and classified sites
. Territory and cultural tourism: resources, networking, interventions
b) To acquire practical skills from some case studies focused on a deeper understanding of the following general theme: Landscapes, cultural touring and local development.
