It is a tourism based on the experience of nature, which enables the economic and social development of local communities. It is a more synergetic approach to tourism that tends to bond the tourist, local community and the environment. Ecotourism is a subset of the field of sustainable tourism. That's the primary reason why developing countries are now embracing it, and including it in their economic development and conservation strategies. Ecotourism is cultural tourism, nature tourism; such as assisting with conservation programmes, a travel learn experience, a little bit of soft adventure, and beneficial for the indigenous peoples. It focuses primarily on experiencing and learning about nature, its landscape, flora, fauna and their habitats; as well as cultural artifacts from the locality.\n\n\n\\nEnvironmental managers operate with the assumption that there is an optimum balance between environmental protection and permissible human activities. Ethics dictates where that balance lies.

They enter their pre-school years with a significant background of learning experiences, through interactions with the family, friends and other people around them. During their pre-school years, support for children is continued in a range of settings in the private, public and voluntary sectors. At the same time many of a child's most valuable experiences continue to take place in the home and the community. Staff in preschool education are, for that reason, working in partnership with parents in developing children's learning. The vital contribution of preschool education lies in developing and broadening the range of children's learning experiences so as to leave them confident, eager and enthusiastic learners; who look forward to starting school. The starting point for all learning is the child and this requires a recognition of the particular experiences that children bring to the early years setting and the ways in which these are fostered and developed. For adults this often involves negotiating the balance between the younger child's struggle to achieve independence, and their need for ongoing emotional support. Play is a key activity, at this stage of learning. This book deals with early development and the role of the school setting in the education and well-being of a child.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oryson Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51453356441878,"sku":null,"price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/8905\/3974\/files\/Encyclopaedia-of-Classroom-Environment-in-Child-Education.jpg?v=1781934645"},{"product_id":"encyclopedia-of-teaching-and-learning","title":"Encyclopedia Of Teaching And Learning","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the independence of India, there has been a quantitative expansion in the field of education in terms of an explosion in the number of students. Consequently the number of teachers have also increased substantially. The emerging aims of education include equipping all the citizens to lead a better life, providing equal opportunities and basic amenities for all Indian citizens irrespective of caste, creed, colour or locality. As per the new 20 point programme, a threefold approach has been envisaged to arrest illiteracy through: (1) ensuring 100 percent enrolment as 5+ in schools and (2) preventing drop outs from the lower primary stage and to (3) wipe out illiteracy at least from the age range 15-35 by March 1990, giving place of priority to women, SC and ST and other deprived sections. There are about 11.5 crores in this category in India. If these people are to be reached and made literate, rigorous efforts are needed. Governmental and voluntary agencies are in the field. During the last 5 years college students are in the front of illiteracy eradication work. Work has to continue in this area so as to ensure development in our society. This book is a comprehensive guide to the methods and aims of education and teaching in more recent times.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oryson Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51453359030550,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/8905\/3974\/files\/Encyclopaedia-of-Teaching-and-Learning.jpg?v=1781934665"},{"product_id":"higher-education-assessment-and-techniques","title":"Higher Education: Assessment And Techniques","description":"\u003cp\u003eFundamental to education is the need to evaluate student learning and the effectiveness of teaching methods and the programs offered. Assessment allows faculty to determine what, and how well, students are learning. Assessment also allows faculty to fine tune teaching methods. Finally, assessment allows department or division heads to evaluate the effectiveness of entire programs. Assessment strategies whether of the individual, the course, or the entire program give faculty an impressive tool to measure learning. Assessment strategies must be related to the course material and relevant to students' lives. Provide assessment strategies that relate to students' work, such as product analysis or portfolios. Have students use simulated activities for computer courses, keep a log of performance ratings or references, or role play job interviews, mock trials, or historical moments. Higher Education Assessment and Techniques provides guidance for assessing and promoting institutional effectiveness.

Apprenticeships are designed for many levels of work from manual trades to high knowledge work. However, as the labour market becomes more specialized and economies demand higher levels of skill, governments and businesses are increasingly investing in the future of vocational education through publicly funded training organizations and subsidized apprenticeship or traineeship initiatives for businesses. At the post-secondary level vocational education is typically provided by an institute of technology, university, or by a local community college. Vocational education has diversified over the 20th century and now exists in industries such as retail, tourism, information technology, funeral services and cosmetics, as well as in the traditional crafts and cottage industries.\n\\nThe book will be an indispensable source for all professionals, researchers and students in this subject and for anyone working in the related areas for acquiring up-to-date overviews.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oryson Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51453359325462,"sku":null,"price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/8905\/3974\/files\/Principles-of-Vocational-Training.jpg?v=1781934693"},{"product_id":"role-of-vocational-education","title":"Role Of Vocational Education","description":"\u003cp\u003eVocational Education and Training (VET) is an important element of the nation's education initiative. In order for Vocational Education to play its part effectively in the changing national context and for India to enjoy the fruits of the demographic dividend, there is an urgent need to redefine the critical elements of imparting vocational education and training to make them flexible, contemporary, relevant, inclusive and creative. Vocational education may be classified as teaching procedural knowledge. This can be contrasted with declarative knowledge, as used in education in a usually broader scientific field, which might concentrate on theory and abstract conceptual knowledge, characteristic of tertiary education. Vocational education can be at the secondary, post-secondary level, further education level and can interact with the apprenticeship system.
