We sought to explore the experiences of lecturers who have taken part in CPD and how these experiences had changed their teaching styles. Specifically, the objectives were to inquire into their reason (s) for embarking on CPD, the types of CPD undertaken as well as the changes that had been made in their teaching, learning and assessment practice as a result of their CPD. The study used interviews as well as self-reflective reports to ascertain answers to these objectives from participants‟ perspectives. This paper compares and determines the most important changes that have occurred in the teaching/learning at the Ghana Technology University College and possible future impact that the changes may have on lecturers.

Title A name given to the resource Will their absence make a difference? The role of local volunteer NGOs in home-stay intermediation in Ghana’s Garden City Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Elizabeth Agyeiwaah, Alexandru O Dimache Description An account of the resource Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in home-stay arrangements in Ghana’s cultural city, Kumasi, and further assess NGO intermediation of home-stay from home-stay operators’ and international volunteer tourists’ perspectives. Design/methodology/approach A mixture of quantitative and qualitative approaches is used to target three main stakeholders of volunteer tourism including international volunteer tourists, home-stay operators, and local NGOs. Findings There are seven major roles played by volunteer NGOs in the home-stay arrangement. However, from operators’ perspective, NGOs may hinder the economic viability of home-stay through inadequate/low payment. Originality/value The study highlights the unexplored brokerage role of NGOs in volunteer tourism in home-stay intermediation and its implications for sustainable tourism.

Title A name given to the resource Re-conceptualizing volunteer tourism organizations roles: A host perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Elizabeth Agyeiwaah, Felix Elvis Otoo Description An account of the resource While volunteer tourism organizations (VTOs) remain important intermediaries in the practice of volunteer tourism, questions remain on the role they play in serving the interests of host communities. This paper explores the role(s) of VTOs in a rural volunteer tourism hub in Ghana from a host community perspective using a phenomenological inquiry. An integrated framework of Critical/Institutional Analysis and Development (C/IAD) was used to examine host community experience with VTOs' role. Data was collected through focus group discussion and in-depth interviews with 43 residents of Asebu - Ghana. The study revealed that while VTOs act as facilitators and interpreters of local culture, issues of over-regulation and protectionism isolate guests from the host as well as rob some host of any meaningful socio-economic benefits and interactions.

Title A name given to the resource Conceptualizing post-COVID 19 tourism recovery: A three-step framework Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Kwaku Adutwum Boakye Description An account of the resource The hospitality, travel, tourism, and events industry remains one of the hardest-hit casualties of the COVID-19 pandemic. This conceptual paper examines responses to COVID-19 by the government of Ghana and its implication for tourism businesses. It discusses weaknesses exposed, and lessons learned by practitioners because of COVID-19. The paper discusses the lack of a centralized database, lack of insurance, and insufficient financial reserves which have left the industry vulnerable in the wake of the pandemic. Based on these, the paper proposes that the Ghanaian tourism industry be sustained by the use of digitalization, social media, and a revived domestic tourism industry. The paper recommends a three-step recovery model based on the reinvention of domestic tourism and concludes by highlighting the possible transformation of the industry as well as the need for a concerted, all-encompassing effort … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Routledge Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=UelpwsoAAAAJ&citation_for_view=UelpwsoAAAAJ:hqOjcs7Dif8C Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/0d6e3b69dbd867562c2255af786fa715.pdf 79cb6c6bfacf2ae5cac2d5789cbf277e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
