Abstract

Public catering and tourism education are ripe for innovative approaches, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers exciting possibilities. Here's how AI research can be integrated into these classes:

  1. Research Applications:
  • · Personalized Learning Paths: AI can analyze student performance data to recommend personalized learning paths. Imagine an AI system suggesting specific online modules on food safety or cultural sensitivity based on a student's strengths and weaknesses.
  • · Chatbots for Customer Service Training: Develop chatbots that simulate real-world customer interactions in hotels or restaurants. Students can practice communication, problem-solving, and hospitality skills through these AI-powered scenarios.
  • · Predictive Analytics for Tourism Trends: Use AI to analyze tourism data and predict travel trends. Students can learn how AI can be used to inform marketing strategies and destination management in the tourism industry.
  1. Incorporating AI into Classes:
  • · AI-powered Simulations: Create virtual simulations where students manage a restaurant kitchen or design a tourism itinerary using AI tools. These simulations can provide a safe and immersive learning environment.

Overall, AI offers exciting possibilities for educational research in public catering and tourism. By utilizing AI effectively, educators can personalize learning, develop essential skills, and gain valuable insights to improve student success.
