Sažetak
Croatia is currently in process of adjustment of undergraduate economics curriculum, business and tourism and hospitality management programs to the Bologna Declaration. Croatia has to follow the world trend of the generic or business orientation and specialization, based on new methods and research-oriented programm. The general aim is to incorporating educational technology into tourism and hospitality education in tertiary institutions. It is very important to encourage in tourism and hospitality education self-learning process, rather than the traditional teaching model. An innovation in tourism and hospitality teaching process can offer the possibility of using different types of media presentation, e.g. video cassettes with a workbook, textbook and spreadsheet applications. Positive attitudes associated with multimedia and self-efficacy is enhanced when all students undertake the same presentation. Students have to be able to prepare and present models, which incorporate more factors into a single study. Programs include examining business assessments and general education literature to identify factors associated with goal’ s performance and to examine the components of the models. Educators have to provide to students practical discussions and case studies, which will result as favorable impact on the learning environment of their introductory tourism and hospitality classes. The assignment should provide students evaluation through different sources of feedback - questionnaire, a student's performance on the assignment, and reflections by the teaching staff. If the self-learning package is holistic, the student's attainment of knowledge and skills is most satisfying. Those are some of the possibilities to promote excellence in tourism and hospitality education, research and practice.
