Original Tourism Learning Area manual published in 2006, superceded by the Tourism Knowledge & Innovation Communities - Learning Area Made Easy handbook( 2012) that is linked to the online Learning Area toolkit, which this handbook envisaged. This original manual is still a worthwhile read for those wishing to know more of the theory and rational behind learning areas, plus more detailed descriptions of learning area development processes.
