Social media plays a significant role in influencing travel decisions in today’s digital landscape. This study examines how various aspects of social media specifically content types (videos, images), user feedback (comments), and engagement metrics (likes, shares) impact tourists’ decision-making processes, grounded by the AIDA model. A purposive sample of 200 tourists participated in an online survey via Google Forms across the Philippines Archipelago. Findings revealed that videos were the most influential feature across all decision-making stages: catching attention, generating interest, building desire, and prompting action. In contrast, likes received the lowest influence, although still impactful. The results highlight the significance of video content in travel marketing, suggesting that marketers should prioritise producing creative, authentic, and engaging travel videos to establish trust and effectively guide tourists through their decision-making process. This research underscores the growing value of user-generated video content as a powerful tool in driving tourist engagement and travel behaviour.

Tribal communities are still facing multi variant issues even today. They possesses a distinct dialect and cultural traits. One of the most significant feature of the Tribal economy is that they have been restricted to low position on many occasions physically and socially and they lead a remote life instead of being engrossed in the social life due to many reasons away from mainstream population. On minute terms these variations are inbuilt and it is not visible. But when we count them together this may lead to a deprivation of their life from social, economic and educational and occupational aspect. Their land deprivations, lack of assets, acute debt, exploitation both mental and physical etc severely affect their livelihood. Ultimate result is all these leads them to alcoholism and drug usage, misuse of their women etc. government introduced many schemes and programs for the empowerment of tribals. People’s Plan Programmes, Gram Sabhas, OoruKootams, Ayalkootams, VanaSamrakshanaSamithies (VSS) and a plethora of social institutions under AHADS were all built up for inclusive participatory, just and sustainable development. Yet Attappady still retains its prime position in the media for environmental destruction, poverty, Tribal right violations of every conceivable kind and so on. In addition to poverty, starvation and every sort of exploitation, malnutrition of pregnant women, infant mortality, especially death of newborn babies swallows this once rich land. Perhaps the single-most important contributory factor to the child malnutrition deaths, and the cause for the overwhelming poverty of the Tribals, which fails to be addressed to date, is the alienation and loss of most of their fertile agriculturally suitable land, total destruction of their indigenous mixed cropping system, change in diet and lifestyle, and loss of hope. Attappady Comprehensive Tribal and Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (ACT and PVTG) Development Project got its sanction for work on 3rd September 2014. On 18th February 2014 the Empowered Committee of the Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India approved the project. For duration of seven years these project got support from National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM). The project was formulated in the context of the incidents of child deaths reported from the block during 2012-14. With 58 malnutrition deaths reported over a short period, Attappady had gained nation-wide attention. It has been pointed out that land alienation and the loss of traditional food security systems had led to acute poverty and widespread malnutrition. Questions were raised on the effectiveness of the development projects implemented in the area over the last few decades.

SMC International Training, Inc., Intel, the National Science Foundation and Maricopa Advanced Technological Education Center (MATEC) partnered in 2001 to develop a technician training platform for highly automated production systems. The system was to have broad but significant applications in a variety of high tech industries including electronic and nano devices, aerospace subsystem manufacturing, thin film and optics production, biomedical device material handling, and highly automated cargo transport control and monitoring systems. Twelve community colleges in the seven states vying for national recognition as high tech manufacturing regions were invited to join this coalition. These educational institutions participated with industry partners in the conception of and ultimate realization of the HAS 200 (Highly Automated System) Training Platform, currently available from SMC -International Training. HAS 200 training systems were installed at the Pilot schools over a 12 month period in 2003 -2004.

Reed, M. (2013). of a Community College Administrator. San Francisco, CA: JosseyBass. 176 pp. $36.00 (paperback). ISBN 978-1-118-00473-9. $28.99 (e-book). ISBN 978-1118-23553-9.Written with intent of providing an orientation for next generation of community college leaders, after an introductory section outlining Reed's background, of a Community College Administrator moves into a general overview of community college and how it fits in hierarchy of higher education. Reed argues that community colleges are designed to serve and produce a middle class that economy no longer seems to want (p. 20). Reed's elaboration of this claim, [a]s with public libraries, there's something irreducibly utopian, and maybe even absurd, about idea of making higher education available to anyone who wants it, locally, on cheap (Reed, 2013, p. 20), sets tone. book is intended to be aggressive, controversial, and thought provoking. It delivers on all three.In opening sections, Reed makes some comparative descriptions of his work at FPU (For-Profit U) versus at community college. In Differences in Classroom, he notes that at FPU there was incessant attention paid to ways to reach hard-to-reach students while at community college, instruction was primarily teacher-centered, and often archaic. He does not appear to be a fan of or tenure, [b]ut when whole point of [the community college] is to maintain jobs for people who got tenure three decades earlier, you avoid stirring pot whenever you can (p. 27). Reed left FPU over disagreements (he notes) with home office. discussion of his arrival at a community college is titled Careful What You Wish for, and he was soon in another unhappy situation during which he started a blog Confessions of a Community College Dean. It was success of blog that led to book.The middle chapters describe important perspectives as well as operational issues an academic dean faces. It is here that we see some of strengths of book. Insights such as his descriptions in The True Costs of Construction provide informative and accurate accounts of jockeying and politicizing of important issues-in this case construction.If new space is result of a renovation rather than entirely new construction, Reed points out, the space scramble will occur twice: first as existing area is emptied out and former occupants are moved into 'swing space,' and again when they move back in and 'swing space' goes up for grabs. (p. 41)This is true and practical advice, kind of background information that a new administrator should find useful. He also describes important funding issues such as financial aid, grants, and naming rights, as well, with equally helpful tips and insights.Community College Administration describes some of basic administrative positions, but not without some stereotyping-when discussing administrative roles in organizational planning he notes faculty and individual departments usually try to ignore broad goals and pursue their own agendas while deans have lucky task of mediating among all of (Reed, 2013, p. 70). In discussing some of responsibilities, there is good insight into issues surrounding course scheduling and cancellations, assessment, program evaluation, and shared governance. The ability to get relatively comfortable with working with incomplete and flawed data required a significant attitude shift when I went from to administration (Reed, 2013, p. 79) is an excellent observation, and readers would benefit from seeing more of these perceptive examples. …

The rapid proliferation of e-learning tools that offer low or no cost investment and are not housed on institutional servers, has made it very attractive for faculty to move learning experiences online. Yet institutions are often unaware of the technology practices of instructors or learners, thereby investing time, effort, and funding into tools and infrastructure than may not be the best support for learning outcomes. This chapter describes shifts in the use of learning technologies, illustrates a high level overview for assessing current use and practice, and provides a framework for selecting delivery solutions and tools that can best support instructional goals.
