Welcome to the Cultural Awareness in Hospitality and Tourism Course Website (TR1031)

It is planned that the course will run on the Borlänge campus in the so-called Study Period 4 which runs from 31 March to 6 June 2025.

** For information about preparing for the 1st Seminar, please make sure you are registered for the course and then look at the Home section **


First, look at these links:

(1) Course Information - course description, material, skills, assessments, etc

(2) Link to schedule


Then, click on the links below to access additional information and, if necessary, help (items #6-8):

(3) Official course syllabus

(4) Literature list 

(5) Campus layout (finding your classrooms)

(6) Support staff's Zoom room - access this Zoom room to speak directly to our support staff if you have questions about, eg, using the course website or anything else regarding your studies here (not just this course).  All the support staff are proficient in English. 

(7) Support staff's email - for questions about applications/registrations, contact the course administrator (please write the course code TR1031 in the subject line of your email)

(8) Specific questions about the course - once registered, use this link to post questions (anonymously) which is also available in the General Course Information module, or before/after registration use the Inbox function (see purple menu, extreme left)


Once you are registered, you will have access to the course material which can be found in the Modules section (which you will see in the menu on the left)

List.svg I will provide material which you will download and use in Microsoft Word and Powerpoint formats.  If you do not currently have access to these formats, the university offers the Office 365 package to registered students.  More details via this link.

If the arrow in front of the Module name is pointing left, eg: Canvas Module Name example just click on the arrow so it points down to see the contents, eg: Canvas Module Contents example

Once you have completed the work in a module, I recommend that you 'collapse' the module by clicking on the little arrow so it points left.  In this way, you only have the current module material visible.

It is also recommended that you right click on a document/link/etc and open it in a new tab rather than directly within Canvas (makes navigation easier). Open in new tab.png
