The present context of COVID19 pandemics has highlighted the vulnerability of tourism. Sustainable tourism needs to be thoroughly implemented to confront this and other crises; and sustainable tourism pedagogies must accompany the process, especially in terms of students' professional skills essential for overcoming crisis situations. This paper seeks to evaluate the Degrees of Tourism in Spain from the perspective of both students and teachers in order to show to what extent they consider students to be sufficiently qualified so as to address the challenges required in the tourism sector to deal with this and other crises. To answer this question, we have turned to Sustainable Tourism Pedagogy (STP), a framework for the critical analysis of tourism studies based on six areas of literacy that this article will use for empirical analysis. The STP core literacies have been evaluated in a statistically validated questionnaire addressed to 393 respondents and data analysis has been performed with analytical descriptive techniques. The results show: i) that Tourism Degrees do not meet the needs of today's students, especially because of a major lack of sustainability issues, ii) significant gaps between the perception of teachers and students, iii) that there are calls for a more sustainable tourism pedagogy in Higher Education. This paper concludes by highlighting the urgent need to revise official national programmes.

当前 COVID19 大流行的背景凸显了旅游业的脆弱性。需要彻底实施可持续旅游业以应对这场危机和其他危机;可持续的旅游教学法必须伴随这一过程,特别是在学生克服危机情况所必需的专业技能方面。本文旨在从学生和教师的角度评估西班牙的旅游学位,以表明他们在多大程度上认为学生有足够的资格,以解决旅游业应对这一和其他挑战所需的挑战。危机。为了回答这个问题,我们转向了可持续旅游教育学 (STP),这是一个基于六个素养领域的旅游研究批判性分析框架,本文将用于实证分析。STP 核心素养已在针对 393 名受访者的经统计验证的问卷中进行了评估,并且已使用分析描述技术进行了数据分析。结果表明:i) 旅游学位不能满足当今学生的需求,尤其是因为严重缺乏可持续性问题,ii) 教师和学生的看法之间存在重大差距,iii) 需要更可持续的高等教育中的旅游教学法。本文最后强调了修订官方国家计划的紧迫性。s 学生,特别是因为严重缺乏可持续性问题,ii) 教师和学生的看法之间存在重大差距,iii) 呼吁在高等教育中采用更可持续的旅游教学法。本文最后强调了修订官方国家计划的紧迫性。s 学生,特别是因为严重缺乏可持续性问题,ii) 教师和学生的看法之间存在重大差距,iii) 呼吁在高等教育中采用更可持续的旅游教学法。本文最后强调了修订官方国家计划的紧迫性。
