ABSTRACT

The professional nature guiding industry has become increasingly interested in the term “transparent guiding.” However, the interpretation of the term in practical guide work is basically experiential and lacks a theoretical foundation. The concept carries the potential to describe the complex competencies needed for a nature guide to succeed. Through analytic and reflexive autoethnography based on decades of guide experience and supplemented by a focus group interview with guides, this paper discusses best practices for transparent guiding. The findings have implications for the development of guide theory, as well as for the practical education of nature guides.

透明引导：对自然引导实践理论的贡献

摘要

专业的自然向导行业对“透明向导”一词越来越感兴趣。但是，实践指导工作中对术语的解释基本上是经验性的，缺乏理论基础。这个概念有可能描述自然指南成功所需的复杂能力。通过基于数十年导游经验的分析和反思性自我民族志，并辅以对导游的焦点小组访谈，本文讨论了透明指导的最佳实践。这些发现对向导理论的发展以及自然向导的实践教育具有重要意义。
