Abstract

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has become a crucial component in tourism higher education as the industry increasingly demands graduates who are communicatively competent, professionally confident, and interculturally aware. This article aims to provide a descriptive analysis of current trends, identify key gaps, and propose future directions in ESP curriculum design within tourism higher education. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study synthesizes relevant literature on ESP, tourism education, and curriculum development to map prevailing pedagogical practices and conceptual challenges. The findings indicate that contemporary ESP tourism curricula have shown a positive movement toward speaking-oriented, task-based, and performance-driven instruction that reflects the needs of workplace communication. However, significant gaps persist between students’ linguistic competence and their readiness to perform professional communication in authentic tourism contexts. These gaps are primarily attributed to the limited integration of industry-based service scenarios, psychological readiness factors such as confidence and willingness to communicate, and the development of intercultural competence. The discussion highlights the need to reconceptualize ESP tourism not merely as linguistic pedagogy, but as professional communication pedagogy that emphasizes service-oriented discourse, authentic tasks, and learner readiness. This article concludes that a holistic ESP tourism curriculum, integrating linguistic, psychological, cultural, and professional dimensions, is essential to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world tourism communication. The study offers conceptual implications for curriculum designers and educators and recommends future empirical research across diverse local and global tourism contexts to validate further and refine ESP tourism curriculum models.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze human resource (HR) development strategies in dealing with artificial intelligence (AI) disruption and formulate a digital talent development model based on AI readiness. The global world of work is currently undergoing a major transformation due to technological advances, such as AI, automation, and machine learning, which are causing conventional skills to be increasingly replaced by digital systems. The research approach employed is qualitative descriptive, with a phenomenological analysis conducted through in-depth interviews and literature reviews of industry practitioners, educators, and students in the field of digital technology. Data analysis was conducted using the thematic analysis method to identify patterns of strategy, skill gaps, and collaborative roles between education and industry in the development of digital talents. The results indicate that effective human resource development in response to AI disruption must focus on three key aspects: strengthening the lifelong learning ecosystem, implementing reskilling and upskilling based on digital technology, and fostering collaboration among academics, industry, and government through the Triple Helix approach. The skills most needed in the AI era include a combination of digital literacy, data analytics, AI awareness, critical thinking, creativity, and emotional intelligence. In addition, formal education and industrial training must complement each other in creating adaptive, innovative, and competitive human resources. This research strengthens the relevance of Human Capital Theory, Digital Transformation Framework, and Lifelong Learning Concept as a theoretical foundation in designing digital talent development strategies in the era of the Industrial Revolution 5.0.
