Abstract

Indonesian tourism is one of the contributors to non-oil and gas foreign exchange. This field is very capable, supported by a wealth of local culture, beautiful nature, friendly people. Schools need curriculum tools that address the challenges of the tourism industry. Curriculum in every society or culture should be a reflection of the culture of the community itself. Community participation concerns cultural implications in curriculum development and culture. The elements involved in curriculum development are professional staff and staff from the community. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, the research site is in the Bandung School of Tourism involving 30 informants from academics and 5 informants from practitioners, data collection using interviews, observation and documentation, data analysis using data reduction, data presentation and conclusion. The results show that a culture-based tourism curriculum is still focused on developing cognitive abilities and learning activities are still often in the classroom, so there needs to be a restructuring of the administrative and technical aspects of implementing a culture-based curriculum.
