Hospitality Function
Culture Function
After receiving the necessary and vital help from my
following classmates I was able to come up with an activity that supported the curriculum
of home economics and also incorporated the fundamental contribution towards
technology. This task can be seen by the following description and also the
mind map below.
Task:
o
Getting students to choose at least three
different cultures that interested them or appealed to them. From here students
need to research their style of cuisine, methods of preparation, equipment used
and forms or ways of presenting foods. Via a blog the students need to record
their findings on each of the three cultures discussing the positives and negatives
of all three cuisines.
o
Then as a class students will to divide
themselves into two groups need to pick two different cuisines and developed
and create a three course menu that will be presented to the other group.
o
Students will need to think about, budget, availability
of foods, presentation, menu choices, the nutrition available within each meal
(throughout the application my fitness) and how hard their menu is to prepare. All
these aspects will need to be recorded within a process journal (either via their
blog or a wiki page).
o
Students will also be required to make a website
as a group which will have their overall menu, fundamental research of their
chose cuisine, images and examples of their trial cooks and a reflection of their
function.
o
To assess their final menus, each group will be asked
to create an instant restaurant that related to their chosen culture. Once they
have decorated and produced their three course menu students of the other group
will get to taste their finally foods (Just for a little bit of fun).
o
Based on their own reflection, students will
also need to record (either throughout their blog or website) a score in which
they believe the other team has achieved. Their score will need to be justified.
The digital technologies involved within this task can and
should include Skype or YouTube (to see how other countries prepare, cook and
present foods and how it is different from Australia), blogger (to recorded
their process journal), Weebly (to show to the class their findings and final
products, my fitness (to count the calories and nutrition available within
their chosen foods) and wiki (another option for their process journal).
