Jay, I don't know if I am on the right track or not...
Webquest designed for students enrolled in Food Studies 10 and 30. There are no prerequisites for either of the Foods classes, so this webquest could be used in either class. The webquest would be used in Module 2- Kitchen and Food Safety. This is probably the most important part of the Food Studies area. Improperly cooked food and improper food handling can cause serious illness and even death. The link to the Sask Ed guide is http://www.sasklearning.gov.sk.ca/docs/paa/foodst/index.html
The webquest will involve researching specific websites and finding the information needed to safely set up and maintain a home or commercial kitchen. This information can, and will at some point transfer to real world application, either when the student strikes off from home to live on their own, or if at some point they work in some form of a commercial food establishment.
Some of the websites that the students will access for this quest are
The Canadian food inspection agency http://www.inspection.gc.ca/
Health Canada – In your kitchen: safe food handling tips http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/securit/kitchen-cuisine/index-eng.php
Be food safe website http://www.befoodsafe.ca/en-home.asp
I really do not know about any activities, the resources, a concept map or main questions to be addressed in the site at this point.
Let me know if I am on the right track so far and I will try and flush out the rest by the next posting.
Yes you are on the right track. What is missing as you have already alluded to is the actual processes the students will follow to achieve the objectives you have chosen. The resources would be the websites, printed material and individuals they could consult to complete a creative task or project. YOu might have them use the drwaing toolbar in MS word to layout a kitchen that meets the standards required in the real world. Evaluation might be done a number of different ways.
