Lower School Food Technology Booklets

These topic-based booklets have proved very successful with lower school students who like the hands-on approach. There is not too much writing involved but lots of experimentation, discussion, groupwork, self and peer assessment as well as practical cookery to stimulate interest and competition. All the information that students need is in the booklets but there is plenty of scope for extension work to keep the more able students interested as well. Each new topic builds on previous experiences and gradually increases the confidence and competence of the students so that they are prepared as possible for examinations and for living in a technological society.

Students are informed how their work will be assessed and given a summary of the content of each lesson to help them get the most benefit from the course.

Homework is included in each booklet, making it a simple task to assess progress and communicate this to the student. Supply staff and or non-specialist teachers find it relatively easy to work out what the students should learn from each lesson. Schemes of work related to the Programme of Study for Technology are also included.

Food Technology is a specialised practical subject. Food Technology Cover and Lesson Plans I and II have been developed to provide Departments with easy to use and stand alone lesson plans, which would be useful, when cover work is required. This comprehensive material has been developed to accommodate unforeseen and urgent situations.

The second set of lesson plans have been compiled with different class and extension work to cater for gifted, talented and able students (GTA), who might otherwise be forgotten in other teaching resources. The work formulated for the GTA students requires them to undertake in depth research to analyse, evaluate and use information effectively.

The teaching material could also form part of existing schemes of work for 11-16 year olds to help them prepare and organise their time effectively before completing a practical application; this could be an added bonus for fully qualified Food Technology teachers.

Each project has a full set of worksheets that give clear instructions to staff as to how to administer the material, together with discussion points and a list of the resources required. The students' worksheets set out the brief/topic together with a format showing how this is to be achieved successfully. All the sheets contained in these projects are based on Food Technology topics and are relevant to current education policies. The material has been designed with the knowledge that not all lessons are allocated the same amount of time; therefore, the work set can accommodate this. The material could provide a valuable contribution to the students' experiences in soft technology.
