Well we have already finished the first chapter of nutrition in the "food technology in action" textbook. What textbook are you using to study from? I don't know about collecting articles we haven't been told anything about that in my class. Are we going to have to write about it in our exam?? When did you do your trials? Our trials are going to be in week3 and week 4. Food tech in week 4.
if i'm not wrong.....i think i only have 1 more chapter to go...cos we just finished upto chap 18 for our trials....food tech in action...isn't that the only book?
i did my trials on the last 2 weeks or last term..
i'm not really sure about the articles....my teacher seems so lost when it comes to work out of the textbooks....so if your teacher tells you anything..remember to inform me..hehee

Also I asked my teacher about the articles and she said we should collect stuff for our own knowlege out of newspapers and magazines on food realted articles. She gave a copy of one article today out to the class and if you want it I'll send it to you. Just let me know if you want it or not next time you reply.

Hey ice_cream did you get the article I sent you? I've never sent a document via email so I was wondering if it worked.
For the assignment our teacher told as we had to devleop our own sauce or dip. So I made a rice based vegi dip. I had to make it at home, package it with correct labelling on the package and then take it to school along with our written work on the dip. Haven't got my assignment back yet so I don't know what I got for it.

hmm...you only had to do a dip...i have to do a stupid "healthy snack food"
and i thought of egg tarts...but my stupid teacher put me down..

Well we had a certian critria of what we had to put in our written part. We had to pretend we were a food manfacturing company and that I was the owner. I had to talk about past products our company made, also why our company decided to make a new product. I had to talk about where I was going to obtain my raw materials form, and how regularly our deliveries to my factory would come. I had to talk about machinery that was in my production line. I also had to conduct a swot analysis for my product, identify what packaging i was going to use and why i was using it (eg recylable), I had to research labelling laws and create our own label for the product. I had to talk about what size my company was (eg. multinational) and how big the factory was. I also had to do HACCP analysis and flowchart. Then I had to make a sample survey that I would use as a taste test survey. Lastly we had to talk about a promotional campaign for our product.
Overall I think it was the largest project I ever done.
Our teacher still hasn't given it back yet.

Haven't got anything back yet.
All I did though was make up a few questions like: 'Did you like the texture of the food?' 'Did the packagine appeal to you?' ect..
Then for each question I gave them several boxes that they could tick with faces above ranging from a sad face to a happy face. Then all the person (who took the survey) would have to do is read the question and tick the box. Eg: if the question was 'did you like the texture?' and you liked it alot you would tick the box under the smiley face.
PS My exam will be in two weeks time. Is there anything that appeared alot in your trials or any tips??
