REVIEWS -
This course is coming at an excellent
time for our students and children. Health risks, obesity,
and other health related illnesses are increasing around
the nation. … I can't
think of a better way to address these issues than to begin
teaching Food Science in our schools. C C
I really liked the demonstration... it really highlighted
the use of controls in an experiment, which is a concept
that is difficult for most of my middle level students to
grasp. D L
What is so wonderful about this
curriculum is that the safe practices can be immediately
transferred to the home environment, especially in cleanliness
and food safety. I
believe that we are building life learning in our students
to teach them these practices and make sure that they follow
them. L N
I found the activities in this program
excellent for demonstrating the scientific method. For my students, this is not
an easy idea. Looking for places of contamination and
discussing how to make it a "controlled" experiment
would really send the message to them. D L
As a Family & Consumer Science teacher, I want my students
to understand that foods and nutrition classes are science
based and provide an opportunity to apply knowledge learned
in science classes. Many of our students will
ultimately spend some time in a food related occupation even
if it is only their first part-time job. JS
My students were engaged, eager to present information,
and willing to follow through on safety procedures. Hopefully,
the facts will stick with them throughout their lives. C

Just want to let you know I've fallen
in love...with this on-line course! I hope I'm not
becoming addicted! LN
...of the six or so online classes
I've taken, I think that this one and the way you monitor
the websites, provide feedback and assistance and resources
ranks right up on the top. You really do a great job...M
