Dear students, and colleagues,
As you have already seen, step one of the WebQuest addresses Food system and its interconnected parts
In this step you work in almost all tasks individually.
Your teachers will call you to join a MENTIMETER presentation, by using with your smartphones, the following QR code or by going to menti.com and use the code 3462907
PAY ATTENTION: It's valid now BUT expires soon!
There you have to give your answers to the following questions:
- What is THE FIRST WORD that comes to your mind when you hear the word "system"? so as to start our discussion on the meaning of a "system".
After this happens, your teacher will move to the second slide, where you have to:
- Try to give a definition of food system.
Here will be presented the answers of all the participants.
Now that you have a better idea on what is the food system, you are called to work in a common mind map. Take a look in the following photo (adapted by http://www.food.systems/ ), make an hypothesis on its interconnected parts and create a mindmap on the coggle app -after your teachers invite you to join- describing the food system.
(see details for using coggle app to the tutorial page)
It's now time to develop some more facts. Watch the following interactive presentation about food system. There is also included a self-evaluation quiz.
At the end of this presentation, make a discussion with your teachers on possible missed parts, or misunderstanding and then you are called to add, if needed, some more parts to our mindmap.
Your last task for this step is to give an example of a food item that you like to consume, search for its journey until it comes to your plate (by paying attention to be included all the stages of the processing line)
Before you start your research, think about:
-Which are its ingredients?
-What activities are involved in getting these ingredients?
-Which processes are involved so as these products transformed to this food item?
Present your food item's path in a form of an infographic in the following twinboard. You can make use of any app you want -specially recommended genially, as we have already signed up.
