This document outlines a project where students will create a menu or diet plan. It identifies the knowledge and skills students need, including nutritional value of foods and research. Tasks like generating decision criteria and composition will be taught during the project. Tools like checklists and word processing will be used. Key dates and milestones are provided at a link. The document notes that tasks give students opportunity to demonstrate learning and that more scaffolding may be needed to guide students through the project, as challenges around nutrition details and technology could arise.
