Research Abstract |
To investigate the possibility to apply food education to the science subject, we studied teaching materials of experience study based on the theory of food science, which can be used on both subjects, home economics and science. As a result, we could clarify changes of food ingredients in cooking and cold storage and arrange the data for teaching materials. Besides, we researched on the way of food education for elderly people and elementary school children for the purpose of gaining useful knowledge about effectiveness of experience study. It was suggested that experience study could be associated with deep understanding and motivation for learning, consequently it was recommended to try experience study including cooking and cooking experiments from the third and forth grade before starting home economics on food education in elementary school.
