Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Refer to the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric under the Settings icon above for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated. Food Safety [WLOs: 1, 2] [CLOs: 1, 3]
Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapter 3 in your text. Imagine you are the new director of Tinkerbell’s KinderCare. Based on what you have learned so far, you are familiar with food safety principles but soon realize that your staff is not. Choose one of the scenarios below to use for your initial post: After assisting children in the restroom, Sally, the teacher’s assistant for the 3-year-olds, does not wash her hands and serves lunch. The toddlers in Kim’s class did not finish their morning snack of cheese and crackers. At 5:00 p.m., Kim picks up the remaining cheese and refrigerates it for the next day. Breakfast in the infant room consists of blueberry-flavored yogurt, 1/2 cup of wheat puffs, and milk. Even though Annie is lactose intolerant and cannot eat gluten, she is served this breakfast.
Initial post:Your initial post should include the following: List your chosen scenario in your subject line. Describe an aspect of food safety being disregarded in your scenario and how it could affect the well-being of children. Identify alternative best practice procedures that should be followed. Support your ideas with at least one outside source.
Guided Response:Read and respond to the posts of at least two peers who have scenarios different from your initial post. Critique their suggestions for food safety by citing a possible obstacle to one of them and offer an alternative idea.
Though two replies are the basic expectation, for deeper engagement and learning you are encouraged to provide responses to any comments or questions others have given to you. Remember that continuously engaging with peers and the instructor will further the conversation and provide opportunities to demonstrate your content expertise, critical thinking, and experiences with this topic.
