Teach Science Concepts and Inquiry with Food
|
Two Web Seminars were presented by scientists and education specialists from the Food and Drug Administration, FDA, one by Dr. Kenneth Taylor and the other by Alan Tart.
The first seminar focused on teaching food safety to oral culture learners and the challenges and lessons learned by FDA that are applicable to classroom teachers. The second seminar focused on dietary supplements and the regulations and guidelines that surround the information and claims made by these products. The presenters shared their science expertise, answered questions from the participants, and provided information regarding web sites that students can use in the classroom. These Web Seminars were designed for educators of grades 5–8.
Each web seminar is a unique, stand-alone, program. Archives of these web seminars
and the presenters’ PowerPoint presentations will be available on this web page.
