Nutritional Safety Issue for any Nation!
Experiential Leaning Mode Learning:

The Experiential Leaning Mode Learning by doing engages the learner, encouraging him/her to think more, work hard, and ultima tely
learn more thoroughly than with traditional teaching methods. Experiential learning is more than just doing activities. It involves discussing the
activity, drawing conclusions from the activity, and applying them to the real world. The experiential model and its five ste ps are used in each
activity in this guide as a means to help you gain the most from the learning experiences.

How Experiential Learning Works


Do
1. Experience – Begin with a concrete experience. This can be an individual or group activity that involves “doing something.”
Reflect.
2. Share – Next get the group or individual to talk about what they experienced when they were doing the activity. Share reactions and
observations. Talk freely.
Sharing questions:
 What did you do?
 What happened?
 How did you feel to…?
Page 2 of 93
Kimmy’s Vocational Training Institute, House No.1, Gulistan Colony, College Road, Abbottabad Cantt. Sardar Taimur Hyat -Khan
 What was the most difficult? Easiest?
3. Process – Discuss how questions are created by the activity. Processing questions (use information generated from sharing
questions):
 What problems or issues seemed to occur over and over?
 What similar experience(s) have you had?
Apply
4. Generalize – Find general trends or common lesson in the experience. Identify the important points that apply to the real world.
Generalizing questions:
 What did you learn about yourself through this activity?
 What did you learn about making decisions (or other life skills)?
 How do the major themes or ideas relate to real life and not just the activity?
 How did you go about making your decision?
5. Apply – Talk about how the new information can be applied to every- day life or sometime in the future.
Applying questions:
 How can you apply what you learned to a new situation?
 How will the issues raised by this activity be useful in the future?
 How will you act differently in the future as a result of this activity?

Interactive Demonstration: An interactive demonstration is a fun way to share what you have learned with others. The key is getting the
audience involved in doing what they are doing, not just showing them. You can give an interactive demonstrat ion at anywhere a lot of people
gather. You can choose almost any topic in the Foods curriculum.
Here are some questions to ask when choosing a topic:
 Is it something that can be done in three to five minutes?
 Is it something other people might like to learn about?
 Is there something hands-on for the audience to do?
 Can the supplies for the hands-on activity be used over and over again, or do they have to be replaced every time?
 Having to replace them adds to the cost.

A demonstration should last about three to five minutes, and you need to be able to do it over and over again with different people. You
should have a conversation with the people you are demonstrating to. The goal is to involve the audience. Y ou can do this by having audience
members do what they are doing, play a game, answer questions, or do a hands-on activity. Some example: how to use a measuring cup or
measuring spoon, or how to find things on a Nutrition Facts label.

Everyone Needs Nutrients.
Nutrients are the special substances that your body gets from the food you eat. Your body needs many different nutrients, bec ause each
nutrient does a certain job for your body. You need a lot of some nutrients and not as much of others. Your body is an amazing machine that
knows how to handle all the nutrients you give it. There are five important food groups: fruits, vegetables, grain, protein, and dairy. Each of
these food groups contains a different set of nutrients. When you eat foods from ev ery food group every day, you are sure to get all the
nutrients your body needs.

Good sources of Vitamin A: Sweet Potatoes, Carrots, Spinach, Kale and other Dark Green Leafy Vegetables, and Winter Squash.
Carbohydrates Helps you see in the dark
Protein Builds and repairs muscles and other parts of your body.
Good sources of Vitamin C: Bell Peppers, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Strawberries, Pineapple, Oranges, Kiwi- Fruit, Cantaloupe, and
Cauliflower.
Fat gives you energy to Grow, Move, and Do Things.
Water Helps your Blood Carry Oxygen to all Parts of your Body—even your Toes!
Good sources of calcium: Dairy Products including Milk, Yogurt, and Cheese; Dark Green Leafy Vegetables; and Salmon.
Nutrients: How do I get them?
How do you know what foods to eat to get all the nutrients your body needs to stay healthy? There’s an easy way to check. Mak e half
your plate fruits and vegetables, choose a lean protein and a whole grain, and add a glass of milk or cup of yogurt, and you ’ll be on your way to
a healthy life.

Each module is designed to take approximately 4.5 to 5 hours and is divided into two main sections: The first classroom section is
devoted to learning basic steps and safety principles. The second section consists of a hands -on activity where participants have the opportunity
to practice what they learned and can a particular food using either pressure or water-bath canning.
Guideline to follow for the water- bath canning workshop is to allow: a. approximately 1 to 1.5 hours for the first part of the educational
component and supplemental activities; b. 3 to 3.5 hours for the hands-on-canning portion; and c. 30 minutes for the remainder of the slide
presentation, questions, clean up and review.
Gas stoves work better for your canning workshops but you can use electric stoves as well. Smooth cook -tops are not recommended
kitchen that has a water supply, sink and plenty of counter space to accommodate the hands-on activity.
Keep your class size manageable (15 to 25 participants)
The Curriculum combines the delivery of new information with practical opportunitie s to apply the knowledge.
Activities Introduction
Activity
Have each participant introduce themselves and relate their experiences with canning and why they are interested in taking th e class.

Regardless of experience levels of participants, reassure everyone that this class is appropriate for all levels.
Jars Pass around examples of a commercial glass jar (mayonnaise, peanut butter or spaghetti sauce), a regular canning jar a nd canning lids.
Have participants compare the width of the sealing surfaces with the width of the sealing compound on the lid. Point out that many commercial
products previously packaged in glass jars are now plastic.
Utensil Kit Show kit contents; all tools will be used during the hands-on activity.
Filling Jars Have several practice jars with lids available for participants to practice “finger tip tight .
Raw Pack Hot Pack This slide is animated. Let participants guess the type of pack indicated by each picture. Mouse click ag ain, and you will
be able to see the titles of the picture.
Let’s Review the Steps Let the participants identify the steps and describe how the tools are used.
Identifying Parts Set up stations around the room with disassembled pressure canners available for inspection at each stati on. Divide
participants into small groups and hand out a copy of Presto’s Parts of a Pressure Canner handout. Ask the small groups to id entify each part on
the list. If you have a combination of weighted gauge and dial gauge canners, rotate the groups so that ever yone has a chance to inspect both
kinds of canners.
Provide each participant a pipe cleaner to use for checking vent pipes.
Jams and Jellies:
Write the following questions on a flip chart.
 What’s your favorite jam, jelly, etc.?
 What questions do you have about making jams and jellies?
 When making jams and jellies what problems have you experienced?
 What do you hope to learn today?
Take a few minutes to discuss participants’ responses.
Jellied Products:
Provide six samples of jellied products such as jelly, jam, marmalade, fruit butter, and preserves to taste and identify.
You may want to include one sugar-free product for comparison.
Have participants do a blind taste test.
List all the sample products on a flip chart and have participants identify each.
Testing for Seals:
Have some sealed and unsealed jars of food.
Let participants practice checking for seals.
What to Do…? Solutions to many of the common problems.
List a variety of problems encountered when making jellied products on index cards.
Hand out one card to each person and ask them to research the problem, the causes and the remedies.
This can be done individually and/or in small groups.
Have everyone report their findings to the entire group.
This exercise can help participants become more familiar with the contents of their r esource book.

Scenarios:
Write the following scenarios on index cards and ask for volunteers to read each one.
After reading aloud, ask participants to spend about 3-5 minutes discussing with the person next to them what was done correctly/incorrectly
and how the problem can be remedied, if necessary. Share responses.
1. Auntie is preparing her famous apple jelly recipe. She pours the jelly into 6 sterilized jars, using all recommended canning procedures.
She has enough left over for an additional jar. She washes a new jar in hot soapy water and pours the rest of the jelly into the jar. She
has just enough jelly for the additional jar, leaving ¼ inch headspace. The processing time for this recipe is 12 minutes. Is Auntie’s last
jar of jelly safe to eat? Why or why not?
(Answer: Yes, it is safe to eat. The jar was washed according to recommendations and the processing time is greater than 10 m inutes so the jar
will be sterilized during the canning process.)
2. Mr. A has a large garden. This year, he has a bumper crop of green beans and today he has decided to can a dozen pint jars of beans . He
blanches his beans and pours them into 7 pint jars in his water-bath canner. He sets the timer for 40 minutes. Is he following the correct
procedure? Why or why not?
(Answer: No, he is not following the correct procedure and his beans will not be safe to eat. Beans are a low -acid food and MUST be canned in
the pressure canner. If he followed a tested recipe, it would specify that green beans must be pressure canned.)
3. S is diabetic. She has decided to make strawberry jam using her own recipe that requires half of the sugar of the recipe from S o Easy to
Preserve, which calls for only sugar and strawberries. She is freezing her jam. Will the product be safe? What might you reco mmend as
an alternative to S’s method?
(Answer: As long as S freezes her jam, it will be safe to eat; however, the jam will most likely be ver y runny because sugar is a necessary part
of the gelling process. If S wants to reduce the sugar in her jam, she could use a recipe for strawberry jam with pectin and artificial sweetener.)
Summary:
Major food preservation methods and their relationship to the conditions that encourage or inhibit growth of microorganisms.
Students will discuss the principles of food microbiology.
Why Preserve Food? -
Instructional Procedures:
The students will participate in a Pre-assessment to determine their current knowledge about food preservation and production by interviewing
at least five students in class concerning home vegetable gardening and home food storage using the questions. Discuss the findings of the
interviews as a class.
Canning:
The students will complete the Food Preservation - Canning, Introduction, and Basic Information worksheet utilizing a textbook and/or teacher
discussion.
Proper Sanitation and Control of Microorganisms in Food Preservation.
Have groups of students summarize the presentation by making a chart showing specific steps taken to control microorganisms in food
preservation and consequences which would occur if these steps were not followed.
The students will watch a demonstration on blanching vegetables and take notes on the proce dure. Vegetables must be blanched to destroy
enzymes that deteriorate the quality of vegetables-frozen or canned.
Page 23 of 93
Kimmy’s Vocational Training Institute, House No.1, Gulistan Colony, College Road, Abbottabad Cantt. Sardar Taimur Hyat -Khan
The students will watch a demonstration on treating fruit with an antioxidant to prevent enzyme deterioration.
The students will participate in a canning lab to practice proper canning methods using fruit(s) in season. (See FOOD PRESERVATION -
CANNING.)
The students will participate in a lab illustrating that acids are a factor in inhibiting growth of microorganisms.
CAN whole tomatoes. Refer to PREPARING AND PROCESSING TOMATOES. The tomatoes can be used in lasagna or another recipe
during the course.
OR
CAN USDA SALSA - HOT TOMATO-PEPPER SAUCE. A pint of salsa could be given to each student to take home if he/she want to bring
an empty canning jar from home. Or, it can also be utilized in a recipe later in the course. FREEZING:
The teacher will discuss the worksheet on FOOD PRESERVATION - FREEZING, INTRODUCTION AND BASIC INFORMATION as the
students complete it. The students will participate in a lab illustrating that temperature is a way of inhibiting growth of microorganisms.
FREEZE peaches, apples, strawberries (whichever is in season). The peaches or apples can be used in pie later in the course. The peaches or
apples could also be canned. Refer to FOOD PRESERVATION - FREEZING.
As a homework assignment, prepare a FREEZER STORAGE CHART to show what is put into your freezer, when it was put in, and the date
by which it should be removed. Post the chart by the freezer and encourage everyone to help keep the chart up to date.
NOTE TO TEACHER: Options 11-13 are from a Jam and Jelly Unit by MCP Pectin as a way to demonstrate that sugar inhibits the growth of
microorganisms.
The students will complete the FOOD PRESERVATION - JAMS AND JELLIES worksheet as the teacher discusses INTRODUCTION AND
BASIC INFORMATION ON FREEZER JAMS AND JELLIES.
During the lecture, the teacher may wish to emphasize the BULLETIN BOARD IDEA (POSTER).
Other teacher resources for the making of jams and jellies included in the guide are:
 ADDITIONAL POINTS TO EMPHASIZE
 JAM AND JELLY INGREDIENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COOKED AND UNCOOKED (FREEZER) JAMS AND JELLIES The teacher will demonstrate a freezer jam
recipe. For content, refer to:
o PREPARATION OF FREEZER JAMS AND JELLIES
o PREPARATION STEPS FOR FREEZER METHODS
Recipes to choose from include:
 APRICOT-PINEAPPLE FREEZER JAM
 BLUEBERRY-PEACH FREEZER JAM
 STRAWBERRY-PEACH-KIWI FREEZER JAM

NOTE TO TEACHER: If any jams or jellies form crystals, save the product for a result demonstration to be used in the unit on
CRYSTALLIZATION in this guide.
The students will prepare one cooked jam or jelly recipe and an uncooked jam or jelly recipe in a lab experience.
Recipes to choose from include:
 STRAWBERRY JAM
 PEACH JAM
 GRAPE JELLY
 ORANGE JELLY
After the recipes are completed, properly store the jams and jellies to cool. They will be compared and evaluated in a later class time. Afte r the
teacher reviews how to use COMPARISON SCORECARD, the students will complete their scorecard.
The students will taste test their uncooked jams and jellies using a bread product (toast, hot bread, etc). They will then complete SCORE
YOUR JAM and SCORE YOUR JELLY worksheets. The remainder of the jam and/or jelly can then be utilized for other food classes d uring
the course.
As class time permits, option 13 can be repeated using different recipes. DRYING
The students will participate in a lab illustrating that water and moisture removal are factors to inhibit growth of microorg anisms.
DRY fruit leather. Refer to FRUIT DRYING.
In groups of four, the students will brainstorm on paper the advantages and disadvantages of each preservation method. The students will share
the lists with the class and check against resources. Ask students if there may be circumstances under which a method mi ght be impossible or
impractical to use.
NOTE TO TEACHER: Be sure that the students connect preservation methods to microorganisms control.
Upon completion of this unit on food preservation, the students will take a UNIT TEST discussing the common problems of canning, their
causes, and solutions. The teacher will discuss the test with the students.

Moisture and temperature are the two critical factors in optimal food storage.
Moisture - the humidity in the storage environment should be low. If dried foods pick up moisture from the storage area, molds and bacteria
can grow. This can lead to spoilage and illness. Moisture can also lead to the breakdown of some packaging materials (paper d egradation and
metal rusting). In areas of high environmental humidit y a dehumidifier may be needed.
Temperature - The optimal temperature range is in the cool to moderate range, approximately 40 - 70 degrees F. Research at Brigham Young
University (Ref. 1.) on long term storage has shown that wheat retained an acceptable qu ality for 25 years stored cold (basement) and only 5
years stored hot (garage or attic). Grain germination rates will decline and vitamin breakdown rates in all stored foods will increase as the
temperature increases. Canned foods should not be allowed to freeze. Freezing will bulge cans and may cause seam failures leading to a
potential for foodborne illness. Dry foods can freeze without concern.
Other factors - Direct sunlight is detrimental to foods. It can speed deterioration of both the food and the packaging. The heat from sunlight can
also speed deterioration. Always store foods off the floor. Flooring materials, especially concrete can leech chemicals into stored foods. These
chemicals can pass through plastics and can cause rust to form on metal.
