In the Classroom
If you and your students are studying the medieval and/or Renaissance period of time this is a nice addition to engage student interest. Think about having individuals, pairs, or small groups of students choose a recipe to create at home. Then ask them to photograph the steps in making the dish and the final product. Enhance learning by having students use the Free Online Photo Editor, <a href="/single.cfm?id=18341">reviewed here</a>, to label and put borders around the photos. Extend learning by having students put their photos into a class recipe book using Ourboox, <a href="/single.cfm?id=16998">reviewed here</a>.
