What did you learn in the last unit (or the course as a whole) that fits into your broader career goals? What were your most interesting discoveries in this class? How did course content give you a new perspective, challenge your point of view, or introduce you to new techniques, skills, processes?
I learned how to design menus for children. I initially did not have an interest in this back. I have always wanted to work in a public school setting, but I found how much children should be served very interesting and surprising since I see children at the preschool I work at so much more than what is recommended. I enjoyed learning about playground safety because I never knew how much goes into designing a safe space for children to play outside. I find playgrounds to look boring and do not encourage risky play. I learned that it has to be that way because of safety regulations. Learning how to handle food safely is another area I found interesting. This is something I had never learned about, and it shows me just how hard our lunch employees work at our schools to make sure the food is safe for children. I discovered that I did not have a great grasp on nutrition. I feel a lot of people my age in college don't have a great grasp on it as well.
