Interpretation

The most important thing I gained in my service learning is learning to make different kinds of desserts. I also improved my plating skills a lot. Also, getting my toes in the water for culinary school. This is important because now I’m a little ahead if I ever go to culinary school in the future. This school also gave me the opportunity to further improve my skills there.

Applied

My service learning in CAI helped me answer my EQ by having me experience first hand how important each of my answers are. Communication and common practice were a little challenging when you are working with people that are knew to you or are older. Food presentation was the easiest because you wee basically independent on that. 

Service Learning

I am taking a basic baking class and a safety and sanitation class for my service learning. My hours for my baking class sums up to have about 100 hours. We've bake all sorts of desserts in class. I'm almost done with the photo slide that i will be posting up. We've had a substitute since December so our dishes have been random and not plated. I couldn't take pictures of them also but I logged them in. For my Safety and Sanitation class, I have about 70 hours in that class. It's a class that will get a SafeServ certificate. We just took the test yesterday and I hope I get really good results since it's a piece of cake. We learned the rules and regulations to be in the food industry. My classes will end the same time first semester ends. I'm planning to do more service learning, probably take a cake decorating class around my area.

The contact for my hours will be the office of my school:
