We will allow food products, production, preparation and distribution to tell the human story, including the development of national, ethnic, and regional cuisines and how human interaction with each other and the environment helped develop those cuisines. Page 1 Rationale There is much rationale for this CAP. World history is a huge topic of study and using food to break it down is helpful. Food is a factor in so much of world history and is therefore a particularly fruitful area of interest. Food is also a natural topic of interest for most people, especially young people. It provides immediate motivation for study! It may also be used as a complementary course to Advanced Placement World History and Global History and Geography. Food Studies is a relatively new discipline, but it is growing by leaps and bounds and may be freely taken in many directions by teachers and students. This CAP will attempt to begin addressing some of the ways in which schools may develop this topic with students. Page 2 History Through Food Outline Food in History by Reay Tannahill is a good choice as a textbook for this course. It has a true historical format, and its periodization may be adapted to the Advanced Placement World History periodization, as well as the New York State Global History and Geography curriculum. Therefore, the outline for this course mirrors and adapts Tannahill’s outline, as follows: I. 10,000 BCE – 3,000 BCE: Prehistory A. Hunting and Gathering B. Development of Agriculture and the Domestication of Animals C. Milk and Honey II. 3,000 BCE – 1,000 CE: Ancient and Classical Civilizations A. Mesopotamia B. Egypt C. Greece D. Rome E. India F. China G. Central Asia H. The Arab World III. 1000-1492: Medieval Europe IV. 1492-1789 A. The New World and the Columbian Exchange B. The Impact of the Columbian Exchange on Europe, the Americas, Russia, China, India, and Africa C. Sugar and Slavery V. 1789-present A. The Industrial Revolution and Food Production, Distribution, Technology B. The Green Revolution C. The Environment and Famine D. Globalization and Food Today Each of the above units would examine world history and its impact on food production, preparation, and distribution at different times and in different places. Special attention would be paid to issues of gender, class, war, technology, religion, trade, national identity, and environmental concerns. Food samples would be enjoyed whenever possible. The following pages detail possible projects, movies, activities, and other assignments, as desired. Page 3 Introductory Lesson/Activity Topic: Keeping a Food Journal Skills/Objectives: Begin thinking about the foods we eat Keep a food journal Write a short reaction paper Discuss the role of food in our lives Assignment: Keep a personal food journal for a week, noting foods eaten, how prepared, where, when, why and with whom eaten, opinion of, and any other available information, such as place of origin, cost, fresh/frozen/fast food/home cooked. After the week, write a short reaction paper to your food experiences: Was there anything surprising, interesting, disturbing, positive, or negative? Share your experiences in class discussion: What is the role of food in our lives? Assessment: Informal assessment of class discussion Page 4 Themes in Food History Topic: Research a Theme in Food History Objectives/Skills: Research a theme in world history and connect it to food Write a paper of three to five pages discussing that theme in world history and its connection to food; footnotes and bibliography to be included Share findings with the class in a poster or PowerPoint presentation Resources/Technology Integration: Library Internet PowerPoint Assignment: Individuals or groups of two or three may do this project. World history themes to be considered include the following: War Gender Class Technology Migration Religion Manners/Etiquette Demography Environment Globalization Politics and Government Trade Students will obviously need to narrow these themes down to make them more manageable. For example, a cross-cultural examination of table manners might be interesting. Technological advances related to growing rice might be another topic. Different religious laws governing food consumption might be another thematic area of research. Assessment: Many excellent rubrics are available online.

After class has sampled the recipes, students will write a food review of one of them. Assessment: Many excellent rubrics are available online.

Assessment: Many excellent rubrics are available online. One great source is http://rubrics4teachers.com/ Page 7 Advertising Campaign for a Food Topic: Create an Advertising Campaign for a Food Product in History Skills/Objectives: Research an important food product in a particular time period Identify the food’s attributes Develop a multimedia advertising campaign for the food product Present the campaign to the class Resources/Technology Integration: Internet PowerPoint Art materials Assignment: Class will be divided into groups of three. Groups will conduct research on an important food product in a particular time period and create a multimedia advertising campaign for that product, making it relevant to the time period, audience, and place targeted by the campaign. Advertisements may be magazine ads, posters, radio ads, Internet ads, video, or whatever combination of THREE media chosen by the group. Assessment: Many excellent rubrics are available online.

Each group will research their region in terms of food products, methods of production and preparation, cultural and economic exchanges that may have led to a particular food or cuisine, and change over time. Time periods would be broken down according to class curriculum, found in outline. As research is completed, pictures of foods and methods of food production will be either created by hand or computer-generated. These visual representations will then be affixed to the largest classroom wall or bulletin board. This project may best be done over a semester’s time as the class moves ahead in historical study. Students may take a “museum tour” of the timeline and then compare and contrast the world regions’ food history as each time period is studied. At the end of the course, students may complete a total compare-andcontrast analysis of history through food. Assessment: Many excellent rubrics are available online.
