Design and technology: food
'Design and technology: food' is a full colour textbook which provides full coverage of the design and technology requirements for Key Stage 4/GCSE within the focus area of food. It looks at the way new products are designed and developed within the industry, using a range of original case studies based on real industrial contexts.
The authors relate the activities that students will be involved in to industrial practices. There are case studies based around three companies: Weetabix, Pret A Manger (a chain of shops selling sandwiches) and Cryovac (a company which manufactures plastics for food products). The book includes focused practical tasks, design and make assignments and activities in which students disassemble and evaluate familiar products.
