Name of Learning Chan Jiexin Melissa Cross-checker

Facilitator: (Learning Facilitator):
Project Category: Others If you have chosen others, Cultural and Language
please specify: Development

What do I already know/do in this area?

Closing gaps &
- Basic knowledge about common ingredients used in Korean food, examples are
knowledge chili pepper paste, Soybean paste, Soy sauce, Garlic, Ginger and Scallions
- Basic knowledge about the types of Korean food, examples are bulgogi,
samgyeopsal, japchae, kimchi, tteokkbokki and bibimbap
- Basic recording and filming
- South Korean food preparation, such as how to prepare basic dishes like
bibimbap.
- Basic cooking skills, like stir-frying, chopping, steaming and seasoning.

What new knowledge & skills will I need to complete this project?
New knowledge needed:
- More in-depth understanding about the methods to prepare Korean Food
- Different regions in Korea and how it is linked to the food
- The reasons behind the choice of ingredients
New Skills needed:
- How to edit and create videos
- How to create a website using Google Sites
- More methods of cooking. I would like to learn more on stewing, grilling, pan-
frying and marinating, which are common methods in preparing South Korean
food

What possible challenges would I need to overcome for my learning project?

- Filming a video while cooking
- Not knowing whether the taste of the food I prepared is like the authentic ones
due to the lack of access to authentic Korean cooking in real life due to the
current COVID-19 situation. Thus, it is hard to find someone that is experienced
in preparing Korean food
- Keeping to all the deadlines that are set, examples would be the submission of
Learning Logs and updating the E-Portfolio
- Balancing between this project and other projects in school
- Sticking to the schedule for researching and preparing on the project while
finding time to study for other subjects
- Coordinating with my groupmate Jerlene in editing and updating the website
together as we might have different schedules and plan for our individual areas
of the projects
- Technical issues when building a website and editing videos
- Not managing to cook the food well
- Language barrier when dealing with information in Korean
