equipment
• Review the observation checklist/decision making rules to know what is
expected of you. You may refer to the observation checklist for
observation based assessments at any stage prior to the
commencement of your assessment. You must not refer to this checklist
whilst you are being assessed
• Your assessor will also explain to you the observation process prior to the
assessment
Required Each assessment task in this assessment tool outlines specific resources that
resources the student must have access to as part of the assessment process.
Assessors must ensure that students have appropriate access to these
resources before any assessment is conducted.
Reasonable Acumen Education enables reasonable adjustments to be made to
adjustment assessment procedures for students with special needs, such as people with
disabilities or with language or literacy difficulties. Assessing knowledge is
usually assessed through written or oral, short-answer tests where assessors
seek to determine the extent of the student’s knowledge.
Following are some of the examples of adjustments that can be made for
the students:
• Ask questions orally instead of in a written format
• Provide equipment such as text enlargers, image enhancers, and voice
recorders.
• Give the student more time to complete the assessment;, allocate a
different time for completion of the assessment;
• Offer a separate, quiet room.
• Modifying or providing equipment
• Adapting delivery strategies
• Ensuring that course activities are sufficiently flexible, providing
additional support to student where necessary
• Customising resources and activities within the training package or
accredited course
• Monitoring the adjustments to ensure student needs continue to be
met
Plagiarism Acumen education takes a systemic approach to the treatment of
policy plagiarism in academic work. The policy is intended to promote honesty in
learning and assessment and respect for the work of others. Contravention
of this policy will result in students being penalized.
Please read the plagiarism policy available in your student handbook and
to be aware of the consequences and to understand your rights and
responsibilities.
Academic • Where a student wishes to appeal an assessment they are required to

-Daily
5 Briefly describe the following diets in the chart below, what foods they can eat and
why:
Diet Foods that can be eaten Why
Gluten free any food that doesn't have gluten - coeliac disease
Immume system
7a What is meant by the term drug food interaction? Why is it important to follow
instructions from a customer if they can’t eat a certain food due to medication they
take?(60-80 words)
A drug-food interaction occurs when your food and medicine interfere with one another.
Interactions can happen with both prescription and over-the-counter medicines. These
include antacids, vitamins, and iron pills. Not all medicines are affected by food. Some,
though, are affected by what you eat or when you eat it. Taking a medicine at the same time
you eat can cause your body not to absorb the medicine. Or certain foods may delay or
decrease the absorption of the drug. For example, you should not combine dairy and
antibiotics. This is why some medicines should be taken on an empty stomach (1 hour before
eating or 2 hours after eating).
Some medicines cannot be taken with certain types of food. The food can cause a reaction
that changes the effect of the medicine. It also can create or heighten side effects. An
example of this is having grapefruit or grapefruit juice with cholesterol drugs. If you take an
ACE inhibitor, you should avoid foods high in potassium, such as bananas.
On the other hand, some medicines are easier to handle when taken with food. If you don’t
take them with food, you may feel nauseous or dizzy. This is often the case with some
antibiotics.
7b Provide a description for the following ingredients. Which allergic reactions can these
ingredients cause?
Gluten protein component in grain.
Eg. wheat, rye, Barley
- coeliac disease
-Gluten in tolerance
Fish & shell fish Shellfish allergies are most often the immune system's
response to a protein found in shellfish muscles called
tropomyosin. Antibodies trigger the release of chemicals
such as histamines to attack the tropomyosin. The
histamine release leads to a number of symptoms that can
range from mild to life-threatening.
Gluten intolerance
Lactose intolerance
Why is important that you don’t serve someone nuts if they have mentioned they are
9
allergic to them? (40-50 words)
As a food handler it is your responsibility. otherwise if they had them they might get severely
allergic and might died or have permanent disabilities.
if not they might take legal action against you and the company.
11 What are the symptoms that can determine an allergic reaction from food? List 5.
-Swelling
-wheezing
-Illness
-Headaches
-Face swelling
-Tightening in breath
13 Describe the following terms in relation to cultural diets: (30-40 words each)
Hindu The majority of Hindus are lacto-vegetarian (avoiding meat and eggs),
although some may eat lamb, chicken or fish. Beef is always avoided
because the cow is considered a holy animal, but dairy products are eaten.
Vegetarian the practice of abstaining from the consumption of meat (red meat, poultry,
seafood, and the flesh of any other animal), and may also include abstention
from by-products of animal slaughter
Vegan one thing all vegans have in common is a plant-based diet avoiding all
animal foods such as meat (including fish, shellfish and insects), dairy, eggs
and honey - as well as avoiding animal-derived materials, products tested on
animals and places that use animals for entertainment.

the modern menu: (10-20 words)
people are mostly going for the healthy foods and drinks these days, so its important to have
different selections of healthy foods and drinks to select from.
17 Why is it important to eat a balanced diet including lots of fruit and vegetables? What
can be the consequences of eating a poor diet?(80-100 words)
A well-balanced diet provides important vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to keep the body

21b What are the dietary requirements of children in Australia? Briefly describe in 40-60
words.
22 A pork rib loin costs $ 8.00 per kg bone in. It takes 20 minutes to trim it and the
trimming loss is 60% (60% fat and bones with 40% meat left). You serve 200g per serve
to the customer. You can purchase a kg of pork steaks (no bone) for $12.00 per kg.
1kg = 1000g = $8
60% waste= 600g
40% quality meat=400g/200=2 portions
$8/2=$4 per person
-1kg= 1000g=$12
100% quality meat = 1000g= 5 portions (1000/200=5)
12/5= 2.40 per person
so its so cheap to buy steak than the rib lion.

The macrobiotic diet was developed in the 1920s by a Japanese philosopher called George
Ohsawa. He believed that by eating a simple, healthy diet, we could live in harmony with
nature. He also believed that his macrobiotic diet could cure cancer and other serious
illnesses.
The macrobiotic diet aims to avoid foods containing toxins. Many people follow a completely
vegan diet with no dairy products or meats. But some people eat small amounts of organic
fish and meat.
There is no scientific evidence that the macrobiotic diet treats or cures cancer.
34 List 4 different types of customer groups that have a special dietary requirement.
Lactose Free
Gluten Free
Vegetarian
Halal
Kosher
35 How do you assess the dietary trends and regimes for contemporary diets? 80-100
words.
Weight Loss Diets : Less intake of Food and alcohol, reduced fat intake
Macrobiotic Diet : Brown Rice & Water, originated from Zen buddhisum in Japan, when
taking long period iron deficiency and calcium deficiency

figure
and also diets that are related to some complications that people have due to their illnesses
36 What are the key health and legal consequences of failing to address special
requirements?60-80 words
Failing to address a customer's allergies can lead to a civil lawsuit. Once the customer
informs you, whether in written form or verbally, of his/her allergies, you are now legally
accountable for using this information for future decisions. For example, if you are a waiter
and a customer informs you before ordering that he is allergic to shrimp, you are accountable
for telling the customer which dishes on the menu have shrimp. It is also your duty to inform
the chef or line cook of the customer's allergies if you are not familiar with the ingredients of
the dish.
37 Write special dietary requirements and dish name for the following groups

38 What are the food labelling requirements for special dietary menus?
The NEW labeling requirements allow consumers to make informed choices about
the food they buy. Changes such as; allergen labeling which is vital to those
with allergies to foods and mandatory nutrition information which provides
important nutritional information to consumers. The customer has the right to
know what the ingredients are in a particular food. The main general labeling
requirements cover:
prescribed name;
legibility requirements;
food recall information;
ingredient listing;
date marking;
nutrition labeling;
percentage labeling;
direction for use and storage;
country of origin;
39 What is the role of good nutrition in avoiding dietary diseases? Your brief response
should be in relation to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and cancer.
Recommendations were made to help prevent death and disability from major nutrition-
related chronic diseases. These population nutrient intake and physical activity goals should
contribute in the development of regional strategies and national guidelines to reduce the
burden of disease related to obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, several forms of
cancer, osteoporosis and dental disease. They are based on the examination and analysis of
the best available evidence and the collective judgment of a group of experts representing
the global scope of WHO’s and FAO’s mandate.
Key findings include:
Obesity:the imbalance between declining energy expenditure due to physical inactivity and
high energy in the diet (excess calories whether from sugar, starches or fat) is the main
determinant of the obesity epidemic. Increasing physical activity, plus reducing intakes of
foods high in fat and foods and drinks high in sugars, can prevent unhealthy weight gain.
Taking these simple goals to concrete action requires major social and environmental
changes in order to effectively promote and support healthier choices at the individual level.
Diabetes:excess weight gain, overweight and obesity and physical inactivity account for the
escalating rates of type 2 diabetes, worldwide. Diabetes leads to increased risk of heart
disease, kidney disease, stroke and infections. Increased physical activity and maintaining a
healthy weight play critical roles in the prevention and treatment of diabetes.
Cardiovascular diseases:cardiovascular diseases, the major killers worldwide, are to a great
extent due to unbalanced diets and physical inactivity. Risk of their main forms, heart disease
and stroke, is reduced by eating less saturated and trans fats, and sufficient amounts of (n-3
and n-6) polyunsaturated fats, fruits and vegetables and less salt, as well as by physical
activity and controlling weight. Reduction of salt intake helps reduce blood pressure, a major
cause of cardiovascular diseases.
Cancer:tobacco is the number one cause of cancer, but dietary factors contribute significantly
to some types of cancer. Maintaining a healthy weight will reduce the risk for cancers of the
esophagus, colorectum, breast, endometrium and kidney. Limiting alcohol intake will reduce
risk for cancers of the mouth, throat, oesophagus, liver and breast. Ensuring an adequate
intake of fruit and vegetables should further reduce risk for oral cavity, oesophagus, stomach
and colorectal cancer.
Osteoporosis and bone fractures: fragility fractures are a problem of older people. Adequate
intakes of calcium (500 mg per day or more) and of vitamin D in populations with high
osteoporosis rates helps to reduce fracture risk, so does sun exposure and physical activity
to strengthen bones and muscles.
