Our learning management system received substantial upgrades, including interactive recipe calculators, enhanced video playback controls for technique review, and progress-tracking tools. Students can now bookmark specific cooking techniques, curate personal recipe collections, and access supplementary reading materials directly within their course modules.

We introduced a more comprehensive assessment approach that evaluates both technical skills and creative application. Students demonstrate their understanding through hands-on cooking sessions, recipe adaptation exercises, and dish presentations that illustrate their grasp of cultural cooking principles learned throughout the program.
