The Lecture   Update 22 Jan here http://semanticcuisine.yolasite.com/lecture-as-a-session.php

You have seen that I have been promoting participation.

You will need your project manual.

We will sit in groups.  Twenty-four of you gives three of eight or four groups of six depending on module subgroups already established.  Other group formulations are possible. 

In such groups and before the session, decide the topic[s] you hope to pursue during the session after the introduction.  Please email me if there are questions etc. 

With so many dimensions of the topic, we need to be sure that there is a reasonable student knowledge base before any  mini-project work is carried out.  If necessary, the session can be devoted to questions, answers and discussion.

Given that the knowledge base is reasonable, in outline, the session structure will take this broad  format:

Introduction    15 minutes to include questions and contributions

Mini-project    15 minutes  to include last minute Internet research arising from the inroduction

Feed-back        15 minutes  decide a spokesman well before the session starts

Conclusion       15 minutes  application of findings

The starting theme of our session is the two-dimensional culinary triangle.  During the introduction, we gather round the three-dimensional culinary pyramid.  Perhaps the "fourth dimension" will emerge. 

If it does, we will break new ground since the base of our pyramid is devoid of culinary semantic concepts.  [That phrase may sound grand but it includes words like roast and bake.]

More likely, however, is the result of your sub-group investigation into your topic of interest. That itself is pioneering. 

See you on Monday.
