Steak Wellness
So before we start with the actual process of cooking a steak let us first learn the different types of wellness it can be cooked. After going through the infographic there will be a fill-in-the-blank quiz to grade understanding.
So now that you have successfully completed the fill-in-the-blanks let us move onto ingredients.

Application
Learners after watching the video will be required to complete an assessment task of cooking a mushroom steak dinner and presenting it. As the presentation suggests, 3 minutes each side of the steak will give a medium rare wellness. Please ensure to add or minus 30 seconds each for different steak wellnesses. For example, medium will be 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
Please ensure to have understood the video before starting your attempt (Steaks are not cheap!).
The following rubric will be used to grade the final product. It will be graded on accuracy of steak wellness in this case every steak must be cooked medium rare as it is the most popular wellness there is. In addition, also aesthetics of how the plating is when the final product is complete.

Reflection
Based on the steak wellness chart how far away were you from cooking a perfect medium rare steak? Did you char the onions before they became caramelized? Were the mushrooms cut perfectly similar in thickness and size?
Theories and Principles
We tried to remove any useless information or repetitive information by incorporating the redundancy principle to keep the blog on point. We moved forward by acknowledging the coherence principle which goes from one step to another to eep things organized. Both these steps together were used to help reduce any extraneous cognitive load that might occur by giving too much information all at once. We also used the signalling principle when we added headers to signal ingredients, cooking, etc. to show what step we were on. The dual coding theory was also put into consideration when we used videos, text, pictures to help the learner absorb more information.
