Taylor’s Borderless Learning help culinary students to continue learning from home

Taylor’s University learned quickly how a global health crisis could impact in-person classes during the SARS epidemic in 2002. With this in mind, the university quickly adopted a Borderless Learning approach into its entire curriculum.

Taylor’s Borderless Learning approach features state-of-the-art equipment and features to help online classes run smoothly. Intrigued, I got to experience this first hand during Taylor’s Culinary Institute’s (TCI) Macaron Decorating Masterclass conducted by Chef Aaron Tang.

During the class, Chef Aaron controlled a mounted top view camera with zoom capabilities and conversed with students via a two-way headphone with microphone. Students attending the class were able to send in their questions via a chat box application in which Chef Aaron could view on a Smart TV.

The whole setup came complete with clear lighting which helped illuminate the demonstration table clearly for those at home.
