In this course, students will search for evidence, gather clues, and discover how science can help solve a mystery. From dusting for fingerprints to analyzing handwriting, these easy, fun-filled classes give you a firsthand look at how detectives and forensic scientists use science to solve real-life crimes. Through a variety of easy, at-home experiments, students learn how to take and analyze fingerprints, identify blood and detect counterfeit bills, make a plaster cast of a shoe, Identify lip prints left on the glass, Examine hair and clothing fibers, and practice chemistry to identify mystery substances. Each class includes an introduction, a lecture that relates the science principles behind each case scenario to its use in solving real-life crimes, step-by-step simple experiments via slides, along with questions, and an explanation. Each case scenario includes observing the crime scene, gathering evidence, and analyzing the chemical, biological, and documentary clues. Some case scenarios may include a simple experiment that children can perform. 📌Week 1: Case #101 Forgery Teacher Lecture: Intro to Forensic Investigations and Forensic Vocabulary; Handwriting Characteristics Skill-building activity Student Investigation Handwriting Lab 📌Week 2: Case #102 Deception Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation Body Language Lab 📌Week 3: Case #103 Theft Teacher lecture Skill-building activity Student investigation Fingerprint Lab 📌Week 4: Case # 104 Criminal Mischief Teacher lecture Skill-building activity Student investigation Mammal Lab 📌Week 5: Case #105 Break-In Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation pH Analysis Lab 📌Week 6: Case #106 Burglary Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation DNA Lab 📌Week 7:First Case Assigned to Student Detectives: Isabella Case #900 Part 1 Case #107 Petty Larceny Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation Handwriting Lab 📌Week 8: First Case Assigned to Student Detectives: Isabella Part 2 Case #900 Case #108 Arson Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation Bite Mark Lab 📌Week 9: Case #109 Felony Teacher Lecture Skill-building Activity Student Investigation Lip Print Lab (Assign the Crime Case Part 1) 📌Week 10: Manhunt Case Solve the crime case 📌Material list be provided upon enrollment 📌In no time at all, you'll be thinking like a detective and performing experiments like a real forensic scientist! 📌Any learner intrigued by detective stories should find this class a source of simple science investigations.
