Ever wonder what methods and techniques are used to investigate crimes? Then this class is for you! In this course, students will learn the importance of observation, the science behind forensics, the techniques used to solve crimes, and how to apply that to gathering clues and solving mysteries. This course will give students a solid understanding of the techniques used in forensic science to solve crimes. ***Discretionary Note:*** Topics in forensic science can be of a sensitive nature, such as abuse/torture of humans or animals, murder, death, blood, etc. Crime scene photographs used as teaching aids in this class may include images of blood, deceased bodies, and severe trauma. Police reports may include profanity or derogatory language as quoted by witnesses or suspects. These will be kept to a minimum.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Maestría en Educación desde Strayer University
I majored in engineering before acquiring my bachelor’s of science in Computer Science (lots of science classes!) and later earned a Master’s Degree in Education. I have 14+ years of teaching many subjects and ages; however, for the past 8 years, I teach ages 12+ and mostly high school classes. At the high school level, I have taught chemistry, physics, forensic science throughout the past 8 years. I enjoy teach forensics and creating activities that can be easily and affordably done to supplement lectures.
