This Introduction to Forensic Science course is the perfect way to introduce the main ideas of forensic science to any high school junior or senior. 

In this asynchronous 8-week course, students will learn the basics of forensic science. This introduction course will cover the history of forensic science, crime scene processing, and death investigations (pathology and role of the Medical Examiner). This class is unique because each lesson includes a famous case study, so the students will be engaged as the mysteries unfold.

The course is structured to be asynchronous, so the students will be guided through a lesson, then they will have assignments to work on for the next class. There is a variety of lecture videos, virtual activities, and hands-on activities they will complete at home. 

I will teach utilizing my many best practices learned in my time teaching high school forensic science, so I am confident your student will love this class and be inspired to continue studying this interesting and interdisciplinary course.

The focus of the course will be to ask the question, "What is justice?" and "How do we know if justice has been served?" which engages the students to think deeply and critically about how our criminal justice system is constantly being revised to reflect the newer understandings and goals of our society.

Metas de aprendizaje

The students will be able to define "Forensic Science."  The students will be able to explain major events that demonstrated an early understanding of forensics.

The students will be able to identify types of evidence allowed into the court of law. The students will be able to identify the major laws that determine the admissibility of evidence into the court of law.

Orientación para padres

This course contains mature content, including discussions of death, death investigations, and case studies involving criminal activity and adult themes. Please note that this course may not be suitable for all audiences.

Requisitos previos

This class builds upon fundamental science disciplines such as biology and chemistry. This is a great class to take after a prior or concurrent class in U.S. Government or U.S. History, given the interdisciplinary nature of the course.

Lista de útiles escolares

Each week, there will be printable resources, so a printer is highly recommended. All assignments will be given a virtual or printable option, so I recommend printing and completing your work in a three-ring binder for storage and organization. 

All assignments can be completed digitally, if that is preferred.
