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 12 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). 

The course is structured to meet twice per week, where 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, discussion, 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 students will interact through lecture, games, Peardeck slides, discussions, and assignments. 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.

Otros detalles

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
Students should have experience in lower level high school courses, such as Biology and Chemistry. Forensic Science is an applied science, meaning, it builds upon previous scientific knowledge. The course features mature content.
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. 

There will be one project where students will create a diorama of a crime scene, so a shoebox is necessary, and it is encouraged students use a variety of craft items, such as play-doh, little dolls, little furniture (or can be created out of cardboard, etc). 

All other assignments can be completed digitally.
