If you're obsessed with true crime shows and podcasts, this course is your chance to step into the shoes of a forensic scientist! Over 10 weeks, you'll learn how real investigators use science to solve crimes, from collecting evidence at crime scenes to analyzing DNA and matching bullets to firearms. Using clips from popular true crime documentaries and podcasts, we’ll explore the fascinating world of forensic science through real-life mysteries. Each week, you’ll tackle a new forensic technique, like fingerprint analysis or blood spatter interpretation, with relevant case studies from iconic shows like Forensic Files and Criminal podcast episodes. You’ll work individually and in groups on fun activities that mimic real crime scene investigations, all while discussing how forensic experts crack the case. By the end of the course, you’ll apply everything you’ve learned to solve your own fictional case for a final project! What You’ll Learn: Crime scene investigation and evidence collection Analyzing fingerprints, DNA, and bloodstains Forensic anthropology, toxicology, and entomology How forensic scientists present evidence in court No prior experience in forensic science is required, but a background in Biology will be helpful. This is a rigorous scientific investigation course, made fun and relatable through clips from true crime media. Whether you dream of being a detective or just love solving mysteries, this course will show you the science behind the headlines.

レッスン 2:
Evidence Collection and Preservation
This week, students will learn about the various types of physical evidence—like fibers, hair, and trace materials—and how forensic experts collect and preserve them. We’ll cover techniques for gathering evidence without contamination and examine a cold case where new forensic methods were used to solve the mystery.
Key Concepts:
Types of evidence (physical, biological, trace)
Proper collection and preservation methods

レッスン 3:
Fingerprint Analysis
We’ll get hands-on this week with fingerprint analysis, studying the unique patterns that make everyone’s prints one of a kind. Students will practice identifying loops, whorls, and arches, and we’ll look at a true crime case where fingerprint evidence was the key to solving the crime.
Key Concepts:
Fingerprint patterns (loops, whorls, arches)
Fingerprint collection techniques

レッスン 4:
Blood Spatter and Bloodstain Pattern Analysis
Students will learn how blood behaves in different situations and how forensic scientists can use bloodstain patterns to reconstruct crime scenes. We’ll explore real cases where blood spatter analysis played a crucial role and get into the science of fluid dynamics.
Key Concepts:
Types of bloodstains (passive, projected, transfer)
Analyzing blood spatter patterns
Case Study: The Staircase 55 分のオンラインライブレッスン
