法医学写真の基礎

In this 8-week interactive course, students will explore the world of forensic photography through engaging, hands-on learning designed specifically for ages 11–14. Each week, learners will attend a live Zoom class where they'll participate in a mix of instructor-led discussions, demonstrations, group Q&A sessions, and fun photography challenges. This course is part of our Junior Crime Scene Investigator Certificate program and provides an immersive introduction to crime scene documentation using photography.

🔍 What will be taught?
Students will learn how forensic photographers capture detailed images that are used in investigations and courtrooms. They’ll gain foundational knowledge of how to use a camera, apply lighting techniques, and photograph various types of evidence—just like professionals in the field.

📚 Topics We’ll Cover Include:
Basics of camera settings (ISO, aperture, shutter speed)

Lighting, angles, and focus for clarity

Crime scene photography procedures and logging

Macro photography for small evidence

Low-light and UV/infrared photography techniques

Photographing specific evidence types (fingerprints, footprints, weapons, etc.)

Assembling a photographic report

Simulated crime scene photography practice

🧭 How is the class structured?
Each week includes:

A live Zoom class (required) with real-time interaction and demonstrations

A hands-on assignment that applies the week’s lesson using a digital camera or smartphone

Ongoing access to the instructor for questions and support

Final week includes a mock crime scene challenge and showcase

👩‍🏫 How will I teach?
I use a blended teaching approach that balances visual learning, interactive discussions, and practical activities. Each class includes slides to explain key concepts, live camera demonstrations to show techniques, and open Q&A for deeper engagement. Students will also receive example photos and activity instructions after class to guide them during the week.

🎯 My teaching style:
Supportive and student-centered

Focused on skill-building and creativity

Encouraging curiosity and critical thinking

Adaptable to different learning speeds and styles

💬 How much will learners interact with me?
Students will interact with me directly each week during our live Zoom classes. I’ll:

Answer questions during Q&A sessions

Give individual feedback on weekly photo assignments

Offer guidance via private messages or class posts

Provide support during the final project and report-building

Students are welcome to reach out at any time with questions, ideas, or photo submissions. I aim to create a safe, encouraging space where learners can explore forensic science and photography with confidence and curiosity.
