Forensic Investigations: Using Science to Solve Crimes
Middle School Art
Description:
Forensic Investigations: Using Science to Solve Crimes- In this dynamic course, students dive into the fascinating world of forensic science, exploring “whodunit” mysteries through hands-on, investigative activities. Acting as crime scene investigators, students examine clues, analyze evidence, and interpret data to identify prime suspects in a series of fictional crime cases that mimic real-life middle school scenarios.
Students learn to differentiate between evidence and inference, and because there isn’t a single “correct” answer, they experience authentic scientific inquiry, formulating theories, observing, experimenting, and engaging in discussions to reach plausible solutions.
Course Highlights:
- Suitable as a supplement to a current science curriculum, a foundation for science fair projects, or an exciting summer school module
- Covers inquiry science, earth science, life science, and physical science concepts
- Strengthens skills in observation, classification, measurement, prediction, data interpretation, and conclusion-drawing
Perfect for curious minds, this course invites students to step into the shoes of real forensic scientists and solve cases by applying scientific reasoning, fostering both critical thinking and a love for discovery.
