Collaborating with local police departments, Ms. Taylor and Ms. Martin design a unit on forensic science to increase their students’ problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. Students become familiar with the technology crime scene investigators use to analyze forensic evidence. At a simulated crime scene, students analyze fingerprints, DNA, fiber samples, and bloodstain patterns.
