CSI Level I (Intro to Forensics: How STEM is used to Solve Crimes)
STEM principles relating to Forensics and solving Crime Scenes are explored. The Curriculum, labs and exercises will cover many topics on take and identify and collect fingerprints, learn how trigonometry is used in blood and bullet trajectory, each student will cast their own footprint, process a crime scene and so much more…. Current or former law enforcement Detectives will be teaching this class (7 hour class).
CSI Level II (Advanced Forensics: How STEM is used to Solve Crimes, part deux)
STEM principles relating to Forensics and solving Crime Scenes are explored. The curriculum, labs and exercises will cover many topics on roll and compare tire tracks to a casting, perform a glass density lab, extract DNA, examine real and counterfeit money, analyze impression of teeth via Odontology, determine and unknown powder, and so much more….Some of the building blocks from Level I class are used in this Level II class, although the Level I class is not prerequisite but encouraged. Current or former law enforcement Detectives will be teaching this class (7 hour class).
CSI Level III (The Last in the Trilogy: How STEM is used to Solve Crimes, act III) STEM principles relating to Forensics and solving Crime Scenes are explored. The curriculum, labs and exercises will cover many topics: use Mikrosil to lift fingerprints, spray Luminol to determine the presence of blood, determine via a 3D model the angle of blood spatter patterns using Trigonometry , learn about wave succession (entomology) by documenting insect larvae, examine bullet holes and defining the trajectory and flight path of the bullet, use side lighting with both white and UV lights, conducting witness interviews to determine who is exhibiting deceptive behavior, and so much more….Some of the building blocks from Level I and Level II classes are used in this Level III class, which are preferred prerequisites of this class. Current or former law enforcement Detectives will be teaching this class (15 hour class).
