My Project

I have a new class at our school under the criminal justice program, Crime Scene Investigation. I have acquired some equipment but I have nothing but a desk in my classroom. I need a space to put the equipment in and make it accessible for great hands-on instruction. We also need an area where we can learn to lift fingerprints and collect DNA samples. The students will also need a flat surface to place items that will be photographed as they learn crime scene photography. We will also use the tables to learn how to obtain tire and shoe impressions and how to preserve tool marks.
