My Project

In my brand-new forensic science course, students will be investigating the smallest details to solve big mysteries. A digital microscope with a screen will allow the entire class to view evidence like hair, fibers, fingerprints, and more, together, in real time.

This technology will enhance collaboration, boost engagement, and make microscopic analysis accessible to every learner, including students with IEPs or visual challenges.

As a first-year forensic science teacher, this tool will be invaluable in building hands-on, interactive labs. Your support will help us bring science to life and empower students to think like real forensic investigators.
