2 Forensic Science PHILOSOPHY Forensic Science is designed to introduce students to the scientific methods used to answer legal questions and to solve crimes. As a half-year elective, this course is developed to meet the needs of diverse learners. Content includes crime scene investigation, types of evidence, collection of physical evidence, identifying individuals using evidence, entomology and bringing evidence to court. A variety of instructional strategies will be used including, textbook reading, PowerPoint presentations, videos, small and large group discussion, guest speakers, hands-on activities, labs, projects and internet research. Students will be assessed both formally in informally. Upon successful completion of the course, students will understand the science behind this popular field. COURSE OUTLINE: The following curriculum areas and instructional activities should be utilized during the course of study: Standard 5.1 Science Practices A. Understand Scientific Explanations 1. Refine interrelationships among concepts and patterns of evidence found in different central scientific explanations. 2. Develop and use mathematical, physical, and computational tools to build evidencebased models and to pose theories. 3. Use scientific principles and theories to build and refine standards for data collection, posing controls, and presenting evidence. Textbook reading Video PowerPoint Notes Lab Activity Do Nows Standard 5.1 B. Generate Scientific Evidence Through Active Investigations 1. Design investigations, collect evidence, analyze data, and evaluate evidence to determine measures of central tendencies, causal/correlational relationships, and anomalous data. 2. Build, refine, and represent evidencebased models using mathematical, physical, and computational tools. 3. Revise predictions and explanations using evidence, and connect PowerPoint Notes Lab Activity Construct tables and graphs Group Discussion Journal Video Concept Mapping Adopted September 21, 2010 Page 2
3 explanations/arguments to established scientific knowledge, models, and theories. 4. Develop quality controls to examine data sets and to examine evidence as a means of generating and reviewing explanations. Standard 5.1 C. Reflect on Scientific Knowledge 1. Reflect on and revise understandings as new evidence emerges. 2. Use data representations and new models to revise predictions and explanations. 3. Consider alternative theories to interpret and evaluate evidence-based arguments. Standard 5.1 D. Participate Productively in Science 1. Engage in multiple forms of discussion in order to process, make sense of, and learn from others ideas, observations, and experiences. 2. Represent ideas using literal representations, such as graphs, tables, journals, concept maps, and diagrams. Journal reflections Group discussion Create tables and graphs Concept mapping K-W-L charts Group lab exercises Guest speakers from various professionals in the field followed by discussion and reflection Concept mapping Journal PowerPoint presentations Standard 5.2 Physical Science E. Forces and Motion 1. Compare the calculated and measured speed, average speed, and acceleration of an object in motion, and account for differences that may exist between calculated and measured values. 2. Measure and describe the relationship between the force acting on an object and the resulting acceleration. Analyze graphs Lab activity Video Teacher demonstration Textbook reading Standard 6.3 Active Citizenship in the 21 st Century D. History, Culture, and Perspectives 1. Analyze current laws involving individual rights and national security, and evaluate how the law might be applied to a current Textbook reading Case Study Role Play Adopted September 21, 2010 Page 3
4 case study that cites a violation of an individual s constitutional rights. Guest Speaker Mock Trial (Interdisciplinary Unit) Journal Reflection Video Standard st Century Life and Career Skills A. Critical Thinking and Problem solving 1. Apply critical thinking and problem-solving strategies during structures learning experiences 2. Participate in online strategy and planning sessions for course-based, school-based, or outside projects. Standard 9.1 B. Creativity and Innovation 1. Present resources and data in a format that effectively communicates the meaning of the data and its implications for solving problems, using multiple perspectives. 2. Assist in the development of innovative solutions to an onsite problem by incorporating multiple perspectives and applying effective problem-solving strategies during structured learning experiences, service learning, or volunteering. Standard 9.1 C. Collaboration, Teamwork, and Leadership 1. Demonstrate leadership and collaborative skills when participating in online learning communities and structured learning experiences. 2. Assume a leadership position by guiding the thinking of peers in a direction that leads to successful completion of a challenging task or project. Research Project Mock Trial (Interdisciplinary Unit) Group discussion PowerPoint presentation Guest Speaker Journal Group Discussion Group Discussion Lab activity Adopted September 21, 2010 Page 4
5 INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES Strategies to Accommodate Gifted and Talented Students Pair Gifted & Talented students with other students to spark dialogue and diverse viewpoints. Request Gifted & Talented students to model and verbalize processes used to perform creative problem-solving. Invoke multiple intelligences and Bloom s Revised Taxonomy in higher-ordered thinking skills in all areas of curriculum. Vary instructional groupings. Invoke real life problems that students can identify with. Explore curriculum objectives in greater depth. Provide ample examples. Invoke technological resources. Invoke multi-media resources. Strategies to Accommodate English Language Learners Provide additional instructions. Extend time for assignment completion. Shorten assignments Provide repeated reviews and drills using varied teaching strategies. Read directions, text to students as needed. Note taking assistance Reading strategies (peer, guided, small group) Provide outlines Increase verbal response time/opportunity to respond orally. Encourage student to verbalize steps needed to complete task to check understanding. Have the students do hands-on activities. Vary instructional grouping (individual, pair and small groups) Pair ELL students with bilingual speakers. Model and verbalize processes used to solve problems. Use visual diagrams such as pictures, guess and check and/or tables. Role play and act out. Be aware of differences in algorithms (Mathematics). Suggested activities to differentiate instruction: Incorporate flashcards, note outlines, review guides Use different tactile materials for activities Use picture/power point presentations to engage learners Model appropriate behavior Adopted September 21, 2010 Page 5
6 Demonstrate what is expected Break problems into smaller parts and outline possible solutions Tell the students what is expected before the task is given Make sure the student is focused on the task at hand Give multiple completion options for assignments. Give students a choice of projects Use partners and small groups MATERIALS/ENVIRONMENT Use assignments, notebooks and prompts. Help student keep a journal for reflections, review, questions Underline key words/phrases in directions, charts, etc. Use hands-on materials for concrete development. ASSESSMENTS Modified tests Modified test/alternative assessments Ex. True/False, fill in the blanks, matching, short essay. Allow modifications of time, scheduling or administration of testing. Read directions, test to students as needed. Grade on effort, participation and improvement. Adopted September 21, 2010 Page 6
