This was one of our first larger projects in Forensics. So what we did is that we studied evidence and the different types of evidence when evaluating a crime scene. These types could be based of size, group, or if its an object or a track. So after learning about these different types, we made a mock crime scene to analyze. We would make a fake report of the crime scene. There was even an evidence log that we did to add further detail to the crime scene (here). We also did an electronic sketch of the crime scene while writing down in the evidence log. This project was a pretty fun way to learn about the process of analyzing crime scenes and how to write down evidence.

This was a 4 part project about the Atlanta Child Murders that happened from 1979 to 1981. The three parts were divided by the documentary that we watched along with it. (Part 1) (Part 2) and (Part 3). Part 1 started and we had to do a "Who What Where When and Why" paper for the first part of the documentary. This basically gave simple explanations of the who, what, where, when and why of the murders. Part 2 was a different type of assignment, being a "Know, Need to Know, and Learned" assignment. Before we watched part 2 of the assignment, we wrote down 5 things we knew about the murders. Then while watching, we wrote down 5 things that we needed to know and 5 things that we learned after watching. Part 3 was related to STEAM and trying to connect the different aspects of the trials and murders to different subject such as math, engineering, science and technology. The final part was doing a short presentation about the decision upon Wayne Williams (either Guilty or Innocent)
