Welcome! Thank you for your interest in my project!
Apple Antics is designed to be a Forensic Science Activity for middle school students. Using handwriting analysis techniques and ink analysis (paper chromatography), students will determine which suspect stole the apple off the teacher's desk at lunch.Â
The purpose of the project is to better understand how a hands-on forensic activity impacts a student's science identity. My hypothesis is that forensic science is a lens for engagement in science and teaching critical thinking.
Please explore the rest of the site and the resources I have created towards this project.
