Do you see what I see?

January 28th: 1st meeting for the "Black Dirt, Bones & Burns Forensic Sleuthing Unit!!!!!

This week students were asked to define the term forensic science, make observations regarding an event that took place while they were involved in another activity, and consider the relative importance of eyewitness testimony and forensic evidence. Students discovered that being an eyewitness to an event that they do not see coming is more challenging than it might seem. Recalling facts that you weren't sure you were supposed to be watching for is not a simple task and as a real life eyewitness, you would feel tremendous pressure to get your facts "straight"!!!!
