Overview

Session One will set the scene for the participants and they will have to read the interview statements, sort out the details, facts/opinions and decide what to investigate. We are going to try to have some English students provide the background information to help the students develop motive in addition to the method and the perpetrator. This does not need to be a live presentation but may be recorded or photos and evidence may be simply posted for your students to work with. Session Two: evidence to include information about footprints, hair, fiber and fingerprint information and our students can answer any questions that your students might have for clarification about evidence, the crime scene, etc…. Session Three: Our students will act as forensics specialists and answer any additional questions for clarification. Each school group will voice its prediction of who did it, what means did they use, what was the motive and what evidence do they have to support their opinion. This session would be our students acting as experts and providing the expert opinion about who did it, how and why.
