You know what a Crime Scene Investigator looks like on television. Now, get to know the real career.Forensic Science plays a vital role in the criminal justice system – providing investigators withscientifically-based information through the analysis of physical evidence.
As a student in the Forensic Science/CSI pathway at the Public Service Leadership Academy atFowler you’’ll be exposed to the real, everyday life of a crime scene investigator, gaining knowledgeand hands-on experience in:• Collecting and preserving material evidence found at crime scenes – including measuring,
recording and analyzing chemical substances (such as tissue samples, physical materials and ballistics evidence)
• Communicating with experts in fingerprinting, ballistics, handwriting, electronics, documents, chemistry, medicine or metallurgy to interpret evidence
• Reconstructing crime scenes and testifying as a witness in trials or hearings
This pathway will involve a rigorous and relevant four-course Project Lead the Way (PLTW)Biomedical Science sequence.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES: Crime Scene Investigator, Private Investigator, Law Enforcement

COURSE DESCRIPTIONForensic science is the application of scientific knowledge toquestions of civil and criminal law. This course is a lab-based,hands-on course that will explore what forensic scientists do,including modern forensic methods and scientific methods tosolve legal problems. This course will focus on collection andanalysis of crime scene evidence and lab analysis techniquesand the ability to clearly and concisely explain the results ofthe labs and techniques used, and present details of theanalysis in lab reports. The course requires students to applybasic understandings of physics, chemistry, biology and mathto explore the range of topics in this diverse field of study.
COURSE OBJECTIVES1. Students will understand the history of the forensic sciences
and its place in popular culture.2. Students will understand the roles of different types of
professionals involved in evaluating a crime scene and the collected evidence.
3. Students will apply the methodology of collecting and interpreting data, avoiding contamination, and preservation of chain of custody.
4. Students will understand how to present evidence in a professional (courtroom) setting.
INTEGRATED ACADEMICSN/A
EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIESn School will provide: TBDn Student will provide: TBD
TEXTBOOKFunkhouser, Charles and Barbara Ball-Deslich. ForensicScience for High School, Second Edition. Dubuque, Iowa:Kendall Hunt, 2009.
GRADING20% Tests: Tests will be longer and may cover more than
one unit of material. Test dates will be announced at least a week in advance.
35% Quizzes: Quizzes will be weekly and will cover the most recent material as well as a review of important concepts.
20% Labs: Labs are often performed in groups of 2-4 students; yet an individual lab report is always required of every student.
10% Homework: Homework will be assigned every night. It will be checked for completion each day and reviewed in class.
15% Projects: Research projects will be assigned every quarter. The topics of the project will be discussed in class and sufficient time will be given to complete the project and present it in class.
ADDITIONAL COURSE POLICIESn It is your responsibility to ask about any missed work!n If you had an excused absence, you will have one day for
each day missed to make up any work to receive credit.n If you were present on the day an assignment was
announced, then you are responsible for that assignment onthe day you return.
n If the absence is known about in advance, you should contact me before the absence to receive the work you will miss.
n Missed tests have to be made up within 1week of an absence. However missed quizzes only get 3 days to be made-up. You will be responsible to make arrangements with me to make up your tests /quizzes upon returning to school.
