2 hour Presentation Rough Draft

(1) What is your sponge activity?

1. mock crime scene.

2. Break students up into 7 teams and give them different jobs to work in the crime scene with. Give a camera to a group to take pictures of the evidence and crime scene to see if they know what to take pictures of and if it’s at a good angle. Give notebooks to people to sketch out the crime scene. Have people retrieve the evidence found. Make them work together to see what comes first: photography and sketching, and then picking up the evidence after I confirm it. 

3. It relates to my topic because I will be teaching the students the different positions within CSI and how important they are.

(2) What do you plan to do and say in the introduction?

Introduce my topic, CSI and myself, tell students my EQ: what is the most important facet of a crime crime scene investigation?, and tell them what it means, give students my plan: definition of CSI, what they do, the jobs that are within CSI, answer1, activity1, answer 2, activity 2, answer 3, activity 3, best answer, three meaningful sources, product, and conclusion.

(3) What do you plan to say in your foundation?

I will talk about what CSI stands for and tell the students some of the different jobs incorporated with CSI. I will also tell them why they are important to CSI and how some of them work with each other.

(4) What will your 2 or 3 answers be for your 2 hour?

my three answers are anthropology, psychology, and photography

(5) What activities will you do for each answer and why?

anthropology:  I will have buckets filled with dirt and inside there will be different kinds of “evidence”. I will break people into groups and they will have to dig through the buckets to find and ID the evidence. I will have a screen for the students to put the evidence in. it gives the students a “ hands- on” experience of what an anthropologist does to find the necessary evidence at a crime scene.

psychology:  I will give a scenario to the students of someone who is a suspect of a crime. The students will have to read it and come up with possible reasons the person might have committed the crime presented on the profile by looking at their background and relationships. the students will have an idea of what psychologists look at to be able to find possible reasons of a suspect’s actions.  

photography:

I will give the groups photos containing a crime scene and I will have them examine the photo. They will have to tell me whether the photo is at a good angle, if all the evidence appears on the photo, and whether the lighting is good. If a photo isn’t good, they will give suggestions of what could be improved. the students learn the importance of a photographer and how difficult it may be to get everything in a photo from a crime scene and if it possible at all to get a good photograph.

(6) How do you plan to conclude your 2 hour?

I plan to tell the students:

1. my best answer: anthropology because it requires figuring out whose body was found and possibly, their age, race and time of death/ decomposition time. It helps other jobs and other jobs help it in return.

2. my 3 meaningful sources and justifications: 1) My service learning person Sheri Orellana because while I was with her, she taught me the processes of doing her job, CSI, and she showed me real cases she worked with her reports which helped me understand what she has to do every time she's working on a case, 2) the book Forensics by Edward R. Ricciuti because it introduces me to different jobs and also gave me detailed information on them and what other jobs are incorporated within the bigger, more well- known jobs, and 3) my 1st independent component, which was watching shows about criminals and taking notes because they showed a criminal's life and how people came up with the conclusions of a murder by doing their jobs: psychology, anthropology, pathology. etc.

3. my product: learning to do my normal activities in life and when i get one, my job more carefully and thoroughly because if I miss something or ruin what i am working on, I could disrupt the entire process of my work, or disrupt other people's work.

4. my conclusion: restate my EQ: what is the most important facet of a crime scene investigation?, my 3 answers and activities and why I had them do them, and my best answer. I will thank them for being in my presentation and taking part in it.
(7) How do you plan to decorate the room?

I plan to make the room look like a crime scene with yellow tape around the room and objects out of place as if a robbery and murder took place.

(8) What supplies/resources will you need to make your 2 hour possible?

 for my activities, I will need:

Activity 1: bucket, chicken bones, inanimate objects like small rubber balls, wooden shapes, small animal toys, gloves, screen 

Activity 2: sheets of papers with a scenario of a person’s profile.

Activity 3: different photographed angles of a crime scene
