Forensics: Observation Skills Activity and Note Guide to Accompany FREE Prezi

This 4-page student note guide is available in both MS Word and PDF format. An answer key is included. There is a free prezi that has all of the content for this activity here: Observation Skills I like to do this activity near the start of my 12th grade Forensic Science course as a great way to introduce observation as a skill that can be practiced. I use it at the beginning of my second unit - Crime Scene Protocols. Students learn about our brain's ability to take in information, and incorporate that information with prior knowledge. They will have the opportunity to practice observing some photographs and making assumptions. The Innocence Project is also introduced in this activity. The note guide ends with a comparison of an eyewitness to an expert witness.

This is part of my Crime Scene Protocols Unit. The unit plan, lesson plan, and many of the resources are available for free on my blog and on TPT.
