Why Forensics? Forensic science is broadly defined as the application of science to criminal investigations or problem solving. By incorporating a problem-solving approach to science education, teachers are engaging students in exciting and innovative ways. Our forensics materials provide a novel approach to teaching your students the "real-world" applications of science and math. A forensics approach: Focuses on concepts and skills already emphasized in the science classroom Creates a bridge between science and real-life application Allows students to become investigators and engage in a science-as-inquiry approach Places emphasis on cooperative learning and the relationship between evidence and explanations
