Blog 20: Room Creativity

1. How do you plan to address the room creativity expectation?


I plan to exceed the expectations of addressing my 2-hour presentation room. Since my senior project is on Forensic Anthropology, I require to create an atmosphere that will be able to describe a professional laboratory by having posters of the human skeletal system, facial reconstruction posters, a poster that gives the feeling of skeletal remains used in order to compare trauma and markings on a remain used in an investigation. I will also like to make the audience feel part of the forensic science community and by doing that I will be providing name tags in a private-firm manner in order to give the participants the idea that we are all scientists. Finally, I plan on having a long, white, well-lit table with skeletal remains to make it feel as though we are in the forensic anthropological morgue. 

2. What activity ideas do you have for answer 1 or 2?

Answer 1: Determining the horizontal excavation layer in which the remains were found in order to determine the possible time of death.

Activity 1: For this activity I plan on giving each group of forensic scientists a container with different, distinct layer of soil that enclose a miniature model of the skeletal system and will provide them with a guide of discovering what time period the skeletal remains were buried in and the evidence they can use in order to support their findings.

Answer 2: Determining if the skeletal remains are in fact of forensic significance based on the presence of trauma.

Activity 2: For this activity I plan on giving each group synthetic artificial remains and expect what they can conclude from their findings as though they were going to testify in the Criminal Justice Court system. Through their pursue in their scientific findings I will then present to them that the remains are part of a calf, cow, or another type of cattle in order to express how you sometimes assume in the field of forensics that things are often belonged by a human rather than taking an in-depth analysis in the remains.
