Candid Student Reports

The following reports were written by members of Forensic Science during the first day of the program. Some elements may have been removed/edited for various reasons, but the text that remains is in the student's own words.

Zach

Well today in the Forensic Science class we learned about the jobs that relate to Forensic Science. After break we had a fun egg activity where we study eggs and then guess what is inside. It was funny when Monty broke the supposedly empty egg on his head and got a surprise. That's all for today.

Langston

hay i realy liked that eeg thing we should do it agien.

William

the first half was kind of boring. however i really liked it in the second half when Monty took over. my second favorite part was when we did the egg experiment, and my absolute favorite was when monty broke an egg on his head.

Sandy

We started the forensic science class off with a slide show that nicelyh illustrated what forensic science is. We then went outside for a break. When we got back we talked about experimenting with a box. We were then shown some eggs and given some tools. The eggs were then passed around and we were given two minutes to pass judgement on what the eggs were. At the end we stated our findings and then found out what they really were. I think that this was a very fun excersive and i would like more like it.

Tyler

Today I thought that it was cool how they explained everything and didn't leave us in the dark. I really liked the egg experiment especially when Monty broke the supposedly empty eggs over his head and got a rude awakening. Tell ya next time!

Whitley

today we talked about forinsics and skelitons and stuff like that. we did a very fun egg activitie and i liked it for the most part

Jackson

today was a good insight on what science of all areas is really like. The overview of the different fields seemed to help all people in how they should change or start their own perspective of science.

Connor

the first portion of the class was rather interesting because i knew only partsw of what was said but what i found most interesting was the second activity. The eggs were an interesting way to explore observation strategies

Ronan

It was extremeley fun to do these experiments with the eggs. We learned how to identify the eggs origin by using limited access to tools. I am esctatic for tommorow's camp to come.

Marquita Johns

I liked the Forensic Science class better than the Medicine and bioscience. I really enjoyed the egg experiment. It was very challenging, and suprising when we opened the egg to see what was inside. Our teachers were very funny. I cant wait until I come back tomorrow

Victoria

Today at Shodor i had a great time. Forensics is very exciting. Can't wait for tomorrow!
