forensics project
reflection
1. During this project, I learned how forensics specialists collect evidence at a crime scene. I learned how to dust for fingerprints, what the different kinds of prints are, and match them with others. I also learned about chromatography and gel electrophoresis, and how it matches up with DNA sequencing. In addition, I learned about the varying degrees of murder and how California's laws differ from other places.
2. I would like to know more about the sequencing of the human genome and how it differs from person to person. I would also like to know how murder cases and their trials actually go in a courtroom.
3. If we were to do this project differently again next year, I would start organizing our presentation sooner. At the end we were a little bit jammed for time, so I would work on that and our general time management.
4. I feel that in the limited time I had to work on this project, I was on task for a large amount of time that I spent. I was sick and then out of town for a lot of this project, and in retrospect I probably should have worked on our presentation at home more. During the actual presentation, I would have liked to say something about the evidence gathered and the conclusions we had drawn.
5. I was happy with most of my group members and their work ethic. They finished all the work on time, and I feel the final product was sufficient and deserving of a good grade.
