All other uses, transmissions, and duplications are prohibited unless permission is granted expressly. This lesson is based on Dr. Jamie McKenzie’s Slam Dunk Lesson module available at http://questioning.org/module2/quick.html. Images by subscription to www.clipart.com.
Lesson Objective: Students will use online information sources to create an annotated timeline documenting the development of fingerprint technology and its impact on the identification and prosecution of criminals. Time Management: One 90 minute class period in a computer lab for background reading, research, and creation of timeline panel; half period in classroom or computer lab for examination of class timeline and assessment.
Differentiation Strategies:
• Provide hard copies of the online readings
• Allow students to work as partners
• Provide extended time
Learning Preferences/Styles:
Field Dependent/Independent, visual, auditory, tactile, reflective, global, sequential Notes to the Teacher: The class timeline may be sequenced and published in digital or hard copy format: • All students’ timeline panels may be combined in chronological order into one MS Publisher file; this file could also be converted to PDF. Publish via teacher webpage or student drive. • Hard copies of all students’ timeline panels may be printed out to create a class timeline wall display or packet.
