Forensic Nutshells

This past year, students from our forensic science classes worked in teams of sixteen to create scale crime scene models, called Nutshells. Led by Mrs. Bianca Brandon, students began by researching real cases to use as inspiration for their models. Students then created a synopsis of their scenarios in the form of a case study, which other groups were tasked with solving. Certain team members were in charge of drafting a 3D drawing of the models using AutoCAD and Revit. Students then went down to the MakerSpace during classes to construct their crime scenes, using a scale of 1” to 1’. This allowed students to use the skills they learned in class and practice applying them to authentic crime scenes.
