, To the Instructor
Each chapter of the instructor’s manual to accompany the 11 th edition of
Criminalistics includes the following support materials for instructors:
• Chapter overview of the main topics presented in the text
• Learning objectives from the main text
• Lecture outline with teaching notes
• List of changes/transition guide for the 10th - 11th editions
• Additional assignments and class activities
o Demonstrations and lecture-starters
o Questions (and answers)
• Suggested answers to end-of-chapter assignments in the main text, namely the
Review Questions, Inside the Science, Application and Critical Thinking, and
Case Analysis
• MyCJLab assignments online
Students should become familiar with the organization and capabilities of their
state and local forensic laboratories. Usually this can be accomplished through brochures
and pamphlets that are prepared by these facilities. The instructor may want to arrange a
class tour of one of these laboratories, or perhaps engage the cooperation of a forensic
laboratory in order to prepare a PowerPoint presentation showing pertinent sections of the
installation.
