Each investigative group prepares a set of “fingerprint evidence” for another group to analyze using each technique. Using the fingerprint standards developed by the FBI and Modus Operandi sheets, each group identifies the fingerprints of the suspects. Includes a step-by-step instructional manual, student worksheets, and materials for experimentation. Allow 3 hours total lab time, plus 2-3 hrs for developing cyanoacrylate prints. Additional items required but not included: fume hood, (6) one-quart jars or one-liter beakers. Designed for 24 students working in groups of four.
