My rating of this resource: ***
My experience using this resource: Forensic Science
Topic I was teaching: Fingerprinting

Course Level: Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: This resource was used to demonstrate the different patterns of fingerprints. It was also used to teach the students about fingerprints
Value Added: Provides access to data sets, Provides additional content, Increases student engagement and motivation
Strengths: I searched online for a great deal of time to find a good site to help teach and visualize fingerprinting. This was a pretty good choice.
Weaknesses: I would have liked to see more animations/videos of actual fingerprinting and lifting of prints. Also, animations of how prints are matched would have been extremely helpful
