Capitalizing on the groundswell of
interest in forensic science series such as CSI and Forensic
Files, NSTA has teamed with Court TV to develop exciting
new curriculum units on forensic science for middle and high
school students. The units help students solve intriguing mysteries
by using real science, including biology, chemistry, and physics.
The two new units are now available free as part
of Court TV's award-winning Forensics in the Classroom
(FIC) educational science initiative, developed in partnership
with the American Academy of Forensic Science. The units are
ideal for forensics, chemistry, biology, and physics classes.

units, go to http://www.nsta.org/main/news/stories/nsta_story.php?news_story_ID=48693.
