Presentation transcript:

The Fingerprint Factor Fingerprint identification is a method of identifying individuals using the impressions made by the tiny ridge formations found on the fingertips. No two people have exactly the same arrangement of ridge patterns, and the patterns of each individual remain unchanged throughout life. Other personal characteristics may change, but fingerprints do not. This makes fingerprints a very reliable means of personal identification. Fingerprints have been used for identification purposes for thousands of years. Members of the law enforcement community began using fingerprint evidence to identify criminal suspects over a hundred years ago. Since then, developments in the tools and methods of collecting and analyzing fingerprint evidence have had a significant impact on how criminals are identified and prosecuted. In this lesson, you will explore “the fingerprint factor” to answer the essential question: Next How has the development of fingerprint technology affected the identification and prosecution of criminals? 1. The Question Begin by reading this article to develop some general background knowledge about fingerprint identification.article

2. Information Sources You will use the online sources below to gather information about a topic in the history of fingerprints and fingerprint identification. –Sources include selections from the Student Resource Center online database and the Science e-book World of Forensic Science. Home access only through the BCPS Databases gateway with required logins, available on a handout from your school library media specialist.World of Forensic ScienceBCPS Databases Go to Slide 3 to select a research topic and get directions and handouts for the Student Activity Next Brief History of Fingerprint Identification A History of Latent Fingerprint Analysis Fingerprint Analysis- Famous Cases The History of Fingerprints Ridges & Furrows: Significant Dates & Events “Every Contact Leaves a Trace”: A History of Fingerprinting Early Fingerprint Pioneers Biographies of individual fingerprint pioneers: Alphonse Bertillon Henry Faulds Francis Galton Sir Edward Richard Henry William James Herschel Fuseo Matsumur Juan Vucetich AFISAFIS and IAFISIAFIS Recent advancements in fingerprint technology: Farewell Fuzzy Fingerprinting?

Use this Cornell Notes 5W’s organizer to record your research notes; remember to cite your sources on the organizer. Cornell Notes 5W’s organizer 3.Use this Microsoft Publisher template to create your timeline panel; directions are included on the template. For an example, see this model timeline panel for the topic First Users of Fingerprints, which will be the first panel in your class timeline.templatemodel timeline panel 4.Save or print out your completed timeline panel according to your teacher’s directions. All timeline panels should then be sequenced chronologically to create a class Fingerprint Factor Timeline. Note to teacher: Class timeline may be created in digital format by combining all timeline panels into one MS Publisher or PDF file; or, hard copies of all timeline panels may be printed out to create a class timeline wall display or packet Next Research Topic List 1.Early Scientists (Nehemia Grew, Marcello Malpighi, Johannes Purkinje) 2.Alphonse Bertillon 3.Henry Faulds 4.Francis Galton 5.Sir Edward Richard Henry 6.William James Herschel 7.Fuseo Matsumur 8.Juan Vucetich 9.FBI: AFIS and IAFIS 10.Recent advancements in fingerprint technology (2000- present) Research Topic List 1.Early Scientists (Nehemia Grew, Marcello Malpighi, Johannes Purkinje) 2.Alphonse Bertillon 3.Henry Faulds 4.Francis Galton 5.Sir Edward Richard Henry 6.William James Herschel 7.Fuseo Matsumur 8.Juan Vucetich 9.FBI: AFIS and IAFIS 10.Recent advancements in fingerprint technology (2000- present)

4. Assessment Activity Next After your class Fingerprint Factor Timeline has been sequenced and assembled, examine each panel of the timeline. Take notes in chronological order about each contribution to the development of fingerprint identification. You will need these notes to write a constructed response to the essential question:notes How has the development of fingerprint technology affected the identification and prosecution of criminals? Support your answer with details from the timeline. Your response may be graded using this scoring tool.scoring tool You may record your response in one of the following ways: Type your response in the interactive text box below, save, and turn in to your teacher’s folder on the Students (L:/) drive according to your teacher’s instructions Type your response in Microsoft Word and print out Write your response on notebook paper
