Interactive White board on 11browke h:// drive

__Activity:__ After we finish with the interactive white board, we are going to ask the class to discuss their opinions during the topic. DNA profiling in forensics is very controversial. Some people don't think it's right for them to go back and prove other people guilty because the trial has already been given. If there was a murder at a supermarket at 2am and I was there at 12, my DNA would be at the supermarket making it seem plausible that I committed the crime. Going back with less eye witness testimony of a case could prove helpful or harmful. The other viewpoint think that it is okay because justice is being served. Eric created a list of pros/cons about DNA in forensics, we are going to ask the class who takes the pro and who takes the con side (if not enough class members choose one side we will take the opposing viewpoint with not enough members). The class will then have an informal debate about their opinions using information provided during the presentation and additional informational provided by us to the class.
