AIO Daughter’s final for a high school medical forensics class is tasteless, flippant, and disturbing.
**Edit** My daughter is going to ask if she can take the test the regular teacher had prepared as opposed to this (assuming the sub didn’t want to administer this to the seniors because they get out a week before the rest of the school) with the explanation on how tasteless she finds the project. If that doesn’t happen, I’ll be emailing the principal and counselor. I don’t want to ruin someone’s job over bad taste, but I do find this assignment actually offensive (and so does my daughter, the student actually having to do the assignment.)
**2nd edit** For those of you who seem to think I have an issue with the subject of research being serial killers, that isn’t it at all. I encourage my child to do factual research that interests her. My issue, AND HERS, is the treatment of victims as fun tidbits for games and activities.
My high school senior daughter is taking a medical forensics class that is currently being taught by a long-term substitute as the regular teacher is on maternity leave. My daughter has struggled with this sub’s approach to projects; she’s constantly focused on the creativity and artistry of projects over getting the content accurate. The sub was going to completely bypass a final exam/project until the kids informed her that per school policy there HAS to be a final, so this is what she came up with.
My daughter finds this to be flippant, crass, and a downright disturbing treatment of the content, as do I. I grew up down the street from a serial killer who was caught in 2005, and I can only imagine the pain his family was in, as well as all his victims/their families. Maybe I’m being overly sensitive having known this family, albeit briefly and not well as the children were teens when I was little. AIO?
