Week 11: Presentation of Findings

Often a written criminal investigative analysis will be supported by a presentation that can be given to a local law enforcement agency or other organization contracting the analysis. These presentations should be organized and structured. Conclusions should be clear and concise and be based on sound analyses. Most importantly, the presentation should attempt to provide the most probable/most reasonable explanations.

This week, your group will present your findings from the criminal investigative analysis to the class through the Discussion. You will also submit your group evaluations.
