The document summarizes the Phase I of the Shewey Science Academy held in June 2008. It describes the goals of increasing student science knowledge, improving attitudes towards science, and encouraging careers in science. Students participated in forensic science investigations of a mock crime scene to learn techniques like DNA analysis, soil analysis, and blood spatter analysis. They then held a mock trial with students as expert witnesses. Pre and post tests showed gains in student science knowledge. Plans were made to expand the program in 2009.
