Utilizing distance learning
Juniors and seniors in the criminal justice program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School participated in a distance-learning session with St. Louis University. Students took part in an autopsy lesson which included an interactive human cadaver demonstration through video conferencing. The program discussed the basic procedure of a forensic autopsy, during which the principles of objectivity, scientific method and evidence gathering were outlined. The program was made possible through a $1 million USDA grant the JVS obtained earlier this year. (Contributed photo)
