This workbook is intended to complement an introductory forensic anthropology class. It was originally conceived as a way to provide additional practice opportunities to online students struggling to learn without laboratory examples during COVID. While classes have moved back to the classroom, students still report a desire for additional practice opportunities.

It was my goal in writing this text to provide my students with that additional practice in an engaging and memorable manner. Major concepts in forensic anthropology are broken down in clear language and supported by examples. Activities are designed to appeal to a variety of learning preferences, from coloring pages to word scrambles to building your own crime scene.

1. Introduction To Forensic Anthropology
2. Introduction To Osteology
3. Search and Recovery
4. Time Since Death and Taphonomy
5. Population Affinity Estimation
6. Sex Estimation
7. Age Estimation
8. Stature Estimation
9. Trauma, Pathology, and Human Variation
10. Individualization
11. Report Writing
12. Mass Disasters
13. Scientific Writing
14. Answer Key
 

Jerielle Cartales

Jerielle Cartales is fascinated by bones. She enjoys studying skeletal development, trauma, and decomposition. She’s also passionate about helping others learn about forensic anthropology. Jerielle earned her MSc in Forensic Anthropology from the University of Dundee in Scotland in 2018, and has been teaching various forensic anthropology courses for Western Oregon University in Monmouth, Oregon, since 2019. 

As a student, she struggled with learning from textbooks that present a “wall of text.” This has motivated her to find creative ways to present information, so her students can more easily understand and remember the concepts. 

Outside of the classroom, Jerielle enjoys gardening more than housework and reading more than writing.
