Incorporating a 'crime scene' analogy into undergraduate nursing health science courses is a creative way to transform the student's learning experience. It aligns with the goal of high-impact learning and makes the course subject matter more accessible and relevant to the student's future careers as critically thinking nurses. In this session, Devon and Kristen will share the basics of how they incorporated a ‘crime scene’ analogy in their undergraduate nursing pathophysiology course.  Attendees will follow an “active investigation” to identify connections between the victim, suspects, and timeline of the crime to discover how this high impact learning strategy can transform exemplars in pathophysiology into the realm of ‘true crime.’
