Management of Dead Bodies in Disaster Situations
Possibly have pauses between the ready for like a knowledge check. Give the brain a minute to actually process the 194 pages of reading
Lisa
Identifying Deceased
Enjoyed it...good, informative, i like the videos to show how to fingerprint and things to do to get a better finger print.
Stacey
Title was appropriate for content.
Information was fantastic. Loved seeing the demonstration of reinflating fingers for printing. Only "complaint" is that audio is a little off for that video. Good enough to understand but could be better.
Anne
Establishing Identification of Deceased
Great online class. Easy to follow and full of information
Joseph
Somewhat backloaded
Good information and presentation until it ended with a 194 page handout, which wasn't even mentioned in the presentation.

Christine
Excellent
Darren - this was the best video of all the videos I have seen . I liked the practical element of inflating finger tips, individual cases and it was all around a great class. Thank you so much. I like the practical videos best as I expand my knowledge of forensics. Only one comment, at the beginning of the video your name is misspelled.
John
My opinion

Establishing Identification of Deceased
I thoroughly enjoyed this course. The video lectures were full of useful information and I liked the review of previous cases. The water inject for prints was super interesting and Im excited to implement this technique.
Billy
Establishing identifcation of deceased helped me since I had a simular case
Very informative! I love the "learn in your spare time", as in this case, I received a call and came back and picked up where I had left. Great job Darren!!!
Ben
Quality Information
This class is a great introduction to determining how to establish identification of a deceased individual and as to why. As a "seasoned" crime scene investigator (10 years), I can say that we routinely use fingerprints and tattoos. We also use information as to who is supposed to be living at an address, or perhaps the person has a driver's license on them. It is very important to have a couple different methods of establishing ID. DNA is also used as well - but that is done by our state lab. Overall, the course has multiple points of useful information.
Tammy
Amazing
I have learned so much. Thank You.

Great class with a lot of info

Landon
Establishing decedent ID
Great course!!!
Russell
Anthropologists Anonymous
Nice work Darren and team! I might have put a little more stress on odontology- we do a lot of dental ID's, and comparative radiography- frontal sinuses, healed fractures etc. But for an overview *AND* solid look at scientific methods I could totally recommend this short course.
Ed
Establishing identification of deceased.
The videos were very helpful especially the hydrating of the fingers for finger prints. Very useful tool.
Tiffany

This course was very immersive and covered the topics well and in differing ways. I do not think that there are any changes I would recommend to this course.
McKenzie
Establishing Identification of Deceased
I thought this course was an easy way to understand and establish the identification of the deceased. I learned how difficult it can be to identify a dead body and why it is so important. The professor explains things very well and gives very good visual lessons. Everything was easy to access and I enjoyed this course very well.
Joseph
Accurate description of course
All of the text was relative to the course. I think the PAHO report was long and tedious and not a strong or relative way to to finish a good class. This report was pertinent towards the specific incidents but given the context of the course, could have been displayed as a supllemental or optional read- not part of the class.
Esmeralda
Surpassed Expectations
The structure and material in this course provided not only the basics but also specific examples that allows one to grasp the material. The information on mass disasters was not something expected but allows one to put into perspective the importance of positive identification.
Lisa
Excellent First Course through the Death Investigation Academy
I appreciate the instructor's in depth knowledge and clear and diverse teaching techniques. The handouts are very useful. Thank you so much for a great first course!
Ernest
Well described course
Material was well prepared and relevant.
James
Establishing Identification of Deceased
I believe additional case studies would be beneficial described in more detail. Actually go through the steps taken to obtain the ID.
Hannah
Review
I loved that you actually showed us how to take fingerprints instead of just telling us. The only thing I would change, if possible, is to allow us to back the video up the first time we are watching it. Sometimes I don't catch something the first time while taking notes.
Paige
