This final conference deals with the final issue any computer forensics examiner, or any other witness to an event will face – testifying under oath to what you know. Each person who testifies is a witness and as we discussed several weeks ago will present testimonial evidence. As an expert witness, which is how a computer forensic examiner will be generally be presented, you are not providing eye-witness testimony to a crime, but are testifying about what you as an expert found or did not find during your collection, preservation, and examination of physical evidence. When you testify on behalf of the government (normally this would be a prosecutor or district attorney), or could be the defense counsel, you will first testify on direct examination – that means the attorney who called you to the stand has to lay certain groundwork to get your testimony about your examination of the evidence before the jury as an expert (known as Voir Dire). Once the preliminary questions have been asked and answered, the attorney handling the direct examination will then turn over examination to the defense. This is often done before you are allowed to answer questions about the actual evidence or case before the court. The reason this is done in this matter is that you are first being presented to the court as an expert in some field. The opposing counsel gets to cross-examine you (Voir Dire) to try to defeat your being named as an expert. In cases where you have already been determined to be an expert by the court on previous occasions and testimony, there is less of a chance the opposing counsel will be successful in discrediting your testimony admissible as an expert. But, for a new examiner, the first couple of times before the court will be more demanding as to your expertise. After both sides had a chance to question your bone fides as an expert, the counsel wishing you to be accepted will make a motion that you be accepted as an expert. Once that is complete, you will be asked about the matter at hand, and will testify to your collection, preservation, and examination of physical evidence. This is also where the opposing counsel will be especially alert for any weakness or contradictions in your testimony. For this week’s discussion, complete the following questions below in detail. Please discuss thoroughly and substantively in your post. Additionally, respond in a thorough, substantive, intelligent way to at least one of your fellow classmates that adds to our discussion and learning of this week’s topic! 1) What are some questions you think that you would be asked initially on direct examination being qualified to testify as an expert? 2) What kind of questions do you think the opposing counsel during Voir Dire will ask you? Remember on cross examination, opposing counsel can ask leading questions to challenge your expertise. 3) Describe why it is important, and how you would testify to limit any contradictions? You must start a thread before you can read and reply to other threads

The Application Assignment requires students to read and summarize a peer-reviewed article that is based on empirical research, including a discussion of the research question, the main variables, results, limitations, and a critical analysis of the research from a social justice perspective. You are expected to write about 5 pages. So far we have covered the following: • Common errors of reasoning • Ethics in Social Work Practice • Conceptualization and Measurements • Population, Samples, and Sampling • Research Designs All these topic areas have smaller topic areas like sampling bias, validity, levels of measurement, etc. The goal of this assignment is to use some of these areas in your paper. Touch on at least three topic areas we have discussed in class. As you review the research, identify: 1. The main variables – dependent and independent variables – what are the key variables the researcher is investigating? 2. If present, discuss the other variable(s) the researcher controlling for? Why? 3. What are the limitations of this study? 4. What direction would you like to see future research go? Why? 5. Perform a critical analysis of the research from a social justice perspective How can you tell an article is peer-reviewed? There are a few resources online that can help. One way is by looking if the article say

All resources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations. Your case study, including all references, will be formatted in APA style

Read Exhibit 7.1, page 222. Additionally, conduct independent research on Mark Hamm’s collection of data on the American skinhead culture. Create an analysis of 750-1,000 words regarding Hamm’s study. Address the following: Explain how Mark Hamm collected data on American skinheads in 1989. What was unexpected in his attempts to collect data on this group?

Advance new thinking about how the U.S. Marine Corps will tackle the diverse and difficult security challenges of the 21st century.
