Crime Scene Investigation Procedural Anytime/Anywhere Learning (CSI PAAL)
Critical incidents in recent history have brought attention to the need for readily accessible information to those who must respond to these incidents. Since users need specific information, they should have access to portable technology that will walk them through procedures. This system, referred to as Procedural Anytime/Anywhere Learning (PAAL), has the potential of changing how traditional training and learning is viewed.
With funding from the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), Office of Science and
Technology, the JSC is working with Sapien Systems, Inc. to introduce the PAAL
system. The implications of this system are increased levels of efficiency,
quality of work, safety, productivity, job satisfaction, and enhanced financial
savings by the agencies employing this type of technology. CSI PAAL focuses on
Crime Scene Investigations and is built off of the DNA Evidence Collection
curriculum, which is currently distributed by the NIJ on two compact discs. The
CSI PAAL package also includes an authoring system which allows users to input
agency specific policies/procedures.
