The focus of Field Notes is on how crucial a good set of investigative field notes can be to the success of the criminal case. How might the availability of many different kinds of technology (e.g., photography, videography, computer imaging) make investigators less effective or even less interested in writing good, quality notes and reports? What are the advantages and disadvantages of allowing the officer/investigator to use voice activated note-taking and/or taking notes on a tablet device? Consider where the information will be stored. Integrate a Christian worldview perspective to support your discussion.
