Experiential Learning in Digital Forensics

Abstract

In this chapter, we introduce the concepts of digital forensics and experiential learning, and describe how we implement experiential learning in an undergraduate level digital forensic course and a graduate level digital forensic course. The students were given the option of working on either a digital forensic research topic or the Digital Forensic Research Workshop (DFRWS) IoT Forensic Challenge (2018–2019). We also report on the artifacts generated by the students working on both types of final projects.
