Students investigate individually or in collaborative teams (both work great) as they apply for an open position as a Special Agent within the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). To prove they are worthy of the position, students analyze eight different scenarios to uncover possible rights violations that apply to the Bill of Rights. After analyzing and solving the eight different cases, students use their evidence to compute the final formula to break the code and win the job.
