Homework: Criminal Justice
Since everyone did such a great job with the Seminar Homework, I've decided to follow that same format to some extent and divide this week's Unit Homework (Topics in Criminal Justice), into 2 parts as well. The only difference is you are not required to watch a video presentation. However, you must write a minimum of 300 words count for each question and use three scholarly sources.
General Instructions
A. Review The Sentencing Project and give your views.
B. Research and discuss the JDAI (Juvenile Detention Alternative Initiative) and explain how this can be favorable to the outcome for youth.
C. What did you see from a new perspective in this course?
*Friendly reminder the reference list does not count towards the (homework) word count minimum. You must have 3 scholarly sources, one source can be the textbook provided in the course.
Textbook: Walker, S. Spohn, C. & Delone, M. (2017). The Color of Justice: Race, Ethnicity, and Crime in America (6th Ed.). Cengage Learning US.
For your Unit Homework you will research and answer the following questions below. The total homework must be a (minimum of 2,000 words) and five scholarly sources. Your textbook may be used as a source. Use in-text citations and remember to cite your sources in APA format. Be sure to follow instructions and answer each part of the question completely, failure to do so will result in a 10-point reduction per question. I will check the word count for this homework and deduct an additional 10 points if the paper does not meet the minimum requirements stated above. Encyclopedias and Dictionaries are not appropriate research sources at this level. No Wikipedia!
