  • Week 8: Advocacy Text Final Submission

    ADVOCACY TEXT: Your work in the third unit of this course builds to an Advocacy Text project: the Advocacy Text is a text that has a rhetorical purpose of creating positive, productive change for a cause in the world, with an audience that reaches beyond your instructor and classmates. Remember that a text can take many shapes, but to give you a guideline to work with, please create a document that could fit onto a one-sided, standard 8.5 by 11 sheet of paper (or smaller). The text can involve any combination of message elements that fit your rhetorical purpose: these elements may include the mode or channel you use to share the text with your intended audience, the conventions or genre of the document, and graphic, visual, or design elements. You may need to conduct outside research to learn more about your cause or to find up-to-date information to include in your Advocacy Text (and keep in mind that if you use any information thats not yours and is not common knowledge, you will need to find a way to communicate the source of your information to consumers of your text). Youre encouraged to let your text advocate for a cause that suits your personal interests and passions. It might, for instance, seek to do one of the following: to raise awareness about an issue, to inform or educate an audience about an issue, to persuade for a particular perspective on an issue, or to make a call to action (to encourage an audience to take a concrete step to help). To identify an opportunity that might fit this project well, you could consider either: creating a text that you have the authority to share with your intended audience (such as a postcard you could send to members of an organization you lead, an infographic you could share on your social media account, or a letter to a government representative) … or… creating a text that you can propose to an existing organization, group, or individual outside our class who is already advocating for your cause and might be able to use your text (for instance, you could propose a new poster to a local nonprofit that they could use to advertise their hours and services or you could propose an informational sign to your employer that they could add to the recycling bins to educate coworkers on what materials can be recycled) The Advocacy Text must be shared with the intended audience or shared with the organization, group, or individual youre proposing it to before the project is due: this is an important requirement of the project because it gives you as a student the opportunity to exercise your power as a writer-citizen. When you submit your final project, you must include evidence that you’ve shared your Advocacy Text with your intended audience or audience you proposed it to, such as a photograph of the text wherever youve posted it or a screenshot of a sent timestamped email in which you proposed the text to the audience you proposed it to. If you propose your text to an existing organization, group, or individual, whether or not that audience chooses to use your text is beyond your control and will not affect your grade.

  • criminology term paper

    Term Paper Assignment

    Value: 20% of Final Grade

    *Important: See Instructions for Annontated Bibliography and Proposal below. You will need to first understand the instructions for the term paper in order to complete your proposal and annotated bibliography.*

    Choose any one (1) specific form of criminal or deviant behaviour and apply any TWO (2) of the following theories to it:

    • Learning Theory (Differential Association, Differential Identification, Differential Reinforcement, or Differential Association-Reinforcement)
    • Subculture Theories
    • Control Theory
    • Labeling Theory
    • Neutralization Theory
    • Social Disorganisation Theory / Ecological theory
    • Strain Theory

    In your introduction, please provide a brief summary/description of the issue/crime that you are going to discuss. You do not need to go into great detail here. You may assume that I am familiar with many issues pertaining to crime and deviance and this is not intended to be a research paper about a particular type of crime. The purpose of the paper is for you to demonstrate that you understand and can use the theories presented in class to provide a critical analysis of a “real life” issue. Therefore, the bulk of your paper should focus on applying the theories.

    The body of your paper must address:

    1. How the crime/deviant behaviour fits into the explanatory framework of each theory. In other words, how can the particular crime or issue be explained by the theory? What is the cause of this crime or issue, according to the theory?
    2. What solutions would the theory propose for that crime? How could it be addressed/prevented, according to the theory?
    3. How effective do you think the theory is in explaining that phenomenon? What are any problems you can see with the explanation? In other words, you should provide a critical analysis of the theory’s approach to the issue. Compare and contrast the two theories you have chosen in their approach to your chosen topic, focusing on differences and similarities.
    4. In your conclusion, please state which of the frameworks you feel is better able to account for the particular form of crime that you have chosen to study.

    The Important Details

    Your essay will be:

    • Double-spaced;
    • In standard 12 point font;
    • Formatted with 1 inch margins
    • Maximum 8 pages (not including title page and references).

    Use in-text citations to reference works that you have consulted. Papers without citations and references will receive a failing grade. You must use a minimumof 5 academic sources (ie. journal articles and books). Websites are not appropriate academic sources unless they are created by a reliable academic or government institution and you are using the information with an understanding of where it is coming from. Government statistics presented in the format of a research report will be accepted as source material. Under no circumstances will Wikipedia (or sites of this nature) be accepted as an academic source. The internet can be a useful tool in directing us to articles and books that are peer-reviewed and good academic sources it is fine if you choose to use the internet for this purpose, as long as you seek out and refer to the original source material. Be wary of citing the websites of interest groups always find the original source of statistics or research to substantiate the claims that are being made. If you are uncertain about the validity or reliability of a source, ASK! Feel free to contact me for assistance.

    You must use the APA style of referencing and citation. This is the style used by many major social science journals, including Contemporary Justice Review. For examples of how to use this style correctly refer either to an issue of Contemporary Justice Review (available electronically through the library), the APA Quick Reference guide posted on Web CT, or the Owl at Purdue’s handy APA style guide to referencing, available online .

    Proofread your paper, have a friend proofread it, or take advantage of the writing help centre to guard against spelling and grammatical errors. Your paper will be marked on content, but also on its overall presentation. While one or two minor grammatical errors will not affect your grade, you will lose marks if you have obviously not proofread your paper and there are mistakes throughout.

    Familiarise yourself with the University regulations and policies on plagiarism and academic misconduct. Plagiarism or academic misconduct will result in a grade of 0 on this assignment. If you do not know how or when to properly cite a source, ask! Feel free to contact me for assistance.

    Annotated Bibliography and Proposal Assignment

    Value: 10% of Final Grade

    This is a scaffolding assignment intended to get you thinking about your final paper and working toward it early in the semester. This assignment is an opportunity for you to receive feedback on your topic and the direction of your paper, including your choice of theories. Your grade will be based on your attention to conforming to the instructions of the assignment (e.g. APA format for annotated bibliography) and the quality of your submission with respect to writing style, originality, and how well you explain the connection of your topic to the theory.

    Outline and Final Project

    OVERVIEW

    This document describes your final project (due by the last day of the semester) as well as the outline you are required to prepare ahead of time. Check the Course Calendar for the due dates for both the outline and the final project.

    For your final project you will:

    • Choose a courts and criminal procedures topic.
    • Research the relevant literature.
    • Explain and apply key terms and concepts relevant to your topic.
    • Critically examine your topic.
    • React to a controversial statement or position on that topic.
    • Evaluate various theories considering existing research and your own experience.
    • Take a position and write a position paper, making reference to the interdependence of criminal justice with other fields such as psychology or sociology.

    You will begin with an outline. The purpose of the outline is to provide your mentor with a proposal, in the form of a full-sentence outline, for your position paper. Your outline must include a complete (fully formulated) reaction statement and a list of all references (scholarly books, articles, and other sources of information) you plan to use to write your paper. Your mentor will review this outline to make sure that you are on the right track and provide you with valuable feedback.

    The goal of the outline is to help your mentor understand why you have chosen your topic. Therefore, your outline should answer the following questions:

    • Why did you select this topic?
    • Why is it important to you?
    • What are the key issues you will address?
    • What is your position on the issue?
    • What resources do you plan to use to support your position?

    The more information you provide in the outline, the better your mentor will be able to grasp your intent; the more your mentor knows about your paper, the better they will be able to provide guidance.

    FINAL PROJECT OUTLINE GUIDELINES

    Please use the following guidelines to create your outline.

    • Your outline should be between 375 and 600 words in length.
    • Your outline should include a complete, fully formulated reaction statement that clearly states the issue and defines the key areas you are addressing.
    • Your outline should be a .
    • Your outline should present the structure and content of your paper, as well as the references you plan to use to support your position. Embed in-text citations in your outline and add references at the end of your outline. Merely listing references at the end of your outline is not enough. You must include in-text citations.

    The following instructions are relevant both to your outline and to the project itself.

    1. Select a current issue related to courts and criminal procedures. This should be an issue that you are passionate about. How do you find a current issue? Below are some possible sources. You are encouraged to find your own sources. If you find any that may be helpful to your classmates, feel free to share them through the discussion board or Class Lounge.
    • .
    • Google a list of Supreme Court cases being decided in the current/next year. A search such as Supreme Court cases to watch or Supreme Court cases in [current year] should work. The site also has a list.

    In addition, here are a few additional topics that you may have interest in and want to research for your final project:

    • Legal procedural issues involved with the reclassification or decriminalization of drugs
    • The erosion of the right to privacy
    • Issues involved with the use of the drug courier profile
    • Alternatives to the exclusionary rule

    Note: The topic you select should be a current United States issue. Do not select an issue from a foreign country unless your idea is first approved by your mentor.

    1. Research the issue. You are required to use at least five sources for your paper. The only references you may cite are:
    2. Peer-reviewed, professional journal articles (e.g., articles published in journals such as Crime and Delinquency, Police Quarterly, Social Problems, American Psychological Review), law review articles, scholarly books (excluding the course textbook)
    3. Federal and state case law (i.e., appellate court decisions)
    4. State or federal statutes (including references to their legislative history)
    5. Government publications (e.g., Uniform Crime Reports, National Institute of Justice publications, U.S. Census Data)
    6. Scholarly websites

    Do not cite non-scholarly newspaper or magazine articles. Consult the Research tab in Moodle, where you will find databases with scholarly articles. The New Jersey State Library is a good place to search, especially the Criminal Justice database.

    1. Keep in mind that the references you select must include: (a) at least one scholarly book (i.e., an edited volume or full-length book) published within the last three to five years (this will indicate that you are familiar with current research and data in the field), and (b) at least one criminal justice professional journal article published within the last three to five years (this will indicate that you know how to find current information in this field).
    2. Include an annotated bibliography in your outline. Your mentor needs to know that you have a rationale for selecting the sources you did. Therefore you must provide an annotated bibliography for each of your sources. Include this annotated bibliography as part of the References section of your outline.

    An is a summary of each source. Read and analyze the source, identify the main ideas, and determine whether the information is relevant to your topic. Paraphrase (use your own words) to express the main ideas. Each annotated bibliography entry should be at least one paragraph (minimum of four sentences). Start by paraphrasing the main ideas. End by explaining how the source is relevant to your topic.

    1. Take a stand on the issue. After you have settled on an issue, think about the issue and take a stand. Formulate your thoughts. Know why you feel the way you do about the issue.
    2. Evaluate the pros and cons of both sides of the issue. Display objectivity! You are not merely expressing your opinion. You are taking a point of view supported by professional literature. Do not merely conduct a superficial review of the issue. Roll up your sleeves and dig deep into the issue. Immerse yourself with the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of both sides of the issue. You must support all of your statements with citations from professional literature.

    While you are analyzing your issue and using your multiple professional sources, it will be important to analyze how the sources relate. If you are using only one source in a section of your paper, remember to connect the source to overarching concepts and themes you have discussed in your paper. All parts of your paper, including your sources, must be related.

    1. Create your outline. Present the structure and basic content of your paper in a full-sentence outline, including the sections it will have and the areas, ideas, theories, issues, and so on that you will present.
    2. Abstract
    3. Statement of the problem (reaction statement)
    4. Analysis and defense of your position (create a separate point for each main idea or defense you will use to support your position)
    5. Conclusion

    In-text citations must be included in your outline and references must appear at the end of your outline. As stated, each reference must include an annotated bibliography. Note: When you write your final position paper, remember to remove the annotations and include just the references. All the references must be in proper APA format. Remember, a minimum of five references, excluding the course textbook, is required. Use a variety of references, not just one type of reference.
