This discussion is an opportunity to thoughtfully reflect on your learning from this course and engage in closing conversation about the course with the instructor and class peers. This prompt encourages you to think broadly about the subject matter while also reflecting on specific aspects of criminology that you learned. If it is more typical for you to illustrate your learning, rather than describe it solely in text, please do consider a media-based option for this discussion!
Because this is a short learning week, your initial post is due on Wednesday instead of Thursday and responses are due on Friday (the last day of the course).
Reflect on what you think were the most essential topics and concepts. Consider your own experiences, expectations, and any prior knowledge you may have about the subject. In your response, address the following questions:
-
- Core Concepts: What are the foundational theories and ideas in criminology that you felt like were the most important?
- Historical Context: Did covering the history of criminology influence your understanding of contemporary criminal justice issues?
- Role of Criminologists: What did you learn about the key roles and responsibilities of criminologists? How do they contribute to the criminal justice system and society as a whole?
- Current Issues: Identify some current issues or trends in criminology that you wish we knew more.
- Interdisciplinary Connections: Identify what you learned about how criminology intersects with other disciplines such as sociology, psychology, law, and forensic science? Provide examples of these intersections and their relevance.
- Practical Applications: What practical skills and knowledge did you gain from this course? How can these be applied in real-world scenarios?
