The central issues in Criminal Justice and the Rule of Law revolve around how Supreme Court justices are appointed and how their ideological leanings affect all citizens of the United States. According to the chapter, the Supreme Court's decision that other constitutional amendments fell under the domain of the Fourteenth Amendment was supported by those within the legal community as ensuring the criminal justice system was in line with the American values of citizens' rights and liberties, and that the government's authority was limited. Explain two reasons why this might hold true, then provide rebuttals for each reason that demonstrate the opposite opinion. In your own words, explain the importance of the Supreme Court. Include at least three reasons as to why it is or is not a necessary part of the American criminal justice system. Police officers are given the power to deprive people of their freedom by detaining them, arresting them, or by using force to control them. Officers are expected to utilize discretion making skills, which are choices on when and how to apply our set of legal laws. Discretion can involve a simple verbal warning, issuing a citation, or making an arrest. In some instances, police officers have a wide range of discretion and may apply our legal system as they see fit. Explain your choices in this scenario by addressing the following questions: Describe what police discretion is. How is it applied? What are the key elements that most police officers utilize when they show discretion? If you were a police officer, how would you use police discretion? In what circumstances would you use it? What types of crimes would you use discretion instead of a ticket or an arrest? Explain your rationale. Short answer post. No references needed. .

150 words agree or disagree Discuss utilitarianism and deontological ethics. Utilitarianism is one of the most powerful and persuasive approaches to normative ethics in the history of philosophy. Though not fully articulated until the 19th century, proto-utilitarian positions can be discerned throughout the history of ethical theory. Though there are many varieties of the view discussed, utilitarianism is generally held to be the view that the morally right action is the action that produces the most good. There are many ways to spell out this general claim. One thing to note is that the theory is a form of consequentialism: the right action is understood entirely in terms of consequences produced. What distinguishes utilitarianism from egoism has to do with the scope of the relevant consequences. On the utilitarian view one ought to maximize the overall good — that is, consider the good of others as well as one's own good (The History of Utilitarianism, n.d.). Deontological (duty-based) ethics are concerned with what people do, not with the consequences of their actions. Do the right thing. Do it because it's the right thing to do. Don't do wrong things. Avoid them because they are wrong. Under this form of ethics you can't justify an action by showing that it produced good consequences, which is why it's sometimes called 'non-Consequentialist'. The word 'deontological' comes from the Greek word deon, which means 'duty'. Duty-based ethics are usually what people are talking about when they refer to 'the principle of the thing'. Duty-based ethics teaches that some acts are right or wrong because of the sorts of things they are, and people have a duty to act accordingly, regardless of the good or bad consequences that may be produced (Duty-based ethics, n.d.). 2. Discuss the different categories of unethical police behavior and provide an example of each. How do these unethical actions impact the policing profession? There are many levels of behavior and acts committed by law enforcement both on duty and off that can be considered misconduct. These acts can be categorized as ranging from the minor errors in judgement, to the blatant intentional victimization of honest law abiding citizens as well as the Police Misconduct & Corruption 2 Lieutenant Robert H. Garrett criminal element. No matter whom the victim may be all forms of misconduct and corruption damage the integrity of the profession. The minor incidents, if left unchecked ultimately lead to more serious acts of misconduct that can result in a culture of corruption within an agency and a lack of trust by the community. Misconduct is defined as the intentional wrongdoing or improper behavior. Some of the acts that are often committed by law enforcement can be those such as; accepting gratuities in exchange for special treatment, accepting bribes, stealing from both citizens and criminals alike, and at its worst, physical harm inflicted on innocent people. Whatever the specific beha.

CJUS 500 Presentation: Police (Part 2) Transcript Slide 1 Enforcement officers must operate under the purview of the United States Constitution. There are clear constitutional limitations on police behavior. The Fourth amendment provides civilians protection against "unreasonable searches and seizures". Case law has helped define the interpretation of what constitutes unreasonableness and also, what constitutes a search and seizure. The Fourth amendment is only applicable to governmental actions including local, state, and federal enforcement. The scope of constitutional protections does not however, impose upon the actions of private individuals or companies. The Fourth amendment also concerns itself with what is regarded as a reasonable expectation of privacy. In certain circumstances, an individual would not have a reasonable expectation of privacy and so it may not fall under the purview of the Fourth amendment. Laws continue to evolve and the Constitution continues to be subjected to evaluation and interpretation. A warrant must be obtained in order to search or seize. Officers must also establish probable cause to suggest that they have enough evidence against a suspect to authorize, issuance of a warrant. In some instances, police officers can conduct warrantless searches and seizures. One type of warrantless seizure is known as a Terry stop or a stop-and-frisk. In these unique circumstances, law enforcement only need have "reasonable suspicion" not probable cause, to believe that a person has committed a crime. The Fifth Amendment contends that no person "shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself". As such, the Fifth Amendment provides defendants the constitutional protection of refusing to testify against themselves. The Fifth Amendment also requires that a defendant is provided due process at all stages of the the legal process. Due process ensures fairness in all legal matters. In Miranda v. Arizona (1966), the Supreme Court ruled that before individuals in police custody are questioned, they must be provided clarity about their constitutional rights. However, this warning is only necessary when an individual is in police custody and police officers are intending to interrogate or question the individual. It is further only specific to testimonial statement evidence made by the suspect. If a suspect is read their Miranda rights and does not respond, police officers can still continue to question the suspect and any information obtained, can be admissible. There is an additional public safety exception to the Miranda rule as well. In other words, police do not have to provide a Miranda warning if there is an immediate threat to public safety. If the suspect provides any statements under this public safety exception, statements can be admissible against that individual at trial. The Sixth amendment provides defendants many constitutional protections but.

This paper is about fact-finding procedures in Chinese criminal trials. It traces general rules setting out fact-finding procedures, and describes the roles that various legal actors that should play to ensure that they are followed properly. It will further examine how Chinese law balances the duty to determine the truth and the principle of protecting individual rights from potential infringements in criminal cases. Based on the conflicts between truth-seeking and human rights protection, this paper will conclude by discussing limitations in Chinese fact-finding procedures and will suggest how they can be mended.

F O S T E R , C E D R I C 1 6 9 2 T S THE ADULT CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM VERSUS THE JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM This chapter examines what might happen in cases that the police have solved by arresting an adult. As the fate of the accused person is determined by the criminal justice system, victims will interact with prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges, juries, and—if the defendant is convicted—corrections officials. Cooperation is the desired outcome, but conflict might erupt over certain divisive issues with these criminal justice professionals and the agencies that employ them. Note that this chapter focuses on how cases are processed by the legal system when adults are arrested by the police. Each state has the authority under the constitution to determine at what age adulthood begins and for which crimes this distinc- tion applies. For example, in New York, state legislators decided that persons as young as 16 might be considered as adults, and their cases could be processed in the adult system. When the police arrest a suspect as young as 13 for murder, he could be considered as sufficiently mature to face adult penalties, such as a life sentence, if the prosecutor chooses to pursue this get-tough option. In nearly all the other states, the age when individuals can be held fully responsible for their criminal behavior is 18. In ...

In the recent years, there has been a considerable growth in the name of arrest without warrant and the inhuman torture of the person arrested in the name of interrogation while under the police custody. This paper has examined the impact of making arrest without warrant and the sufferings of the arrested person without trial which give rise to the question of violation of human rights. The central focus of this research is to explore the role of the police to protect the human rights in Bangladesh and to find out the problems faced by the police while performing their duties. It also aims to go through the existing human rights situation in Bangladesh as well as to find out the ways by making effective recommendations to improve the situation through positive role played by the police in this regard.

CJ 500 Sample Case Brief Facts: Mr. Miranda was arrested at his residence, taken into custody, and subsequently brought to the police station. While in custody at the police station, Mr. Miranda was identified by a witness who made an accusation and complaint against him. Mr. Miranda was then interrogated by police officers for approximately two hours. Mr. Miranda subsequently confessed to the crime and gave a signed, written confession. Mr. Miranda was never advised of his right to counsel or his right to remain silent. At trial, the oral and written confessions were presented to the jury. Miranda was found guilty of kidnapping and rape and was sentenced to 20 to 30 years imprisonment on each count. On appeal, the Supreme Court of Arizona held that Miranda’s constitutional rights were not violated in obtaining the confession. Issue: Whether statements that are obtained from an individual who is in custody and being interrogated are admissible at trial if the suspect has not been advised of his Fifth Amendment privilege to remain silent and his Sixth Amendment right to counsel. Ruling: Confession received in violation of an individual’s Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment privileges are inadmissible in trial if the individual has not been advised of his or her rights. Analysis: The court held that there can be no doubt that the Fifth Amendment privilege is available outside of criminal court proceedings and serves to protect persons in all settings in which their freedom of action is curtailed in any significant way from being compelled to incriminate themselves. (Miranda v. Arizona, 1966) As such, the prosecution may not use statements, whether exculpatory or inculpatory, stemming from custodial interrogation of the defendant unless it demonstrates the use of procedural safeguards effective to secure the privilege against self-incrimination. By custodial interrogation, we mean questioning initiated by law enforcement officers after a person has been taken into custody or otherwise deprived of his freedom of action in any significant way. (Miranda v. Arizona, 1966) The court further held that without proper safeguards the process of in-custody interrogation of persons suspected or accused of crime contains inherently compelling pressures which work to undermine the individual’s will to resist and to compel him to speak where he would otherwise do so freely. (Miranda v. Arizona, 1966) Therefore, a defendant must be warned prior to any questioning that he has the right to remain silent, that anything he says can be used against him in a court of law, that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, and that if he cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for him prior to any questioning if he so desires. (Miranda v. Arizona, 1966) Conclusion: Based on the aforementioned reasons, the U.S. Supreme Court overruled and reversed the conviction of ...

Evaluate various types of public policy ideologies. 1.1 Summarize aspects of the problem-program-policy continuum. 1.2 Explore the concepts of law, policy, program, and project in criminal justice. 2. Compare and contrast internal and external influences on criminal justice public policy. 2.1 Discuss the internal and external analytical lens through which criminal justice public policy is viewed. Course/Unit Learning Outcomes Learning Activity 1.1 Unit Lesson Chapter 1 Unit I Essay 1.2 Chapter 1 Unit I Essay 2.1 Chapter 1 Unit I Essay Reading Assignment Chapter 1: Introduction Unit Lesson Introduction This course is designed to introduce certain ideas related to criminal justice public policy. Also, during this course you will be asked to assess the rationale of many topics:  deterrence and incapacitation,  drug policy,  sex-offender policy,  gang policy,  juvenile justice policy,  gun policy,  mass incarceration,  the death penalty,  intermediate sanctions,  white-collar offending policy,  human trafficking,  police policy,  correctional treatment and rehabilitation, and  community-based crime control. UNIT I STUDY GUIDE Introduction to Critical Analysis of Criminal Justice Policy (Dudko, n.d.) MCJ 6530, Critical Analysis of Criminal Justice Public Policy 2 UNIT x STUDY GUIDE Title Each of these areas has a certain history in the United States, and students will be expected to be familiar with that history to help formulate new and revised policies in their professional roles as members of the criminal justice system. Gau (2019) points out that reaching consensus on a definition of policy is a difficult task, and the author utilizes a preferred definition from the Oxford English Dictionary. Before delving into the specifics of the various criminal justice policies covered in this course, it is important to understand and differentiate between a policy, a program, a project, and of course a law or statute. Once that task is completed, you will focus on at least one methodology used to assess public policy and examine whether a current policy should be revised, if it should be a planned revision, or if it is an unplanned revision, which has its own set of disadvantages. Additionally, a seven-stage model for policy revision espoused by Welsh and Harris (2016) will be presented as an effective method of addressing criminal justice policies. Law To begin, the United States is not a democracy, it is a constitutional republic, and the U.S. Constitution and the Bills of Rights are the law of the land. While the textbook alludes to the United States being a constitutional democracy, that is, in fact, not true. The United States is a constitution ...

State-run media outlets have rebutted arguments that the charges are baseless, erroneous and politically motivated. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded to criticism from the United Nations Security Council by saying that the case would “not have any political impact” and that it was being “considered and carried out as the task [sic] relating to the rule of law.”

The case presented is a philosophy of practice, by Ulf Donner, leader of the Foundation Home at the psychiatric nursing home in Finland that for 15 years has based its practice on Eriksson’s caritative theory of caring. Even at an early stage in our serving in caring science, we caregivers recognized ourselves in the caring science theory, which stresses the healing force of love and compassion in the form of tending, playing, and learning in faith, hope, and charity. The caritative culture is made visible with the help of rituals, symbols, and traditions, for instance, with the stone that burns with the light of the Trinity and the daily common time for spiritual reflection. In every meeting with the suffering human being, the attributes of love and charity are striven for, and the day involves discussions of reconciliation, forgiveness, and how we as caregivers can tend by nourishing and cleansing on the level of becoming, being, and doing. In the struggle in love and compassion to reach a fellow human being who, because of suffering, has withdrawn from the communion to find common horizons, the sacrifice of the caregiver is constantly available. We work with people who often have the feeling that they do not deserve the love they encounter and who, in various ways, try to convince us caregivers of this. We experience patients’ disappointment in their destructive acts, and we constantly have to remember that it may be broken promises that produce such dynamics. Sometimes, it may be difficult to recognize that suffering expressed in this way in an abstract sense seeks an embrace that does not give way but is strong enough to give shelter to this suffering, in a way that makes a becoming movement possible. In recognizing what is bad and what is difficult, horizons in the field of force are expanded, and the possibility of bringing in a ray of light and hope is opened. As caregivers, we constantly ask ourselves whether the words, the language we use, bring promise, and how we can create linguistic footholds in the void by means of images and symbols. In our effort to nourish and cleanse, that which constitutes the basic movement of tending, we often recognize the importance of teaching the patient to be able to mourn disappointments and affirm the possibilities of forgiveness in the movement of reconciliation. We also try to bring about the open invitation to the suffering human being to join a communion with the help of myths, legends, and tales concerned with human questions about evil versus good and about eternity and infinity. Reading aloud with common reflective periods often provides us caregivers a possibility of getting closer to patients without getting too close, and opens the door for the suffering the patient bears. In the act of caring, we strive for openness with regard to the patient’s face and a confirmative attitude that responds to the appeal that we can recognize that the patient directs to us. When we as caregivers re.

The Case of Will Smithers: To Exhume or not Exhume, that is the Question A surprising amount of information can be gleaned about an individual just from one’s tissues. In this case, you have been assigned to shadow histopathologist Dr. Jonas Riehm as he attempts to identify the cause of death of 42-year-old Will Smithers. Mr. Smithers’s body was discovered sitting in his car near an alley several miles from his home. There was no obvious cause of death, necessitating an autopsy to determine if the death was from natural causes or foul play. However, due to a clerical error, the decedent’s body was released and interred before a proper autopsy could be performed, and an official cause of death was not established. Fortunately, several tissue samples were taken before the interment and remain available for examination. Mr. Smithers’s family does not wish to have his body exhumed, so local law enforcement professionals have asked Dr. Riehm to examine the tissue samples in the hopes of determining his cause of death and whether or not an exhumation is needed. The following sections have been taken from the official report that Dr. Riehm sent to the local coroner’s office. You are to report to Dr. Riehm’s office with your anatomy and physiology textbook. He expects students to answer questions related to the work that he does in his histopathology laboratory. Dr. Riehm enjoys teaching, and has a collection of microscope slides that he uses to introduce students to the fascinating universe of histology. He starts with the following definition: histology is the study of the normal structure of tissues. Although Dr. Riehm is an expert in the study of the diseases and abnormalities of tissues, histopathology, he is a firm believer that you must be able to recognize normal tissue before you can understand diseased tissue. He has set up four microscope stations for students to get familiar with how the microscopes function and to view slides of normal tissues. Each station has a microscope with a slide of one of the four primary tissue types. (a) Define tissue and organ, and then describe how each fits into the levels of body organization. (b) Describe what you would expect to observe on the epithelial tissue slide. What are the general functions of this tissue? (c) Describe what you would expect to see on the connective tissue slide. What are the general functions of this tissue? (d) Describe what you would expect to see on the muscle tissue slide. What are the general functions of this tissue? (e) Describe what you would expect to observe on the nervous tissue slide. What are the general functions of this tissue? Satisfied that you are properly introduced to the concepts of normal tissue, Dr. Riehm begins to fill you in on the details of Mr. Smithers’s case, whose tissue samples have coincidentally arrived just in time for your shadowing visit. The first set of slides included an epithelium sample taken from Mr. Smithers’s forehead. The slide w.

The Case of Chad CPSS/405 Version 2 1 University of Phoenix Material The Case of Chad Chad is a 45-year-old man currently in prison for raping 3 women. Chad had met these women on separate occasions at a bar. In each case, he put Rohypnol in their drinks when they were not looking. He would wait for the drugs to take effect and then take each of his victims to the bathroom and rape them. He reported the rapes were about feeling powerful, and he liked feeling as if he had control over these women. Copyright © 2016 by University of Phoenix. All rights reserved. 1 Sexual Offenses and Offenders There are few groups of individuals who are more reviled than sexual offenders. Though this has been true for more than a century, the past two decades have brought forth intense scrutiny from the public, politicians, and policymakers. Several emotionally-charged cases of child sexual abuse were highly publicized in the 1980s and 1990s, reigniting public intolerance for sexual offenders. And although the incidence of sexual offenses has been decreasing, sanctions for sex offenders have been constantly increasing over the last two decades. Unfortunately, empirical research does not show that such sanctions significantly deter offenders or reduce recidivism, and yet this legislation creates significant financial strain for local jurisdictions and states that must implement the policies (Zgoba et al., 2008). Despite the questionable efficacy of these laws, there is no sign of reducing the sanctions for this group. This is not the first time historically that society has exhibited a “moral panic” about the dangers of sexual abuse. This panic has waned and ebbed throughout the last century. Jenkins (1998, p. 4) explains that the perception of sex offenders is the effect of “socially constructed realities” influenced by existing social and political ideologies. The public desire to incapacitate sex offenders today is similar to social attitudes in the 1930s, when sexual psychopathy laws emerged to incapacitate those considered to be “unfortunate but dangerous wretches” (Robson, 1999, p. 2). So although empirical research has consistently shown that sex offenders constitute a heterogeneous population of individuals for whom a one-size-fits-all policy will not be effective, such policies regarding the supervision, monitoring, and incapacitation of sexual offenders have gone full circle since the beginning of the century. The purpose of this text is to provide the reader with a general understanding of sex offenders and the societal responses to them. Historically, sex offender research has focused on why sex offenders commit such offenses, and the characteristics of different types of offenders. Sex offender research today is centered around three general topic areas: (1) the factors associated with sexual offending, including personal characteristics as well as situational variables; (2) sex offenders' risk of recidivism; and (3) the efficacy of polici.

The Case of SamSam is a 62-year-old, widowed, African American male. He is unemployed, receives Social Security benefits, and lives on his own in an apartment. Sam has minimal peer relationships, choosing not to socialize with anyone except his daughter, with whom he is very close. Sam raised his daughter as a single father after his wife passed away. Melissa is 28 years old and works as an emergency medical technician (EMT). When Sam was 7years old, he was placed in foster care and has had very limited contact with his extended family. Prior to September 11, 2001, Sam had a steady employment history in food services and retail.He hadno psychiatric history before that time. Sam reportedhis religious background is Catholic, but he is not affiliatedwith a congregation or church. Sam became depressed and psychotic sometimeafter 9/11 and had to be taken to an emergency room. He was hospitalized at that time for several weeks. His mental status exam (MSE)and diagnostic interview showed no history of alcohol or substance abuse issues,and he had no criminal background or current legal issues. Sam was released to outpatient care but was deemed unable to return to work. At that time,he had a diagnosis of major depression with psychotic features; he alsohas a history of high blood pressure and migraines. After several additional multiple psychiatric hospitalizations, he was gradually stabilized. Sam has been seeing a psychiatrist once a month for over a decade for medication management and is currently prescribedDepakote®, Abilify, and Wellbutrin®. Sam has a positive history of medication and treatment compliance. He wastreated by a social worker at an outpatient program for about 2years after his hospitalizations for his psychosis and depression. He gradually stopped attending sessions with the social worker after his symptoms stabilized, and his termination from the outpatient program was deemed appropriate; he continued to see the psychiatrist monthly for medication management.After about 10years of seeing only the psychiatrist, Sam scheduled a meeting with this social worker for increased feelings of depression. These feelings were broughton after his daughter moved out of the apartment they had shared for many years to live with her boyfriend. He reported difficulty adjusting to living alone and said he often feels lonely and anxious. He reported during sessions with his social worker that he speaks to his daughter frequently, and although she only lives 10blocks away, he misses her terribly.Our sessions for the last 3months have focused on his mixed feelings around his daughter’s new life with her boyfriend. He said he is happy that she is happy but misses her very much. I emphasized his strengths and helped him reframe his situation by focusing on the positive changes in her life as well as his own life. Our goals were to help him reduce his symptoms of anxiety and begin searching for new opportunities for socialization outside of his daughter. .

The Case of Sam Sam is a 62-year-old, widowed, African American male. He is unemployed, receives Social Security benefits, and lives on his own in an apartment. Sam has minimal peer relationships, choosing not to socialize with anyone except his daughter, with whom he is very close. Sam raised his daughter as a single father after his wife passed away. Melissa is 28 years old and works as an emergency medical technician (EMT). When Sam was 7 years old, he was placed in foster care and has had very limited contact with his extended family. Prior to September 11, 2001, Sam had a steady employment history in food services and retail. He had no psychiatric history before that time. Sam reported his religious background is Catholic, but he is not affiliated with a congregation or church. Sam became depressed and psychotic sometime after 9/11 and had to be taken to an emergency room. He was hospitalized at that time for several weeks. His mental status exam (MSE) and diagnostic interview showed no history of alcohol or substance abuse issues, and he had no criminal background or current legal issues. Sam was released to outpatient care but was deemed unable to return to work. At that time, he had a diagnosis of major depression with psychotic features; he also has a history of high blood pressure and migraines. After several additional multiple psychiatric hospitalizations, he was gradually stabilized. Sam has been seeing a psychiatrist once a month for over a decade for medication management and is currently prescribed Depakote®, Abilify, and Wellbutrin®. Sam has a positive history of medication and treatment compliance. He was treated by a social worker at an outpatient program for about 2 years after his hospitalizations for his psychosis and depression. He gradually stopped attending sessions with the social worker after his symptoms stabilized, and his termination from the outpatient program was deemed appropriate; he continued to see the psychiatrist monthly for medication management. After about 10 years of seeing only the psychiatrist, Sam scheduled a meeting with this social worker for increased feelings of depression. These feelings were brought on after his daughter moved out of the apartment they had shared for many years to live with her boyfriend. He reported difficulty adjusting to living alone and said he often feels lonely and anxious. He reported during sessions with his social worker that he speaks to his daughter frequently, and although she only lives 10 blocks away, he misses her terribly.

The case of OD in an NGO in India Nisha Nair Indian Institute of Management Indore, Indore, India, and Neharika Vohra Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, Ahmedabad, India Abstract Purpose – This paper aims to report an organizational development (OD) exercise carried out in a prominent non-governmental organization (NGO) that works in the area of rights and advocacy in India. Design/methodology/approach – The exercise was part of the first author’s graduate program, which required the application of behavioral science theory to a live organization under the supervision of her advisor, the second author. The organizational development exercise spread over four months, involved entering an organization, interacting with key participants and stakeholders of the organization both formally and informally, diagnosing issues facing the organization and a mirroring exercise with the management at the end of the intervention to provide feedback. Findings – Some of the issues and improvement areas that emerged through the exercise are discussed in the paper. It also offers reflections on some of the key lessons learnt during the process of intervention, with implications for OD in developmental organizations. Originality/value – The paper offers insights into OD interventions in the developmental sector, posing a different set of challenges than conventional organizations, and also because the organization itself was in a state of flux at the time of the intervention. Keywords Non-governmental organizations, Business development, Organizational effectiveness, Labour efficiency, Change management, India Paper type Case study Introduction Organization development (OD) work has largely been carried out in business or for profit organizations. Bargal and Schmid (1992) refer to the paucity of literature on consultation done in developmental organizations. OD in nonprofit organizations provides some unique challenges for the consultant that may not exist in business organizations (Ramos, 2007; Waysman and Savaya, 1997). Developmental organizations are thought to differ from for-profit organizations in a number of ways (Brown and Covey, 1987). Studies have shown that employees in developmental organizations seek greater autonomy and less organizational control in their work (Mirvis and Hackett, 1983). Since there is a need for flexibility and local discretion in the working of developmental organizations, they tend to be more informal and loosely organized than business organizations ( Joseph, 2000; Lewis, 2003). Another often cited concern is the existence of high role ambiguity and lack of clarity about roles and procedures in such organizations (Goldman and Kahnweiler, 2000; McDonald, 1999). In his study of organizational change in a human service organization, Ramos (2007) discusses the poor communication across the various units/programs of the nonprofit. Given that values and ideology play a central role in developmental organizations (B.

The Case of “Hector” Case Study 1: Chronic Hepatitis (Cirrhosis of Liver) & Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome I. Case History Background Information Hector is a 44 year old, Hispanic male of low socioeconomic status. He lives on the southwest side of Chicago, Illinois in a neighborhood that is heavily populated with people of his ethnic background. Hector lives in a 3 bedroom home that he is currently renting. Family History/Current Relationships Hector was born in San Juan, Mexico and was raised in a two parent household, and has four siblings. Hector is the youngest of the four children. He comes from a Catholic background. Hector’s father worked as a carpenter, and his mother was a homemaker. Hector’s father was an alcoholic and was both physically and verbally abusive to the family. Hector lost his father at age 10 due to a physical altercation that took place at a local watering hole, which resulted in a fatal injury. His mother decided to relocate to the United States where she could receive the support of her family. At age 23, Hector met his current wife. Hector lives with his wife Consuela (age 40), and his 3 children Veronica (age 8), Mateo (age 6) and, Alejandro (age 2). Recently, his mother, and two cousins have moved into the home due to medical and financial reasons. Hector indicates that although times are hard, he is very committed to his family and grateful for their ongoing support. Support Systems Hector considers his family to be his primary support system. He indicates that they work very hard to be there for one another no matter what the situation. He indicates that he has a few friends but feel that they are not necessarily positive support systems, but can often times provide an outlet to stress. Education Hector has not graduated high school, but when time permits, he attends classes at a community agency who is assisting him with prep classes that will enable him to take the G.E.D. However, Hector admits that he is not able to consistently pursue obtaining his G.E.D because earning a living is his priority at this time. Employment Hector indicates that he is the primary provider in the home at this time. He indicates that they are able to receive some government assistance (Medicaid, food-stamps, WIC), but the income is supplemented, depending on his ability to obtain work. Hector currently works as a seasonal worker for a construction company. He reports that when he is actually called in to work, he can make decent money. However, there is question as to whether Hector receives his salary “under the table”. Hector does not have reliable transportation. Although he owns a mini-van, he reports that it is in constant need of repair. Hector chooses use public transportation and carpooling as a primary mode of transportation, because his license is suspended due to receiving his second DUI/DWI. II. Description of Presenting Problem Hector reports that he knows that he has an issue wi.

The Case of Joe the Jerk 1 The Case of Joe the Jerk (or, the Very Capable Jerk) You have been asked to consult with a module manager in a public service center of the Social Security Administration. A module is a group of about forty workers who work together in processing claims for social security coverage (i.e., requests for the beginning of payments, or other services such as changes and information). A module has all the specialists needed to process a claim from beginning to end——claims authorizers, benefits authorizers, file clerks, and typists/word processors. Each module has a module manager (hereafter, MM) and two assistant module managers (AMMs) who lead and manage the team of workers in the module. The MM, Joan, has a serious concern about one of the AMMs, Joe. Joe is very intelligent, talented, and younger than most AMMs. As far as his knowledge of the work and technical details is concerned, he is extremely promising and has excellent prospects to move up to become MM and then move on up beyond that. Joe, however, is arrogant in his dealings with the workers in the module. He talks down to people and treats them curtly and rudely. He behaves as if he deserves more special treatment and attention than the module members because he is an AMM. On the other hand, Joe also takes some stands and actions that are not necessarily bad or unjustified. Some incidents: One of the file clerks arrives late fairly often. Joe has begun to confront her very aggressively, in front of the other members of the module, criticizing her for arriving late. He has initiated disciplinary action against her. Some other members of the module have pointed out to Joe and Joan that the file clerk is a young single mother with a lot of personal problems. Her brother was recently shot to death in a street fight, apparently drug related. Her child is sick a lot and she has problems getting good child care. Joe, however, insists on going forward with the disciplinary action, saying he cannot let a person arrive late regularly without being unfair to those who do arrive on time. Besides, he says, it is essentially illegal for him not to take action. Joan has to decide whether to intervene in the disciplinary action or let it go through. Joan is concerned about Joe’s effect on motivation and work satisfaction in the module. He speaks very condescendingly to module members who make mistakes, acting as if he is very superior to them and a lot smarter than they are——which is often true, in a sense. Joan was so concerned about growing tensions in the module that she arranged for a weekend retreat, where the group went through some team development exercises with a consultant. Throughout the retreat and the exercises, Joe had a virtual sneer on his face, and he made repeated sarcastic comments about the time the group was wasting on ―touchy-feely nonsense. The members of the module have group meetings to discuss problems and changes. Joe has gotten up and wal.

The Case of Emily P.Emily is a 62-year-old, single, heterosexual, African American female who seeks treatment for anxiety. She says she is very concerned since she recently has been pulling her hair out,and it has become noticeable on top of her head. She is taking to wearing hats,which she finds acceptable. She worries about many things, which is not new to her,and she finds that scrubbing her home clean is her best therapy to ease her anxiety.Emily reports that germs have been a regular concern of hers since adolescence, when she learned in health classes about the risks of serious diseases including sexual transmittable disease. Emily presented with meticulous grooming, although the knees of her pants were noted as worn. She has arthritis in herspine and knees and uses a walker to help her manage mobility safely. With her physical disabilities it is challenging sometimes to scrub clean the house daily. This worries her shouldshe get a visitor and the house is not in order as she would like it. She is no longer working,so the amount of time it takes her to scrub the house clean doesn’t delay her daily schedule as it used to.Emily receives Social Security income and is not employed. Although the Social Security is acceptable,her living expenses are always a concern to her. She lives alone in a subsidized apartment in the same building as her 72-year-old, unmarried sister,so rent should not increase. Emily and her sister shared an apartment for over 30 years, beginning when each of their marriages dissolved. Emily reported that when her sister began a romantic relationship 5 years ago, Emily began to feel very anxious and started to cry often. Emily moved into an apartment down the hall in the building and began to pull the hair from her head,hiding her hair loss by wearing wigs. This behavior occurred at different times and resulted in scabbing. Emily said she feels better after but does not always notice how much she is pulling. Her sister learned of Emily’s hair pulling after her wig slipped off one evening to reveal bald spots. She set up a schedule over the past few months with her sister to help stop the hair pulling. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnot. She is worried that she will be disappointing her sister by not sticking to the schedule to reduce her hair pulling. Her sister encouraged Emily to seek treatment rather than “hiding her ways.” Emily is reliant upon her sister for transportation and for a sense of social and emotional connection. Emily worries about bothering her sister due to her transportation needs,and she worriesthatwithouther sister she would be helpless. She knows she is edgy with her sister often and worries that might be from a lack of good sleep. She agreed to this session even though she is pessimistic about anything working. During our initial visit at our local mental health center, Emily shared that when she was 2 years old her mother died from tuberculosis, and the following year her father, an a.

The C-130 is large and unmaneuverable compared to tactical jets. With a C-130 crew of 7-10 compared to the 1-2 of tactical jets, it would be risky to operate the C-130 exposed to enemy defenses. So although the C-130's readiness would be increased by keeping it airborne for earlier snatch of descending aviators, it wouldn't be wise to hold it airborne near enemy targets. It should be kept in 'safe areas' over Iran or maybe offshore until needed. But the pronged C-130 is a potential addition to other rescue forces such as helicopters, so the C-130 too is subject to the same kinds of time delays in communication to get it headed to the site of a potential downing. (And remember it has to get there before the surface is reached by the downed aviator.) How many people could each C-130 theoretically catch mid air? Is it one person rescued per plane? THE TIMING IS TIGHT, SO GETTING A SECOND DESCENDING AVIATOR WOULD BE VERY RARE EVEN IF TECHNICALLY FEASIBLE. How fast is the C-130 compared to other options like a search and rescue helicopter? MAX SPEED OF A C130 IS 368 MPH, BUT THAT'S GOING 'DOWNHILL. CRUISING SPEED IS UNDER 300 MPH. If a C-130 didn't reach it's window of time to grab a pilot midair, is it feasible for this type of plane to conduct the rescue on the ground? NOT VIA THE PRONG (WHICH IS INTENDED TO CATCH AN UNFURLED CHUTE). BUT THERE ARE TECHNIQUES SUCH AS FULTON SKYHOOK THAT MIGHT WORK (BUT ARE NOT PART OF YOUR PROBLEM). What elevation would the tactical aircraft pilots be flying at, and could they lose altitude after getting hit and while still assessing their situations? (Important for determining time constraints.) SMART WEAPONS PERMIT DELIVERY FROM 15,000 FEET OR ABOVE How would the C-130 locate a pilot upon arriving at the likely downing position? Visually? Some sort of beacon? /Presumably, sighting the pilot, adjusting to compensate for the pilot's descent, and making the grab would all take a good deal of time, especially if the C-130 comes under enemy fire and must conduct evasive maneuvers. VISUALLY/RADIO WITH PILOT IN CHUTE/PERHAPS GPS IT WOULD BE QUITE RISKY FOR THE PILOT DESCENDING OR AFTER REACHING THE SURFACE, BUT HE/SHE MIGHT USE FLARES TO MAKE SIGHTING BY RESCUE CREWS EASIER. YES, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE You mentioned that C-130s are manned by 7-10 people. What is the typical size of a S&R helicopter crew, for comparison? 3-4 A C-130 would probably be an attractive target for Iran's capable air defense systems. How well is the aircraft able to deal with enemy fire? PROBLEMATIC Would it be escorted during S&R? LIKELY, BY JETS Would S&R helicopters be any less vulnerable (presumably not, as they would be descending to make pick-ups)?LESS VULNERABLE DUE SMALLER RADAR SIGNATURE AND DUE GREATER MANEUVERABILITY .

THE CASE FOR MIXED REALITY TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE Stuart W. Volkow Alex C. Howland, PhD The world of work is rapidly changing. Now, more than ever, the need for continuous workforce training is needed. While there are many benefits to social and experiential offerings of face-to-face training, distance learning is typically more practical in today’s society. Unfortunately, current distance-learning technologies lack the immersion necessary for learning 21st-century skills. Virtual reality and augmented reality (i.e., mixed realities) can be more effective for training and learning than traditional flat-screen media. THE FUTURE OF WORK AND THE OPPORTUNITY OF MIXED REALITIES TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE Robots, automation, and artificial intelligence are rapidly changing the face of the American workforce. As more and more jobs are filled by machines, experts agree that the education marketplace will need to change to keep up with the growing and widespread need for worker retrain- ing (Pew Research Center Internet & Technology, 2017). While there are benefits to the social and experiential learning experiences that can be offered in a face-to-face setting, distance learning is often an affordable and flexible way to provide that training. Unfortunately, most eLearning and webinar platforms only offer participants a passive experience (e.g., watch- ing videos, listening to a lecture). With corporate education, including employee orientation, onboarding, and skill building, passive learning is the norm, consisting largely of sitting down and consuming pre-packaged content in bulk that’s presented formally by an educator (Hinchcliffe, 2017). Such offerings do not help develop the vital skills needed in today’s increasingly global and dis- tributed economy, such as teaming, communication, leadership, and cultural intelligence. They also do not immerse learners into the context of the learning and provide the ability for learners to practice in a safe environment. As a result, many learners develop feelings of isolation, dis- connectedness, and frustration, often associated with poor retention rates and low return on investment (Willging & Johnson, 2009). Mixed-reality technologies (i.e., virtual reality and augmented reality) provide solutions to these problems by allowing people to come together in an active simulated environment that allows them to see and interact with fellow participants and the simulated environment, regardless of geographic location. Such technologies have the potential to dramatically transform education, training, and human performance. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of mixed realities (MR), to discuss theories associated with how the technologies can provide value for performance, and to provide specific examples of effective early-use cases. Introduction to Mixed Realities Well told, any story can be immersive. From spoken word to literature, film, and television, imagination work.

The Career Development of Mexican American Adolescent Women: A Test of Social Cognitive Career Theory Lisa Y. Flores The Ohio State University Karen M. O’Brien University of Maryland, College Park This study tested R. W. Lent, S. D. Brown, and G. Hackett’s (1994) model of career choice with 364 Mexican American adolescent women. Path analyses were run to determine the influence of contextual and social cognitive variables on career aspiration, career choice prestige, and traditionality. Partial support for the model was evidenced as nontraditional career self-efficacy, parental support, barriers, acculturation, and feminist attitudes predicted career choice prestige. Acculturation, feminist attitudes, and nontraditional career self-efficacy predicted career choice traditionality. Feminist attitudes and parental support predicted career aspiration. The paths between nontraditional career interests and the 3 outcome variables were not supported. Finally, none of the background contextual variables in this study predicted nontraditional career self-efficacy. Implications of the results and suggestions for future research are discussed. Mexican American women constitute a significant portion of the American population (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1996), are underrepresented at all levels of education (Carter & Wilson, 1993; Lango, 1995; McNeill et al., 2001; U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1991), and are overrepresented in low-paying occupations tradi- tionally occupied by women (Arbona, 1989; Arbona & Novy, 1991; Ortiz, 1995). Relatively little empirical research has been conducted to identify the variables that contribute to the educational and occupational underachievement of Mexican American women. Indeed, researchers have noted that the career development of Hispanics has received only slight consideration in the counseling and vocational literature (Arbona, 1990; Fouad, 1995; Hoyt, 1989; McNeill et al., 2001), and they have questioned the generalizability of career development theories to Hispanics (Ar- bona, 1990, 1995; Fitzgerald & Betz, 1994; Hackett, Lent, & Greenhaus, 1991). The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of a current model of career choice to the experiences of Mexican American adolescent women and to extend the current model to incorporate variables that are hypothesized to be salient to this population. It is well documented that Hispanics are the least educated when compared with other major racial/ethnic groups in the United States and that, among Hispanics, Mexican Americans have the lowest high school and college completion rates (47% and 6.5%, respectively; U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1996). Mexican Ameri- can women are less likely to graduate from college than their male counterparts (Ortiz, 1995; Tinajero, Gonzalez, & Dick, 1991), and their representation in higher education decreases significantly at each successive level (Carter & Wilson, 1993). Moreover, those Mexican American women who pu.

The budget process for Albany, GA is easy to get access to a simple search was able to get me a lot of information. My untrained eye is unsure how detailed it is, so it could be a lot of fluff. The budget process does seem to be coherent due to the different levels and approvals that the city manager has to go through. The citizens are involved through a public hearing this year was held on June 2nd for the FY 2021. From the search I did, I couldn’t find much commentary that showed that the community disagreed with the process. The process seems very open from the Albany city website. Albany commission leaders and the city manager are very vocal from the local news I see that they are held to task for many of their decisions. I’m not sure is it due to COVID19 but even I tune in the local Facebook open commission meetings now. The impression I get is that the city is more involved and cares more for showing to citizens that they are listening. The citizens from my view are pleased with that response and that difference from when I was in Valdosta I couldn’t even tell u who the major was. It's interesting as someone who has never thought to think how my city spends money to find a lot of resources breaking it down. Reference City of Albany. (n.d.).

In BC’s nearly-decade-old “new” curriculum, the curricular competencies describe the processes that students are expected to develop in areas of learning such as mathematics. They reflect the “Do” in the “Know-Do-Understand” model. Under the “Communicating” header falls the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions.” Note that it contains two processes: “Explain mathematical ideas” and “Justify mathematical decisions.” I have broken it down into its separate parts in order to understand--or reveal--its meaning. The first part is commonplace in classrooms. By now, BC math teachers—and students—understand that “Explain mathematical ideas” means more than “Show your work.” Teachers consistently ask “What did you do?” and “How do you know?” This process is about retelling, not just of steps but of thinking. The second part happens less frequently. Think back to the last time that you observed a student make—a necessary precursor to justify—a mathematical decision. “Justify” is about defending. Like “explain,” it involves reasoning; unlike “explain,” it also involves opinion and debate. In order to reinterpret the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions,” I will continue to take apart its constituent part “Justify mathematical decisions” and carefully examine the term “mathematical decisions.” What, exactly, is a “mathematical decision”? Below, I will categorize answers to this question. These categories, and the provided examples, may help to suggest new opportunities for students to justify.

The central issues in Criminal Justice and the Rule of Law r.docx

1. The central issues in Criminal Justice and the Rule of Law revolve around how Supreme Court justices are appointed and how their ideological leanings affect all citizens of the United States. According to the chapter, the Supreme Court's decision that other constitutional amendments fell under the domain of the Fourteenth Amendment was supported by those within the legal community as ensuring the criminal justice system was in line with the American values of citizens' rights and liberties, and that the government's authority was limited. Explain two reasons why this might hold true, then provide rebuttals for each reason that demonstrate the opposite opinion. In your own words, explain the importance of the Supreme Court. Include at least three reasons as to why it is or is not a necessary part of the American criminal justice system. Police officers are given the power to deprive people of their freedom by detaining them, arresting them, or by using force to control them. Officers are expected to utilize discretion making skills, which are choices on when and how to apply our set of legal laws. Discretion can involve a simple verbal warning, issuing a citation, or making an arrest. In some instances, police officers have a wide range of discretion and may apply our legal system as they see fit. Explain your choices in this scenario by addressing the following questions: Describe what police discretion is. How is it applied? What are the key elements that most police officers utilize when they show discretion?

2. If you were a police officer, how would you use police discretion? In what circumstances would you use it? What types of crimes would you use discretion instead of a ticket or an arrest? Explain your rationale. Short answer post. No references needed.
