Discussion Guidelines
Students must answer the questions posed and post their answer
on the Active Learning
Discussion Board. The student will discuss his or her thoughts
on the information that has been
posted and discuss its relevance and implications to the field of
criminal justice. The student’s
3
remarks can be opinion, but it must be based on his or her own
experience, research, and/or
prior learning. Of particular interest is a dialogue of opinions,
thoughts, and comments.
The initial post must be no less than 200 words and is due no
later than Thursday 11:59 PM
EST/EDT. The day the student posts this will count as one of
the required three unique
postings.
The responsive posts must be no less than 100 words and are
due no later than Sunday 11:59
PM EST/EDT.
The student will respond with substantive feedback in

responsive posts to a minimum of TWO
(2) of his or her classmates’ posts. Substantive feedback
requires a well-reasoned critique of the
student’s analysis and thought processes. Comment such as
“Good job! I really like what you
said and agree with you 100%!” are NOT substantive feedback.
Responsive posts filled with
platitudes, compliments and agreements are NOT substantive
and will have points reduced.
Responses to the instructor’s questions are NOT one of the two
required responsive posts.
State whether the student provided adequate support for any
assertions that he or she may
have made. If the student disagrees, he or she must provide
facts or a well-reasoned argument
to support a dissenting opinion.
Reaction Papers
A Reaction Paper is designed to develop and sharpen your
critical thinking and writing skills.
Your objective in writing this assignment is to define an issue
clearly and to formulate and
clarify your position on that issue by reacting to a controversial
statement.
ALL OF THE CONTROVERSIAL STATEMENTS ARE FOUND
IN THE REACTION PAPER GUIDELINES DOCUMENT.
DO NOT USE THE CONTROVERSIAL STATEMENTS
FOUND
IN THE ONLINE SLIDES!
THERE ARE NO REWRITES.

Each of the five papers is worth 4% of the course grade. The
paper must be at least 250 words,
excluding the title page and reference page, and must adhere to
the APA writing format, but
no abstract is required. NOTE: submission of the minimum
amount of work demonstrates a
minimum amount of research and writing effort and will seldom
result in more than a
minimum passing grade. Please reference the APA example
given in the Resources section. If
your paper does not comply with this format you will lose
points. Please see the grading rubric
in the Reaction Paper Guidelines in the Course Home menu.
You MUST cite to at least two
references. You can NOT cite to your text book. Using the
minimum number of references
demonstrates only the minimum amount of research and will not
earn all possible points.

Turnitin.com Similarity Score
The Turn It In similarity score MUST be 15% or lower or five
(5) points will be deducted for
the first occurrence. You may rewrite the first (and only the
first) paper with an excessive TII

score IF YOU HAVE A PHONE CONFERENCE WITH THE
INSTRUCTOR with two business days of
the posted grade to learn how to avoid the problem in future
papers. Failure to rewrite the
paper or any subsequent excessive TII score will result in a loss
of 10 points. A TII SCORE IN
EXCESS OF 30% WILL RESULT IN A GRADE OF ZERO FOR
THAT PAPER.
Each Reaction paper should be submitted to the Dropbox no
later than Sunday 11:59 PM
EST/EDT of the module in which it is due. (Dropbox baskets for
these assignments are linked to
Turnitin.)

submitted by you in any other class the paper will receive a
grade of “F” for the class without
further consideration. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that
you pay attention to the TII
report and revise the paper as necessary to avoid
misrepresentation. You may use no more
than 15% of others quoted work when completing any

IX. ACADEMIC HONOR CODE
The Academic Honor Code is published in its entirety in the
Saint Leo University Catalog. The
first paragraph is quoted below:
Saint Leo University holds all students to the highest standards
of honesty and personal
integrity in every phase of their academic life. All students
have a responsibility to uphold the
Academic Honor Code by refraining from any form of academic
misconduct, presenting only
work that is genuinely their own, and reporting any observed
instance of academic dishonesty
to a faculty member.
Academic Dishonesty:
Academic dishonesty is representing another’s work as one’s
own, active complicity in such
falsification, or violating test conditions. Plagiarism is stealing
and passing of the ideas and
words of another as one’s own or using the work of another
without crediting the source.
The sanctions for academic dishonesty such as cheating on an
examination, plagiarism, forgery
of academic documents (including signing another’s name), the
copying of computer programs
or information, and similar offenses are as follows:
1. The minimum sanction for the first offense is an “F” for the
test or assignment, but the
usual sanction is an “F” in the course where the violation took
place.
2. The minimum sanction for the second offense is an “F” in

the course, but the usual
sanction is suspension of the student from St. Leo University.
No previously submitted papers, articles, reports or projects, in
whole or in part, to any
university or college will be accepted.
It is the responsibility of every member of the faculty and
student body to cooperate in
supporting the Honor Code. Academic misconduct includes but
is not limited to the following
categories:
Cheating
-Providing or receiving academic work to or from another
student without the permission of
the instructor/professor.
-Buying or selling academic work.
-Violating test conditions.
-Forging academic documents.
-Copying computer programs.
Plagiarism
-Stealing and passing off the ideas and words of another as
one's own or using the work of
another without crediting the source whether that source is
authored by a professional or a
peer.
-Submitting an article or quoted material from a periodical or
the internet as one’s own.
-Retyping or re-titling another student's paper and handing it in
as one’s own.
-Intentionally or unintentionally failing to cite a source.

14
Complicity
-Helping another student commit an act of academic dishonesty.
Misrepresentation
-Resubmitting previous work, in whole or in part, for a current
assignment without the written
consent of the current instructor(s).
-Having another student complete one’s own assignments,
quizzes, or exams.
-Lying to a professor.
-Fabricating a source.
X. ATTENDANCE POLICY: This is an online class and
students are solely responsible for
maintaining a schedule that allows for sufficient time to
complete all assignments successfully.
XI. LATE WORK / MAKE UP POLICY:
No papers, assignments, test, or other required work will be
accepted late. All assignments
are due during the week identified in the syllabus or modules
and must be posted to the
designated discussion board. Assignments posted after 11:59
PM EST/EDT on the required
due date or posted to the incorrect discussion board will not
receive credit or will receive
significantly reduced credit at the discretion of the instructor.
If you require an extension, you must notify the professor in
writing before the due date of

the assignment. Extensions are only granted based on
reasonable circumstances when the
extension is requested at least 24 hours prior to the due date of
the assignment.
If you or an immediate family member are hospitalized and
prevented from completing an
assignment, a doctor’s note (NOT A NURSE OR ANYONE
ELSE) or official documentation
(military orders) must be promptly submitted to the professor. A
death in the family requires
an official notice listing you as a relative. If you submit your
work after the deadline and you
do not have permission to do so you will receive a zero for the
assignment(s). Exceptions
must be documented in writing by the student and acceptance is
at the discretion of the
professor.
Military personnel unable to complete an assignment by the due
date and time due to
deployment must present written proof of deployment in order
to have their assignment
graded.
XII. STUDENT MISCONDUCT/CLASSROOM DISRUPTION:
Saint Leo University students are expected to conduct
themselves at all times in accord with
good taste and observe the regulations of the University and the
laws of the city, state, and
national government. All University community members—
faculty, staff, employees,
students—have the right and obligation to report violations …
