Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum,
Review Chapter 1: Identifying and Defining Problems of the course textbook One Step at a Time: A Roadmap for Problem Solving & Making a Difference.
Review A Closer Look: Week 1: Stating the Problem.
Read Participatory Action Research: Improving Professional Practices and Local SituationsLinks to an external site..
Select a problem you have personally seen or experienced in your community or workplace.
In this discussion forum, you will answer a series of questions to help you identify a problem you have personally seen or experienced in your community or workplace. Consider the problem carefully as you will be focused on this problem throughout the course.
In your discussion post,
Briefly describe the problem you have personally seen or experienced in your community or workplace. 
Answer the following questions, following the 5WH1 method:
What are the details of the problem?
Who is impacted by the problem?
When did this problem begin, and when could it reasonably be resolved?
Where is this problem taking place?
Why is this problem important?
How could you potentially or partially address or resolve this problem?

 
In Module 6, our focus was on a critical part of the research process: measurement. The assigned readings presented some discussion (and evidence) that illustrated how measurement is considered and refined in criminology/criminal justice. Among other attributes, we are generally concerned with the validity and reliability of our measures, which reflect accuracy in capturing real-world constructs and facilitate repeatability in future studies.
In this week’s discussion, explain how you see the issue of measurement when you read coursework or outside material related to criminal justice. What issues seem to be measured pretty well, and which ones are lacking, in your view? Does our discipline talk enough about measurement, or should it be emphasized more? And finally, if you were conducting criminology/criminal justice research, what do you think would be the MOST difficult constructs to measure?
I’m looking forward to reading your perspectives.

 Since the 1970’s, the United States has experienced unprecedented growth of incarceration. This growth has resulted in what may be referred to as “mass incarceration”. First, briefly define mass incarceration and provide some data that indicates the scope of this phenomenon. Second, argue WHY you think the U.S. has the highest incarceration rate in the world (e.g., more crime, better police, tougher laws, targeting certain groups, etc.). Finally, briefly discuss the pros and cons of the growth of incarceration and argue whether policies contributing to mass incarceration should be maintained or reformed. If you think maintained, briefly explain why. If you think reformed, please suggest one or two reforms you think may be most beneficial. 

In this course, we have been learning about the different time periods of policing. Based on the current climate, there is a level of distrust today between the police and the public. Riots, marches, and protests in response to high-profile police shootings have eroded the relationships that were built through community policing. With the hopes of improving police efficiency and finding new approaches to working together with the public, we move into a new period of policing.
Using the Internet links provided this week and your textbook look at the different periods of policing up to today. Based on the changing role and function of police officers over the years, address the questions below, ending with the current state of policing and how it is affected by technology.
Use the Policing in America Template [DOCX] Download Policing in America Template [DOCX]in which you will:
Examine different periods of policing and discuss their main strengths and weaknesses.
Identify the period of policing that you believe has had the greatest impact, and justify why you feel that is.
Explain how technology affects policing in today’s society, including both the pros and cons.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all supports. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:
Summarize the history and impact of key policing eras.

Treatment Effectiveness and Relapse
Based on Sugarman et al.’s (2020) review of interventions for incarcerated adults with opioid use disorder, why are evidence-based interventions that address both opioid use disorder and the social determinants of health needed? How do you think the criminal justice system can address social determinants of health in their treatment programs?

o wrap up our topic of police and use of force we have one more task to accomplish! Please respond to the following:
Select a real-life example of a law enforcement officer who is a positive influence in the community.
Identify three attributes of the law enforcement officer in question that make them a model of ethical behavior or a positive role model. Note: Try not to pick the easy choice like Officer Tommy Norman who has received national attention for his actions concerning the people of his community, most notably his charitable actions toward the youth within his jurisdiction.

Explain the differences between the treatment and punishment concepts.
Examine types of treatment versus types of punishment for juvenile crimes.
Build the case for which one (i.e., treatment, punishment, or combination of both) you believe has the stronger position based on your research and the specific juvenile crime to which you will apply the concepts of treatment and punishment. The crime you choose can be violent (e.g., homicide, sexual assault, etc.) or non-violent (e.g., drug possession or sales, theft, etc.).
Select your city (or state) and one other jurisdiction in the United States.
Identify the prevailing thought in your city (or state) as well as the other jurisdiction you chose (i.e., treatment, punishment, or a combination).
Analyze which of the two jurisdictions has lower recidivism rates.
Identify whether the recidivism rate is the best indicator of success or failure of treatment versus punishment philosophy.
Explain why or why not.
Examine scholarly research on the most effective strategies for reducing juvenile crime rates.
Identify which strategy or combination of strategies the research appears to support.
Identify whether it is based on type of crime.
Explain whether a given strategy works best depending upon the nature of the crime (i.e., violent vs. non-violent).
Support which juvenile justice intervention strategy would be most effective to counter the crime or criminal justice issue based on your research.
Summarize which concept (i.e., treatment, punishment, or combination) best supports the overarching concept of social justice.

Overview
Many organizations have adopted cloud computing. In this assignment, you will research cloud computing and explore its advantages and disadvantages. You will also consider best practices for adopting cloud computing, selecting a particular cloud computing service model, and assessing and mitigating security risks.
For your research, please consult Chapters 13 and 14 of your textbook and these articles:
“A Brief Review: Security Issues in Cloud Computing and Their Solutions.”
“Cloud Computing Security Risks: Identification and Assessment.”
“Cloud Computing – Recent Trends in Information Technology.”
Note: If you wish you may consult additional articles, but this is not required.
Requirements
Specifically, you will write a 3 pages paper in which you:
Outline the planning process that needs to be in place before adopting cloud computing.
Be sure to identify the stakeholders who need to be involved and the discussions that need to take place.
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of cloud computing.
Describe the methodology you would use to select a cloud computing service model.
Review the security risks and mitigation activities that need to take place before adopting cloud computing.
Go to Basic Search: Strayer University Online Library to locate and integrate into the assignment at least three quality, peer-reviewed academic resources, written within the past five years.
Include your textbook as one of your resources.
Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.
