Students
are to write a 10 – 12 page research paper on an important ethical subject
where they develop and ethics policy. In essence, you have the opportunity to
solve an ethical dilemma on a grand scale. Students should identify an ethical
topic they are interested in studying and create a policy and/or a
recommendation to a state governing agency about how this ethical issue should
be handled moving forward. Your choices should be fueled by empirical research
and scholarly sources on the subject. This ethical issue will impact more than
just your own individual self—it will affect the lives of all those across the
state or even the country. Your job is to write a research paper for
the state governor to use as the basis for his/her decision on this issue.
As you write your paper, consider the moral rules that
will support your decision. 
General structure of your policy analysis 
1. Conduct a brief review/synopsis of the
relevant facts. 
2. Identify what you believe to be the major
ethical issues and the relevant underlying values of each opposing side. 
3. Set forth your recommendations for the
continued use, modification, or discontinuation of this policy. Your decision
must have some sort of rationale behind it. This is where you will present an
answer to the policy issue at hand. Before you can do this, you will have to
decide on what ethical system underlies your analysis. There is no right/wrong
system of ethics—choose the one with which you most closely identify. If you
are a utilitarian, your stance may be very different than if you identify with
ethical formalism or an ethic of care. But, as we know from our class
exercises, despite our different ethical systems, we may encounter the same
results. 
Please adhere to
these directives:
Organization: Title
page, Abstract, Introduction, Body of the Paper, Conclusion.
The papers should have a brief introduction,
appropriate transitions between topic areas, and a short conclusion. I am
interested in each student’s ability to craft an organized approach to an
ethical issue in criminal justice. Synthesize the literature on the
subject and critically assess the ethical issue.
Substance: Each student should be able to
craft a well-reasoned ethical argument. Since we will be addressing
“hot” topics of current debate, emotions will run high. However,
please try to support your argument with more than just emotion. Where
appropriate, essays should draw from course readings, lectures, and discussions
particular to the subject matter. 
References: Consult at least
five (5) outside peer reviewed sources to complete this assignment (the course
readings do not count). Please consider the five-source requirement as
establishing the baseline; students seeking higher grades are advised to
broaden their research. 
THESE MUST BE PEER REVIEWED SOURCES 

Module 01 Content
Scenario
You are a member of a committee at work looking to inform their employees about a new campaign focused on the importance of exercise and healthy choices. The committee has been tasked to provide information to a design team that will develop a visual campaign. Your role is to provide the information and recommendations to the design team about the benefits (physical, emotional, etc.) of exercise.
You are aware that one way to catch the eye of viewers is to utilize the concepts of color, line, and balance in striking, memorable ways. You will provide this information to the design team.
Assessment Instructions:
Using Microsoft Word, write a recommendation to the design team, focused on informing employees of the benefits of exercise. The proposal should address the following:
Explain your understanding of color, line, and balance and why these are important sensory elements to include in the campaign.
Describe the strategic use of color and provide three (3) example images of how color should be used in the campaign.
Explain the strategic use of line and provide three (3) example images of how line should be used in the campaign.
Explain the strategic use of balance and provide three (3) example images of how balance should be used in the campaign.
The entire recommendation is no more than three (3) pages in length, following proper APA writing guidelines. It must include research from three (3) or more sources with proper APA formatting for reference and in-text citations.

Objective: Analysis
of a key research question emerging from the course.
Length: 15-20

For this assignment, you are required to write
a research paper that addresses one specific research question inspired by the
contents and themes of this course. The choice of research question is up to
you. However, it must relate to a specific type of corporate harm – either one
covered during course, or one of your own choosing – and it must address one or
more of the following themes: (1) the invisibility of harmful corporate
practices; (2) the various causes of corporate harms; and (3) the strategies and
challenges in regulating corporate activities. Based on your selected topic and
research question, the bulk of the paper will be based on your review of
available research on the particular harm in question. In the course of your
analysis, you must incorporate at least eight
outside academic sources. These must include books and/or journal
articles. Newspaper and magazine articles, government reports, textbooks, and
Internet sites are valuable sources of information and may be used to
supplement your research; however, they will not be counted towards the
required eight academic sources. Be sure to properly reference all outside
sources using the guidelines outlined below. 
these are the instructions from the syllabus. The sources I have attached are from the course. feel free to use any of these and please find and use atleast 8 outside academic sources for the paper.

Each answer must provide good content and demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of the specific theory. Each response should be a minimum of 100 words. Proper grammar, spelling, and writing is expected. You may use the resources provided in the course or utilize outside sources such as peer reviewed articles.
1. Summarize General Strain Theory and the components that are affiliated with this theory. Provide examples.
2. Summarize Social Control Theory and the components that are affiliated with this theory. Provide examples.
3. Summarize Social Learning Theory and the components that are affiliated with this theory. Provide examples.

Students will submit a written report of their data collection findings and discuss the analysis of data. This should include a synopsis of the results, analysis methods used and a discussion of these findings. This assignment requires that you summarize how you will collect the data you will use for your research project. There are several types of data available. Data Collection
Science is an empirical enterprise. That means that it is data based. There are two ways that we collect data:
we observe people and use our observations as data, and
we ask people questions and use what they tell us as data.
Sometimes surveys are referred to as sample surveys because we select a sample of individuals from the population and ask them questions. Then we use their answers to these questions as our data. Surveys can take various forms:
in-person interviews,
mailed questionnaires,
telephone surveys, and
web-based surveys.
Error is inevitable whenever we study something. Since we can’t eliminate all error our goal is to minimize error. Error can enter into a survey in various ways.
Sampling error occurs when we select a sample from a population. No sample is a perfect representation of a population.
Coverage error occurs when the list of the population from which we select our sample does not perfectly match the population. For example, about 98% of all households in the United States have a telephone (either landline or cell or both). So when we do a telephone survey we fail to cover about 2% of all households.
Nonresponse error occurs when we fail to reach the entire sample. This type of error can occur in two ways – refusals and the failure to contact some individuals in the sample.
Measurement error occurs when our measures of some concept fall short in some way. For example, the way we word our survey questions can introduce error. It turns out that it matters a great deal whether we refer to global warming or climate change when we ask people questions.
Our survey design should clearly describe how we plan to collect our data. We should consider the different ways that error might enter into the data and how we will try to minimize that error.

one paragraph per discussion. they’re all numbered and would like about 150 words each. in the pdf untitled 18 it has everything

You will create this assignment following the Assignment Detail instructions below.
Review the tutorial How to Submit an Individual Project.
Assignment Details
Prepare a written analytical report (3–4 pages) on any juvenile delinquency treatment program in any community of your choice. Assess the juvenile delinquency program that you selected to improve it or perhaps add more programs to supplement and support it. Many communities want alternatives to incarceration like community outreach, counseling, and after school jobs for juveniles, but may not know if programs like these are successful.
Your report should include the following:
What is the name of the program you are assessing?
Where is the program located?
Have there been any studies completed on the effectiveness of the program you are reviewing for the assignment? What were the results of these studies? If no studies were done, would this have been informative?
What (if any) positive impact is the program providing for the community and the delinquents?
Will the program help to curb juvenile delinquency? Why?
What are the negative aspects of the program you reviewed?
Give specific suggestions for improving the program (“none” is not an appropriate answer here; there are always manners in which programs can be improved).
Explain your reasoning for supporting or eliminating the program.
Be sure to reference all sources using APA style.

This literature review is based on young women aged 18-25 using public transportation and how they feel about their safety while using it. 
3 key targets to look for:
1. ‘How
do young women perceive their safety while using public transportation?
2. Do women
run into challenges when using public transportation in terms of their
safety?
3. Does the time-of-day matter when it’s regarding their safety on public transportation?
– analyse and highlight key issues
– summarize and evalute 
– build an argument/ develop an argument 
– what is the literature telling us and where are the gaps
– connect the literatures 
6 questions to think about: (Academic articles, journals, books)
1. What was researched on? 
2. When did they do it? (make sure its fairly recent)
3. Where did they do it? 
4. How was the data collected?
5. From whom was the data collected?
6. Why was the data collected
Please include any other relevant theories that might explain why young women might not be reporting about their safety issues when using public transportation. some to use are:
– Routine activity theory
– broken windows theory
– feminist theory
– power control theory 
(incorporate these theories please) 
– all citations need to be directly quoted and not paraphrased. 
– citations should include page number
– all sources must be academic – articles/journals/books/stats etc.
