Module 6 No-prep Journal

Q Each no-prep journal is based on your pre-existing knowledge. You don’t need to read anything in the module before completing it. I am just interested in your thoughts about the topics we are about to embark on. This week’s main topic is how research can help with crime prevention. Write a 2-3 paragraph short essay answering the following questions: • o What do you know about crime prevention programs? o What would be the best way to evaluate whether a crime prevention program works (i.e., reduces crime or recidivism)? o What do you think 'evidence-based' means? Only you and the instructor/TA will be able to see journal entries. They are graded based on how thoughtful and to-the-point they are.
