Homework: Juvenile Delinquincy- PowerPoint Presentation
Prompt
For this homework, you will compare and contrast the nature and extent of delinquency as seen through official statistics on one hand and self-report, victim survey, and police observational studies on the other.
Part A
Research one official (UCR and/or NIBRS) and one unofficial (NVS and/or self-report) source of delinquency statistics to identify the strengths and weaknesses for each source. To assist with the required data, here is a link to the most recent National Report on Youth and the Juvenile System 2022 (You must use this source for this homework)
1. (Puzzanchera, Charles, Hockenberry, Sarah, and Sickmund, Melissa, December 2022 ).
Part B
Using the information from your research
1. Create an infographic that you would use in a presentation to constituents in your community relevant to reform initiatives for the state's juvenile justice system.
2. Explain the advantages and disadvantages for each specific data collection source by using examples and citing cases from the resource link provided above.
Create the Infographic using the template of your choice and the data of your choice, that portrays the strengths and weaknesses of your official and unofficial data source. Your Infographic can contain any information that you wish and should have at least five points of discussion or interest for each side; five points for the strengths side and five points for the weakness side. Beyond those guidelines you can approach the homework anyway you wish and be as creative as you like.
