JOURNAL ARTICLE REVIEW: ACTIVE SHOOTER
ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
Active shooter incidents have proliferated both in schools and other public places in recent years. Since the shooting at Columbine High School in 1999, the FBI has recorded dozens of shootings at all types of schools involving students, former students, and others not affiliated with the school. Active shooters date back even further back and include the University of Texas tower shootings in 1966. Charles Whitman killed 11 and wounded 31 more after killing his wife and mother. In 1991, George Hennard drove his truck into a Luby's Cafeteria in Texas, shot and killed 23 people, wounding 27 more. More recently, in 2017 Stephen Paddock killed 60 and wounded over 400 concert goers from a Las Vegas hotel room. Omar Mateen killed 49 people at an Orlando nightclub in 2016. These shootings, added to the 2012 massacre in Newtown, CTand the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007, create a significant challenge to responding law enforcement officers. Solo entry is one of the more contentious policy issues that arise from active shooters. The implications to law enforcement training and practice are enormous; we live in a country where freedom is the most treasured right. How does law enforcement crisis response preserve those freedoms while developing a measured and effective response to active shooting situations? What are the non-negotiables in terms of policy and practice? Consider these questions as you complete this week's article review.
INSTRUCTIONS
For this assignment, you will select a peer reviewed journal article from one of the databases located in the University's online library. The article will relate in some way to the reading material (use of force) you havereviewedfor this particular module. After you read the article, download the Journal Article Review Template. Then, complete a Journal Article Review for the article you read. You are not reviewing the article in the sense that you are assessing it, but rather you are reviewing it so you can provide analysis and relate to your reader the main point and how they relate to the area of crisis intervention. The assignment is not to be too much shorter or longer than the example in the template.Ensure that you focus on the critical thinking piece of discussing implications the article has on criminal justice as this is the most important aspect of this process. How does the article's content relate to the field of law enforcement? How does it influence policy and practice? This can be accomplished in the comments, recommendations, and conclusion sections of the assignment. Use an APA citation for the article you choose; you may provide additional reference support if you choose to, but it is not required.
Problem
Microcomputers are being used for a variety of purposes, but research about their instructional effectiveness lags behind adoption rates for the technology. Further, there is a limited research base about the effects of microcomputers in vocational agriculture on learning in the affective, cognitive, and psychomotor domains. The research base is even more shallow when effects of testing students by computer technology are explored.
Comments: The problem statements agreed with the title and seemed to be of educational significance. The problem was not clearly visible to the average reader, and it required several readings to establish why the researchers felt this study needed to be done. It was limited to the researchers' capabilities and resources.
The recommendations were limited to a call for additional research in the area. What are the student's recommendations for future research and how would it impact crisis intervention in law enforcement?
