Module 1 Reading Review
This assignment has three parts. Please follow the directions below. Please upload your paper here.
Part 1 – Exercise: Ethics in Criminal Justice: Screen and share a short video or a current news item on any Ethics in Criminal Justice topic you can find and one that is also interesting to you. Determine how it relates to our readings. Then discuss how your example relates by using at least ONE of the possible ten discussion questions found at the end of Chapter 3, Page 83. This portion of your review should be about one double-spaced page or about 250 words.
Part 2 – Research Brief: Next, you will be responsible for collecting a contemporary (last 5-10 years) peer-reviewed research article example that you will use to illustrate a point that you can draw out from the ethical issue identified above. For example, maybe you want to provide some insight into illicit drug dealing by correctional officers in prisons. This portion should be written in “brief” format. It must contain the following sections: 1) the source (cite the source using APA style); 2) what the main question(s)/point(s) is/are – and how it relates to your topic (a paragraph or two); 3) a brief description of the research methodology (e.g. interviews or observations, the who, what, when, where, etc.; three -four sentences will likely do here); and, 4) an overview of the findings and conclusions (probably a couple/few paragraphs). This part of your assignment should be no less than a page and a half and no more than two pages, double spaced, or about 400-500 words.
Part 3 – Reflection: This is your opportunity to reflect and share your thoughts and opinions on your chosen topic. There is no right or wrong answer here – I would just like to provide you the opportunity to share any insight, thoughts, opinions, and questions, you might have. This section should be between three-quarters and one-page in length, or about 250 words.
In all, the written portion of this assignment, which you will upload here, should be no less than three to no more than four pages in length, double spaced. Please use 12pt Times New Roman font and standard 1″ margins. Please note: efforts to make more look less or less look more will negatively impact your grade. APA formatting should always be followed, including and especially proper citation and references.

I keep thinking that this is a Child Development class and that we have talked about how social and environmental factors impact all areas of development. We have talked about malnutrition and how it can cause life-long problems, about the impact of poor schools on children’s academic success, about how early relationships and attachment contribute to psychosocial well-being. And I keep thinking that this is an incredible time not just in our lives but in history.
After nine months we are still relatively isolated and many schools are still closed. We can only speculate when it will end and what will happen next. If we step back and look at this current situation we see that all parts of the environment are impacted. How will children and their families be affected?
I have always included the impact of the environment on all developmental domains on the final exam. The question was: How do social and environmental factors impact the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development of children in the early years (0-6 years)? and I let students give their own examples.
[That question matched up with this Student Learning Outcome: Analyze how cultural, economic, political, historical contexts affect children’s development.]
I have modified the question to reflect the current environment. Please address all domains of development (physical, cognitive, psychosocial) in your answer.
Your answer should be at least two-three pages long.
Final Question:
How do you think current factors (Covid-19, the pandemic response, and its effects) might impact children’s development (physical, cognitive, psychosocial) in the near future and long term?
You can include children of any age (0-18 years).
In considering how to answer look at the Bioecological Models on page 27 and page 584.
There are many ways to answer this question including your personal experiences and what you have observed. Be sure to link what’s happening with what you think may, or may not, happen in the future. Remember that the passage of time is part of the environment.
