Imagine that a new education program was created to service inmates who do not hold a high school diploma. The inmate population is approximately 1500 on any given day, and only 10 percent are serving life sentences. The majority of inmates will be released within 3 years, and the average age of the inmate population is 19.
Since this is not a mandatory program, how should programmers determine the number of General Education Development (GED) instructors to hire?
What factors should be considered in determining the number of instructors hired to staff the education program? Should there be any restrictions in terms of inmate eligibility?

People break laws every day and, in many cases, without thinking about it. Have you ever broken a law? Have you ever thrown an egg at a house? Have you ever done anything that would leave you subject to criminal prosecution?
For this first discussion, you will introduce yourself to your peers and discuss what makes a person a criminal.
Complete the following in your initial post:
In your first paragraph, introduce yourself to your classmates by answering the following:
Who are you, and what do you do?
Why are you interested in criminal justice?
Do you have any professional background related to criminology?
In your second paragraph, based on the resources in this module, explain what you believe to be the definition of a criminal. Consider the following:
Is anyone who breaks a law a criminal?
What is deviance?
What is the difference between deviant behavior and criminal behavior?
In each of your two peer responses, choose peers whose explanation is different from your own. Consider the differences in your responses. Was there anything they cited that you may not have considered? Always remember to be respectful when replying to peers, even if you do not agree with their stance or rationale.

Week 1 Project: (Final Project Assignment) Problem Identification
Study the Final Project scenario carefully. Your first task is to analyze the problem and develop a plan for need analysis. In this problem identification document, please include the following information:
How would you document the need for change? What data would you collect and analyze in order to define the problem?
What do you believe may cause or be causes of the problem? Identify relevant research that supports your claim. For example, look at the literature on police brutality, police harassment, police corruption, or police-community problems.
Identify relevant stakeholders. Who might be affected by the problem? What is their interest in the problem?
Identify who is likely to support a certain course of action and who is likely to resist it? Present these barriers and supports for change in a force field analysis diagram.
Make certain that you support your analysis with proper reasoning and research data. Use structured text like bolding, headings, bulleted lists, and charts/tables where appropriate to increase the clarity of your communication.

Week 5 Project: Hurricane Katrina Evaluation and Recommendations
In this second assignment, you will apply what you learned in this course to evaluate the Katrina response and make recommendations. Fully cover the following required topics:
Evaluations: Identify the specific policies and procedures which failed during Hurricane Katrina. Address how governmental policies failed to protect the citizens of New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. Be sure to consider all levels of government, not just federal.
Conclusion and recommendations: Provide at least two viable strategies you would recommend to government officials and agencies to prevent the likelihood of a similar disaster preparedness failure from occurring again. Be sure that your recommendations are legal and realistic.
Comparison: Compare the Katrina response against the response to “Super Storm Sandy” in 2012. In what ways did the governments improve over Katrina?
Lessons for crisis management: Analyze how the lessons and procedures related to hurricane response can apply to other aspects of crisis management. How can these techniques be deployed in the battle against the Covid-19 virus, for instance?
