Use the communitycrimemap.com website at http://communitycrimemap.com/ to find data, analytics, and metadata for a specific community or jurisdiction. Use the filters on the left side of the map to narrow or expand your search.
In a 1,000-1,250-word paper, complete the following:
- Describe the data that you found.
- Identify any trends over a period of time. For example burglaries by 13-18-year-old teens over a 5-year period in a specific jurisdiction, neighborhood, or community.
- Describe a problem that you want to address through a community violence initiative.
- Use theories of criminality to describe how the initiative will reduce violence and improve the quality of life within the community.
- Use two to three additional resources that support the need for addressing the problem through a community violence initiative.
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
