This student guide together with an instructor guide comprise a set of curriculum materials on the criminal justice system. The student guide contains self-contained instructional material that students can study at their own pace most of the time. Six major subject areas or blocks, which are further broken down into several units, with some units having several sections, are included. The four blocks are (1) law enforcement system (history, code of ethics, constitutional law and law enforcement operations, law enforcement operations, report writing); (2) the courts (court system, criminal justice process, criminal law, juvenile courts); (3) corrections (history, government corrections systems, prison society, probation and parole, jail operations and treatment programs, juvenile corrections); (4) community relations (human relations, crime prevention); (5) proficiency skills (physical fitness, combative and defensive tactics, police short baton, riot response tactics, basic police weapons, rescue tactics); and (6) criminalistics (basic forensic examinations, basic forensic photography, fingerprint technology). Each unit's (or section's) components include introduction, objectives, text, review questions, and/or practical exercise. (YLB)
