Monday, June 7. 2010

Today's schedule is C-D-Lunch-B-A

C - Criminology 12 - Today you have the class to finish any missing blog entries that you have yet to complete for assessment. The blog topics and dates are:

Blog # 7 (Monday, May 31st) Can Corporations Commit Murder?
Blog # 6 (Tuesday, May 25th) Auto Theft
Blog # 5 (Tuesday, May 18th) Clifford Olson & Marc Lepine
Blog # 4 (Monday, May 10th) Sexual Assault
Blog # 3 (Monday, May 3rd) Short & Long term Impacts of Crime Victims
Blog # 2 (Monday, April 26th) Crime and Deviance
Blog # 1 (Tuesday, April 20th) Personal Theory of Crime Causation

If you're finished all of your blog entries then you can begin to research your seminar topic. Instead of an essay or a survey of criminological theory worksheet I thought I'd give you the opportunity to spend some time looking at something that really interests you in Criminology. So basically I'd like to have a seminar on Monday and Tuesday where you have up to five minutes to present information on a criminology topic to the class. You can look at a specific crime, a specific criminal, a specific criminological theory, a criminal justice & enforcement technique that reduces crime, or any other criminological topic but it really should be of interest to you.

So if you're really interested in gangs you can choose that (what they do, how they do it, where they operate). If you're really interested in a specific gang you can choose that (the Hells Angels or the Bandidos). If you're really interested in how police infiltrate gangs you can choose that.

What should this look like? You'll have five minutes and you can use either your blog or powerpoint or some web based resource for graphic information. Tell the class what you found out about your topic and why it interests you.

B - Social Studies 10 - Today you have your Western History unit final test. If you studied and are prepared then I'm certain you will do fine. If there's time, we will mark the first two sections of the test together in class. You do have a project to hand in to me today. It is crucial that you get your Canadian Pacific Railway book handed in to me. If, for some reason, you cannot get your assignment in to me today you must come and talk with me to avoid a zero. Considering this is a major project I hope you realize the importance of its completion. Good Luck and my daughter awaits your stories.

A - Earth & Space Science 11 - Today we'll take the class to finish up the Atmosphere / Weather worksheets 1-3 that we started last Thursday. You need to finish these today as tomorrow we start astronomy and space science.
