Today's schedule is B-AG-A-D-C
B Block Law 12 - Today we'll end our look at Criminal Law. I'll need you to finish Monday's work
on empanneling juries and trial proceedures and Tuesday's work on sentencing and
punishment. I'll give you a super quick review for Friday's quiz/test.
A & C Blocks Social Studies 10 - Today will be another work day for your Ole Bill Coot storyboarding assignment
that is due this Friday. I have examples up in the classroom for you to view and
I have paper for you to build your storyboards on. Please use your time wisely
this week - today will be the last class where I will dedicate the entire block
for you to work on the project. Tomorrow and Friday I will give you time to
work on the project, but I'll have other things for you to work on as well so
that time is dedicated more for cut, colour and glue.

D Block Law 9/10 - Since we're looking at profiling...I'll have you try to build a criminal profile
of a computer hacker. I'd like you to read through the section in your class
text (handout) on “geographic profiling” and then using the information about
organized criminals on page 7 of your handout, try to build a profile of a
person who commits criminal mischief (computer hacking) in the class. Complete
this as a “dossier file” and imagine that it will be provided to the computer
forensics department of the local R.C.M.P. detachment. Here is some information
about hackers to add to your profile.
From the article Psychological Profile of Network Intruder by
Dragan Pleskonjic, Veljko Milutinovic, Nemanja Macek, Borislav Djordjevic and
Marko Caric
A hacker is defined as a person who knowledgeably use
computer to avoid rules and restrictions. All kinds of network intruders can
also be called hackers. A simple conclusion can be made - hacking is about
respect, reputation and acknowledgment. Any individual might be tempted to
believe that hackers are very altruistic, do serve the environment and are
socially engaged. Hackers try to solve interesting problems, and they learn to
keep score primarily by what other hackers think of their skill.
Hackers
are more or less anonymous so it is not easy to provide detailed information
about their activity and motivation. Does the very fact that they spend much
time using computer for activities not considered to be scientific but yet
involving curiosity, suggests their personality? Is the choice of their interest
caused by their inner disharmony? Regarding the amount of damage they caused,
rough answer would often be yes! However, we should emphasize once again that it
difficult to properly classify all those invading network systems.
• most
of computer users are white males aging 12-28 years
• most of hackers have a
good repertoire of social skills
• the term middle-class is meaningless, for
most computer users considers themselves members of
middle-class
Intrusion in the network system requires skill, creativity
and very often the ability to deceive other people. It can be classified as a
mixture of computer skills and psychology. In any case, it would be person who
uses the secrets of his trade to make all kinds of manipulations. It does not
necessarily mean that he deceives everybody and everyone, but it definitely
means that in many situations he feels relieved of moral responsibility for his
actions. Moreover, he would often justify them. Hackers are likely to practice
their profession until the age of thirty after which time most of them willingly
leave such way of life. This comes in support of a profile of typical young
burglar who is not critical enough of his actions. The fact that they are young
and reckless, however, cannot fully justify such behavior A hacker is
particularly inspired by the opportunity to commit a crime of theft without
being physically present. Even the reward can come by itself. The ones who steal
are called thieves. The ones who cause damage to the property are called
destructive.
After, we'll finish our look at profiling by examining
Geographic profiling. I'll ask you to brainstorm a list of locations in the
Comox Valley that you feel crime will be more prevalent in and you'll have to
justify your reasoning. For more on Geographic profiling check out:
