Imagine that you are being considered for a job with a local adolescent behavioral program that specializes in helping teenagers who have experienced minor encounters with the law.
You’ve been called back for a second interview and their employee search committee has asked you to develop a presentation about the criminal justice system and the juvenile justice system in your community.
You need to research the topic and prepare a visually appealing PowerPoint slideshow to accompany your presentation. Your PowerPoint slideshow will need to:
Have a title slide that includes the name of your community.
Contain 6-9 content slides.
Address the following questions:
How does poverty play a role in the criminal justice system?
How does mental illness play a role in the criminal justice system?
How does the criminal justice system approach adolescents/children who break the law?
How does the criminal justice system approach adults who break the law?
In your opinion, what would be one improvement that could be made to the criminal justice system?
Be written using proper spelling/grammar.
Cite at least 3 academic references and present the sources in APA format on a References slide.
| When developing a presentation, it’s important to be mindful of how you layout your content. The slides should present key points, arranged in a logical manner, without extraneous information contributing to a cluttered look. Using the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint is a great way to include relevant details to be shared during your presentation without overloading the slides. |
