BE SURE to review these formatting requirements.Good Luck!1. Corrections has always struggled with conflicting goals. Identify at least 3 corrections goals (e.g., rehabilitation, deterrence, incapacitation, retribution, etc.) and explain how they fight against one another. How can this conflict be minimized? Is it possible that this goal conflict may actually be good for corrections? 2. Discuss the historical development of parole and indeterminate sentencing. Do either have a place in the current correctional climate or would we be better off to abolish them? Defend your answer.3. Twenty-five years ago, the “three P’s”—probation, prisons, and parole—dominated correctional practice. Today all kinds of activities come under the heading of corrections. Identify at least three other practices or programs that are considered part of corrections. Discuss how their existence has fostered the growth of corrections.4. Women are often referred to as “the forgotten offenders.” Discuss how they have come to receive this title. Be sure to discuss in what ways are they forgotten and the way that sexism has impacted the experiences of women offenders. Be sure to bring in material from both the text and the assigned videos.5. Discuss what is meant when it is said that corrections has an ambiguous mission. Be sure to discuss what role this mission plays and how the ambiguity of this mission affects the system. Be sure to also discuss what the public, offenders, victims and communities want from corrections and whether these competing desires can be reconciled?6. The method by which someone is executed in the United States has changed over time. Identify at least 3 methods and place them in temporal order. Why does the method change? Why does the method matter? Does changing the method address any of the arguments that surround capital punishment? When answering this question, be sure to bring in material from the videos, as well as the course text. _____________________________________________________________________________Writing GuidelinesYour essay exam will be graded on your ability to present and analyze important issues in a clear and concise manner, as well as structure and grammar.
