explaining why AAPI individuals have been the targets of hate crimes. This opportunity will be in the form of a modified Theory Journal Entry.

You may use the same theory as you used in Theory Journal 2 (be sure to check my feedback!), but need to use the hate crimes against AAPI as the current event this time. You can earn up to 15 points of extra credit for this opportunity.

1) Identify ONE specific theory (The Theory we are using is Differential Opportunity Theory which is explained below) and the associated theorist(s) from the relevant course section, then summarize IN DETAIL how the theory explains deviant/criminal/criminal justice behavior. This should be your LONGEST section.

2) Provide a “tweet” summarizing Step 1 using only 144 characters (or less). You DO NOT actually have to tweet your summary or have a Twitter account. (Basically Summarize Step 1 in 144 words or less)

3) Create a concept map of the theoretical process that you described in Steps 1 & 2. (Example in PDF Below)

4) Identify or create and briefly discuss some criminal justice policies/practices based on your theory that could have prevented the current event you found for Step 4 above. The more policies/practices you discuss, the better

I’m working on a law discussion question and need support to help me understand better.

Imagine you work for a police agency and you have been asked to prepare a short guide on forces in society that cause police agencies to change. The guide will be used to help officers be aware of why policies and practices change over time, so they will be more accommodating to changes in the future.

Create an 8-10 slide PowerPoint or Prezi presentation that does the following:

• Research and explain how socioeconomic forces of change affect police agencies. Give examples and cite sources that support your claims.
• Research and explain how social values of the community affect police agencies. Give examples and cite sources that support your claims.
• Research and explain how grass-roots organizations affect community change. Give examples and cite sources that support your claims.
• Explain some best practices police agencies can use to manage political forces and relationships with the various stakeholders to whom they are accountable.

Superpump Limited (“Superpump”) is a company based in Aberdeen, Scotland that supplies major items of plant and equipment for the offshore oil and gas industry.

Superpump has learned that a rival company, Pumps-R-Us Limited (“Pumps-R-Us”), has started supplying a high-pressure pump (the Pumps-R-Us-Turbo) that is extraordinarily similar to Superpump’s own Superpump DBX.Upon investigation, they discover that Pumps-R-Us are the current employers of Maurice, who was the head of Superpump’s Research and Design department at the time the Superpump DBX was developed. Maurice was never an employee with Superpump but worked with them as a contractor for three years.Superpump has checked their copy of the written contract for the provision of services that existed between it and Maurice.The contract says nothing about who will be the owner of any intellectual property rights developed.
