This instructor guide together with a student guide comprise a set of curriculum materials on the criminal justice system. The instructor guide is a resource for planning and managing individualized, competency-based instruction in six major subject areas or blocks, which are further broken down into several units with some units having several sections. The blocks are (1) law enforcement system (history, code of ethics, constitutional law and law enforcement operations, law enforcement operations, report writing); (2) the courts (court system, criminal justice process, criminal law, juvenile courts); (3) corrections (history, government corrections systems, prison society, probation and parole, jail operations and treatment programs, juvenile corrections); (4) community relations (human relations, crime prevention); (5) proficiency skills (physical fitness, combative and defensive tactics, police short baton, riot response tactics, basic police weapons, rescue tactics); and (6) criminalistics (basic forensic examinations, basic forensic photography, fingerprint technology). Each unit (or section) provides these components: objectives; instructional guide (content outline); suggested activities; a list of reference materials; a list of audiovisual materials; a list of tools, equipment, and supplies; pretest and answer key; posttest and answer key; and performance checklist. Information on use of the curriculum materials and a student progress chart are located at the front of the instructor guide. Answer keys to review questions in the student guide are included. (YLB)
