Learning Goal: I’m working on a criminal justice project and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
In your research project, you will address the following situation:
You are a member of a small rural police department consisting of 30 sworn members, with a limited budget. Your chief administrator has tasked you with researching new police technology and asked you to provide recommendations.
Task:
- You are required to write a justification for each piece of technology selected.
- Of all the technology discussed in the course which would you recommend?
- Provide at least three (3) pieces of police technology and identify the criterion that you would use when purchasing the technology and provide a brief explanation for each. In other words, what would you pick and why?
As part of your analysis include the following:
Step 1 – Justification (reasons for the purchase).
Step 2 – Budget (how much would each item cost).
Step 3 – Ensure each member receives the necessary training.
Step 4 – Steps that you would recommend to ensure that the chosen technology is being utilized by members of your organization.
Step 5 – A metric to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of that technology.
Guidelines:
- Proper APA Style
- 5-7 pages in length, not including title page, abstract, and references.
- Research should include a minimum of two (2) scholarly journals, not including your textbook. (News sources may be used only for examples / Non-scholarly Internet sites should not be used for your research).
