Treatment of Forensic Populations Assignment 16
In the Final Project for this course, due by Day 7 of Week 11, you will demonstrate your understanding of—as well as apply and critically evaluate—the major concepts presented in this course.
For your Final Project, you will apply concepts and approaches presented in the course to a scenario featuring an offender with multiple related factors (e.g., gender, ethnicity, type of offense, and age).
Your Final Project must be presented as a 12-page (not including references, title page, or abstract), double-spaced, APA-formatted paper. Please usem 12 point, Times New Roman. Reference citations should come from peer-reviewed journals, reputable periodicals, and non-commercial Web sites.
Please note that Wikipedia is not considered a scholarly reference and is not accepted as a citable source. Use 6 -8 references
In your Final Project, you must:
Identify which scenario you selected to use for your Final Project (in the attached pdf file choose one scenario).
Explain the offender category(ies) that concurs with the scenario client and discern the treatment considerations inherent in this category(ies).
Describe the multicultural factors (e.g., age, gender, and ethnicity) evident in the scenario and explain how these factors affect treatment and treatment approach(es).
Describe the treatment approach(es) and/or programs you would use with the offender and explain why.
Describe any legal and ethical issues that might be involved in the treatment of your selected offender and explain how you would address these issues.
Describe the model you would use to measure treatment outcomes and explain why you selected this model.
Your Final Project will be graded on a 20-point scale and is worth 30% of your final grade.
Although the Final Project is not to be submitted until Day 7 of Week 11, you should become familiar with the project requirements and have them in mind as you proceed through the course. Many of the Discussions and Application Assignments relate to and can be of use to you in writing your Final Project.
The Final Project will be evaluated according to all four indicators in the Application Assignment and Final Project Writing Rubric, located in Course Info. Information on scholarly writing may be found in the APA Publication Manual and at the Walden Writing Center Web site. Also, see the “Policies on Academic Honesty” in the Syllabus-II, Walden University Policies and Information.
Save your Final Project as a “.doc” file with the filename FP+last name+your first initial. For example, Sally Ride’s assignment filename would be “FPRideS”. Use the Submit an Assignment link, choose the Week 11: Final Project basket, and then add your Final Project as an attachment
ORDER CUSTOM, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPER
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
