Assignment 2: Presentation
Complete the Unit 10 Assignment: Prevention and Treatment Presentation
This week you will identify cu
ent prevention and treatment strategies used to address juvenile delinquency.
In the context of juvenile delinquency, treatment and prevention take on two different meanings. Treatment is reactive in nature, providing remedies for issues and conditions already present. Prevention, on the other hand, is proactive in nature, concentrating on eliminating or reducing the commission of certain conduct or the presence of certain situations.
Create an eight slide PowerPoint presentation which lists cu
ent prevention and treatment strategies. Include the following in your presentation:
· List two cu
ent prevention strategies.
· Discuss how effective each prevention strategy is in successfully rehabilitating the juvenile delinquent.
· List two cu
ent treatment strategies.
· Discuss how effective each treatment strategy is in successfully rehabilitating the juvenile delinquent.
Provide case studies/examples of each.
Note: This Assignment requires outside research. Use at least two credible sources and discuss how you evaluated the credibility of the resources used. You may consult the Li
ary, the Internet, course materials, and any other outside resources in supporting your task, using proper citations in APA style.
The PowerPoint presentation should have the following characteristics.
· Contains a title slide, introduction slide and references slide (these do not count in the eight slide requirement).
· Bullets for your main points.
· Pictures to support your presentation where applicable.
· Research from at least two reliable sources to support the main message, including graphics.
· Incorporate information from course readings, the course materials, or other li
ary sources to support your discussion. Properly cite all sources of information by including in-text citations and a list of
eferences.
· Research and visuals are cited in APA citation format, both in-text and on a References slide. You need to quote material taken directly from a source.
· The same standards for documenting sources that apply to an essay, apply to a presentation. Go to the
Academic Writer website for a digital li
ary of APA Style quick guides and tutorials to refine your writing.
