To the Instructor
This manual is provided to assist and guide you in creating lesson plans for your Introduction to
Criminal Justice course using the textbook CJ2019 written by James A. Fagan. It starts with
sample syllabi for a 10-week and a 16-week course. Following the syllabi are frameworks for
each chapter, which include a chapter overview, chapter objectives, a lecture outline, additional
assignments and class activities, and suggested answers to the end-of-chapter questions.
Following the chapter schematics is a test bank containing a variety of assessment options.
CJ2019 is a continuation of the groundbreaking Justice Series. It retains the outstanding format
N
and supplemental materials associated with the Justice Series with some exciting changes. It
offers both instructor and student a wide-ranging examination of the criminal justice system, its
processes, and controversies. The supplemental materials associated with the Justice Series have
been enhanced, especially the alignment of learning outcomes with text material and
U
supplements.
While CJ2019 has been extensively updated, it has retained the same core of instructional
R
material for each chapter. Thus, instructors will find that they can continue to use instructor-
produced PowerPoint slides, lecture outlines, and other instructional lecture material from
previous editions. The book is designed to provide an overview of the American criminal justice
SE
system for the undergraduate student. It is designed to facilitate different methods of learning by
use of visual graphics and chapter features to help students comprehend the material. Each
chapter is carefully crafted so that the instructor can customize the topics covered. This concept
is extended with various e-book options that allow the instructor to customize the text.
CJ2019 includes coverage of current issues that have been incorporated by use of the Chapter
D
Introductions, Think About It boxes, and case studies. The Think About It boxes and case
studies, drawn from the most current media news, encourage students to go beyond
memorization to explore applications, conflicts, and ethical issues. These features can be used for
online discussion board topics or in-class discussions or short critical thinking paper
O
assignments. Graphs, tables, and data have been updated to reflect the most current data
available. In some cases new graphics and figures reflecting more current concerns have been
added.
C
The learning outcomes are clearly identified for each chapter. This feature allows instructors to
link the course learning outcomes to department and university learning outcomes. It also helps
students retain the major ideas of the chapter. Learning outcomes, glossary terms, and chapter
S
summaries are integrated to help students comprehend the important points of the chapter.
Lastly, the timeline has been updated to include current events that have impacted the criminal
justice system. This timeline helps students understand the historical development of the criminal
justice system and place events in chronological order.
