, Suggestions for Use of Instructor’s Manual
This Instructor‘s Manual is designed to be used for a typical three-credit college course. It can
also be used very easily for courses of greater or lesser length, at the instructor‘s discretion. In
fact, the entire Manual has been designed to give maximum discretion to you, the instructor. Use
it to guide your course as much as you need; let it support your own expertise, teaching
techniques, and the unique needs of your class.
There are detailed lesson plans for every chapter. These are intended to help you tailor your
lesson plans to the needs of each class. Each chapter also has a number of Assignments offered.
This puts more tools in your tool kit to help you get the best fit between the material and the
student. There should be more here than you will need.
There is an extensive bank of test questions. They will tell you how well your students are
learning the material, and how well you are teaching them. Use them as starting points for your
own test questions or use them as they are.
In all cases, we have tried to help you get your students fully engaged as active learners. This
book is very practice oriented. The lesson plans and test questions have likewise been developed
to help students get their hands on the subject. With your skill as a teacher and as a leader, they
will not only learn about Police Supervision; they will learn how to become Police Supervisors.
