博客來As part of the SAGE Guide to Writing series, this supplement, The SAGE Guide to Writing in Criminal Justice, focuses on teaching students how to write in the academic setting while introducing them to a number of other writing tools, such as memos, emails, contact sheets, resumes, letters, etc. The goal is to interweave professional and technical writing, academic writing, and information literacy, with the result being a stronger, more confident report writer and student in criminal justice. This book will be a concise supplemental writing manual in courses focused on writing in the criminal justice discipline or in introductory courses to the field of criminal justice. With just six chapters, this brief material will hone in tightly on key topics that support student learning and writing, including the types of writing that students can use in their professional lives, not just their academic careers.
It will also be the foundational guide for a series of books on this topic that will span policing, corrections, and research methods.
This book could be used as a supplement with any introduction to criminal justice text. It could also be bundled with Introduction to Criminology, Introduction to Policing, Introduction to Corrections, and Research Methods books until the subject-specific writing guides are published.
