Correctional Service Canada: At the heart of criminal justice: Activities
Classroom activities
Based on real gathered facts (newspaper articles, news reports on television), follow a criminal case. Focus on the roles of the various elements involved, including the police forces, courts, correctional services and parole boards.
Proposed external resources
A meeting with a police officer/investigator would be useful for an added element of experience.
