This book was released on 2002 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the Law Related Education Act of 1978, Law-Related Education (LRE) can be defined as "education to equip nonlawyers with knowledge and skills pertaining to the law, the legal process, the legal system, and the fundamental principles and values on which these are based." LRE teaches essential concepts of democracy, including law, power, justice, liberty, and equality. As with many social programs, rigorous evaluations of LRE are scarce, but there is substantial evidence that the principles underlying LRE programs squarely address those factors that research has shown put youth at risk of delinquency. This bulletin reviews that evidence and identifies directions for future development and evaluation of LRE programs. The bulletin examines the following topics: (1) What is LRE? (2) What are the characteristics of programs that prevent delinquency? (3) How can LRE contribute to delinquency prevention? (4) academic failure and commitment to school; (5) expectations for behavior norms for health behavior/attitudes toward problem behavior, resiliency skills, early initiation of problem behaviors, and association with peers; (6) neighborhood attachment/bonding and opportunity for meaningful participation; (7) summary; (8) future steps to help further the understanding of LRE's potential roll in preventing delinquency and promoting positive youth development; and (9) concluding remarks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was hard in the beginning; I didn't think I was going to like it."-student"This ain't even a real school, man. This is for discipline."-student"I want to go to college and become a paramedic."-student"Know what you learn in this program? You learn to suck up."-student"The school district would not like what I'm doing here, but I think these kids need it."-history teacher"This is my real ministry."-community liaisonThese are only some of the voices in Law and Order and School, Shira Birnbaum's riveting study of an education and rehabilitation program for troubled teenagers in a Southern city. Locally acclaimed as one of the better programs of its kind in the region, "Academy" exemplifies a new kind of institution, providing transitional school services under contract with both educational and juvenile justice agencies.Birnbaum's narrative focuses on curriculum, teaching, behavior management, and the social organization and culture of the program, offering a close-up view of the everyday classroom interactions that frame student achievement and, ultimately, program outcomes. What do students learn? What do teachers teach? What educational and rehabilitative goals are embedded in official and unofficial policy? What processes inside and outside the building help or hinder the attainment of those goals?As educational and justice agencies look increasingly to private subcontractors to deliver an array of services and growing numbers of young people are channeled into non-traditional educational settings and correctional institutions, it is imperative that educators and the general public understand how these institutions work and what problems their students and staffs encounter. This on-the-ground examination of education within the juvenile justice system will open your eyes to how we educate some of our neediest children. Author note: Shira Birnbaum is an educational consultant working in New York and New Jersey.
