Download or read book Guidelines and Curriculum for Handling Missing Person and Runaway Cases written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California legislation requires that the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training develop guidelines for missing person and runaway cases and implement a course of instruction for law enforcement officers and dispatchers in the handling of missing person investigations. The legislation requires that police and sheriff departments give priority to handling missing person reports over property crime reports. Further, the California Highway Patrol is allowed to take missing person reports if contacted and, in any case, is required to refer the reporting person to the agency with jurisdiction over the missing person's residence and to the agency with jurisdiction over where the missing person was last seen. The emphasis of the legislation is on making law enforcement more sensitive and responsive in handling missing person cases involving both adults and children. This emphasis is reflected in the guidelines and curriculum. The guidelines focus on initial response, followup investigation, and reporting requirements, while the curriculum specifies learning goals and performance objectives for law enforcement involvement in and sensitivity to missing person cases, initial response procedures, methods for locating missing persons, and legal requirements for initial response and followup. Appendixes contain additional information on and forms for missing person investigations.
Download or read book Missing Persons Curriculum written by Gary C. Sorg and published by . This book was released on 1989* with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the law enacted in recent years has been in response to law enforcement personnel's failure to respond appropriately. Legislation passed in 1988 (Assembly Bill 1073) resulted directly from one family encountering discourteous dispatchers and disinterested police when attempting to report their 20-year-old daughter missing. The young woman was found murdered hours later. Prior to class presentation students should be assigned to contact their departments and familiarize themselves with their department policy and procedures for handling missing person cases.
Download or read book Missing Persons written by Derek Congram and published by Canadian Scholars’ Press. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of finding and identifying missing persons is complex and requires the expertise of many people, such as historians hunting through archives, biological anthropologists reconstructing skeletons, and psychologists preparing investigators to interview families of the disappeared. Uniting the voices of 22 experts from around the world, Derek Congram’s collection of original papers centres its attention on those who are engaged in the location, identification, and repatriation of missing persons. The contributors to this timely volume represent multiple disciplines and various fields, including academia, government, and civil service, but are connected by a shared conviction that accounting for the missing is vital for a just society. The chapters concentrate on victims of physical or structural violence, including armed conflict, repressive regimes, criminal behaviour, and racist and colonial policies towards Indigenous persons and minority populations. Some contexts are familiar—morgues, mass graves, and battlefields—while others are surprising, such as schoolyards and a museum in Canada. Although the circumstances of the disappearances vary greatly, Missing Persons illustrates the connections between these disparate contexts. Multidisciplinary in scope, this edited collection is a valuable comparative resource for students, academics, and practitioners in forensic anthropology, anthropological/archaeological ethics, forensic psychology, criminal justice, and human rights.

Download or read book Missing Persons written by Karen Shalev Greene and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A missing person is an individual whose whereabouts are unknown and where there is some concern for his or her wellbeing. In the UK, around 250,000 people are reported missing every year, with the majority being children under the age of 18. Despite the fact that missing persons are a social phenomenon which encompasses vast areas of interest, relatively little is known about those who go missing, what happens to them while they are missing, and what can be done to prevent these incidents from occurring. This groundbreaking book brings together for the first time ideas and expertise across this vast subject area into one interconnected publication. It explores the subjects of missing children, missing adults, the investigative process of missing person cases, and the families of missing persons. Those with no prior knowledge or professionals with focused knowledge in some areas will be able to expand their understanding of a variety of topics relevant to this field through detailed chapters which advance our understanding of this complex phenomenon, discuss what is unknown, and suggest the best and most important steps forward to further advance our knowledge.

Download or read book Curriculum Violence written by Erhabor Ighodaro and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the historical context of African Americans' educational experiences, and it provides information that helps to assess the dominant discourse on education, which emphasises White middle-class cultural values and standardisation of students' outcomes. Curriculum violence is defined as the deliberate manipulation of academic programming in a manner that ignores or compromises the intellectual and psychological well being of learners. Related to this are the issues of assessment and the current focus on high-stakes standardised testing in schools, where most teachers are forced to teach for the test.
Download or read book The Missing Link written by Steve Heisler and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2014-04-02 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A glance at successful people reveals a simple truth: successful people employ successful habits. Yet in schools, amongst all of the information and all of the skills that are taught, few concern how to employ and internalize these key habits of success. These skills are expected, even demanded, but are rarely taught, at least not with the attention of whatever else is deemed critical learning. The Missing Link seeks to place such skills as persistence, self-regulation, organization, time management, organization, and even the skill of appropriate “work-place social skills” into the strata of critically important learning. The Missing Link was written to help professional educators (as well as parents and others) employ straight-forward ways to teach success skills without adding to the enormous burdens they already shoulder. This book is a guide to teaching critical success skills in powerful ways by infusing them into the curriculum that is already in place. Teachers (and parents) just do what they usually do, but with a different focus to change outcomes and children’s lives for the better.

Download or read book Universals in Comparative Morphology written by Jonathan David Bobaljik and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-10-05 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An argument for, and account of linguistic universals in the morphology of comparison, combining empirical breadth and theoretical rigor. This groundbreaking study of the morphology of comparison yields a surprising result: that even in suppletion (the wholesale replacement of one stem by a phonologically unrelated stem, as in good-better-best) there emerge strikingly robust patterns, virtually exceptionless generalizations across languages. Jonathan David Bobaljik describes the systematicity in suppletion, and argues that at least five generalizations are solid contenders for the status of linguistic universals. The major topics discussed include suppletion, comparative and superlative formation, deadjectival verbs, and lexical decomposition. Bobaljik's primary focus is on morphological theory, but his argument also aims to integrate evidence from a variety of subfields into a coherent whole. In the course of his analysis, Bobaljik argues that the assumptions needed bear on choices among theoretical frameworks and that the framework of Distributed Morphology has the right architecture to support the account. In addition to the theoretical implications of the generalizations, Bobaljik suggests that the striking patterns of regularity in what otherwise appears to be the most irregular of linguistic domains provide compelling evidence for Universal Grammar. The book strikes a unique balance between empirical breadth and theoretical detail. The phenomenon that is the main focus of the argument, suppletion in adjectival gradation, is rare enough that Bobaljik is able to present an essentially comprehensive description of the facts; at the same time, it is common enough to offer sufficient variation to explore the question of universals over a significant dataset of more than three hundred languages.
