You are a training
officer in a criminal justice agency. You have noticed that newly hired
officers seem to struggle with report writing. You have decided to provide a
tool that outlines the qualities of an effective report in an easily referenced
format.
Create a chart or table using Microsoft® Word that
includes the following:
·
An introduction
identifying some of the types and uses of written communication in the criminal
justice field
·
The main requirements
and features of a police report
·
Definitions and
explanations of those requirements and features in one or two sentences
·
A summary that
explains why the features identified are essential to an effective report, and
why an effective report is important in the criminal justice process
