About prisons and corrections flashcards
GoConqr OriginalUsing Prisons and Corrections flashcards
The decks offer different ways into the unit. One starts with a brief history of punishment, while another covers non-carceral corrections, diversion and probation. Other cards address prison facilities, overcrowding, practitioner roles and the effects of prison life.
For a starting point, choose the history deck if you want to work through punishment over time. For terms related to work in corrections, try the deck on practitioner roles, which includes community supervision officers, counselors and prisonization.
From cards to a wider view
Read a card, attempt an answer before looking at its other side, and return to terms you want to practice again. If you want to see how ideas connect, switch to a mind map on the unit page. A quiz can offer a different way to check your understanding after a card session.
Choose a deck and work through a few cards.
