Describe which 2 criminal justice agencies you selected and each agency’s staff demographic. Compare racial and ethnic arrest data between the 2 local criminal justice agencies that you selected over a 10-year span.
Identify the difference between the 2 related to the race and ethnicity of those arrested.
Explain how this information helps illustrate the disparity of criminal offenders and victims.
Examine the key conclusions that can be drawn regarding the question of whether different racial and ethnic groups are overrepresented among criminal offenders.
Use the concept from your text to explain the racial and ethnic differences in offending.

There are two ways to view intelligence or ability:
ability it is fixed or ingrained – in other words, we are born with a certain level of ability and we cannot change that. this is called a fixed mindset.
we can develop our ability through hard work and effort. this is called a growth mindset.
these two different beliefs lead to different behaviour, and also to different results. for example, students with a growth mindset were shown to increase their grades over time. those who believed that their intelligence was ingrained did not; in fact, their grades got worse.
having a growth mindset (the belief that you are in control of your own ability, and can learn and improve) is the key to success.
yes, hard work, effort, and persistence are all important, but not as important as having that underlying belief that you are in control of your own destiny.
