This OER Textbook was developed for use in conjunction with introductory level correctional case management courses. It provides an overview into the major aspects of correctional case management, in both institutional and community settings.

This course provides an overview of the history and present-day operation of the criminal justice process in the United States. Students analyze the role, responsibility and authority of each of the components of the system: police, courts, corrections and rehabilitation. They will also explore and examine the underlying principles and values of justice.

I used Wikipedia & Wikivoyage (RACHEL PROGRAMS) that we have available for our Correctional Ed Students. [No Internet, EVER for them fyi.] These trivia programs I tend to hold periodically throughout the year. I like to hold them around the holidays since they are rather depressed.
If your students have the full internet, they will be NO challenge for them. But with limited resources, they might take interest in some of the trivia here. It is mostly Geographical.
We gave out small prizes for the most correct, requiring complete sentences in their answers.
