  1. Funded by EDGE, CityU PI: Li, Jessica Chi-mei (SS) Period: January 2011- December 2011 TDG Project“Teaching Crime Prevention in Everyday life” TDG Project No. 6000317 PI: Dr Jessica Li (SS)

  2. Approach TDG Project No. 6000317 PI: Dr Jessica Li (SS)

  3. This is the third phase of the TDG-funded project “Crime Issue”, first implemented in 2008. Similar to the first (2008-09) and second (2009-10) phases, the project’s third phase will cover a wide range of teaching and learning activities inside and outside the classroom, such as field visits, guest seminars, editorial work of a newsletter and a forum. As an improvement of the previous phases, participants of the new project will take a more active role in conveying the crime prevention message to the community. Participants will team up in collaboration with the police crime prevention unit to educate different vulnerable groups in community (e.g. elderly, juvenile delinquents as well as sex workers) about situational crime prevention techniques. Other than CityU students, community residents will also benefit from the proposed project. Overview TDG Project No. 6000317 PI: Dr Jessica Li (SS)

  4. Core student participants = 40 CityU students • Student participants = 100 CityU students • Vulnerable groups in the community = 100 persons • Newsletter readers: (a) print-out version (CityU = 1,000; Community = 1,000) (b) Online version: 10% of the total population (CityU = 2,000 ; Community + Universities worldwide= 2,000) Participants and service recipients TDG Project No. 6000317 PI: Dr Jessica Li (SS)

  5. Upon the completion of this project, students are expected to be able to: describe the nature and implications of a number of key issues of criminology that are chosen for the course; articulate the complex social and organizational factors that underlie crime reduction efforts for the selected issues; demonstrate an advanced knowledge of the relevant public discourse, research literature and theoretical foundations of the issue under study; and communicate ideas and arguments in debates through oral presentations and in writing.
