Paper details
Practical Criminologists argue offenders are rational. They choose places, targets, and even times that are
often advantageous to them or make it easier to commit the crime. How can you apply this thinking to the
kidnappings for ransom problem in Colombia? How are kidnappers rational, based on the graphs in the
lecture? In other words, what patterns do you see and how could we explain it?
Have you watched the writing tutorial video and are you aware of how to avoid plagiarism by paraphrasing and
citing material? Have you read the essay guidelines on the syllabus?
Is your response primarily based upon the material provided for the class? Always read your course material to
develop your answer and cite all work that is not your original idea.
Do you have a proper thesis statement outlining your main argument in the first paragraph? In-text citations?
Reference page labeled “References”?
The response should be divided into separate paragraphs. Do not write the response in single paragraph form.
Have you downloaded “Grammarly” and installed it onto your word processing program such as Word? Make
sure to turn it on to highlight writing issues.
Refrain from using too many direct quotes in your response. Stick to only one quote per page. The response
should be a reflection of your analytical ability and not merely a collection of direct quotes from the book or any
other material.
