Fusion Centers & Intelligence-Led Policing (ILP)

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ CAREFULLY AS THERE ARE MULTIPLE STEPS!
– there are FOUR attached readings to help with this assignment and also a website below

Break Up with the BRIC: Unpacking the Boston Regional Intelligence Center Budget

Assignment 1: Our readings this week identify some strategies and challenges for using intelligence-led policing (ILP) to fight crime. At the federal level, nearly every agency with federal law enforcement officers has some type of intelligence support. However, the ILP we discuss this week is focused on city & state law enforcement organizations.

Choose a city or state in the United States and select a position (do you believe it would be effective or not) and write a policy paper providing recommendations to implement ILP, or not to implement it ( or remove it), and explain why. Whichever choice you make, you will need to analyze both sides of the issues. Some people see great benefits in information sharing, and some people see huge problems with civil rights and civil liberties abuse. You are writing this for the Chief of Police in the town of your choosing. This is not a history paper. The Chief knows the history. Explain WHY you recommend or do not recommend using ILP.

Write a 2-page single-spaced policy paper, with your references on a third page. 12-pt, single-spaced, Times New Roman font.

Remember to research what existing intelligence analysis may or may not be already occurring. Many cities have something already in motion.

**Note** Any of you can contact law enforcement agencies and ask for an interview to discuss their thoughts on ILP and whether it is in use.

**************** USE BELOW FORMAT with Black Bolded Headers ******************
Name: Jane Smith

Subject (One sentence): Keep it short and to the point. This section frames the issue.

Problem Statement (one paragraph): Identify exactly what the problem is.

Issues & Analysis (1/2 -3/4 page): Identify TWO issues which must be addressed if ILP were to be implemented and write 1-2 paragraphs on each.

Insert a small title in front of each paragraph (e.g. Need to Hire Intelligence Analysts; Cross-train injured Police Officers; Cross-Train Crime Analysts; Civil Liberties Problems). Analyze whether it could or could not work.

Consider the decision-makers point of view. Is cost an option? Training? Civil rights and civil liberties? Legal challenges? Will the workforce push back? Do you need more people or funding? Can workers be cross-trained?

Recommendation (1/2-3/4 page): Based on the issues above, explain whether you do or do not recommend implementing ILP, and why. The above section is much more in the weeds about the two issues you select. In this section, you want to be more macro-level, or strategic, about your recommendation and the impact on the city.

References (these go on page 3): Use APA format to identify 5+ sources. Don’t forget your assigned readings.

Note: First and foremost—read the assigned readings and then find a few more. No blogs, no Wikipedia… good sources. Check the Lasell Library, DHS documents, Center for Homeland Defense Studies, etc.

The disestablishment of marriage

For this assignment, you will write an 800-1200 word Rhetorical Analysis based on the
reading, “The Disestablishment of Marriage” by Stephanie Coontz, which is available under the
“Readings” in the Paper 2/Rhetorical Analysis Module.
In a Rhetorical Analysis, your goal is to demonstrate how the various aspects of the
text work together to achieve the writer’s goal and to formulate a thesis statement that
indicates whether Coontz—because of her incorporation and usage of Rhetorical Situation
elements and Rhetorical Strategies—is successful at, in fact, arguing “The Disestablishment
of Marriage, as her title implies.
Hence, you will need to address all 9 of the following, as you (rhetorically analyze)
Coontz’s argument and include direct quotes/evidence from her article. You will focus on—
 The Rhetorical Situation, including
o the author
o the audience
o the occasion
o the purpose
o the persona
o the tone/stance of the article
 Rhetorical Strategies, including
o pathos
o logos
o ethos
Focus on HOW the article/rhetorical situation works, not simply WHAT it conveys; try
not to get distracted into arguing passionately a particular position or extolling the
beauty/creativity of the article. To complete the essay successfully, you will need to discuss
specific and concrete elements of the article—the way we will do over the next few class
meetings. (See the next page for prewriting ideas and invention work.)
No outside research (other than Coontz’s article itself) should be used for this
assignment. And, please adhere to these guidelines:
 Papers should be 800-1200 words and NOT 5 paragraphs.
 Papers need to have a thesis, which can be DIRECT or IMPLIED. Also, the thesis
can be revealed anywhere in the paper.
 Papers should begin with a descriptive title. (Note: paper titles should not be bolded,
italicized, put into quotation marks, or all capitalized.)
 Papers should be logically organized; transitions should be deftly utilized, too.
 Papers should reflect a solid command of grammar, mechanics, and spelling. (This
means thorough proofreading is essential!!)

Introduction

Upon completion of the strategic planning process, further strategic thinking is required to determine how to achieve the goals identified. Implementation of the strategy requires setting objectives, and development of plans and budgets that translate into specific action plans (Ginter, Duncan, & Swayne, 2013). Action plans must be developed to link the department or organizational unit, such as surgical unit, human resources, to the overall strategy (Ginter, Duncan, & Swayne, 2013).

The value chains within health care organizations are comprised of those departments or components that create value and ultimately a competitive advantage for the organization (Ginter, Duncan, & Swayne, 2013). Innovation in the health care industry will change the way in which clinical care is delivered. New business models will develop in response to patient demands (Davey, Brennan, & McAdam, 2010). The inability to respond to the demand for innovative health care and new business models will result in the organization losing their competitive advantage. Justifying the need for a new business model requires the organization to understand the needs of the market in which they deliver services (Davey, Brennan, Meenan, & McAdam, 2010).

For this assessment, assume you are employed as a strategic planner with Metropolitan Health. Mission and vision are important to the strategic planning process of a health care organization.

For this assessment, consider the following mission and vision statement.

Mission: Metropolitan Health’s mission is to be the leading provider of the highest quality health care through education, research, and clinical practice.
Vision: To be the most trusted health care provider of choice for patients of the Sunrise region.
You have been asked to review the most recent patient survey data and develop an executive summary that addresses the data and develops a plan for improvement.

You interpret the data and find that the data from the previous twelve months of patient satisfaction surveys at Metropolitan Health indicate patients are dissatisfied with their overall patient experience. Areas identified as leading causes for dissatisfaction are related to the following:

The inability to ask their provider questions.
Difficulty in making appointments.
The lack of courtesy and respect from staff.
Note: Eighty-five percent of the patients who completed the survey have been seeking services from Metropolitan Health for over three years. Sixty percent said they are not likely to recommend the facility to their friends and family.

Now that you understand the data stated points, develop your executive summary that presents the following to the executive team:

Analyze operational issues (that is, analyze the data).
Where does the data for this scenario come from?
If available, what other data sources would you like to consult for your analysis?
How can this data be used to analyze operational issues for Metropolitan Health?

Personal Ethics Essay

Ethical dilemmas are prevalent in all organisational contexts. Research has revealed that many students feel unprepared to manage ethical dilemmas when they occur, and also report that they feel they should receive more training about how to address such dilemmas prior to entering the workplace
The aim of this assessment task therefore is to increase students’ knowledge of themselves and the factors that influence their decision-making when faced with an ethical dilemma

Having chosen your preferred organisation from the list above, your task is to conduct an innovation audit of the chosen organisation to examine the organisation’s innovation history, present level of innovation activities and capabilities and the drivers and nature of industry within which it operates. Therefore, the audit will factor in wider macro and competitive environment factors as well as upstream and downstream supply chain participants.
You will use the information collected on the chosen organisation in tandem with the material presented in the module to illustrate that you fully understand innovation management theory and practice. Your report will broadly cover the following key topics:
(i) an overview to the chosen organisation & industry within which it operates;
(ii) a specific introduction to the organisation and its innovation history;
(iii) existing innovation performance and capabilities;
(iv) analysis of the nature, situation and the innovation drives of the relevant industry in 2022.

LO 4 Actively engage in the identification of a new product/service for a chosen organisation and identify the key activities required for its successful development;

LO 5 Conduct an innovation/organisational development audit appropriate for the introduction of the new product/service.

Source Paper

Skill-building objectives:
* Analyze and compare primary-source documents.
* Understand and describe relevant context.
* Identify and evaluate someone else’s main idea or argument.
Tasks for Source Paper 2 (revolutionary period, 1760s-1840s. Chs. 14-17)
* Analyze two primary sources.
* Use two secondary sources to provide context.
* Identify the arguments in your secondary sources.
* Evaluate: Do your primary sources support or undermine the secondary source’s argument?
Requirements:
* Word limits: 1,000-1,200 words.
* If you choose to write the minimum length, be aware that your writing must be both concise and detailed to get a good grade.
* If you choose to write the maximum, your writing must be relevant. Filler or unsupported speculation does not constitute good academic writing.
* Primary sources must be from class meetings or from Vol. 2 of the book Worlds Together, Worlds Apart. Documentary sources are in sections titled, “Global Themes and Sources.” Visual sources are in sections titled, “Interpreting Visual Evidence.”
* 1 primary source may be a visual source, 1 must be text. Both primary sources may be text if you prefer.
* Primary sources used during class meetings may be used, but this must be approved by the professor at least one week before the assignment is due.
* Secondary sources must be books or journal articles found through the KSU Library website (https://library.ksu.edu).
Things you absolutely should NOT do:
* Try to tell a story. Your task is not to list facts or convey a narrative; it is to analyze sources of information.
* Use sources that are not academic books or journal articles (especially online sources).
* Use any source that is not cited (plagiarism).
* Use book reviews or letters to the editor as secondary sources.
* Use textbooks, encyclopedias, or dictionaries as secondary sources.
* Use secondary sources originally published before 1960.
* Use secondary sources in the “Very Short Introduction” series.
* Include more than 80 words in quotes.
* Write in bullet points, question-and-answer, or lists.
Tips for identifying proper academic books:
* “University Press” in the name of the publisher.
* Known publishers of academic material such as Anvil, Bloomsbury, Harper Academic, Palgrave Macmillan, Pearson, Penguin, Routledge, St. Martin’s, Viking, W.W. Norton.
* NOT included in the K-12 Collection or “Juvenile Nonfiction.”
* The author holds an advanced degree or is employed by an educational institution.
Tips for identifying peer-reviewed journals:
* “Journal” or “Review” in the title of the publication.
* Academic discipline in the name: “History,” “Political Science,” “Sociology,” “Literature,” etc.
* Found in a reliable database such as JSTOR or Project Muse.
* Published by a university.
Primary source citations:
* List the primary sources you are using at the top of your paper.
* If you are using a document from the textbook, list the author, title in quotation marks, and page number in the textbook.
* DO NOT use the “Source” information at the bottom of the document. You are not using the publication listed there, you are using your textbook and that is what you should cite.
* Example:
Hernán Cortés, “Approaching Tenochtitlán (1520),” 624-626.
* If you are using a source discussed in class, list the title given to you in quotation marks.
* Example:
“Fatwas by Eu’s-Su’ud Efendi, Ottoman shaykh and judge (1490-1574).”
Secondary source citations:
* List your bibliographic citations at the top of your paper, using the format outlined in the Chicago Manual of Style online citation guide.
Chicago Manual of Style, online citation guide: https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-1.html.
Use the following models:
* Book  Bibliography entry  second example.
* Formula:
Author’s last name, Author’s first name. Book title: book subtitle. City of publication: Publisher, year.
* Example:
Dominy, Graham. Last Outpost on the Zulu Frontier: Fort Napier and the British Imperial Garrison. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2016.
* Journal article  Bibliography entry  third example.
* Formula:
Author’s last name, Author’s first name. “Journal article title: journal article subtitle.” Name of publication Volume, no. (Month year): start page-end page.
* Example:
Carrasco, David. “Quetzalcoatl’s Revenge: Primordium and Application in Aztec Religion.” History of Religions 19, 4 (May 19880): 296-320.
* DO NOT Use Word or any word processing software’s citation tools, or online citation tools. They are never correct or up-to-date.
In-text citations:
* You are not required to use footnotes.
* I recommend that you not quote from your secondary sources. That is probably a waste of your allotted words in quotations.
* If you are drawing information from one of your secondary sources, use an in-text citation at the end of the sentence using the author’s name and the page number.
* Example: “Scholars agree the Aztecs believed the god Quetzalcoatl had a physical dwelling on earth, but debate where it was located” (Carrasco, 298).
* Alternatively, you can write the sentence in a way that makes your source of information clear.
* Example: “In the article, ‘Quetzalcoatl’s Revenge,’ David Carrasco states that scholars agree the Aztecs believed the god Quetzalcoatl had a physical dwelling on earth, but debate where it was located.”
Tips for analyzing primary sources:
* Remember: summary is not analysis. You may have to engage in some summary of the source’s content, but that should not be all you do with a source.
* What are the main points contained in the document? What is the author / speaker / creator trying to say?
* What does the language imply about the mindset, ideology, or political priorities of the creator / author?
* How does this source relate to your other primary sources? Are the same events or ideas discussed? Do the authors refer to one another?
* What do your primary sources say or show about your overall theme or topic?
* Who created this document?
* When was it created?
* What is its audience / who was meant to receive it?
* Why was this document created? What problem or issue was it meant to address?
* How was it promulgated? Was it sent as a letter, published, broadcast, or spoken aloud?
Tips for using secondary sources:
* To what events, ideologies, or individuals does the primary source document refer?
* What events preceded the creation of the primary source document / what instigated its creation?
* What followed the primary source document? Did it lead directly to a historical action or event?
Tips for organizing a historical essay:
* Introduction: briefly mention each of your sources and how they relate to your topic or theme.
* Body paragraphs: analyze your sources (primary and secondary) in conjunction with one another.

I recommend that you NOT separate your sources and write about them in separate paragraphs. That organizational scheme will tend toward summary, not analysis and will hamper you from discussing them in conjunction with one another.
Conclusion: recap the main points from your sources and how they relate to your topic or theme.
Drafts
The professor will read drafts and give feedback if they are email to the professor at least one week before the assignment due date.
