The Chief of police has asked you to create a PowerPoint presentation based on the research findings. Your presentation consists of the current and future criminal justice technology, examples and the benefits to your department.

Create a 7-9 slide PowerPoint Presentation incorporating speaker notes that you and your team would present to the Mayor’s Committee for approval to purchase future technology for your Department. Convince Mayor Taylor that he should approve the funds for your precinct to purchase new equipment by analyzing the future of information technology in the criminal justice system.

Be sure to address the following:

• Explain      the impact of information technology on the criminal justice system. You      may choose police, courts or corrections. (What are the future trends      and/or types of technology?)
• Choose three      or more examples of how information technology in criminal justice will      help the city in the future. (This could be police, courts or corrections      in the field a look towards the future.)
• Describe how      information technology can impact policing in the future. (What are some      examples of the impact?)
• Analyze      three current advancements in technology that the criminal justice system      has implemented and how this technology has aided the criminal justice      system in either solving crime or related to police, courts or      corrections.
• Justify      the technology that you choose (crime mapping,)

The PowerPoint presentation should have the following characteristics:

• Bullets      for your main points.
• Must include      speaker notes to fully explain what is being discussed in the slide bullet      points as though you are presenting to an audience.
• Contains a      title and references slide.
• Research      from at least two reliable sources to support the main message, including      graphics.
  
  NOTE: Sources should be from beyond the course material.      Locate relevant information related to three or more ways in which      information technology may be used in the criminal justice system in the      future and demonstrate the ability to distinguish between relevant and      irrelevant information associated to the technology of the future.
• Research and      visuals are cited in APA citation format, both in-text and on a References      slide. You need to quote material taken directly from a source. The same      standards for documenting sources that apply to an essay, apply to a      presentation. Go to the APA Style® Central website      for a digital library of APA Style quick guides and tutorials to refine      your writing.
• Designed      with a live audience in mind in order to inform your viewers about the      topic.
