How to Succeed Online:

Learning online may be different, but it can be just as rewarding as learning in-person. Think of this as
an opportunity to challenge yourself in new ways and develop new skills. You should be aware that
different skills may be required to succeed in an online platform. For some of you, online courses may
be more demanding than in-person courses because you are expected to be more self-directed and
independent, and to take greater responsibility for your learning. These guidelines are intended to help
you succeed in this course, whether you are new or returning to online learning.
1) Communication: Most of the communication you are expected to produce in online courses is
written. Whether this involves discussion posts, term papers, or emails to your instructor, you
must be able to express yourself in writing clearly. Reach out and ask questions if concepts are
unclear because you may have less dedicated face time with your instructor.
2) Read and Review: Not only is it important to read and review the course textbook and other
assigned readings, you must carefully read all assignment requirements and the course syllabus.
Make note of due dates so you can organize your time.
3) Technical Requirements: Active participation and engagement in an online course requires
access to a reliable internet connection and computer (i.e., a mobile phone may not be sufficient
for accessing all course content and material, especially videos and large files). If you have
concerns about your ability to meet the technical requirements of a course, please utilize the
services of a facility (e.g., UFV computer lab).
4) Self-Motivation and Self-Discipline: Instructors will vary in when and how they deliver
course content, when course material is released, and when assignments and exams are due.
They may also have different expectations for when and how often you are expected to log in.
Be organized, set up a consistent schedule for yourself, and stay on track with course material
to facilitate your learning.
5) Be Proactive and Positive: Reach out to your instructors when you have questions and need
support. Take advantage of online office hours or sessions to connect with your instructor and
other students. Approach online courses with an open mind and a positive attitude. Take time to
reflect and think about what strategies you will implement and communicate what supports you
will need to be successful. Tutorials and tips for navigating Blackboard can be found at

CRIMINOLOGY 412 (ON1) Summer 2024

Calendar Description:
This course will examine the issues surrounding organized crime in North American society, while
advancing a critical analysis of this subject area. The analysis will primarily be grounded in theory as well
as in an applied research approach that emphasizes a police and government functional and operational
perspective. While concentrating on sociological and criminological theory, the approach to this topic is
multi-disciplinary and will involve other fields, including economics, history, political science,
psychology and deviant behaviour, criminal intelligence, and systems theory, among others.

How will the course material be presented?

CRIM 412 is designed in the same way as the in-class course as it will sequentially unfold over the
course of the semester, beginning the week of May 6 and ending with the completion of the course on
the week of July 29. The material for each week will be available to you every Monday morning in the
form of PowerPoint slides, notes, additional readings/resources, and video links. It is very important
that you review the material on a weekly basis. To assist in this, there will be a drop-in session held in
the virtual classroom on Blackboard every Thursday from 1030-1130. Attendance at these drop-in
sessions will be on a strictly volunteer basis. There is no requirement to attend but it will be an
opportunity for you to ask questions and clarify the material or assignments. These sessions will be
recorded, and you will be able to access the sessions at your convenience.

Read the Vancouver Sun daily, as well as Canadian journals, magazines, etc., for articles relating to
organized crime. Such material will assist you in your understanding of the course content and its
relevance course issues. This is a required component of the course. There will also be handouts and
additional assigned readings.

This classroom, albeit online, is a place for legitimate and intelligent academic debate - it is not a place
for “offhand” comments, judgments, or statements of a racist, sexist or prejudicial nature. This
classroom will be a place that encourages debate and that offers educated opinions. There are many
issues that simply have no right or wrong answer. An opinion backed up with references or an
example is appropriate. If anything offends anyone in any way you should see me to discuss your
concerns. Any legitimate concerns will be addressed immediately.

Additional readings may be handed out during the semester. Material contained in these additional
readings may be used in an exam.

The format of the course will include lectures, discussion boards, guest lecturers, and exams. Students
are strongly encouraged to participate in class discussions. Please read the assigned readings for each
class so that you can participate.

Course Evaluation:

Research Paper (35%) Due by 2359 on Thursday July 4

This assignment will be a formal research paper. The students will choose a topic by focusing on a
specific area of organized crime that was contained or referred to in the course material. A written
proposal must be submitted and approved by the instructor on the chosen topic. This proposal is not
graded but will allow the instructor to narrow the topic area to a manageable scope and cut down on
duplication. This will be submitted by 2359 on Thursday May 23rd

No papers submitted for other academic classes will be accepted.

 Materials used must be properly sourced using the APA style of referencing. A work cited page
and cover page must accompany the assignment. The paper will be 1400-1600 words (excluding
reference page and cover page), typed in Times New Roman 12 font, and double-spaced. At least
six (6) academic and peer-reviewed sources must be used.
Page 3
CRIMINOLOGY 412 (ON1) Summer 2024

 Papers are graded on several criteria, including:

o Organization: identification of relevant issue, description of topic, attention to

assigned task, ordered presentation, clarity, and coherence.
o Documentation: proper incorporation of citations in APA format, selection of relevant
and quality peer-reviewed and academic reference materials.
o Discussion: comprehension reflected in appropriate use and application of concepts,
illustration of themes, ideas, and analysis of research.
o Quality of Expression: attention to composition and flow, format, grammar, spelling,
punctuation, sentence structure, paragraphing and clear and logical expression of ideas
and thoughts.

Your paper must include a cover page with the name of the paper, your name and student
number, the professor’s name, the course number, the date you submitted the paper, and a
reference page. Your paper must be submitted in WORD format (not PDF) through the
BlackBoard site.

Please refer to the UFV Guidelines for Written Assignments contained in this course
outline for more detailed information.

Guidelines for Written Assignments:

Technical Elements:

 Your paper must include a cover page with the name of the paper, your name and student number,
the professor’s name, the course number, the date you submitted the paper, and a reference page.
 Your paper must be double spaced and written only in 12-point font.
 You must include page numbers. Do not put a page number on your cover page. Page numbers start
where your writing starts. Your reference page should also have a page number. You do not need to
include additional blank pages at the beginning or end of your paper. In other words, the first two
pages of your paper should be your cover page and your first page of writing. The last page of your
paper should be your reference list.
 Do not use contractions (don’t for do not; can’t for cannot; shouldn’t for should not; and it’s for it
is) in academic writing.
 The possessive form of the pronoun “its” is an exception – it does not have an apostrophe. Take the
following sentence as an example. This theory is useful because of its attention to the causes of
crime. The use of an apostrophe with “it” is reserved for the contraction of “it is”.
 Proofread your papers carefully. Preferably several times! One of the best ways to proofread your
paper is to read it out loud. It is also a good idea to have someone else read your paper for you
before submitting it. Proofreading is best done a day or two after finishing writing.

Page 4
CRIMINOLOGY 412 (ON1) Summer 2024

 When citing information in your paper, use the APA referencing style. When you have
information you need to reference, there are a few specific rules. Please refer to the UFV Library
APA Formatting Guide, located at:

o http://www.ufv.ca/media/assets/writing-centre/handouts/APA-Documentation-
Style-6th-Ed-Winter-2012.pd

Referencing and Direct Quotations:

Direct quotations must be used sparingly and if used in a written assignment should be properly
cited using APA citation style. There should be no more than two (2) direct quotes used in any
written assignment for this course. Students should be aware that the instructor reserves the right to
fail any written work where a certain percentage (this is up to the instructor) of the total body of the
written work is comprised of direct quotes, irrespective of whether the information is extracted from
one or multiple sources. For additional information on plagiarism, see the UFV Library Guide on
Plagiarism and the UFV Writing Centre Handout on Plagiarism

17 in which the exam must be completed allowing you to determine the best time for you to write the
exam. The exam availability will be released closer to the middle of the term.

 In writing the exam, please be aware of the following: Please be ethical in all aspects of writing the
exam. The exam must be completed individually. It may NOT be written in pairs or groups.
 The exam is completely (100%) CLOSED BOOK. You are NOT permitted to access the textbook,
any notes, any electronic devices other than the course website and the exam, any other individuals, or
any non-approved exam materials.
 The use of any electronic devices during the exam, other than the course website and the

members, or emergencies. Under most circumstances, a missed exam or assignment will result in a
grade of “zero” for that exam or assignment. Make-up exams are not permitted unless there are
extenuating circumstances and with the prior approval of the instructor. Extenuating circumstances are
limited in definition and are defined by the instructor. An example of an extenuating circumstance
would be the hospitalization of a student. Lack of preparation, forgetfulness, holidays, sleeping in late,
or work obligations are not acceptable examples of extenuating circumstances.

Use of Electronics and Technology in the Classroom:

All students are expected to regularly check their UFV email for course related correspondence. All
course assignments, other than examinations, must be word processed. Students are expected to log on
and use the course website http://www.ufv.ca/online throughout the semester, which requires both
Internet and flash access.

Students are not permitted to use generative AI in this course. In alignment with UFV’s Student
Academic Misconduct Policy 70, it “shall be an offense knowingly to ... submit academic work for
assessment that was purchased or acquired from another source”. This includes work created by
generative AI tools. Also, stated in the policy is the following, “Contract Cheating is the act of
“outsourcing of student work to third parties” (Lancaster & Clarke, 2016, p. 639) with or without
payment.” Using Generative AI tools is a form of contract cheating. Charges of academic dishonesty
will be brought forward to the Office of Academic Integrity

Academic and Non-Academic Student Conduct:

Students should carefully review the University’s policies on student conduct. As a UFV student, you
are bound by these student conduct policies.

Page 8
CRIMINOLOGY 412 (ON1) Summer 2024

In terms of academic conduct, all written and oral submissions must conform to UFV standards for
academic integrity in relation to avoiding directly participating in, aiding and/or abetting various forms
of academic misconduct, including, but not limited to: (1) plagiarism; (2) cheating; (3)
impersonation; (4) improper access to examination materials; (5) falsification of academic
records; (6) resubmission of work; (7) improper research practices; and/or (8) obstruction of the
academic activities of another person. Student academic misconduct is extremely serious and, if
documented, will result in a failing grade for the assignment and/or exam and in the course. All
suspected violations will be reported to the Director of the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice
and handled in accordance with established UFV procedures.

Plagiarism occurs when a student presents as his/her own the work or data of someone else, or when
paragraphs, phrases, sentences or ideas are taken from another source without referring to or citing the
author. Any use of the work of others, whether published, unpublished, or posted electronically,
attributed or anonymous, must include proper acknowledgement. For additional information on
plagiarism, please see
https://www.ufv.ca/media/assets/counselling/Plagarism+and+Academic+Integrity.pdf

Cheating includes, but is not limited to, the following: (a) Communicating or attempting to
communicate with others during an exam; (b) Using or attempting to use other students’ answers,
providing answers to other students, or failing to take reasonable measures to prevent the use of one’s
answers by other students; (c) Using text books, materials, or technologies not sanctioned by the
instructor during an exam; (d) Consulting other students, materials, or technologies during or outside
of an exam; (e) Submitting work prepared in collaboration with others, when collaborative work has
not been authorized; (f) Misrepresenting one’s contributions to group projects; (g) Submitting work
prepared in whole or in part by another, including work purchased, and representing that work as one’s
own; (h) Offering for sale essays or other assignments; (i) Preparing work in whole or in part, with the
expectation that this work will be submitted by another student; (j) Submitting any academic work
containing a statement of fact or reference to a source that has been fabricated.

Impersonation occurs when one individual claims to be another in class, in an online class, or exam.
Improper access to examination materials occurs when a student acquires, possesses, and/or
distributes exams, exam material, or exam information without the instructor’s authorization.
Resubmission of work involves submitting, in whole or part, an essay, presentation, or assignment
more than once, whether the earlier submission was at this or another institution, unless prior approval
has been obtained from the instructor(s).

Penalties for academic misconduct may include, but are not limited to, the following: a written
reprimand; a requirement to complete the Academic Integrity Workshop; a score of zero for the
applicable assignment, exam, presentation, paper, or project; a grade reduction or no credit for the
applicable course; a recommendation of expulsion; revocation of an award, degree, diploma,
certificate, or other academic credential; denial of admission or readmission to the University and
forfeiture of awards or financial assistance.

Student academic misconduct is extremely serious and, if documented, will result in a failing grade for
the assignment and/or exam and in the course. All suspected violations will be reported to the Director
of the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice and handled in accordance with established UFV
procedures. For more information about academic misconduct and the procedures/guidelines for
investigations, decisions, and appeals, please review the Student Academic Misconduct Policy (Policy
70) at https://www.ufv.ca/media/assets/secretariat/policies/Student-Academic-Misconduct-(70).pdf

Page 9
CRIMINOLOGY 412 (ON1) Summer 2024

For non-academic conduct, students are expected to conduct themselves in a mature and responsible
manner, and will be held responsible for their actions, whether acting alone or in a group. In particular,
students are expected to be attentive and non-disruptive in class.

Attendance and Tardiness:

Although the delivery method will be online, it is in your best interests to check in/sign in and keep up
to date on the information/readings and announcements. Furthermore, some classes may have guest
lecturers, oral presentations, seminar discussions and other special learning activities may have
“required” attendance as the material is very difficult, if not impossible, to make up if you miss these
specific classes. Students who miss classes should be aware that class absences may adversely affect
their course participation marks, as applicable. If you cannot check in on a regular basis, as a
professional courtesy, please contact your instructor at the earliest possible time to let them know. You
are responsible for all material presented in the course.
Drop in classes begin at the scheduled time and you should arrive a few minutes early to enter the
virtual classroom to check your audio and camera. Students should be respectful of their classmates
and instructors by avoiding unnecessary tardiness. If you are late, please enter the virtual class with as
little disruption as possible.

No-Show Policy:
Students are required to check in during the first week of the course or notify the instructor in advance
if they are unable to attend. Any student who does not check in during the first week may be
withdrawn by the instructor under the Attendance policy. At the end of the first week, the instructor
completes a Notice of Withdrawal, Failure to Attend form, and submits it to OReg. The attendance
policy does not apply to students who drop out after the first class — these students must withdraw
themselves. Please remember that students who are not withdrawn will require a grade at the end of the
term.

Office Hours and Email Correspondence:

All students are encouraged to meet with the instructor during regularly scheduled office hours or by
making an appointment, particularly in relation to asking questions about course assignments and
exams. Students should use email correspondence with restraint and can generally expect a response
time of approximately 24-48 hours during regularly scheduled working hours (Monday to Friday).
The instructor reserves the right to ask students to come in person to office hours or at a mutually
agreed time to address specific inquiries.

Changing Status:
Students are expected to be aware of important Registration Dates, including course withdrawal dates.
See UFV Important Registration Dates.

You are expected to complete the assigned readings and materials for each week and manage your time to meet
all course requirements. There is no discussion forum for this course. However, please feel free to discuss course
content amongst yourselves online. If you choose to participate in an online discussion, please remember that
some topics are sensitive (i.e., there is considerable debate and differing opinions on the matter). Therefore, it is
very important that you communicate with each other in a respectful and constructive manner.

A list of services for students can be found at http://www.ufv.ca/studentservices.htm. Students with documented
disabilities requiring academic and/or exam accommodation should contact the Centre for Accessibility
Services at https://www.ufv.ca/accessibility at the beginning of the semester to arrange the necessary
accommodations. Students seeking accommodations are expected to follow the applicable Accessibility
Resource Centre procedures, including making advance arrangements for exams.

The UFV Priority Access to Student Supports (PASS) Program connects students to the supports and resources
that may help them to increase their chance of success. Such assistance may include putting students in touch
with an academic advisor, financial aid, a counselor, or another resource. If a professor is concerned about a
student’s progress, s/he may refer the student to PASS. The referral is treated confidentially and is sent because
a professor cares about a student’s progress and success in a course. A student’s response to PASS is entirely
voluntary. If a student does not wish their professor to make a referral to PASS, please let him/her know by
email.

It is your responsibility to review and understand the information in this course outline. If anything is unclear,
please do not hesitate to ask for clarification. This also holds true for material covered in this course. If you are
struggling with any of the readings or material, please do not hesitate to contact me during office hours or email
me with questions. Please use your UFV email address for all email correspondence.

International Peer Support provides academic and personal support to first year students who need assistance
navigating through their introductory courses. The program, open to both international and domestic students,
consists of peer supporters who have specific course content knowledge and can guide students with assignment
or academic integrity questions. They can help clarify course work expectations and direct students to the
relevant resources available on campus. International Peer Support can proactively help students be successful.
For more information, contact [email protected].

Instructor Responsibilities
I am here to help you and guide you! I will do my best to facilitate the objectives of this course and support you
to succeed. Please do not hesitate to come and see me if you need help. If you are struggling with the course
material, please see me as soon as possible. I am happy to discuss accommodations under extenuating
circumstances. In these cases, I ask that you contact me as soon as possible before the assigned due date and be
honest about your circumstances. We can then work together to find a solution. The best way to communicate
with me is through my UFV email. I will make an effort to respond to emails in a timely manner, which will
generally be within 24 hours.

Important General and Policy Information:

It is expected that students familiarize themselves with UFV policies, procedures, and services. Please
review the following information and refer to it as needed throughout your courses.
