Classes finished watch and taking notes on "Law and Disorder."
Classes discussed myths about the criminal justice system perpetuated by the media.
Mr. Zartler gave the following information about finals:
Test:
All topics covered this semester.
Not designed to "trick" but requires understanding
Some short answer: e.g. explain how
Few analysis: e.g. why?
Vocabulary is part of the test, but not enough to pass (see two items above).
Units:
Intro / history
History: Articles of Confederation v. Constituion; Great Compromise
Federalism: Structure; Supremacy Clause; SCOTUS; State v. Federal; electeds
Bill of Rights: What is protected? What is not?
Street Law (less than 5%) What to do / not do?
When deciding what to study, think about:
What are the "big issues," themes, ideas?
What id we study that can't be asked (easily) A, B, C, D?
What could you have a conversation about?
Bring texts to next class.
