Overview
In this assignment, you will review policing communications. You will identify areas of improvement in the communications and create new communications to address the identified areas of improvement.
Prompt
In this module, you have learned how to craft objective policing communications without bias. You will now apply this knowledge to identify mistakes in communication and create new communications that address those mistakes.
First, download the Module Three Practice Activity Template so you can fill it out. (The template is linked in “Guidelines for Submission” section.)
For each communication example in the template, identify what the mistake in the communication is, which may include biased, unclear, or missing information. (You will identify the mistake by copying text from the “Original Communication” column and pasting it into the “Communication Mistake” column.)
Then create a new communication that addresses the mistake you have identified for each example. Include only the text that would make up your new communication, which should be clear and should include all necessary information, with no bias.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Communication 1

A patrol unit is dispatched after a 911 call in which a concerned citizen related she observed two Middle Eastern–looking males pull into a gas station and park in the rear of the building. They exited their vehicle and took out what appeared to be “rugs.” After the rugs were laid out, the men knelt on them and began kissing the ground. Officers observed the behavior upon arrival and approached the men to ask what they were doing. The men, who quickly became agitated, stated, “Couldn’t you hear us? We were only praying!” One officer then stated, “You’re speaking another language. For all I know you just said, ‘SEE THOSE OFFICERS OVER THERE? LET’S KILL THEM!’” The men now demand that a supervisor respond to the scene. |
