Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Answers will vary, but students should consider a classification of special needs and an eventual placement of the nonviolent offenders (fraud, prostitution, and possibly burglary) in a third generation-type area, while using first- and second-generation-type areas for the remaining offenders. Students should recognize the need to separate the sexual pedophile offenders and the violent (felony assault) offenders-possibly using direct supervision-and obviously, males and females should be separated.
