Essay: The Effectiveness of Victim-Offender Mediation Assignment Instructions Overview In this assignment, you will apply the learning material meaningfully to clarify your understanding of victim-offender mediation in the restorative justice process. The victim-offender mediation process is when the victim is provided the opportunity to meet with their offender, with the purpose of engaging in a discussion in a safe space. The purpose of such a meeting is to address the offender’s behavior through a face-to-face encounter. In the end, the desired goal is to empower the victim and facilitate the rehabilitative process for the offender. Instructions: Your essay seeks to have you examine the role that mediation has between the victim and the offender in order to achieve justice. Examine how victim-offender mediation is a transformative process.
Then, evaluate the ways in which victim-offender mediation is effective for both the victim of the crime and the offender: -The length of your assignment is three pages. -This assignment requires a title page, abstract, and reference section, all of which are not included in the page count. -Your essay format is APA. Headers/running headers are needed for the following independent sections: An introduction section is needed. A Christian Worldview section is needed. An Opposing viewpoint section is needed. A Conclusion section is needed. See the assignment rubric for further details, including reference requirements. Peer-reviewed scholarly resources (should be within five (5) years when possible).
Both must be fully formatted within APA format, including a cover page, abstract, and reference page. Your introductory paragraph ends with a clear thesis statement(s), which clearly lets your reader know what the remainder of the paper will be about (note that the thesis statement is developed in your own words from the assignment criteria). For clarity’s sake, consider a fully developed paragraph composed of 5-9 complex sentences of about 150 words. The body of your paper will flow logically from the clear thesis statement(s) provided at the end of the first paragraph. Please note that after the main answer, you must include an Opposing Viewpoints section (header) (In an academic paper, an opposing viewpoint would present an alternative perspective or argument to the central thesis, fostering a balanced discourse.) Please include a section before your concluding paragraph that expresses your Christian worldview (please note that I want you to create an independent section of the formal assignment addressing the Christian viewpoint for my class.
The Christian worldview should come after the main answer and opposing viewpoints (for formal papers) BUT before the conclusion. Do not incorporate the Christian worldview in the main body of the paper, as this can confuse the student and lead to the student not incorporating a Christian worldview in each section. A Christian worldview is a comprehensive framework through which individuals interpret and respond to the world based on Christian principles, centered on the belief in God, the teachings of Jesus Christ, and the authority of the Bible.), which aligns with the assignment’s themes, and a concluding paragraph that provides your reader with a recap of the main themes (remember, no new information should be included in your concluding paragraph). Your paper ends with a properly formatted (beginning at the top of the last page) reference page. The paper should be scholarly and have peer-reviewed references, a running header and page numbers, correct font type and size, error-free spelling, etc.
