Description

Offers students an opportunity to actively engage in their environment and to take full advantage of the Philadelphia area in developing an understanding of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights (focusing on the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th Amendments) as they pertain to the criminal justice system. Uses the Philadelphia community (CJRC and CFCF) and its deep history (Constitution Center and Eastern State Penitentiary) to introduce students to an interactive method of learning that encourages intellectual curiosity, holistic education, and community engagement in the learning process.
