Criminology Experiment

Today we continued our discussion on violence and media. We will be starting our project where you will get a chance to conduct a criminology experiment on your fellow students. The focus will be on how violence affects children. Today we spent time researching the links between the two. Some of the things we discussed was ethics. This is an example of a famous experiment that called into question the ethics of the researcher.

Next day we will be working on formulating a hypothesis and designing a methodology to test this hypothesis by means of an experiment.

Welcome

Your last year at Westview is about to commence and I would like to take the opportunity to welcome you all.

Education can be likened to a great big canvas and this year I would like my students to throw as much paint as they can on the canvas of their education. I appeal to the students, to value and uphold the importance of intrinsic motivation.

This year I have no doubt that you will throw yourselves into your education, you will make the most of the canvas of opportunity that you are offered and you will paint the goals that you aspire to. I have no doubt that if you remain motivated in the classroom, then you will achieve your goals.
