Teaching criminal justice requires materials that are accurate, practical, and grounded in the realities of police work. This page serves as a central repository where instructors can find and share resources that support high quality instruction across high school, college, and academy settings. The focus is on straightforward teaching tools that help students understand the profession without noise or politics.
Educators are welcome to contribute lesson plans, lecture slides, assignments, classroom activities, case studies, quizzes, study guides, and full course syllabi. Materials may cover any area of criminal justice, including policing, investigations, constitutional law, courts, corrections, ethics, community relations, or public safety. Both basic and advanced resources are encouraged, and contributions from instructors with field experience are especially valuable.
All shared materials will be made freely accessible for classroom use. Contributors remain the owners of their work and may post or distribute their materials elsewhere. PolicingExplained provides a simple place to house resources that help instructors teach the realities of modern criminal justice with clarity and accuracy.
