Abstract
High-impact practices (HIPs) implemented in criminal justice have traditionally been designed as stand-alone courses. However, HIPs can also be integrated into existing criminal justice courses to deepen student empathetic understanding of key roles and concepts. As such, the purpose of the present study is threefold. First, we provide a discussion of a HIP probation simulation project created as a key part of an undergraduate community corrections elective course utilizing the D.E.A.L. Model for Critical Reflection for all assessments. Second, we examine student experiences at the conclusion of the HIP by performing a content analysis of the summary experience papers for themes related to their overall experience, and individual empathetic experiences as a probationer and probation officer. Third, we discuss suggested modifications for future iterations of this and similar HIPs implemented within existing criminal justice courses.
