Following the success of our file sharing site for psychology teachers (PsychExchange.co.uk if you didn’t already know) we now release to the masses a video clip sharing site. PsychClips is a great new web site for psychology teachers to share video and audio clips that are hosted on youtube-type sites.
There are already almost 100 [...]
Within Crime-Victim interaction we look at the ‘fear of crime’ and many students learn about the British Crime Survey as part of this. More-and-more so students are using out-dated versions of the BCS (like pre-2000 which seems to be in many text books) which are methodologically flawed in their delivery. Following [...]

The A2 Crime module covers a wide range of areas and the Home Office has an excellent resource which could come of use to you for lessons or just to get a little wider ranging information on crime theories, models and practice.
Over the past 2 decades our understanding of crime and crime reduction has grown. [...]
