Hi! I am taking GOVT-TEXAS GOVERNMENT this semester and I was assigned to a 2-3 pages essay called “Reflective Writing 2: Death Penalty”. This essay should be written in APA 7 format.
OBJECTIVE:
Use examples from the movie to explain the politics of TEXAS’ JUSTICE SYSTEM in the application of criminal proceedings and the nature of corrections policy to illustrate MEANING OF THE DEATH PENALTY/EYE FOR AN EYE MENTALITY; AND CREATE AN ARGUMENT SUPPORTING REHABILITATION, DEATH PENALTY OR LONG-TERM INCARCERATION AS THE BEST CORRECTIONAL POLICY APPROACH TO DEALING WITH CRIMINALS IN TEXAS.
INSTRUCTIONS:
When writing your essay, respond to the prompt completely and thoroughly. Essays must be a minimum of 2 PAGES in length (Excluding the title and reference pages), double spaced, 1-inch margins, 12-point font, and written in Times New Roman. Please start with the title page, then add a title (You can create an appropriate one) and the essay, and finish with a separate reference page. You need to use references from valid and current (LESS THAN 5 YEARS) sources that should be selected from a SCHOLARLY PEER-REVIEWED SOURCE such as a journal or scholarly sources like the U.S.A GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. Your statements should be supported by AT LEAST 4 REFERENCES including the VIDEO which will be mentioned below.
Your response should be your own thoughts and analysis. Citations should be formatted in APA 7. Research and resources should be incorporated with the scholarly application. I.e., used as examples or evidence to support your analysis. While outside research is not required it could help support your argument. Remember you do not have to cite anything that is common knowledge. Please provide proper in-text (parenthetical) citations. Failure to cite paraphrased work (no direct quotes), from the original work, thoughts, and/or ideas of someone, other than your own, will result in an automatic 0, with no make-up work being accepted. Make sure to use complete sentences and proper grammar. Your response to the prompt should focus on analyzing the information you have gathered and used it to provide examples that support your analysis.
“A” PAPERS SHOULD INCLUDE A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE VIDEO BY APPLYING AT LEAST 2 EXAMPLES TO SUPPORT YOUR POSITION.
PART 1: VIDEO ACCESS AND VIEWING
The video you are required to watch will cover the notorious Texas execution case of Todd Willingham. In 2004, Cameron Todd Willingham was executed for the arson (fire) deaths of his three children. The initial investigation found 20 indicators of arson, pointing to his guilt. When science is included and they reexamine the evidence used to convict Willingham, no sign of arson was found. Did Texas potentially execute a man who was innocent?
The video is publicly accessible through PBS Frontline’s official website. You can access the video by following the instructions provided below

PART 2: VIDEO REFLECTION, ANALYSIS, AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Write a reflective analysis of crime, justice, and punishment under application of the Death Penalty, IN TEXAS, based on the application of what you learned from the Todd Willingham Case Video. Please write an essay that addresses each of the prompt’s 2 components, Issue Position and Explanation, and application, outlined below.
ISSUE POSITION:
First, IDENTIFY WHETHER YOU ARE FOR, OR AGAINST USE OF THE DEATH PENALTY AS A FORM OF CRIMINAL PUNISHMENT (there is NO right or wrong answer). Successful completion of this assignment, and it is a learning objective, requires your compliance in identification or your personal position, and perspective, towards the issue of the “death penalty”. Responses are confidential and will be graded objectively, based on student’s independent, reflective analysis of their own individual personal perspectives, and application of the information.
EXPLANATION AND APPLICATION
Then, DISCUSS, AND DESCRIBE, THE NATURE OF POLITICAL DEBATE, surrounding the issue of the death penalty, and EXPLAIN HOW YOUR PERSONAL POSITION toward the issue has changed or been reinforced, with regard to application to crime, punishment, and justice in TEXAS, based on what you learned from the movie.
Please write a 2-3 PAGES essay according to the points that were mentioned above. Please respond to the prompt COMPLETELY AND THOROUGHLY. Please remember that “A” PAPER SHOULD INCLUDE A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE VIDEO BY APPLYING AT LEAST 2 EXAMPLES TO SUPPORT YOUR POSITION.
