Teaching Criminology: the Human Element

Soliman, Francesca; Hafner, Miha; McNeill, Fergus

Abstract

As part of the SCCJR’s ‘Teaching Criminology’ series, the Centre is organizing a session which explores the ‘human element’ in teaching criminology.

The session bridges the gap between criminologists as researchers and criminologists as teachers by recognizing the ‘human’ side that is inherent in both roles and that allows criminologists to shift from one role to the other. This element becomes particularly prominent when criminologists engage in research and teaching of sensitive topics, and when they become a vessel for transferring and interpreting the knowledge gained through research to be used in the classroom.
