- Summary:
-
In attempting to address the problems that are embraced by the term "corrections education," the study identifies three areas of inquiry: client education, staff education, and community education. Focusing on State funded corrections education programs in Oregon, data for the study were collected in 1973. Existing programs are reviewed highlighting those areas in need of change, current research applications, educational goals, and program recommendations are examined in the following areas of concern: (1) client education, (2) adult basic education, (3) vocational/paraprofessional education, (4) college education, (5) education release, (6) staff education, and (7) community education. It is concluded that solutions to society's crime problems lie in the area of "societal restructurings" rather than with behavior modification of individuals in correctional institutions. The study's lengthy and detailed recommendations include modifying existing programs and developing new programs to provide for a higher quality of education for corrections staff and the community at large and improved education and training opportunities for corrections clientele.
