Primary Task Response: The Individual Project for this week involves giving a presentation to a city council and city manager in a public forum regarding their consideration of transition from traditional policing to community-oriented policing & problem solving (COPPS). Review the Unit 4 Individual Project and then explain how you would prepare for the upcoming presentation in the city council meeting.
In your response, answer each of the following questions:
- Would you use PowerPoint or other electronic aids in your presentation? If so, which would you use and why. If not, why not?
- What kind of research would you engage in to provide the information and analysis that the city manager and city council have requested? Why?
- Would you meet with anyone as part of getting this presentation ready? If so, who and why?
- Would you make the presentation to the city manager and city council alone, or would you bring others with you to brief and/or answer questions? If so, who and why? If not, why not?
