CRIMINAL JUSTICE TODAY · FRANK SCHMALLEGER
Walk a case through the justice system
Step into a different decision-maker's seat at every stage of Miranda v. Arizona. Make choices, defend them in writing, and discover how individual rights and public order pull against each other.
The full process
12 process stages + a capstone
Walk one real case through every stage of the adult criminal justice process — from investigation and arrest, through charging, the courts, trial, and sentencing, to corrections and reentry — then judge the whole case in a final capstone.
Guided decisions
Balance, your AI guide, frames each stage with the rights and order arguments at stake.
Written defenses
Every decision needs a short, defended explanation to build your reasoning.
Professor review
Professors approve AI-drafted feedback and scores before they are final.
A closed academic space
Only professors and their own students can see the work inside. No student work is ever visible to another student.
