Abstract
This assignment, created by Simone Martin-Howard, Director of the MPA Public Policy and Administration Program and Associate Professor at John Jay College, asks students to analyze transcripts of qualitative interviews with correctional staff (officers and captains) at Rikers Island Jail. Students are guided through the process of first coding the texts of the transcripts, then analyzing the coded transcripts for emergent themes. Students ultimately present their findings in an oral presentation.
