Abstract | This guide provides a framework to help secondary teachers and students explore the growing societal problems of shoplifting. The guide can be used in inservice programs as well. Five sessions are designed to inform students of the social, legal, and economic aspects of stealing. In these sessions, students define shoplifting, discuss the types of people who shoplift, list reasons for shoplifting, and analyze personal values and attitudes toward this crime. They consider the effect of a shoplifting record on future employment and educational activities, and define terms such as larceny, misdemeanor, and felony. Also, students describe procedures for the apprehension of a shoplifter and analyze consumer and merchant rights and responsibilities. Finally, following a survey of local merchants, students describe problems caused by shoplifting in terms of costs to businesses and consumers. Activities include small group discussions, reading supplemental articles, attitude surveys, using community resources, and role playing. Pre- and posttests and a list of resources including reviews of film and media kits are supplied. Transparency masters, answer keys, and student evaluations are included in appendices. (KC) |
