write an outline for this question “Q2. Statistics are routinely deployed in criminological research and in policy and program development by agencies in the criminal justice sector. The importance of this quantitative data is predicated on the assumption that it is objective and value free. Some would argue that this is not always valid given the difference sources of crime statistics such as police statistics, community surveys and victim surveys. Critically discuss the assumption that crime statistics are objective and value free. Use relevant examples to support your paper” This should include how are you planning to answer the question, key issues you will cover, structure of the essay and key arguments you want to present.
Remember we want to clearly see that you have engaged with the question and have started researching the essay you are going to write. At this stage, your essay is a work in progress – this outline will give us the opportunity to check you’re on the right track and provide feedback to steer you in the right direction. So that you can get the best out of this guidance, it is important that you include a summary of some of the points that you plan to make.
Example of a low mark:
I am going to research the question and have one paragraph on X theory and one paragraph on Y theory
Example of a high mark:

• X theory is….
• Conversely, Y theory is….
• Signpost for the body of the essay
X theory (600 words) Paragraph one:

Some general tips:
• It is appropriate to use subheadings
• It is appropriate to use paragraphs or dot points, but dot points should
be explained in full sentences. For example, you might have a subheading, with points underneath that outline what arguments you will make, which theorists it will draw on and what contemporary examples you’re going to focus on
• The theory should be clearly linked to your arguments
• You should reference the authors you intend to cite (eg Surette, 2007)
but you do not need to cite the entire reference in the outline
• There is a 10% leeway on the word count
