British Youth Crime

This lesson uses various multimedia resources that I have gathered in an interactive Didapages book entitled British Youth Crime.

The lesson starts with a cover from Time magazine and ends with a series of audio files on the topic.

This book uses three main primary sources:

• a Time cover (UK edition) + an article about this special Time issue from Mail Online

• Data from “Crime in England and Wales, 2007/08 - Findings from the British Crime Survey and police recorded crime.” -> http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pd...] Home Office statistical bulletin.

• an online report “Inner-city youth, London” by Simon Wheatley
