Armin Police Technology Glossary
I will start by introducing myself. My name is Armin Khosravi. Currently, I have been studying Police Technology for 3 years at Ahuntsic College. The glossary that I will be making can help future police students to have an idea in which world they are going. Several students don't know where they are heading in their studies, and they decide to study in the police program for fun. My glossary will help them in certain way chose the right path for them. Also, it has 10 terms related to the basic notions of police. I can say that each words is part of the vocabulary commonly used in this field. To find the words for this glossary, I looked it up on Wikipedia and I tried to find all words that is related to the police. To look up the definitions of the words, you can use your dictionary or search the word online. You guys should create a glossary and talk about your program. For my sources, I used Wikipedia and google translate.
