| Description: | Mike Tomlinson tutored Criminology courses with The Open University between 1986 and 1992 and tutored students in the H Blocks of the Maze and Long Kesh Prison and in four other prisons across Ireland. In this clip he recalls how The Open University course team for Crime Justice and Society (D310) asked him because of his local subject expertise to prepare a reading list and guide to the Criminal Justice process in Northern Ireland. He reflects on his engagement and intellectual debates with prison students and the challenges of teaching that subject material in the prisons. |
