Mae'n cynnwys theoriau'r Bedwaredd Ganrif ar Bymtheg i'r presennol. Gosodir y maes yn ei gyd-destun deallusol a hanesyddol, ag asesir yn feirniadol gwaith y meddylwyr allweddol. Prif bwrpas y fodiwl yw dangos pa mor berthnasol yw syniadau troseddeg i'r astudiaeth o faterion troseddu a chyfiawnder troseddol. Ymhlith y safbwyntiau a thestynau yw'r canlynol: damcaniaethau diwylliannol, niwtralieddio a thechnegau gwadu cyfrifoldeb, safbwyntiau labelu a throseddeg beirniadol. Bydd y fodiwl yn cymryd agwedd ehangach er mwyn gofalu bod myfyrwyr yn gyfarwydd ag ystod eang o egluron gweithgaredd troseddol a dioddefaint.
Course content
Mae'r fodiwl yn gyflwyniad blaengar i faes troseddeg yn y Bedwaredd Ganrif ar Bymtheg i'r presennol. Ymdrinir a damcaniaethau cymdeithasegol o drosedd a dioddefaint yn enwedig: damcaniaethau diwylliannol a thechnegau niwtraleiddio; cyflwyniad i droseddeg feirniadol, cyflwyniad i ddioddefoleg; cymhwyso damcaniaethau i broblemau rheolaeth troseddu a phlismona o ddydd i ddydd.
Assessment Criteria
good
Da Bydd dadansoddiad da a soled o theoriau, defnydd o ffynonellau academaidd (ag argymhellir). Ceir defnydd o esiamplau i ddangos theori mewn ymarfer. Mae'r asesiad wedi ei sylfaenu ar ffynonellau academaidd a chyfeiriadu, a dyfynnu pwrpasol.
threshold
Boddhaol Ychydig o ddadansoddiad feirniadol a gyflwynir a cheir defnydd cyfyngiedig o ffynonellau academaidd (yn enwedig yr rhai ag argymhellir). Mae'r gwaith yn orddibynnol ar esiamplau o ddigwyddiadau cyfoes i ddangos theori mewn ymarfer. Bydd yr asesiad wedi sylfaenu ar ychydig o waith academaidd yn unig gan ddibynnu'n ar ffynonellau'r We a pheth cyfieiriadu a dyfyniadau sylfaenol.
