刑事司法教育工作者面临的最大挑战之一是如何处理学生对刑事司法问题的强烈看法和先入为主的观念。它的形式通常是学生不愿意接受与他们自己的经验不相符的某些前提。拒绝那些不能证实你对世界看法的信息而接受那些证实你相信的信息的一般倾向被称为确认偏误。本文提出将刑事政策辩论形式作为一种主动学习策略。基于在一门入门课程中的应用，这门课程是三年制犯罪学学士课程的一部分，研究结果表明，辩论形式通过鼓励学生形成支持和反对刑事政策问题的论点来促进学习。
Abstract One of the biggest challenges for criminal justice educators is to deal with the strongly held opinions and preconceived notions about criminal justice issues among students. It often takes the form of students being reluctant to accept certain premises that does not comply with their own experience of the issue. The general tendency to reject information that does not confirm your own view of the world and to accept information that does confirm what you believe to be true is called confirmation bias. This paper proposes the criminal policy debate format as an active learning strategy. Based on the application in an introductory course that is part of a three-year bachelor program in criminology, findings show that the debate format facilitates learning by encouraging students to formulate arguments for and against criminal policy questions.
