CONCEPT CHECKED:
1. Give incites about the historical evolution of prison system, and give the concepts of
penal colony.
My understanding of this matter is that the earliest records of the prison
system date back to 1000 BC. In the early historical civilization of Mesopotamia
and Egypt, I found it to be a very important milestone of the prison system
because it uplifts about primarily the detention centers built as underground
dungeons wherein offenders were held there until they were sentenced to either
death or slavery. Looking back on our significant evolution of the prison system,
we can manifest various changes and symbolic instances that up to this point are
significant. The prisons of ancient Greece were typically poorly isolated
structures in which inmates were locked inside and chained at their feet with a
straightforward wooden block. However, because visits from friends and family
were common, the Greek form of confinement was a little bit more humane. The
Roman prison system was extremely inhumane because it was primarily housed
in underground cells that were typically cramped, dark, and small. In the
meantime, houses of correction began operating in and around London by the
end of the 17th century, bringing about significant changes to the prison system.
In the United States, we refer to these facilities as correctional facilities that focus
on rehabilitating inmates and reintegrating them into society. This development
largely began with the Bridewell Prison, which was the first prison in England and
pioneered the use of separate cells and a classification system for inmates. On
the other hand, the idea of a penal colony can be seen in many different ways,
especially in the sense that a penal colony focuses on preventing a specific
individual from repeating a punishable act or from breaking the law in the same
way. In addition, it was made with the intention of reintegrating criminals into the
community and fostering greater community acceptance. To bring back a citizen
who values peace, knows nothing, and abides by the law. A penal colony is an
institution devoted to acclimating criminal offenders and protecting society from
crime, according to its concept.

4. By applying your future career as BJMP personnel, how can you explain the rights
and privileges of inmates in your facility?
In a place in which anybody is defective and deprived via way of means of the
issues and wellbeing of normal citizens, there’s a melting element in our hearts in
which we will recognize that we nonetheless have the honor of being capable of
satisfy ourselves and stay with our independence. In this regard, as a destiny BJMP
official, I can give an explanation for the rights and privileges of the inmates in my

nonetheless created same in a single heaven in which they maintain to release. Like

inside the institution, explaining their rights to make sure the indispensable
improvement of prisoners, maximize the network as an area of extrude and renewal,
forming attitudes, conduct and persona to the status quo of simple prisons. Human

5. According to the Historical Context of Jail, where did Jail first discovered?
According to Historical Context of Jail, it was first discovered in Medieval
Europe. In 1116, King Henry ll of England ordered every sheriff to establish a goal
pronounced “jail” in his shire for the purpose of securing offenders until they could be
brought before the King’s court. Eventually, the same goals were also used to
contain prisoners after trial as a means of punishment.
6. What is the concept covered by jail? How does it Functioned?
The jail is intended to house inmates awaiting trial and those serving short
sentences. It is a point in the process between being convicted and being admitted
to long-term correctional facilities. In addition, criminals convicted of misdemeanor
offenses are detained in the jail. As the most prevalent form of confinement in the
Philippines, jails play an important role in our nation’s correctional system. One of
the three main areas of the country’s public safety services that focuses on
penological and correctional activities, such as the rehabilitation of inmates or
people in custody or detention or being punished for violations of laws or ordinances,
is jail services (PPSC Handbook 6).
7. Identify Provincial Jail from BJMP. What are the functions of these two jails?
Provincial jail is under or will be administered and constrained by the
commonplace government inside its ward. Wherein its capability is that it is
answerable for the responsibility, confinement, security, and restoration of people
who are either carrying out punishment, kept, or held for preliminary by the provincial
jail as well as to give altruistic protection and reformatory administrations to
detainees for inevitable reintegration and mainstreaming to society. Then again,
BJMP is an office under the DILG, ordered to practice management and command
over all city and metropolitan, and area prisons. Though its capabilities are the
accompanying: First, figure out arrangements and rules in the organization of all
locale, city, and civil prisons from one side of the country to the other. Second, areas
of strength for execute measures for the control of prisoners. Third, accommodate
the essential requirements of prisoners. Lead exercises for the advancement of
prisoners. Fifth, further develop prison offices. Ultimately, advance the overall
government assistance and improvement work force.
8. Give at least three functions of BJMP and identify at least three standard operating
procedures and give the significance of it.
Formulate policies and guidelines in the administration of all district, city, and
municipal jails nationwide. Implement strong security measures for the control of
inmates. And Provide for the basic needs of inmates. These are some of the
functions of BJMP. Some of the standard operating procedures for BJMP specified
in the module are: Detainees are fingerprinted and photographed as this serves as a
detainee’s identity document and is a convenient way to easily check if the person
intends to break the rules of the system. It is essential. The inmate then completes a
prison financial report with a photo of the inmate attached for reference. It serves as
a basis for staff to identify physical characteristics of individuals and is seen in
particular as a means of easily classifying specific offenders. Finally, newly arrived
prisoners are completely undressed and examined. His clothing should also be
carefully checked for contraband. He was then examined for moles, cuts, bruises,
other injuries, and needle sticks to determine if he was a drug addict. This standard
operating procedure of the BJMP is a way to ensure harmonious relations within the
prison are not compromised, paving the way for a surge of peace and security within
the facility.
9. As a future criminologist, specifically as BJMP Personnel, how will you treat an
inmate? Explain?
As one of long-standing time criminologists who is forecasted to swim into a
greater world of opportunity within the challenging encompassing of BJMP, for me
as a future personnel I will treat a detainee in a most obedient and respectful activity.
I will do this within the sense that as prisoners they should be treated with the regard
due to their characteristic nobility and esteem as human creatures. I will treat them
without separation on the grounds of race, color, sex, dialect, religion, political or
another conclusion, national or social beginning, property, birth, or another status.
Aside from that, as faculty, it is my most extreme commitment to treat them with
alluring adoration to their devout convictions and social statutes of the bunch to
which the detainee has a place.
10. Give your feedback on what you have learned about this subject from module 1 up
to last modules of CA 1 Institutional Corrections subjects.

easy to survive. But every discussion, reporting, activities, quizzes, and question and
answer portion with the reporters, I have gained knowledge. Not only from my
teacher, from my modules, but also from my classmates who extended their efforts
of sharing us their knowledge and ideas. From the first module up to the last, I could
say that I’ve learned so much that essential in my upcoming new experience next
