Explores how policing students and police officers might apply
theory to tackle dilemmas demonstrated through true to life
scenarios. Relevant for those undertaking the Professional Policing
degree, Apprenticeships or the Degree Holder Entry Programme, as
well as their academic and work-based educators, it examines the
complexities faced on a daily basis by frontline officers. A
range of fictional realistic case studies are presented in order to
highlight contemporary challenges in the modern policing landscape.
These are unpicked through discussion and reflective questions,
exploring how decisions are made based on theoretical understanding
and practical considerations in context. Key themes within these
scenarios include procedural justice, legitimacy, organisational
culture, prioritisation of workload, objectivity and neutrality,
human rights and values. The book provides students and their
educators with the opportunities to discuss policing dilemmas and
decision-making in a safe space.
Evidence-based policing is a core part of the National Policing
Curriculum but policing students and new officers often feel
daunted by the prospect of understanding research and how to use it
to inform decision making in practice. This text helps readers
develop a sound understanding of evidence-based practice in
policing and contextualises the research process by explaining how
it supports practice within the workplace. It clearly relates
research to the investigative process, combining academic theory
and operational understanding using relevant case studies and
scenarios, and identifies the main approaches employed. It explores
how evidence from research can be used to inform and develop
critical arguments central to policing practice and signposts
students to key sources of information. The Professional Policing
Curriculum in Practice is a new series of books that match the
requirements of the new pre-join policing qualifications. The texts
reflect modern policing, are up-to-date and relevant, and grounded
in practice. They reflect the challenges faced by new students,
linking theory to real-life operational practice, while addressing
critical thinking and other academic skills needed for degree-level
study.
