Abstract

ABSTRACT Availability and appropriate use of digital devices are indispensable for modern learning and work environments. Compared to school and university education, however, there is hardly any empirical, scientifically sound knowledge available on this subject for the area of police training and education. The study therefore examined how the use of personally assigned digital devices such as tablet PCs and smartphones, as well as the use of interactive whiteboards, is related to the learning behaviour and academic performance of 99 police trainees during 18 months of police training. The results showed that a frequent use of digital devices was related to an improvement in learning behaviour and interest. The results on academic performance of these 99 police officers trainees compared to the trainees without personally assigned digital devices of the same cohort (N = 629) are mixed. The study points out several practical implications for the further implementation of digital devices, such as the need for training the police personnel, developing new didactic teaching methods as well as new teaching formats.

数字设备-警察培训的游戏规则改变者?巴伐利亚警察培训的经验

数字设备的可用性和适当使用对于现代学习和工作环境是不可或缺的。然而，与学校和大学教育相比，在警察培训和教育领域，几乎没有关于这一主题的任何经验性的、科学上合理的知识。因此，这项研究调查了99名警察学员在18个月的警察培训期间，使用个人指定的数字设备，如平板电脑和智能手机，以及使用交互式白板，与学习行为和学习成绩之间的关系。结果表明，经常使用数字设备与学习行为和兴趣的改善有关。这99名警官学员的学习成绩与同一队列(N = 629)中没有个人分配数字设备的学员的学习成绩是混合的。该研究指出了进一步实施数字设备的几个实际意义，例如需要培训警察人员，开发新的教学方法以及新的教学形式。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
