The use of learning analytics to measure, collect & analyse data from police learners to optimise programmes & improve the development environment could revolutionise policing learning as Dr Matthew Jones & @DrBartRienties of the @OpenUniversity explain policinginsight.com/features/innov…

Despite the 3.30am GMT start, it was great to present our @VPolicing project at #ANZSOC2021 this morning. So much of what we have found in the UK applies to police internationally. @OU_police_res @OUBSchool

Previous incarnations of online learning in policing left many underwhelmed & uninspired. In the 1st of a new series on CPD, Dr Matthew Jones of @OU_police_res sets out to dispel some long-held myths and explore the new world of blended learning. policinginsight.com/features/shaki…
