Summary

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to explore "How can a police recruit training program support the use of journal entries as a learning tool within the Calgary Police Service?" The research hoped to define the challenges faced by police recruits and how those obstacles may be overcome through the use of journal entries. The use of journal entries as a form of reflective learning is entering its third year as a component of the Police Training Officer Program. Exploring the use of journal entries from the police recruit's perspective may provide the opportunity to consider what additional support is required from the Chief Crowfoot Learning Center and the organization as a whole to support this practise. The study is significant because the Calgary Police Service has never evaluated the use of recruit's journal entries as a means of reflection within the recruit training environment.
