경찰 직무별 핵심역량을 반영한 경찰학 역량기반 교육 방안

Abstract

In response to changes in the internal and external environment of universities along with changes in the police organization in Korea, changes are needed in the education of four-year police departments nationwide. Accordingly, police-related departments that have the educational goal of cultivating excellent public safety experts propose a plan to organize and operate a competency-based curriculum suitable for them. For competency-based education, the core competency of the police was derived by analyzing 「Guidebook on Core Competence by Police Job」 published by the National Police Agency. As a result of the analysis, the core competencies of the police are 7: situation judgment, problem solving, collaboration (teamwork), communication, interpersonal relationships, integrated thinking, understanding and application of laws, and these are reflected in the police science competency-based curriculum. Applying innovative teaching methods rather than setting competencies in individual subjects is more appropriate for competency-based education. Various innovative teaching methods such as flipped learning, discussion class, problem-based learning, and project-based learning should be applied to the police science curriculum. Police science competency-based education using innovative teaching methods requires not only the interest and efforts of the instructors, but also the willingness to participate and a lot of effort from the learners, from course design to operation and evaluation. This will contribute to sharing the results of competency-based education and designing a standardized competency-based curriculum. Since there are limitations in cultivating the core competencies of the police through the major curriculum, the lacking parts must be supplemented through liberal arts and extracurricular courses.
