Hi Candace and group members,

I received this information as well and visited the site to view the
program.  From my perspective, it is a good idea but has some inherent
problems:

1.  Students can multi-task (or simply not attend to it) while watching.
The video producers have included a pre and post test to make it less
likely students will stop watching it altogether, but I think smart
students know how to answer these with limited involvement.

2.  It is easier to not connect emotionally when watching a video than
in a presentation.  I've always felt that one of our most important
tasks is connecting with students on an emotional level, which is where
the real change comes about.

3.  The student actors come off as too "scripted" and the dialogue seems
a bit insincere for me - students may not see it the way I do though.

I am going to get some of our students to take a look at it and give me
feedback - would like to know what those of you who have used it think
about it.  I also notice it's hard to get specific info about the cost
of this program.

Subject: online sexual assault program


Hello all - 

 

I just received a brochure in the mail about an online sexual assault
prevention program called nformd.net (http://nformd.net
<http://nformd.net/> ). I have never heard of it before today, and
wanted to know if anyone has any experience with it. If you have used
it, how was it received on your campus? Do the students actually visit
the site?

 

Thanks!!
