Education and communication are key to preventing this these types of incidences. Understanding "consent" is also important.
The main message from this course is taking consent and training on policies is very important.
All students and faculty should be educated on these kinds of things relating to Title IX and VAWA.
Its really good information for every one to have clue what to do and how to act ,for all students and faculty.
This has been excellent information; much of what I teach in my Human Sexuality class for Garden City Community College. I have found that understanding consent is very important for everyone to know, as this can either be unclear, or misunderstood
Sexual trauma has neurobiological changes that impact victim behavior and all coordinators/investigators involved need to understand those changes and how they impact the victim
valuable information that's imperative
From this module, I have learned the importance of being knowledgeable about the VAWA crimes to include dating and domestic violence in order to be a reliable resource for students/staff/members of my institution should the need arise.
I agree with Lisa, C; students need to be trained about sexual abuse and Alcohol/drugs.
While under the influence of Alcohol or drugs it is difficult to prevent unwanted advances of sexual approaches.
NO RETALIATION!!!. everyone should be free and comfortable to report bad behavior.
Evaluation of consent is a very valuable piece of this module. It would be great if the designers of the course could add some interactive activities to practice.
I agree with all comments as it pertains to laws governing safety for all from this content. Also, it is important that everyone truly understand the general meaning/differences in consent.
Sexual violence and dating violence offer different types of investigations.
All staff and students are educating regarding sexual harassment, domestic violence, rape, stalking
I agree with you it really is helpful
Prevention and education are critical components of efforts to address and reduce incidents of sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking on college campuses and in other educational institutions. By implementing comprehensive prevention and education strategies, educational institutions aim to create a safer and more respectful campus environment while empowering individuals to recognize and address instances of sexual misconduct.
By addressing components such as harassment, domestic violence, sexual violence, etc. in Title IX and VAWA training, educational institutions can create a comprehensive and proactive approach to prevention and education, fostering a campus culture that prioritizes safety, respect, and equality.
I agree that it's a very good idea for school employees to be trained in victim behavior and trauma response. I think that not only will they be better listeners but they will be more helpful in guiding a victim that may come to them with an incident to report.
Comment on Harold Ortiz's post: agree on that!
I did not know that the first two years of college and the first few months of the school year were the highest risk of sexual assault.
