NEW CONTENT FOR TEACHING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, PLUS LAW ENFORCEMENT AND HEALTH CURRICULA

Professors and teachers planning courses for the fall will find lots of new material in the “For Educators” section (reached from the top menu bar).   We’ve created resources to spark class discussion and material for assignments, research papers and further study.   We offer a selection of material for classes on domestic violence (social work, sociology, women’s studies),  and also have collections for law enforcement and health care training.   Each collection includes:
– A note from the Director.
– A overview of the film.
– Suggested “key questions” for class discussion.
– A timed chapter summary.
– Full transcript.
