For #8 if you answered ‘Agree’ or ‘strongly agree’, please explain in what way?
Speak out, help out, do something in a red dot situation
It gives me more confidence to do what I know needs to be done, which is stepping up
I thought she was interesting and nice, I liked the activities we participated in
It informed that these situations do happen and expressed own ideas about what to do
I know how to respond to red dot situations
I now have a new way to understand violence, abuse, what to do
It portrayed everything in a different manner
I learned that you don’t need to physically stand up, you just have to do something to make people notice.
The training gave me good skills and tactics to use.
In future events/situations, I will make sure I intervene in some sort of way.
It made me give pause as to my previous methods of dealing with issues
I never knew how to respond to situations like this, but now that I know the 3 D’s, I feel confident I can do something.
I learned new tools tonight to help in real life situations. I’m an EMT, now I see things differently.
I know now what I can and should do.
I will DO something when I see violence or a related incident happening.
In my career as a social worker.
Now that I have the basic skills to intervene properly in a potentially harmful situation, I will be more comfortable getting
involved in situations in which I come across.
How to act towards situations with different circumstances and male/female victims
Be more active
Now I will be more certain about what to do
It shows me how to intervene
I feel like I’m more mentally capable of intervening. Also, it’s more set in my mind to do so.
I now know how to address a different variety of situations which is greatly appreciated
I realized there were some situations I didn’t feel comfortable dealing with them, but know how to now.
In that I feel more comfortable in distracting and delegating red dot situations
Now I want to act when needed
It changed my mindset of the whole “girl was asking for it” mindset
I feel I know ways to get/approach a green dot situation
Would you recommend a friend attend this training? Yes
No
34 out of 35 said “Yes”
What did you find most useful about this training?
Discussing what to do
Hearing other’s perspectives
I found the activities most useful. Other people’s stories opened up my eyes to how violence happens quite a lot.
Information and to hear some stories of people that are here cause you never think this happens close to home
I like the various group activities/exercises because it let me listen to other people’s perspectives
I learned a lot of new information and a lot of stuff hit home. It was a very educational experience.
The training was funa and informative and I believe my friends would enjoy it.
I found the 3 D’s to be most helpful, because it shows how to respond.
Letting you find your own means
Different ways to intervene
Thought provoking
Learned how to be able to speak up without speaking up.
Communication and similar stories amongst students.
The different violent situations and ways to intervene.
Seeing what everyone would do and everyone thinking as well.
Very interesting!!!
What I should do in different situations. The 3 D’s.
All of the practical skills/info
Working with a group to get the point of view and thoughts of others.
Discussion
The discussions, corners, DDD
Responding to different situations
Different ideas
Different ways to get involved while staying safe.
The different group activities we did
The different types of intervening
The group activities and meeting new people really made all the difference
All of the group activities. Helping and getting people out of their shell
Having different types of ways to treat a situation.
Hearing about how other people would handle a situation and why
It was comfortable and social. Allowing trainees to congregate freely gave a relaxed atmosphere that increased the ease of
learning
All the different ways to act in a violent/dangerous situation
Warned the importance of intervening or at least as easy as bringing attention to problem can help a lot
The tools we learn to use and be able to approach and act
What did you find least useful about this training? What changes would you suggest?
Lack of breaks. More breaks
None
Nothing. I really enjoyed it.
The skits
I wouldn’t suggest any. It was very good. Maybe a little shorter.
I feel talking about each answer after the Yes, No, Depends would be interesting.
More examples and role play to develop skills. Legal information and ramifications for types of behavior. Violent responses
to violent situation – proportional response is perspective-based even in the courts.
The self-made skits were fun, but I feel it makes light of these actual situations and tends to be very unorganized
The skit, the group should keep their own skit
Nothing. Not quicker pace, but less time for brainstorming activities.
I think it all was useful!
First “Yes,” “No,” “Maybe” walk
Break training into smaller increments
Maybe do it on Mon-Thurs, not Fri, Sat or Sun. I am a commuter and don’t normally have classes on a Friday.
Nothing
It was a little long
I would try to condense the material to 4 hours or so – 5 was lengthy since we’re busy people.
EVERYTHING was useful
Creating a rela life situation. I would suggest you give us a specific scenario rather than us taking more time out to do it
It was all useful. Really. All activities were related and interesting
N/A it was fine – even the food
I wasn’t a fan of having to switch scripts. Keep scripts.
Very good training – worth the time spent!
What topics would you recommend for the future training?
Let us do our own skits!
Maybe more stats of how violence is used day to day
I would recommend an activity where people can get to know one another a little more.
Self-defense
I would recommend perhaps discussing more issues on sexuality and gender issues.
Handout of contacts and “whistle blower” types of things as well as help for people needing help.
Cyber bullying
Keep all topics Invite a first responder (EMT) to get a different view point “BSI scene safety.”
Bullies
How to deal if intervention goes wrong.
Allowing participants to tell personal stories and share their reactions to previous situations they were in.
Maybe a short slide about staff on victims in America
What to do if you are the victim, maybe defense training
More BLAST!
Maybe more about how men are portrayed (not all are the perpetrators)
Topics like abuse within your family or preventing suicide
Maybe a steps to follow program
Please feel free to add any additional comments or suggestions on the back of this form
The time all at once – I feel is better – it creates a better sense of rapport, and it keeps people feeling comfortable enough to
share and talk and be open. Breaking the 5 hours into different separate times would absolutely disrupt that
I think a Friday training works out.
I feel that splitting up the time might make more people come. It is a large chunk of time. I learned about it through email.
Maybe a bit earlier in the day, tired near the end, or split it up in half
The time and day worked for m. Friday was perfect as well as time!!!
The day and time was great! It’s been a great experience and I am so glad that y’all give the students at Stockton the
opportunity to learn the material offered in these trainings. Y’all did a great job and made this training into a thoroughly
enjoyable night. Thank you!
Split into 2 Fridays
It should be split up within two days and do it on a day of the week or precepting day.
Possible to break up training in 2 session instead of going 5 hours straight of training.
The day and time was great! It’s been a great experience and I am so glad that y’all give the students at Stockton the
opportunity to learn the material offered in these trainings. Y’all did a great job and made this training a thoroughly
enjoyable night. Thank you.

interfering
