Assessment Activities

Assessment Methods
  • Direct observation of performances, practical exams, group work
  • Annual Retreat
Assessment DescriptionAt the annual retreat, peer educators had an opportunity to dialogue about how they felt the new Alex-CJ activity was going. Though I saw it as quite successful through my observations of a total of 50 end of fall and spring semester presentations, allowing us to use it in both 50- and 80-minute presentations and when peers-in-training present, the peer educators believed we could make adjustments that would make it go even smoother.
Learning Outcomes7. Assess student evaluations and create new and/or revise hand-outs and presentation methodology.
Number of Coursesone (50 observations)

Data AnalysisAll peer educators are satisfied with the new Alex-CJ activity.
Next Steps Planned

We have made a slight revision on the Alex-CJ activity, so it is now referred to as the "Alex-CJ, the peer educator/friend" role play. There have been other minor changes, which the peer educators believe will make the role play go more smoothly. They did admit that first year peer educators had an easier time switching to the revised Alex-CJ activity because they learned it when they went through the "Ending Sexual Violence - Peer Education" training class. Senior peer educators had to unlearn and relearn through two hour-long training sessions in the fall. We had originally planned to consider incorporating "Alex-CJ, the peer educator/friend" role play into the Expect Respect SF (EFSF) script, but the ERSF peer educators said we should extend the Carla and Joey story instead of introducing a new element. We will convene an ERSF focus group in the fall to revise that section of the script with the plan to pilot it in Fall 2013 and implement in Spring 2014. The tentative title is "Alex-Carla, the friend" role play. Lastly, we discussed how to ensure that when explaining the program philosophy regarding power abuse, we do not imply that women are powerless.

Learning Outcomes

Same as previous answer PLUS #6 Demonstrate an awareness of the premise of PS/ERSF programs (political, social, and psychological causes of sexual violence).
