So far, violence in close relationships has not been a natural part of sociology education and it has been appreciated to gain more understanding and knowledge of the area. It was very rewarding for participants to have the discussions during the group track.
When we did the group track, we got a common knowledge base; the conversations flowed easily and the arrangement met with appreciation
I think the course is very good because it gives everyone, regardless of previous knowledge of violence, a good foundation. It is easily accessible, free of charge and you can take it when you have time, pause and then continue. As an educator, I can use it in group education.
