  2. Which activities/lessons worked the best? Why do you think?

  3. Which activities/lessons were harder to get them involved in & why?

  4. Did you notice a difference in how the 6th, 7th and 8th graders responded to the activities (if you train multiple grades)?

  5. Do you think we should revise the activities/lessons for the students in a particular grade?

  6. What do you think the key concepts of the lessons/interventions are? Please just toss out some words/concepts….

  7. Do you think these concepts (which ones?) were understood by the students?

  8. Describe any factors that enhanced the implementation of the session.

  9. Describe any additional barriers or factors that disrupted the delivery of the session.

  10. What are the key lessons you learned that could be shared to support replication and future implementation of this curriculum?

The following discussion questions are relevant to Implementers who are also present in the daily school community. Descriptive examples of any of the following are welcome.

  1. Since completing the lessons/interventions, have you observed a change in students in your school/community along the following lines that might be attributed to the student curriculum:

  1. Exhibiting verbal or physical controlling and/or harassing behaviors?

  2. Any differences in the interactions between male and female students?

  3. A change in the frequency or substance of bystander interventions?

  4. Greater willingness to discuss or to seek help (e.g., teachers/counselors/administrators/other students) about dating violence and/or harassment issues?

  1. More broadly, have you noticed any changes in student conduct since beginning the lessons/interventions? Do you think the lessons/interventions are responsible, either directly or indirectly, for any positive or negative changes in the students?

  2. Is there anything in general that you would like to add about the whole experience of being part of a research project? Feel free to comment either about the students, or your experiences/perceptions/observations.
