If you were considering building a sportsplex somewhere in the northeastern Unit

If you were considering building a sportsplex somewhere in the northeastern United States, where would you build it? Choose your ideal location based on demographics or other criteria that you can justify. Then use the Internet to find an open plot of land that is large enough to sustain your facility. As an example, typical urban golf courses need around 110 to 120 acres, whereas resort courses are larger, averaging around 170 to 190 acres. A softball facility can range from 20 to 60 acres but could be much larger if additional land is acquired for future expansion. Thus, you need to make sure the plot of land is large enough. How much will it cost to purchase the land? Draw a rough diagram of the land and how your facility will fit on the land. Make sure you focus on the topography of the land and the orientation of the facility on the land.

1. Consider what factors YOU might use to define whether a BIP has been effective or
not. Before you begin viewing the powerpoints, or reading the articles, write one or
two paragraphs where you identify the basic components for BIP success from your
point of view.
2. View: Now it is time to view the powerpoints and the accompanying text. Based on
the content of the powerpoints, what do you think is the greatest challenge facing BIP
programs? Offer your response in no more than 300 words.
3. Read: After you have read the three articles, we would like for you to analyze some
of the major challenges facing those who are working to intervene in cases involving
intimate partner violence. Think about the controversies and the challenges and offer
10-12 bullet points that highlight the issues (and provide 2-3 sentences of explanation
for each one).
4. Implications: Choose one controversy or complication in batterer intervention
services and offer several suggestions as to how you would address that issue if you
were in charge of BIP services for a particular geographical region.

1. Consider the notion that culture is a key component of any effective intervention
program. What are some components of culture? Offer an example from your own
life to illustrate why culture matters (100-150 words). Later in this module you will
see how researchers and BIPs view culture.
2. View: For this module, there are quite a number of powerpoint slides and
accompanying text. As you work your way through these, be mindful especially of
the role of religion and ethnicity in how men and women understand family life and
its roles, rights and responsibilities. Explore briefly (around 100 words each) three
new insights you have gleaned from the text included with the powerpoints.
3. Read: Now it is time to read the three selected articles, one on religion, the other two
exploring issues of divergent ethnic backgrounds. Using bullets, highlight in 6-8
points why it is critical for intervention programs to offer culturally appropriate
intervention strategies. Offer examples.
4. Implications: Explore (in 250-300 words) why it might

1. Consider what you have tried to do in the past to change the behavior (not related to
abuse or violence) of a friend or family member. Were you successful or not? Now
consider what a friend or family member might have done to help you to change a
behavior. Were they successful or not? Reflect upon these experiences in one or two
paragraphs.
2. View: For this module, we have a larger number of powerpoint slides (and notes) for
you to cover. That is why we have reduced your reading to one article for this
module. As you work your way through the powerpoints, think about all the various
models that have been developed to help violent people change their behavior. Offer
an overview of 4 modules (100-150 words each) that capture their most important
features. Do so in your own words.
3. Read: Now it is time to consider some of the practice-based evidence. Read the
Holtrop et al. article and reflect on their observations and conclusions. Prepare a list
of 5 points that you think capture most clearly the central points they discuss.
4. Implications: If you had great financial resources at your disposal, what innovation
might you offer to an intervention program to increase its success rate in helping
those who are violent change their thinking and their actions? Offer your creative
idea in 3-4 sentences. Then offer one creative idea that costs very little, or nothing at
all
