Marquette University Physician’s Assistant Program: Dr. Joshua Knox – Power Point Presentation
I’ve shown Changing the Conversation for the past two years in our introductory public health course. The film is an excellent platform for health science students to begin a deep discussion on violence as a social determinant of health. New Moon’s portrayal of violence and its impact on the health in diverse Wisconsin communities is both unique and powerful. Because of its novelty as a topic for many students, I recommend staging the film and subsequent discussions with a broader discussion on violence prior to showing the film. For my students, this enabled them to grapple with their own relevant experiences of violence and think about their role both as citizens and future practitioners. The film and the follow-up discussion with Ms. Fitch has been received very favorably by my students. I recommend it highly for PA’s, medical students, nursing students, public health students, and graduate students in health programs.
