Looking Glass for Workplace, Human Resources, Supervisors, and Managers

With the move to closing the campuses of colleges, universities, and K-12 schools and the general shift to working from home in recent weeks, there has been a sharp increase in threatening email communications. When combined with the recent rise in worry, stress, and frustration from students, faculty and staff, there is a need for a straightforward process to triage these concerns.

Looking Glass is an easy to learn expert system designed to assess online and written content. This approach to evaluating online communications, written narratives and social media posts is a must-have supplemental to your existing violence risk and threat assessment process. Based on research from their upcoming book by Taylor and Francis, An Educator’s Guide to Assessing Threats in Student Writing: Social Media, Email, and other Narrative, Dr. Brian Van Brunt, Jeff Solomon and W. Scott Lewis will share this effective and efficacious approach with you and discuss how to assess threat through the psychological, criminal, student conduct, and legal perspectives.

The system is easy to learn and apply, and is offered in four versions:

• K-12, College and University
• Title IX Coordinators and Investigators
• Law Enforcement
• Workplace: Human Resources, Supervisors and Managers
