abstract="This article presents the planning and implementation of a Violence and Health Immersion Workshop for undergraduate nursing students. Given the enormous personal and economic costs of violence, the central importance of addressing violence issues in nursing curricula is emphasized. The application of three key interpretive pedagogical strategies is described: choosing critical social science as a conceptual framework for the workshop; placing specific emphasis on the decentering of content; and creating space for learners to explore this difficult issue. Formative and summative evaluations of the workshop indicated that the majority of students found the workshop to be helpful in providing the opportunity to examine and shift their own values, attitudes, and beliefs regarding violence and health. Recommendations for future research include the need for increased knowledge regarding barriers to the implementation of interpretive pedagogies, and for greater insight regarding the process of attending to differences in the participants and the facilitators.",
