How do I come up with ideas to guide an inquiry based in Critical Pedagogy?

1.) I read the article, [|Grad Student Finds Poetry in the Mountains]. Please read it now.

What ideas are coming to you for connecting this to an academic discipline, while also taking a critical stance?

2.) I thought of you guys, your reading ability, your history, and your current place.

3.) Check out the author's [|blog].

4.) Check out a [|review] of her collection and read some of her poetry.

5.) What's critical about her work?

6.) What's [|Appalachian Rising]?

7.) Check out this [|article] about songs written about coal mining? Listen to part of one. How can you incorporate music in your classroom?

8.) What else could this inquiry go?
