This could be paired with a conversation about inclusion of perspectives within our class discussions...??]]> 2016-11-08 15:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jbecker2/docrhetoric/wish/136130829 https://padlet.com/jbecker2/docrhetoric/wish/136130968 How do we get students to broaden their horizons and go beyond shallow topics for research?]]> 2016-11-08 15:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jbecker2/docrhetoric/wish/136130968 https://padlet.com/jbecker2/docrhetoric/wish/136131878 The profound nature of the simplicity of the documentary is its power.
