Thank you for sharing this post, I am happy to have learned about your class...will definitely check it out. It is good to teach and share the skill of "active participation" or "conscious experiencing" when reading/watching/listening/feeling any kind of art...it deepens the connection between artist and observer...it also lends the individual the ability to create potency in their relationship/experience of life in a more general sense; to heighten their awareness and perception to the poetics of nature and their surroundings.

Yes! This applies to all forms of art, not just poetry. And learning how to critique fiction will help you learn how to critique and enjoy poetry better, and learning to critique poetry will improve your enjoyment of film.
Critique is critique. Thought is thought. Involvement is involvement.
And we'll be happy to have you in the class! :)
