Injection Wells in Rural Ohio: A School Community Study

Abstract Details

2021, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Ohio University, Curriculum and Instruction (Education).
This study explored how injection wells, as a local-level controversial issue, emerged within a rural Ohio school community. Instrumental case study and narrative inquiry methodologies informed the study, with an emphasis on rurality. The findings, presented in a creative nonfiction story genre amplifying the voice of rural Ohioans, illustrate the impacts of mineral-extraction industries and undesirable land uses on a rural school community characterized by hardship as well as fortitude, commitment, and interdependency.
