CriticalThinking

**The motivation for this project came when we realized Baldacci’s novel, while compelling, was set seventy years ago. As instructors, we saw an opportunity for students to discover the issues facing the modern inhabitants of the Appalachian Mountains, to bring the past and present together. Instead of giving a series of lectures on the subject, we highlighted (in the broadest sense) a tragically real problem an asked the students to thoroughly research until they found some possible solutions. During the process, students were asked to go back to their groups with any questions that provided an opportunity for the students to find a solution themselves. **
