"Like so many educators, I’ve searched a long time for a way to improve critical thinking without sacrificing the content I need to cover. The Critical Thinking Initiative not only integrates easily, it improves my students’ engagement of the course material, and it has changed the writing outcomes entirely. I really can’t recommend it enough."
