From Linkingthinking: New perspectives on thinking and learning for sustainability (WWF Scotland, 2005, by Sterling, Maiteny, Irving and Salter): Although there is a strong argument for developing Linkingthinking ideas and skills in education, it is hardly yet recognised in current curricula and policy objectives. The writers, partners and WWF Scotland have developed this package in the belief that Linkingthinking is vital to help people cope with, understand and address the complex issues that increasingly dominate life, and is a perspective and skill that can be learnt and taught. The materials are designed to help develop the thinking skills - flexibility, resourcefulness, creativity, self-reliance and empathy - that citizens and professionals of tomorrow will require.
