Wikipedia description:

Floyd Grant Robinson (2 January 1931 – 18 December 2023) was a Canadian teacher, education theorist and curriculum developer. He wrote many works on the topics of stimulating complex thinking and the importance of education across the entire lifespan. Robinson is most notable for his work done while at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) between 1965 and 1991. During his time at OISE the major goal of Robinson's applied research was to foster problem solving, critical thinking and other forms of complex thinking in elementary and secondary school learners and post-graduate students. In retirement his interest broadened to facilitate inter-agency collaboration in support of comprehensively defined human development and empowerment.
