内容説明

"I would like to see this book become required reading for every teacher or administrator before they break for the summer. Its simplified descriptions make it easily understood by non-technical people. I will make sure that all of my classes read it!" -Shirley Campbell Director, Computer and Curriculum Inquiry Center University of Pittsburgh, PA "McCain and Jukes build a case that the Information Age has not yet peaked and awaken us to the challenge of the dramatic technological changes we will surely see within our life time." -Frank Buck, Principal, Graham School Talladega, AL "Windows on the Future summarizes key developments and concepts making them readily understandable. Though I've been a member of the World Future Society and an avid reader of books for over 30 years, I am not aware of any other publication like this for practicing educators. This would be very valuable for professional development study groups." -Karen L. Tichy, Associate Superintendent for Instruction Catholic Education Office St. Louis, MO Get prepared to help your students move into the technological future! The world as we knew it ten years ago no longer exists. Ten years from now, today's world will have recreated itself many times over.

Windows on the Future was designed to help the educator cope with changes created by technology and embrace a new mindset necessary to access the burgeoning technological advances.
