　　The students we have in schools today will spend most of their future in the twenty-first century. Teachers just beginning their careers now will train students who will spend part of their lives in the twenty-second century. How well are we preparing these students for the world of tomorrow?

　　Much of our present educational system is geared (调整) to education about the past and the present, ignoring the rapid social and technological changes that have been occurring and will continue to occur at an ever-accelerating (加速) rate. Because our children are being oriented basically to the past and the present by our educational system, the debilitating (使衰弱) phenomenon of “future shock” is now an everyday occurrence (事件) for massive numbers of people. For all the rhetoric (花言巧语) about education offering the potential (潜能) for a better future, our school are not incorporating (合并) curricula (课程) to prepare a child or youth for an emerging (显现) new society.

　　For example, we are now in the post-industrial era, an era giving rise to an “information economy” based on the production, distribution, and consumption of knowledge. This emerging economy, called the “knowledge industry”, already accounts for 50 percent of our Gross National Product and includes education of all kinds, government, health, research and development, media, communications, computers, and conferences and conventions (惯例). It is forecast that, by the end of this century, less than 20 percent of the employed in this country will be engaged in the production of goods—a dramatic shift from our current makeup.

　　Thinking educators perceive (认识到) that this change calls for more education about career options. (可供选择的事物) Students must be prepared for positions in the knowledge industry. This is but one of the challenging trends of our time.

　　The futures program equips students with the necessary to function successfully tomorrow's world. Futures courses elicit (引出) purposeful consideration of the future. Heavy emphasis is placed on coping and forecasting techniques and on exploring alternatives (可供选择的办法)—respectable academic (学术的) procedures. (程序)
