This book is a result of research into ten technologies currently under development that will directly affect community colleges and universities, most within the next 5-20 years and a few within the next 20-30 years. The research conducted on each of the technologies provides a baseline of current development, and predictions of when they may impact institutions of higher education. These technologies develop in two phases, first, in a linear manner, and second, following up with an exponential velocity. The development of Uber and Airbnb are good examples of the speed of exponential development. Institutions of higher education need to be prepared for the disruptions that the ten technologies discussed will create.

As someone who embraces technology whole-heartedly, I acknowledge the need and challenge of staying informed and keeping pace with the ever-evolving technology of today’s world. With this book, I am able to do just that. By focusing on ten 21st century technologies, this book serves as a well-researched and thoughtfully-compiled foundation for all educators and administrators; it details what to know, what to embrace now, and what to watch and account for in the near future.
