They will have a chance to make predictions of their own, discuss futuristic books &...
Students will learn about upcoming technologies and will consider how society and daily life may change as they enter the market.
Ever since I was a kid, I've been drawn to everything futuristic from toys, to books, to movies. For better or worse, not much has changed, and I often find myself checking websites such as Futurism.com and The Medical Futurist for updates and information. I do my best to stay up-to-date and have (and continue to) read many popular, science-based futurism sources and books such as Life 3.0, Super Intelligence, The Second Machine Age, and more.
We will generally stay positive, but we will discuss ethics and societal costs (positive and negative) of potential future technologies.
