ABSTRACT
In this book are reports from people who are at the forefront of developing new information technologies for education and have read their visions of the future. The particular viewpoint from which I should like to address these topics is that of the individual learner-the college student. I come to my particular vision of the future-as fallible and conjectural as any attempt to scrutinize the future must be-from a background of 50 years of university teaching, simultaneous with 40 years of research on human think’ ing and using computer programs to simulate human thinking and learning processes and a like number of years of experience in applying new knowledge about people’s thought processes to university education.
