Many factors or "wild cards" contribute to forecasting a possible future. Many futurists have
likened these wild cards to the "butterfly effect" of chaos theory. The premise in the butterfly effect
is that a butterfly flapping its wings in Singapore could cause a rippling effect that would
eventually lead to a hurricane in the Caribbean. The premise behind chaos theory is that there
can be order to chaos. The beauty of fractals is based upon this premise. Out of the chaos in
today's world, we have found several trends: Moore's Law, Metcalfe's Law, technology fusion,
and our technologically dependent world economy. We must finally ask where are these trends
leading us and how might they impact education?
