According to futurists, although people go to offices to work now, ………

A new millennium is dawning and with it the powerful feeling that a new era has begun. What will work be like in this new era? How about education? Here's what futurists predict. Futurist see a breakdown in the division between home and office. In the 21st century, more and more people will be telecommuting ¬ working at home with telephones, faxes and computers. They'll be spending much less time in offices. This development will allow people to spend more time with their families as well as cut down on pollution from automobiles. On education, futurists say that virtual-reality technology will transform instruction. On a typical school day, a geography class will be experiencing life in a rainforest, while the history class next door shudders at the sights, sounds, and smells of the battle of Waterloo.
