 » McREL: Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning, delivering research and practical guidance to educators

We make decisions every day based on our perceptions of what will happen tomorrow, next month, or years from now — and our decisions are made stronger by better imagining the possibilities of the future. McREL can help you learn about factors that will affect education in the future and what actions you can take now to survive and thrive decades from now.

         Future of Education Web site
McREL's new "Future of Education" Web site offers numerous resources --- including free publications, our "trend tracker catalog," and links to useful resources --- to help educators anticipate changes over the horizon for their schools and students.
