Abstract	Beginning in May 1987, a committee formed by the Connecticut Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development met regularly for over a year to identify and analyze the important trends in U.S. society that are projected to occur by the start of the 21st century. From the analysis, the committee selected and organized 10 trends that the members thought would most affect education in Connecticut and the nation; the trends are presented in this document. For each trend, a background summary and projections for its future are included. Additionally, the impact that each may have on the school curriculum and the curriculum delivery are discussed. Among the predicted trends are the following: (1) technology will become even more powerful, convenient, and complex; (2) the world will continue to become more globally interdependent; (3) U.S. society will continue to demand an even more convenient lifestyle, expecting all institutions to deliver their services with ease and speed; (4) alternatives to public education will continue to grow in popularity and to gain public support; and (5) a shortage of qualified teachers and administrators will necessitate alternative approaches to training, recruiting, and certifying professional educators. Additional sources for trend followup are provided. (KM)
