Exponential Technologies:Higher Education in an Era of Serial
Disruptions provides an introduction to leaders in community
colleges and universities to the near future impact of technologies
that a developing in an exponential manner. Whereas past
technologies grew in a linear pattern, gradually, the technologies
of the twenty-first century develop in what appears initially to be
gradual, almost off to side without much fanfare. However, the
gradual process reaches a certain point when it suddenly, without
warning, increases in speed phenomenally; it appears to come from
nowhere to the surprise of many. Although the technologies first
impact the business community, it rapidly follows up toward the
educational environment. If leaders in higher education are unaware
of the exponential growth of the technologies, the institutions
they lead will be caught unprepared and may find it very difficult,
if not impossible, to catch up. Moore's law, which claims that
computer power doubles every 18 months, is the force behind the
exponential velocity. Leaders and faculty must become aware of the
technologies and learn how to deal with them or the technologies
will deal with the unprepared.
