Exercise: Looking into the Future

Have students make a list of things that they use now, then have them start reducing the list for things they believe will be around in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years, 25 years, 50 years and 100 years. Items could be products, brands, places or characteristics of something (eg, touch screen computers).

To provide a background for this exercise, students could research how long something has lasted before (eg, how long did a brand survive?)
