BELL-RINGER • Begin working on Bracket 11. • Look at each pair of inventions. You need to decide which invention has had the most revolutionary impact on human life. That invention “wins” and moves on. Ultimately, you will need to reveal which invention out of all 64 has had the greatest impact. Briefly describe that impact below the chart or on the back. • Pay attention to the timer.
EVERYONE CONSUMES. I meant no harm. I most truly did not. But I had to grow bigger. So bigger I got. I biggered my factory. I biggered my roads. I biggered my wagons. I biggered my loads of the Thneeds I shipped out. I was shipping them forth to the South! To the East! To the West! To the North! I went right on biggering… selling more Thneeds. And I biggered my money, which everyone needs. - Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
You MUST know these terms: • Industrialization • Raw materials • Manufacturing • Cottage industry • Mechanization • Mass production • Urbanization • Pollution • Exploitation
Objectives • Analyzethe causes of the Industrial Revolution. Why did it begin in England? • Identify significant innovations (inventions and new practices). How did the production of specific goods change? • Evaluate the merits of the Revolution. What were the positive consequences of industrialization? What were the negative consequences?
CAUSESof the Ind. Rev. Why England???
Innovations of theIndustrial Revolution Inventions and new practices
Enclosure Movement • Description • Rich landowners combined small “communal” (shared) fields to make larger farms • Positive Impact • Larger farms → More food • Negative Impact • Poor farmers were forced to leave their small fields; they went to the cities to look for jobs.
Urbanization • Description • The movement of people from rural areas (countrysides) to urban areas (cities) • Positive Impact • Cities became more productive with large labor forces willing to work. • Negative Impacts • Overcrowding; poor slum neighborhoods; disease, health problems; pollution
Textile industry; spinning machines • Description • Spinning frame (SF) machines improve cloth production (clothing, fabrics) • SF invented by Richard Arkwright
Cotton Gin • Description • Invented by Eli Whitney • Picked seeds out of raw cotton • (Seedless cotton was sent to textile factories to be spun into cloth.)
Industrial Factories • Description • Large, urban buildings; held industrial machines • Produced more goods than cottage industry • Employed lots of workers, including children • Factory workers became the new middle class • Often unsafe, unhealthy working conditions
Steam Engine • Description • Invented by James Watt • Used steam energy to run industrial machines • More powerful than water energy • Required coal for fuel
Locomotive • Description • Trains were powered by steam engines • Could carry heavy loads of goods • Transported goods faster than boats • Railroads improved transportation infrastructure
Steamship • Description • Invented by Robert Fulton • Powered by steam engines • Could travel through any weather • (Did not depend on wind like early sailing ships) • Able to move goods across oceans (globalization)
Assembly Line • Description • Invention that moved a product along a factory belt from worker to worker • Workers specialized in very simple skills • Put together one part of the car, not the entire car • More goods could be made very quickly
Mass Production • Description • Make large amounts of the same product • Assembly line → Mass production • Ford Motor Company • Before assembly line: It took hours to produce a car • After assembly line: It took 90 seconds to make a car
Coal-mining • Description • Coal-mining industry developed in order to supply steam engine factories with fuel • Coal powered the Industrial Revolution • Mining employed thousands of workers • Mining: Dangerous job with health risks • Burning coal… LOTS of pollution
Bessemer Process • Description • Process used to develop steel • Steel = strong metal; improves manufacturing • Steel industry improved the railroad systems
Electricity • Description • Electric lightbulb invented by Thomas Edison • Electricity replaced large factory steam engines • Light lengthens the workday (can work at night) • Electricity did not require a water source (factories did not have to be near rivers anymore)
Telecommunication • Description • Telegraph invented by Samuel Morse • Telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell • Improved communication infrastruction • Caused more globalization
