Hey everyone! Today we learned about the transition from cottage industry production to factory production. We talked about how a revolution in agriculture (new methods of agriculture and new inventions) ultimately led to a boom in population and a need for specific goods (such as textiles). To meet that demand, new inventions were created to increase the quanitity of good (sparking the Industrial Revolution).
We talked about how new inventions during these revolutions (inventions in agriculture, industry, and transportation) changed society. Your assignment is to research new inventions during the 20th century (1900-1999) and write a couple short paragraphs on which inventions were the most important to our society today and explain why. You must have 3 inventions in each of the following categories: agriculture, industry, and transportation.
Please remember to bring your comparison papers on the French Revolution and the current crisis in the Middle East. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Have a great day!
