1. The Industrial Revolution in Great Britain & America

2. 1. Industrial Revolution
A change from using HUMAN
& ANIMAL power to
MACHINE power.
100 years

3. 2. THREE causes of the INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION-
-Agricultural Revolution
-Population Explosion
-Energy Revolution A P E

4. #2 Agricultural Revolution C H A N G E S I N F A R M I N G
Dikes
Fertilizer
New Crops
Crop Rotation
Enclosure
Seed Drill (Jethro Tull)
More
Food =
More Food = More People

5. #2 POPULATION INCREASE
More people available to work in the factories and the more people that exist, the more DEMAND for goods More PEOPLE WANT More STUFF

6. #2 Energy Revolution
-Machines made out of IRON ore. -COAL makes the machine run. -Coal is used to fuel the STEAM ENGINE…(James Watt)

7. 3. 4 REASONS the INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION began in GREAT BRITAIN
1. GB had a lot of NATURAL RESOURCES available.
(ports, rivers, coal, & iron)
GB had a large population.
* Factory Workers
* Created a DEMAND FOR GOODS.
3. GB Capital / $$ to invest in business or new inventions.
4. GB had a stable government. No wars on their soil.

8. TOO SLOW……Could not keep
4. Putting Out System
TEXTILES = FABRIC or CLOTH
People took part in the process of creating
TEXTILES in their own homes.
TOO SLOW……Could not keep Up
With DEMAND

9. 5. Textile Inventions - Spinning Jenny Faster - Water Frame Faster
New inventions created to keep up with the DEMAND for goods FASTER
Made textiles faster.
- Spinning Jenny Faster
- Water Frame Faster
- Spinning Mule Faster
- Cotton Gin Faster

10. 6. Steam Engine This device powers MACHINES.
Improved upon by JAMES WATT.
Made out of IRON & fueled with
COAL ENGINE ENGINE ENGINE

11. Tenements = Multistory Apartments
7. Urbanization
The rapid movement of
PEOPLE to the CITIES.
(Looking for JOBS)
Tenements = Multistory Apartments

12. BARGAIN NEGOTIATE 8. Labor Union A group who fights for
worker’s rights.
BARGAIN
NEGOTIATE

13. 9. Positive Aspects of the Industrial Revolution
New Jobs
Education
Modern Inventions
Modern Buildings
Middle Class
More Goods
Transportation Faster
New Sources of Energy
MIDDLE
CLASS
EMERGES

14. 10. Negative Aspects of the Industrial Revolution
Working Conditions and Wages
Child Labor
Depletion of Natural Resources
Pollution
Lose Jobs to Machines
Urbanization

15. 11. Bessemer Process Henry Bessemer invented a way to make
STEEL from IRON
Steel is
stronger…..stronger…..stronger
IRON = STEEL

16. 12. New Inventions
Louis Pasteur – came up with the GERM THEORY.
Pasteurizing of milk (killed disease carrying microbes found in milk/Vaccine against rabies
-Alfred Nobel/ - Invented dynamite for use in
construction.
-Thomas Edison – An American inventor who developed the electric light bulb.

17. 13. New Methods of Production
Interchangeable Parts – Machine parts that are mass produced and identical as opposed to being hand-made “One of a kind.”
Assembly Line- A manufacturing system in which a product is completed step-by-step by different workers.
- Made production FASTER & CHEAPER
