The first industrial revolution was important for the inventions of spinning and weaving machines operated by waterpower that was eventually replaced by steam. This helped increase America’s growth. However, the industrial revolution truly changed American society and economy into an industrial state. Industrialization in America involved three important developments. First, transportation was expanded. Second, electricity was effectively harnessed. Third, improvements were made to manufacturing and communication. INTRODUCTION: 1. Ask the question, “What kind of work did Americans do before the Civil War?” (farming, merchants, trades people, etc.) 2. Write the answers down on chart paper for all students to see. 3. Go back to each response and ask the following questions (or others) depending on what the work was. “What tools did people use for this type of work?” “How did they move their goods?” “How did they communicate?” 4. Write answers down next to previous responses. 5. Tell students that new inventions changed life for Americans after the Civil War. They will be researching one particular invention to teach the rest of the class. ACTIVITY ONE 1. Distribute Poster Directions and go over with students clarifying any questions. 2. Give each group the following: • chart paper • markers • “Invention Information Packet” • “Invention Information” Graphic Organizer 3. Give groups time to work. Let them know when they have 5 minutes left. ACTIVITY TWO 1. Each group presents their poster following the presentation guidelines. 2. Participants fill in their graphic organizers during presentations. ACTIVITY THREE 1. Have a whole class discussion on the cause and effects of the industrial period. 2. Ask students to compare this time period to modern inventions and their cause and effect. ASSESSMENT: Have students write a summary explaining the cause and effect of one invention from the Industrial Revolution. POSTER DIRECTIONS: Each poster must include: • Name of invention • Inventor, year of invention and any other pertinent information • Purpose of invention • Drawing of invention • Probable cause of invention • Effects of invention • BE CREATIVE! Presentation: • Every group member should present some part of the information. • All poster requirements must be presented to whole class. • At the end of the presentation ask for questions from the audience.

INVENTION INFORMATION GRAPHIC ORGANIZER NAME OF INVENTION INVENTOR AND PURPOSE OF PROBABLE CAUSE EFFECTS OF YEAR INVENTED INVENTION OF INVENTION INVENTION INVENTION INFORMATION GRAPHIC ORGANIZER The History of Steamboats JOHN FITCH AND ROBERT FULTON John Fitch - Design Sketch ca. 1787 In 1769, the Scotsman James Watt patented an improved version of the steam engine that ushered in the Industrial Revolution. The idea of using steam power to propel boats occurred to inventors soon after the potential of Watt's new engine became known. The era of the steamboat began in America in 1787 when John Fitch (1743-1798) made the first successful trial of a forty-five-foot steamboat on the Delaware River on August 22, 1787, in the presence of members of the Constitutional Convention. Fitch later built a larger vessel that carried passengers and freight between Philadelphia and Burlington, New Jersey. John Fitch was granted his first United States patent for a steamboat on August 26, 1791. However, he was granted his patent only after a battle with James Rumsey over claims to the same invention.

  • Jefferson and Franklin
    Jefferson and Franklin ITH the exception of Washington and Lincoln, no two men in American history have had more books written about W them or have been more widely discussed than Jefferson and Franklin. This is particularly true of Jefferson, who seems to have succeeded in having not only bitter critics but also admiring friends. In any event, anything that can be contributed to the under- standing of their lives is important; if, however, something is dis- covered that affects them both, it has a twofold significance. It is for this reason that I wish to direct attention to a paragraph in Jefferson's "Anas." As may not be generally understood, the "Anas" were simply notes written by Jefferson contemporaneously with the events de- scribed and revised eighteen years later. For this unfortunate name, the simpler title "Jeffersoniana" might well have been substituted. Curiously enough there is nothing in Jefferson's life which has been more severely criticized than these "Anas." Morse, a great admirer of Jefferson, takes occasion to say: "Most unfortunately for his own good fame, Jefferson allowed himself to be drawn by this feud into the preparation of the famous 'Anas/ His friends have hardly dared to undertake a defense of those terrible records."1 James Truslow Adams, discussing the same subject, remarks that the "Anas" are "unreliable as historical evidence."2 Another biographer, Curtis, states that these notes "will always be a cloud upon his integrity of purpose; and, as is always the case, his spitefulness toward them injured him more than it injured Hamilton or Washington."3 I am not at all in accord with these conclusions.

  • Elizabeth Drinker: Quaker Values and Federalist Support in the 1790S
    Elizabeth Drinker: Quaker Values and Federalist Support in the 1790s Susan Branson At the conclusion of peace between the United States and Britain in 1783, Elizabeth Drinker made a prediction for the succeeding years: "this day was printed the King's speech to both Houses of Parliment Decr. 5"' - bespeaking peace, and Independence; I fear they will not long agreed togeather with us."' Her prediction held true throughout the following decade and beyond. During the 1790s Drinker repeatedly expressed her desire for a "well-regulated government," with leaders who would bring peace and order to society. She was frequently disap- pointed.2 Elizabeth Drinker was a woman deeply concerned about, and intimately involved with, the politics of her time. No significant event passed without comment in her diary. Through a combination of her observation, conversation, and reading, we can piece together the polit- ical ideology of this extraordinary woman. With the experiences of the Revolution fresh in her consciousness, Drinker articulated a Federalist interpretation of government and the construction of a civil society. What Drinker sought, but never experienced, was a peaceful, well- regulated society devoid of contention, factions, and crowd actions. Instead, what she and other Americans witnessed in the 1790s was a period of turbulence both at home and abroad. They lived under a dem- ocratic government in its infancy, still undergoing change and develop- ment. This process was rarely a quiet one. And in Philadelphia, the cap- ital city, the political contentiousness between Federalists and Democratic Republicans generated a great deal of public activity, accompanied in many instances by noise and occasional violence.

  • No. 1, April 1996
    Vol. 24:1 ISSN 0160-8460 April 1996 First Federal Congress Project Completes Debates Series for the First House of Representatives by Charlene Bangs Bickford Director, First Federal Congress Project Yesterday the doors of the House of Representatives were thrown open for the admission of the Citizens. New-York Daily Gazette, 9 April 1789 Behind the above statement and the historic event it heralded lay more than a century and a half of constitutional struggle in Great Britain, the colonies, and the states of the public’s access to legislative debate and the freedom of the press to report it. But the institutions that had resulted from the drawing together of the colonies and states—the Continental Congresses, the Confederation Congress, and the Federal Convention—all had met in secret. Thus, the opening of the House doors represented a seemingly radical change. That change appears to have been a natural result of the fact that the Federal Convention conceived the House of Representatives as an innovation—a national body representative of the people. Members of that body held a personal responsibility to the people of their districts (Fig. 1). Perhaps more than any other factor, this personal accountability made opening the House doors during debate inevitable. Thus the public gained access to the debates of what was identified by contemporaries as a virtual second sitting of the Federal Convention, because of its fleshing out of the structure provided by the Constitution, passage of the Bill of Rights, and continual interpretation of the new Constitution’s meaning. Newspaper publishers and other entrepreneurs, encouraged by the intense public interest that had been demonstrated during the ratification debates, seized the opportunity to inform the Fig.
