Timeline

The boom in productivity began with a few technical devices, including the spinning jenny, spinning mule, and power loom. First human, then water, and finally steam power were applied to operate power looms, carding machines, and other specialized equipment.

What Is Industrialization? Industrialization is the process by which an economy is transformed from a primarily agricultural one to one based on the manufacturing of goods. Individual manual labor is often replaced by mechanized mass production, and craftsmen are replaced by assembly lines.

• 1712 – The first practical steam engine is invented by Thomas Newcomen.
• 1760 – The First Industrial Revolution begins around 1760 in the textile industry in Great Britain.
• 1764 – James Hargreaves invents the spinning jenny allowing a worker to produce multiple spools of thread at the same time.

Advances in Technology allowed goods to be produced cheaply and quickly by machines. Factory conditions became increasingly dangerous and laborers fought for better working conditions. British who invented the water frame, a spinning machine powered by running water. Also built the first steam-powered textile plant.

The Industrial Revolution changed the way people worked by adding machinery and other such technologies to commonplace product and manufacturing practices, ultimately making them more efficient than in the past. This led to a surplus of goods and wealth, encouraging consumerist ideals and culture.

The Industrial Revolution brought rapid urbanization or the movement of people to cities. Changes in farming, soaring population growth, and an ever-increasing demand for workers led masses of people to migrate from farms to cities. Almost overnight, small towns around coal or iron mines mushroomed into cities.

Technology affects the way individuals communicate, learn, and think. It helps society and determines how people interact with each other on a daily basis. It’s made learning more interactive and collaborative, this helps people better engage with the material that they are learning and have trouble with.

It has come up with the most scalable solutions which can impact business across the world. Whether it is clean energy, robotics, quantum computing, synthetic biology, telemedicine, AI, or cloud education and NUI software, it can solve all the biggest problems confronting mankind.

Experts have found that in addition to making our lives more convenient, but there’s a negative side to technology — it can be addicting and it can hurt our communication skills. Extended screen time can result in health ramifications like insomnia, eyestrain, and increased anxiety and depression.
