Working+it+out+Nineteenth+century+technology

=Technological development between 1890 and 1910.=

In our daily lives, 20th century technological advances surround us. Whether we are taking a hot shower, using the refrigerator, driving a car or turning on a light to read a book, our environment is shaped by hundreds inventions that make our lives more comfortable, automatic, productive and easier. The goal of this lesson plan is for students to understand how dependent we have become in the technical world and what "modern conveniences" really are. Students will identify the machines (technologies) in their homes and agree to live without them for a 24-hour period. By observation, this lesson will help give students a small glimpse into what life was probably like one hundred years ago and how we benefit from modern culture.

In this work, students will look at the historical value of technology; Modern inventors and inventions; The evolution of technological advances and how inventions have permanently changed our world

 How does technology makes our lives more convenient, efficient, productive, and very different from the 1900s? On this special day, have students keep a paper and pencil journal, use page 2 - journal for students as the model. You will have to make an entry every two hours. · Begin the journal as soon as they wake up and begin each entry with the time they are writing. · Be sure to include o how they are feeling about using modern conveniences today o how you are spending your time o what life must have been like for children your age who lived in 1900 · What technology weren't you able to give up?
 * __Getting knowledge ready: __**

The 19th century lasted from 1801 through 1900. The invention of useable electricity, steel, and petroleum products during the 19th century lead to a second industrial revolution (1865–1900), that featured the growth of railways and steam ships, faster and wider means of communication, and inventions with names we all know today. The 19th century was the age of machine tools - tools that made tools - machines that made parts for other machines, including interchangeable parts. The assembly line was invented during the 19th century, speeding up the factory production of consumer goods. The 19th century gave birth to the professional scientist, the word scientist was first used in 1833 by William Whewell. Inventors began to design practical internal combustion engines.
