Between 1750 and 1900, Europe and the United States went through
a period of rapid industrialization. This
industrialization was a result of improved technologies that made
production cheaper and faster. In addition to production,
scientists made important discoveries about diseases, genetics, and
chemistry. Humans would never view themselves or their
world in the same way again.
Who were the people in America responsible
for these technological advances and how did they come up with these
new ideas? During this WebQuest, you will uncover the answers to these
questions and develop an understanding of how new ideas can lead to
the development of a whole new society. |
