The Industrial Age Begins

The late 1800s was a time of invention and advances in technology. These breakthroughs combined with railroad expansion and new   business practices to launch an age of industry. Government policies encouraged growth, and large corporations became an important part of the economy. Meanwhile, poor pay and working conditions led workers to form unions in an attempt to improve their lives.

  1. Technology changes the way people live and work. For example, these breakthroughs combine railroad expansion and new business practices. Government policies encourage growth, and large corporations become an important part of the economy. However, poor pay and working conditions lead workers to form unions in an attempt to improve their lives. - Li Zhi Lin 814

  2. 1. Technology changes the way people live and work by expanding railroads, business practice, government policies, and the corporations in economics. So, as a result of the Industrial Age, people's life become easier and also lead the poor pay and poor working condition worker to form protests to improve more of their standard of living.

    3. It make their life easier by instead of handmade products,they now use machines, which also increase the amount of products made each year. Also due to the Industrial Age, the factories and railroad companies will provide jobs for those who did not have one.(You don"t except railroad and machines that time work and build their self, some are not even possible today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

  3. Technology changes the way people live and work because the inventions during the industrial age helped people a lot.The inventions helped make business and lives more easier. However, some of the invention didn't make inventers wealthy while others were wealthy.

  4. Technology help change the way people live and work by making their lives easier, for example the invention of Turnpike make traveling a lot faster than before. Before Turnpike was invented you'll have to travel days to get from New York to Buffalo but when the Turnpike was invented it reduce the traveling time. Now when you travel from New York to Buffalo, thanks to the Turnpike, you only need a few hours rather than a few days.

  6. As the industrial age began, people's workplace change from farmlands to factories, which helped the development of cities. Machine made products replaced hand made products and had a cheaper prize. New inventions made transportation and communication more convenient. Electricity as a new source of energy
    replaced people's original household supplies.

  8. Technology changed the way people lived and work by boosting the way people live or their value of life increases. For example, the record player gave people entertainment since it plays music to a household. Also technology made working easier. For example, the cotton gin removed the seeds of the cotton without the use of hands. Also it may open up jobs to new people. For example, in the early 1800s there was this early refrigerator called the ice box and some people got the job of delivering ice to a family.

  13. technology helps us in many different ways.It helps increase how fast something is made. However technology made many people lose jobs .The poor would lose jobs because the machines would take their place. This caused poverty. For the people that did still have jobs at factory's would just be using the machines. It would take the joy out doing work ( for soome people) ashar akhtar 814

  14. Technology changed the the way people live and work because it made their lives much easier and they don't need to do handwork. For example, the cotton gin helped to collect cotton much more easier for the slaves to gather cotton since they don't need to use their hands to get the seeds out of the cotton. It has actually helped the South gather cotton much more fast and easier.

  15. In My own opinion, Technology changed how people live and work by increasing the time of speed. People travels faster with rail roads,with short cuts too.Also lately during the 1700-1850 waterwheel are made too, which transform the movement of the wheel and turn it to electricity . Also the cost of the invention or the item that are used by the invention will be much inexpensive . - Jason802

  17. Technology had changed a lot of peoples lives/ made their lives a lot easier. For example, the cotton gin. It helped the people by taking all the seeds out, instead of using their own hands to do it. Probably, took them hours to do it. Also, the Wright brothers-airplane. It made the people travel a lot faster, instead of using trains....IT had also helped a lot of poors because it gave them jobs to do..

  21. technology was to make life easier and the car was created to travel to far distances and the telegraph was to message those that were far away from u all of this things were created for some reason and it was to make life easier and also so the inventors could make money and the light bulb was created to make light and thats how it makes everything easy but for the workers its hard because they dont pay them what they are supposed to pay them so the inventors get rich and the workers stay the same

  22. Anis 802- i believe technology is essential in the every day lives of the people in the past. To begin with cars helped carry heavy materials for construction. this will move the process of constructing buildings faster. moreover, the new transportation is also important for transportating people to their work. also the people who drive or conduct the machine will create more jobs so people can work.

    The Industrial Revolution changed the way people live and work because technology makes life easier. If there is more factories and machines people can have better life. Also, machines makes life easier. For example, Sewing machine helps to make clothes and cotton gin made easier to pick up the seeds.

    The technology change the way people live and work is they made work easier. For example : When people dont have car, they need to across a very far road to meet someone or go somewhere. a lot of students need walk 1 hour or more time to get to the school.
    When we dont have computer, we need find the information on the Library, and copy the data by hand. Now we have car and computer,we can drive the car go everywhere we want, we can ask question and find the information on the computer and it is very fast. But the problem is : a lot of people become lazy, and a lot of people lose the job.

  37. Technology changed peoples lives in many ways.

    Technology changed the way people lived and worked both positively and negatively. Technology brought machines that could do the work for people and getting to work was much easier because of advancements in transportation. Communication was easier because telephone made getting in contact with people much faster and news could be broadcasted throughout the whole world through television. All of these advancements also brought negative effects because it made people lazier and more dependent on technology.

  41. Technology helped change everyone's lives. One example of a invention that happened in the Industrialization was the Cotton Gin. The Cotton Gin had a huge impact in everyone. It made 2 times more than the usual amount of cotton. The Cotton Gin separated seeds from the cotton, which made easy money. But, children had to work using the machines as well as adults. They get less money and was starved. The working conditions were really bad. Kids were stuck in the building with the machines, with no windows opened which made them suffer.
