History of Transportation Mode
Fixed wheels were invented in 3500 BC, allowing for early wheeled vehicles like carts and chariots. River boats and horse-drawn transportation developed over the following millennia. In the 18th and 19th centuries, major transportation innovations emerged like the steamboat, steam locomotive, automobile, airplane, and technologies that improved travel by land, sea, and air. Transportation management has evolved greatly from early wheeled vehicles to modern modes like jets, rockets, and bullet trains.
California by starr
The document discusses the history of California from the Gold Rush era to modern times across multiple chapters. It describes how service workers were in high demand during the Gold Rush, but union organizers faced violence in the early 20th century from police and vigilantes. Later, Cesar Chavez peacefully advocated for fair treatment of agricultural workers. The document also mentions inventions and innovations in California like improved water turbines, early airplane flights, and the rise of Silicon Valley.
Transportation revolution
The document discusses the Transportation Revolution in the United States between 1789-1860, including developments in roads like the National Road, canals like the Erie Canal, and railroads. It summarizes that roads, canals, and railroads helped connect areas of the country, making transportation faster and trade more feasible. This is seen as fueling economic growth and development across the young nation.
The Underground Railroad
The document discusses the Underground Railroad, which was a secret network that helped fugitive slaves escape from the southern United States to Canada between 1800-1865. It operated through various methods of transportation and routes, including water routes, walking trails, and railways, to help slaves evade capture by slave owners and reach the safety of Canada, where slavery had been abolished. Those who assisted the escaping slaves faced risks, as the Fugitive Slave Law required all Americans to return escaped slaves to their owners.
RARE ICONIC PHOTOS
The document provides a collection of photos from various points in history between 1880 and 1977, showing notable events, inventions, landmarks, and cultural moments. Some of the photos show the construction of iconic structures like the Eiffel Tower and Flatiron Building, the arrival of the Statue of Liberty, early cars and flights, life before modern conveniences, major historical events like the Titanic and assassination of JFK, cultural phenomena like Woodstock and Star Wars, and snapshots of everyday life from eras past. The photos provide a glimpse into how the world looked at different points in time over the past century.
The underground railroad
The document provides information about the Underground Railroad and key figures that helped slaves escape to freedom. It discusses how the Underground Railroad was a network of people, mostly black but some white, who helped slaves travel northward at night to the next safe house using natural landmarks to guide their way. Important conductors included Harriet Tubman who made 19 trips rescuing over 300 slaves, and Henry "Box" Brown who famously shipped himself in a box to freedom. Black History Month originated from Negro History Week founded by Carter G. Woodson in 1926 to educate people about black history and contributions.
History of transportation
Early humans walked and dragged items, developing worn paths that became early roads. The development of the wheel led to wheeled vehicles and the first roads made of packed materials in Mesopotamia around 3500 BC. Romans later built stone-surfaced roads with mortar around 300 BC. Steam power was applied to transportation starting in the late 18th century, leading to road and water vehicles and railroads in the early 19th century. The modern highway system and commercial air travel developed in the mid-20th century.

Horse racing originated in Central Asia over 4,500 years ago when nomadic tribes first domesticated horses. It died out in early America but was revived in the 1920s as track operators lobbied legislators, arguing it could generate substantial profits for states. A key figure was Colonel Matt J. Winn, who ended an anti-gambling movement in Kentucky, paving the way for states like Kentucky and Maryland to legalize horse racing and gambling in 1906 and 1920 respectively. More states followed suit during the Depression to gain revenue, such as California receiving $3 million.

HISTORY OF TRANSPORT
Early humans walked or dragged items, developing worn paths. The development of the wheel led to wheeled vehicles like sleds and the first roads made of packed materials. Over thousands of years, transportation technologies advanced with domesticated animals, sails, wheeled vehicles, stone-surfaced roads, and harnessing and iron horseshoes. Major developments included the first steam road vehicle and steamboat in the late 18th century, macadam roads in the early 19th century, and the automobile in the late 19th century which led to the modern highway system. Transportation has since expanded to flight, space travel, and beyond.
Hw#24 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered by James Marshall at Sutter's Mill near Sacramento. Word of the discovery quickly spread, with some 80,000 prospectors, called "forty-niners", traveling to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The influx of miners and settlers transformed California, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some miners succeeded in finding gold, others faced harsh conditions and discrimination, especially Chinese immigrants. The Gold Rush spurred major economic and population growth in California and the western United States.

Some of the earliest developments include a windmill-driven war wagon designed by Guido da Vigevano in 1335 and a clockwork-driven tricycle designed by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1478. Other important milestones mentioned include Nicholas Cugnot's steam-powered vehicle in 1769, widely considered the first automobile; Richard Trevithick's steam locomotive demonstration in 1801; and Karl Benz's gasoline-powered automobile, the Benz Patent-Motorwagen, in 1886, regarded as the first practical automobile. The timeline shows the progression from early human-powered vehicles to early steam-powered
The Oregon Trail (right one)
My presentation is about the perils that the pioneers faced along the Oregon Trail. Among the many hardships they endured, this presentation covers some of the most dangerous ones; such as, river crossings, food shortages, diseases and sicknesses, accidents, facing the weather, and indian attacks. I chose this topic because I wanted to educate my audience about the hardships that the pioneers faced. Seeing what they went through really makes a person be thankful for everything that they have.
19th Century Transport & Communication
Transport and communication saw revolutionary changes in the 19th century. Inland waterways like canals were expanded, and rail networks were built across Europe and America. Shipping transitioned from sail to steam power. Road transport improved with new materials and horse-drawn vehicles. By century's end, the first motor vehicles and airplanes emerged. Telegraph systems created nearly instant communication by the 1850s, and telephones became widespread later in the century. These innovations shrank distances, drove economic growth, and integrated once-isolated markets and communities.
England against....
Life in England 500 years ago was impacted by disease, entertainment options, and methods of travel and education. Major plagues like the Black Death devastated the population. Theater was a form of entertainment, though women were excluded from performing and theaters were later closed by Puritans. Most people traveled on foot along old Roman roads, facing dangers like bandits, tolls, and accidents. Education was limited, with some children attending petty or grammar schools and wealthy students studying at Oxford or Cambridge.
Richard Branson
Richard Branson dropped out of high school and started a youth culture magazine called Student. He then launched Virgin Records which became one of the top 6 record companies in the world. Branson's true passion was in the airline industry, and he created Virgin Atlantic Airways in 1984. Today, Branson owns over 200 Virgin companies worldwide generating over $17 billion in annual revenue, making him one of the richest entrepreneurs in the world.
Transport webquest
The document discusses various methods of transport, including submarines, ships, rockets, helicopters, vans, and bikes. It provides brief histories and descriptions of each mode, noting that submarines were first built in 1620, ships date back 10,000 years and were used for fishing and hunting, rockets were developed after the discovery of gunpowder and are now used to travel in space, helicopters provide air travel with a specific rotorcraft design and are used for military and police purposes, vans transport goods and people with a car-like design but more interior space, and bikes have two wheels attached to a frame and have been used for transportation since the 15th century.
History Notes on the Famine
The document summarizes the Great Famine that occurred in Ireland from 1845 to 1849. It describes how the famine began when a potato blight destroyed most of Ireland's potato crop, which millions depended on for food. As people began to starve, soup kitchens and workhouses were set up, but many still died of starvation or famine-related diseases. Over a million people emigrated, often on overcrowded "coffin ships" where up to 20% died during the voyage. By 1847, the worst year, over 3 million Irish were being fed in soup kitchens.
Powerpoint (1990 bueno)
The 1990s fashion emphasized individuality and variety over specific trends. Hairstyles included short hair in brown or blond for girls, and zig zags or tupe cuts for some guys inspired by rappers. The blockbuster films Independence Day and Die Hard 2 were released, involving alien invasions and Bruce Willis' character John McClane. Grunge band Nirvana and rock group Nickelback formed in the late 80s/early 90s. Dolly the sheep was the first mammal cloned from an adult cell in 1996. The Leaning Tower of Pisa began tilting upon construction and safety measures were taken in 1990.
History Notes - The Plantations
The document summarizes the four major Plantations that took place in Ireland between the 16th and 17th centuries as English attempts to extend control over Ireland by confiscating land from Irish owners. Each Plantation was in response to an Irish revolt and involved dividing and granting the confiscated land to English and Scottish settlers to live and farm on the land. However, the Plantations often failed to achieve their goals as the settlers struggled without enough laborers and faced ongoing attacks from displaced Irish residents, with mixed success in establishing English control and society in Ireland over time.

Self-, peer-, and instructor-assessment from Bloom’s perspective
- The study examined differences between self, peer, and instructor assessments of students' work using Bloom's taxonomy.
- Students completed tasks involving different cognitive levels from Bloom's taxonomy and then assessed their own and peers' work. Instructors also assessed the work.
- Results found that at the knowledge level, self and peer assessments converged more with instructors' scores compared to comprehension level tasks, where peer assessments diverged more from self and instructor scores.
- The results suggest Bloom's taxonomy may help explain differences between assessment methods by accounting for cognitive demand, and that assessment design should consider cognitive level.
