This document provides an overview of industrial development and technology. It begins with definitions of technology and the industrial revolution. The industrial revolution started in Britain in the 18th century and led to a shift from small-scale hand production to large-scale machine production in factories. This brought economic and population growth but also negative consequences like pollution and poor working conditions. The document then discusses how the industrial revolution impacted society through economic, political, and social changes like urbanization. It also notes both benefits and risks of modern technologies like computers.

3. INTRODUCTION
Technology is a general term for the processes by
which human beings make tools and machines to
make their life easier.
5. THE TERM TECHNOLOGY
The term is derived from the Greek words tekhnē,
which refers to an art or craft, and logia, meaning
an area of study; thus, technology means, literally,
the study, or science, of crafting.
9. However, not all technology has been used for
peaceful purposes; the development of weapons of
ever-increasing destructive power has progressed
throughout history, from clubs to nuclear weapons.
11. BRITAIN AS AN EXAMPLE
Some Statistics
1760: Britain Imports 2.5 million pounds of raw
cotton; mostly processed by hand in cottage system
1787: Britain Imports 22 million pounds of raw
cotton; mostly processed by machines and water
power
1840: Britain Imports 366 million tons; mostly
processed in factories by steam power
12. MORE STATISTICS
1800: Steam engines generating 10,000
horsepower
1850: 500,000 horsepower stationary engines;
790,000 horsepower in mobile engines
14. Industrial – Having to do with industry, business or
manufacturing
Revolution – a huge change or a change in the way
things are done
Industrial Revolution – a change from making
things by hand to making them in factories.
15. MECHANIZATION AND INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
During the first half of the
19th century, the
European manufacturing
process shifted from
small-scale production by
hand at home to large-
scale production by
machine in a factory
setting.
16. INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Industrial Revolution replaced manual labor by
machines that began in Britain in the 18th century
and is still continuing in some parts of the world.
Goods that had traditionally been made in the home
or in small workshops began to be manufactured in
the factory.
The Industrial Revolution led to the growth of cities
as people moved from rural areas into urban
communities in search of

20. POSITIVE & NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF TECHNOLOGY
Positive Effects:
1. Easier life conditions.
2. Freedom of women.
3. Good medicine.
Negative Effects:
1. Moving from countryside
to cities.
2. Pollution.
3. Child and female labor.
21. TECHNOLOGY EFFECT ON SOCIETY
Technology is the basis of a
society, and it affects all
civilizations past, present,
and future.
Technology is like Newton's
third law of motion, "For
every action there is an
opposite reaction.
22. IS TECHNOLOGY HARMFUL TO SOCIETY OR
NOT?
All Technology has a deep
affect on all of us.
Can you give me an
example of the negative
side of technology?
23. TECHNOLOGY HAS MANY BENEFITS BUT AT THE SAME
TIME IT CAN HAVE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES.
Technology affects our society
significantly. For example one
of the most advanced
inventions is the computer.
Computers influence many
aspects of our lives, including:
medicine, communications,
mathematics, entertainment,
business, agriculture, and all
other sciences.
24. WHILE COMPUTERS ARE BENEFICIAL BUT THEY
HAVE NEGATIVE USES TOO.
there are computer
hackers who seek to
destroy all we have
created.
And inappropriate web
sites? Chat rooms?
These can also be
negative
25. THE EFFECT ON ANIMALS
Every year some species of
animal disappear. We never
see them again.
Because of the technology
and industrial development,
every year cities, factories and
pollution eat up more land that
animals need.
26. INTERNET IN INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
Internet helped industrial
development very much.
It made communication
and technological
research easier.
Researchers can
collaborate worldwide by
using internet
27. RESULTS OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
Economic Changes
Political Changes
Social Changes
28. ECONOMIC CHANGES:
Bought many raw materials from foreign
markets
New iron, steam-powered ships, along with other
technological advances, made international trade
(and travel) cheaper, safer, and more efficient
Sought new foreign markets
29. POLITICAL CHANGES:
Government actions to help workers
Legalization of unions
Established minimum wage
Standards for working conditions
Forms of social security
Government actions to help consumers
30. SOCIAL CHANGES:
•Rural-to-urban migrants – people who left the countryside to live in
cities
• A sign of an industrialized nation is that a large proportion of the
population lives and works in urban areas
