The industrial revolution made a myriad of products affordable for everyone, but at a cost in terms of the workers, including children being used as labor. Excellent insights are given and it provides a good framework of how unions were started to fight the rich factory owners in the hopes of getting better working conditions. (03:31)

This video is accompanied by text. "In the final decades of the nineteenth century, the United States experienced an industrial transformation. Over the course of approximately 30 years, America became an industrial and agricultural giant and the world’s greatest economic power. By 1894, the U.S. ranked first among the manufacturing nations of the world. Several factors contributed to this second American Industrial Revolution and the birth of modern America. An abundance of natural resources were discovered and exploited, creating new industries as well as opportunities for established industries to grow..."

John Green wraps up Revolutions Month with what is arguably the most revolutionary of modern revolutions, the Industrial Revolution. While very few leaders were beheaded in the course of this one, it changed the lives of more people more dramatically than any of the political revolutions we've discussed. So, why did the Industrial Revolution happen around 1750 in the United Kingdom? Coal. Easily accessible coal, it turns out. All this, plus you'll finally learn the difference between James Watt and Thomas Newcomen, and will never again be caught telling people that your blender has a 900 Newcomen motor. (11:05)

By the late 1700s, the coal powered steam engine was widely used in English factories. Its operation, based on valve-piston action, was a great advancement for its time, further increasing industrial productivity. This video does a good job of showing how the steam engine works and its importance in the Industrial Revolution. Best used as part of a study on technology and/or with a drawing of a steam engine as the video is short.

This is thirteen-minute video in which John Green teaches you about railroads, and some of the ways they changed the world, and how they were a sort of microcosm for the Industrial Revolution as a whole. Prior to the invention of steam powered railroads, pretty much all locomotion had been muscle-powered. You either walked where you wanted to go, or rode on an animal to get where you were going. The railroad changed human perception of time and space, making long distance travel much faster and easier. Railroads also changed habits, including increasing reading. People needed some sort of distraction to ensure they didn't have to talk to other people on the train. Like any new technology, railroads also scared people. All kinds of fears surrounded rail travel, but over time, people got over them. As the quality of boiler manufacturing improved, the trains exploded less often, and that made people feel safer.

A review of the Industrial Revolution starting with Samuel Slater and the importance of the assembly line are shown. The dangers of the period in working in poor conditions and the resulting strikes against owners is discussed. Clearly shows the difference between the rich and poor and the importance of the Progressive Era in ending some of the problems. A good review, but very few people or laws are mentioned. At best a general review.

Before the Industrial Revolution everything was produced by hand. Beginning in the 19th century, advances in manufacturing revolutionize the American way of life. A man named Samuel Slater memorized the plans for factories and brought them over to America. This started up the Industrial Revolution in America. Americans began moving into cities to work in factories. Assembly lines started appearing in factories which led to unskilled workers like women and children working. (2:31)

The invention of the steam machine and innovations related to it in the textile industry really got the Industrial Revolution going. First they changed the way people work in their field and then they changed the organization of labor itself. How did the invention of the steam engine improve the factory system and what exactly did James Watt have to do with it all? (09:18)

Presenter Mark Williams explores the birthplace of Britain's canal network inside of a coal mine on the outskirts of Manchester. The owner of the mine, the Duke of Bridgewater, installed a steam engine to pump water out of the mine and into a canal which in turn carried coal to Manchester, thereby kickstarting the Industrial Revolution.
