The Birth of the Industrial Revolution in Britain 1707 to 1830   Course Description   Introduction The Industrial Revolution started in Britain in the eighteenth century. A number of factors converged to create the conditions for developments in industry and science. Agricultural improvements created a cadre of wealthy landowners with money to invest. Improved educational opportunities, particularly in Scotland, created a broader set of young people with ideas and ambition. Greater religious freedom allowed individuals of talent to develop businesses. Interest in science and technology blossomed and the birth of the coffee house culture brought people with ideas into the orbit of those with money. But it was not all rosy. The new culture of ideas and experimentation was almost entirely limited to men. A woman’s place was seen to be in the home. At the same time the slave trade flourished providing much of the wealth for investment and, shamefully, Britain was a key facilitator in this odious business – and there were few voices of dissent at the time. And the poor lived short and brutish lives of hard physical work in grim conditions with an inadequate diet and very little healthcare. In this course I am going to take you through the key milestones of the early industrial revolution – in the textile industry, in coal mining and iron production, in civil engineering; in the development of steam power and the birth of the railways.     Course Pre-Requisites There are no course pre-requisites.     What Students will Learn The history of the industrial revolution in Britain from 1707 to 1830 The factors that created the conditions for the industrial revolution Developments in the textile industry in the eighteenth century The development of steam as a source of power The birth of steam locomotion Developments in coal, coke and iron Civil engineering in the eighteenth century Scientific developments in the eighteenth century     Curriculum SS1 The Birth of the Industrial Revolution 6 mins SS2 The Textiles Revolution 13 min SS3 The Birth of the Steam Engine 10 mins SS4 The Age of Steam Locomotion 14 mins SS5 Fuelling the Industrial Revolution 10 mins SS6 The Engineering Revolution 6 mins SS7 The Scientific Revolution 18 mins SS8 Black Lives during the Industrial Revolution 5 mins SS9 The Birth of the Industrial Revolution 2 mins SS10 The Industrial Revolution History Quiz 19 mins   Total time: 1 hour 44 minutes     Additional Resources None     Course Tutor Your tutor is Ross Maynard.
