INTRODUCTION Technology is a general term for the
processes by which human beings make tools and machines to make their life easier.
WALKING VS. CARS
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.
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
Technology is an essential condition of advanced, industrial civilization.
FROM HAND TO TOOLS
Recent technological developments, such as the printing press, telephone and the Internet
.
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.
A BRIEF HISTORYINDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT STARTED WITH SIMPLE TECHNOLOGY, E.G. GERMAN HAND-LOOM WEAVER
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
MORE STATISTICS
1800: Steam engines generating 10,000 horsepower
1850: 500,000 horsepower stationary engines; 790,000 horsepower in mobile engines
THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
The Revolution that changed the world forever
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.
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.
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
INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION Increased demand for goods Investment capital Cheap Labor Inventions

POSITIVE & NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF TECHNOLOGYPositive 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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
INTERNET IN INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT Internet helped
industrial development very much.
It made communication and technological research easier.
Researchers can collaborate worldwide by using internet
RESULTS OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION Economic Changes Political Changes Social Changes
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
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
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
