  The Industrial Revolution was a period of shift in Britain, continental Europe, and the USA from around 1760 till at some point between 1820 and 1840, when new production innovations were introduced. The shift from hand to device production, new chemical and iron production strategies, increased use of steam and waterpower, the development of device tools, and the rise of the mechanized factory system were all part of this change. The Industrial Revolution also introduced a period of remarkable population growth. 
  In regard to work, output value, and capital invested, fabrics were the most essential market throughout the Industrial Revolution. Textiles were also amongst the first markets to adopt modern production methods. 
  The Industrial Revolution started in the U.K., and a lot of the scientific and architectural developments were developed there. 
  Through the activities of the East India Company, Britain was the world's leading industrial country by the mid-18th century, controlling a worldwide trading empire with groups in the USA and Canada and the Caribbean, and significant army and political hegemony on the Indian subcontinent, especially with the proto-industrialized Mughal Bengal. 
  One of the essential reasons for the Industrial Revolution was the development of trade and the rise of business. 
  Let’s explore in which area the revolution made all its changes, and what consequences this had for families, child labor, the economy, farmers, and politics.

  Never Stop Asking - Teaching...

  Students and teachers alike face a dilemma: Why think deeply when we can just take a shortcut by googling something? Why read an article when we can learn from a social media headline? If, as educators, we want to encourage our students to value thoughtfulness and to embrace the effort it takes to reach deep understandings, we must model that behavior ourselves. In Never Stop Asking, author Dr. Nathan Lang-Raad shows K-12 teachers how human brains like to take mental shortcuts, known as heuristics, that allow the brain to save energy and perform more efficiently. These heuristics, however, can lead to illogical thinking, cognitive biases, and fallacies that can hinder critical thinking. 
   
   
   
  With this teacher's must-have guide, you'll: learn about common psychological shortcuts and biases that hinder students and teachers alike; discover the logic and the science behind critical thinking and why it leads to better outcomes; gain strategies to bring critical thinking into the classroom and help students build patience, discipline, and skill; and acknowledge and embrace the digital age in your teaching—without falling victim to its downsides. 
   
   
   
  This is an engaging and important book for K-12 teachers and instructional coaches. Teacher training programs can also be enhanced by the practical wisdom and easy-to-implement strategies included.
