WHP 1200 | Unit 5 Overview | World History Project

It’s hard to get your head around a concept as all-encompassing as industrialization. It changed almost every aspect of how humans live, and, for better or for worse, it made the world we live in right now. Luckily, Kim and Colby are here to walk us through the overview video for Unit 5: Industrialization from 1750 to 1914. Alert students may have noticed those are the same years covered in the unit on revolutions that we just finished. Well, that “long nineteenth century” had a lot going on, especially when it came to the massive increase in production and distribution. So, we produced and distributed two units about it!
