Raw Materials in the Industrial Revolution Presentation (AS Level CIE)

Raw Materials in the Industrial Revolution Presentation (AS Level CIE)

A simple presentation that starts with some retrieval practice on the previous topic (Why was there a rapid growth of industrialisation after 1780?) and moves onto basic information about iron and coal’s role in the industrial revolution.

Two tasks at the end - first task is for students in pairs to create a visual analogy about the role of these raw materials using these details, a textbook and some online detective work!

The second task (which can be set for HW) is for students to create a visual presentation ‘essay’ answering this ‘a’ type Paper 2 question: “Why did raw materials help speed up the industrial revolution after 1780?”
