FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP


         

 


 

We are in England in the mid-18th century, considered at the time as the First World Power on a political, economic and social level. It is the place where what we will know as the Industrial Revolution will take place, to be considered one of the most important milestones of humanity since the invention of the wheel, of writing and printing. For this process to take place, there will be different milestones, such the famous agricultural revolution and different production methods, from the domestic to the factory system. 

 

There will be five clans (Birgbmingham, Bristol, Edimburgh, Liverpool and Newcastle)  that will develop and evolve in the industrial field caused by its excellent geostrategic position for the construction of future textile and steel industries. Both sectors will be the promoters of this great revolution and the development of urban life.

    Our activity consists on watching two videos taken from a very famous film called Germinal (1993) in which you will see two very different life-styles : Burgueois and proletarian ones.  Your clan must take 4 differences and or similarities between the videos, using what we have learnt in class. Finally, you will answer if you consider both life situations fair or unfair. You can´t repeat the arguments! You will write it using a Collaborative Word Drive below which you can find on Symbaloo.   Good luck clans... watch out carefully ... -Bourgeois Family.   -Proletarian Family.   https://docs.google.com/document/d/164TGZPxcGtAT_ofOuaXnimIqrqTZ_TNPONR4nMdKhYc/edit?usp=sharing
