Ch.11 Review Industrial Revolution Industrial Revolution is a series of improvements in industrial technology that transformed the process of maufacturing goods and it started in Europe in the late 1700's and was a cause of population growth between 1750 and 1950. The development of factories was due to the steam engine, patented in 1769 by James Watt. The iron industry was first to increase production through extensive use of Watt's steam engine. Coal was the next product that benefited the iron and steel manufacturing required energy to operate the blast furnaces and steam engines and coal was the answer for this. The new engineering profession made its biggest impact on transportation especially canals and rail ways.
The American Industrial Revolution was a time in the history of the United States of innovation and rapid growth. Growth that led to changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology.

Gathering Research Data Paper CJA 334 Paul Anyalebechi Samyra Porter Mosley June 27, 2011 Abstract In this paper I shall address what I’ve learned about criteria for criminal justice research, specifically with regards to what research method is appropriate for this proposal. This paper will include the goal/purpose of doing the research, the type of interview structure I would use and why, some of the questions that I would ask and why, then I will provide some advantages of a qualitative data-gathering strategy over quantitative methods of obtaining information. Then the paper will address an issue about conducting survey research, more specifically consent and confidentiality. The research survey is targeted towards police
