Would the world be the same without New Haven's Contribution to the world? by https://padlet.com/inzerop1/vzxxhi9602qj Without some of the contributions that New Haven had and the people ideas that were influenced by New Haven and the surrounding places history might not be the same. Some of the inventions that came out of New Haven heavily shaped how the world is today. In my opinion the world would be drastically different should there have not been some of the important creations that came out of New Haven. Especially the inventions of Eli Whitney, and his cotton gin along with his method for interchangeable parts for the gun industry, and the vulcanization of rubber and the whole process that was discovered by Charles Goodyear. These inventions gave way to a whole list of other inventions that stemmed off of their inventions. Inventions throughout the industrial revolution like the Steamboat and different machines to spin the cotton and make textiles were created throughout the century to make use of the cotton that was available now. Additionally though the invention of Charles Goodyear other inventions were able to proceed his, like different shoe soles, tires for cars, hockey pucks, conveyor belts the use for his invention of the new use of rubber was endless. I decided to create this Padlet presentation in this way to give the view the idea of how New Haven helped change the world to what it is today. I wanted them to get a sense of how the world would be different should there not have been the contributions and the inventions that came out of New Haven. Certainly there are a lot of other things that came out of New Haven there just wasn’t enough time to put it all in there. So I decided to focus my Padlet on the inventions that came out of New Haven that had the strongest impact on society and what the influence that they had on the world. Sometimes when people look in a museum they just look at the item think its cool, read the little tag to figure out what the displayed item is and then move on without really getting the whole story behind the invention or the item. I think that it is important to be able to know the reasoning behind some of the inventions or why and how they were created or what was the cause to influence the creation of the invention. Therefore that’s why I chose to create this Padlet the way I did. I wanted to give the viewer a sense that while there is a lot of other inventions that came out of Connecticut as a whole and a few more out of New Haven itself, I wanted them to know some of the more influential inventions and contributions that were from here. While still giving the viewer the opportunity to learn more about some of the other inventions from New Haven and Connecticut if they wanted to pursue it by clicking some of the links throughout the Padlet Presentation. I also tried to ask little questions to the viewer throughout the Padlet presentation to be able to get them to think about the inventions that were created and how that if they weren’t, how it might have affected their life today and how things are in the world today. I know to me if the Cotton Gin wasn’t invented there might not be some of the clothing brands that there are today, or might not be as cheap as there are able to be today with the mass production methods that Eli Whitney created. Also if there was no vulcanized rubber, the whole sneaker industry could be different today, as well as the mechanical and industrial industries that make use of the rubber for different types of hoses in machines. If Winchester didn’t come about, their contributions to the industry with their lever action rifles pump shotguns and different types of ammo history could have been different. There would have been less competition in the industry and we might not have had the additions that Winchester was able to give us. Certainly there was a lot more that I could have added if I chose to make the Padlet regarding Connecticut as a whole and the inventions that contributed to history. I wanted to stick more local for the project, and be able to give the viewer the same opportunity to learn on more of a local scale. Not just learning on a local scale but looking at how the local scale was able to effect the larger scale and reach and put an impact on the rest of the world. I also created this padlet in this way because I was trying to give the viewer a sense of what creations were a result of some of the inventions that came out of New Haven. Without the influence of some of some of the inventions that came out of New Haven there might have been as strong of a need for other inventions that arose because of New Haven’s contributions. en-us 2017-12-07 20:05:13 UTC 2023-07-24 23:35:33 UTC hello@padlet.com inzerop1 https://padlet.com/inzerop1/vzxxhi9602qj/wish/214313088 2017-12-07 20:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/inzerop1/vzxxhi9602qj/wish/214313088 Inventions stemmed from the Cotton Gin inzerop1 https://padlet.com/inzerop1/vzxxhi9602qj/wish/214313089

The Cotton Gin was created in 1793, and what it did was it allowed for the separation of the raw cotton to separate the cotton seeds from the cotton fibers. Whitney's invention fueled the demand for cotton.  To where the demand was doubling each year after 1800, up until America was producing almost 75% of the worlds cotton during the mid nineteenth century. The increase of demand of cotton led to many other important inventions of the Industrial revolution, but it also had some negative consequences such as the increase in slavery. Increases in the amounts of slaves in the country increased tremendously, as well as the size of the plantations rose with the rise of demand for cotton. Farmers that weren't planting cotton weren't as profitable either.

The history behind the frisbee might surprise you. At the end of the 19th century a bakery opened up called Frisbee Pie's. Students at Yale would buy the pies and and use the tins after they ate them to play around. It's said that they would call out "Frisbee" to alert the person their throwing the disc to and thats how the activity ended up getting its name. On the West Coast there was a guy named Fred Morrison that was doing the same thing at the time, throwing the pie tins but not calling it a frisbee. He developed a plastic frisbee that he called the, "Pluto Plater" in 1951. Then in 1955 he was selling it with toy maker Wham-O. Shortly after in 1957, its thought that the Wham-O makers heard the term Frisbee while on tour of the Ivy League Schools and coins the names for themselves

The inventions in the different industries as well as recreation inventions helped us to get to where we are now. Without them things could have been drastically different. We might not have had the advantage in the wars that we did through the firearm industry. Also if the cotton gin was never invented mass production and the Industrial Revolution and Slavery in the south could have been differently. In addition to that things might not be the same in terms of rubber and everything that that has rubber in it.  Our childhoods might have been different as a result of some of the inventions not being there.
