Your event CAN NOT just be a solution to a negative problem. 1. What was the event? 2. How does it affect us today? en-us 2020-02-04 08:55:15 UTC 2023-05-20 09:27:55 UTC hello@padlet.com bakkerl https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/440138135 1. 600BC - The Greeks discovered (static) electricity kinda by accident.  The Romans and Persians may have had batteries (acc to archeologists). But 1831, electricity as we know it became useful.

The flow on effects mean that all schools are now mixed race and everyone is considered equal. ]]> 2020-02-08 00:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/442459604 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/442864197 It was peace of an empire that loved to fight and in which bloodshed was part of the daily life was what the peace bought forward. (This lasted for over 200 years (27 BCE - 14 CE)). Engineering helped because there were roads built, and an explosion gave us the arch, plumbing and it also helped us in things we do in our everyday lives. The peace helped because we still do engineering today and we are developing more ways to do these things more efficiently.]]> 2020-02-10 05:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/442864197 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/442864378 in 1796 Edward Jenner presented a immunity to the smallpox virus.

Insulin was discovered by Sir Fredrick G Banting, Charles H Best and JJR Macleod at the University of Toronto in 1921 and was subsequently purified be James B Collip.

Charles Bourseul, Innocenzo Manzetti, Antonio Meucci, Johann Philipp Reis, Alexander Graham Bell, and Elisha Gray had taken part in creating the telephone with other inventions, but Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha Gray is more recognised for the invention. The telephone had been modified over the years into the smart phones we have today, which most people rely on.  ]]> 2020-02-10 07:44:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/442885032 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/443491170 1. The first prototype of the internet came in the 1960s and was known as ARPANET. The U.S Department of Defence intended for ARPANET to be a network on which multiple computers could communicate. In 1983 ARPANET began to use TCP/IP Protocols (fancy way of saying it allows two or more computers nowadays devices to communicate) making it very popular amongst researchers. It wasn't until 1990 that the internet became popular amongst the public due to the birth of the world wide web. Providing access to data in the form of websites and hyperlinks (just links that you can click on)
2. The creation of the internet or more so the www, has affected us greatly. We have access to unlimited amounts of information at our finger tips. We are able to connect and communicate to anyone from almost anywhere. We are able to upload and download content that people create and share. If we don't know the answer to something we can google it, if we want to learn about something, if we miss the six o'clock news or want to look further into whats happening around the world we use the internet.]]> 2020-02-11 05:15:22 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/443491170 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/443532736 1. Although many people attempted to make planes fly ever since. It wasn't until 1903 that the Wright brothers thought of building a flyable machine, where this was just an idea where they wanted to break limits like all inventors do.

2. It helps us travel long distances that would usually take longer if we took boats and it would also help with sicknesses and such.]]> 2020-02-11 08:34:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/443532736 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444136850  1. the first schools began in the 17th century in the 13 original colonies of the united states. The earliest schools focused on reading, writing and maths.
2. currently schools have a much wider variety of subjects e.g. history, art, languages etc, but the basic structure of today's schools are very similar to the schools in the 17th century. If school hadn't begun, it would be much less likely for certain people to get certain jobs, as you would be taught only what your parents know.]]> 2020-02-12 03:14:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444136850 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444159189 Fire was first discovered during the early stone age. This allowed humans to cook plants and meat, create warmth during the cold seasons, make weapons and hunt/defend themselves from the wild life. Fire now to humans is still important for the same reasons as the past but now we also use it for cultural shows, and religious acts. Fire to us has become more than a survival tool, it became a way of celebrating and worshipping the gods.]]> 2020-02-12 04:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444159189 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444166746 1.The industrial revolution began in Great Britain in the late 1700s. It moved the production of goods from little shops and houses to big factories. It began in the textile industry when making cloth was moved from homes to factories. It brought many changes including people moving to a big city for a better job (many people lived on farms in rural areas) introduce new technologies including steam power and electricity, new types of transportation and just a whole different lifestyle for many
2.It shaped our modern world by making it more efficient with factories that mass produce items. We can now travel long distance is in cars, planes etc.. because of the engine that was invented/created during the industrial revolution. Working is much less physically hard than it used to be because of the available technology we invented/created during this time. Overall without it the quality of life would be much worse and working would be much harder if it never happened.]]> 2020-02-12 05:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444166746 https://padlet.com/bakkerl/xtv9ski7z6dy/wish/444206866
1. the berlin wall was built in 1961 to separate west berlin from east Germany because  East Germans escaped to West Berlin or West Germany from 1949 to 1961, so that left them no choice but to block the border between the two.

She didnt believe she had to move because of her race despite the fact that it was the law, little did she know her brave act resulted in her becoming “the mother of the civil rights movement”. Shorly after her arrest on december 1st came the mongeomery bus boycott by 17,000 black citizen. In 1956 segregation on buses were ruled unconstitutional and it was all due to Rosa actions that day.
