Improving Young English Learners’ Language and Literacy Skills Through Teacher Professional Development: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Using a randomized controlled trial, we tested a new teacher professional development program for increasing the language and literacy skills of young Latino English learners with 45 teachers and 105 students in 12 elementary schools. School-based teams randomly assigned to the intervention received professional development focused on cultural wealth, high-impact instructional strategies, and a framework for collaboration. We observed each teache…
The Rolt Memorial Lecture 2011
The Pawtucket Dam in Lowell is a key site in the interpretation of the city’s industrial heritage and a potent symbol of corporate determination to alter the natural environment for textile production and profit. It is both a certified National Landmark and the most dramatic feature of a National Park, the first one to be located in an American industrial city. Without a great dam at Pawtucket Falls, Lowell would never have become a renowned exam…

The Skulking Way of War: Technology and Tactics among the New England Indians
During the brutal and destructive King Philip's War, the New England Indians combined new European weaponry with their traditional use of stealth, surprise, and mobility.

Making Arms in the Machine Age: Philadelphia's Frankford Arsenal, 1816-1870
Making Arms in the Machine Age traces the growth and development of the United States Arsenal at Frankford, Pennsylvania, from its origin in 1816 to 1870. During this period, the arsenal evolved from a small post where skilled workers hand-produced small arms ammunition to a full-scale industrial complex employing a large civilian workforce. James Farley uses the history of the arsenal to examine larger issues including the changing technology of…

Scarce Metals and Petroleum
Lured by the potential for substantial wealth, Americans have focused a disproportionate share of their industrial effort on extracting and processing resources that are both scarce and in high demand. Gold and silver were always valuable and eagerly sought, but in the nineteenth century, the demand tor other nonferrous metals and (or petroleum rose to unprecedented levels. Obtaining these scarce, nonrenewable resources brought new patterns of in…
Coal, Canals, Railways, and Industrial Cities
During the decades after the 1820s, Americans reshaped the industrial landscape by gradually substituting coal for the wood and flowing water they were using as energy sources and iron for wood in structures and machinery. The amount of power they could obtain from wood or water at a given place was limited, but coal resources were so large that more was always available. Coal could be transported to distant consumers by the newly built canals an…
Work in Factories
Factories, and the factory system, are at the heart of the American industrial experience. Since the 1790s, Americans have developed many different types of factories and varieties of work within each of them. It is a terrible mistake to think of factory workers as simply automatons who do some type of mindless, repetitive task, day in and day out. The average American has never been in a factory and knows very little about what actually goes on …
The Factory
With Samuel Slater’s textile mill (1793, in Pawtucket, Rhode Island) and Eli Whitney’s armory (1798, in Whitneyville, Connecticut), American entrepreneurs began to make in factories products that had formerly been made in homes or craft shops. Another new concept in manufacturing, the principle of uniformity (sometimes described as “interchangeability”), was also winning converts in America. Factories making uniform products increasingly used pow…
Fuel and Materials
As American entrepreneurs enlarged their undertakings and began to shift them from waterpowered shops in the countryside to factories in the cities, they created a demand for new sources of energy and larger quantities of raw materials. The coal and, later, oil that they used to power their factories were brought to manufacturing centers on canals and railways and by coastal or river shipping. They used the wood and water resources of North Ameri…
Components of Industry
Industry uses technical and organizational skills, engineering knowledge, and energy to transform natural resources into useful products. (Our definition of industry excludes such late-twentieth-century coinages as “banking industry,” “leisure industry,” and “culture industry.”) When we carry on industry, we alter the landscape by using natural resources, by releasing wastes, and by building workplaces, industrial communities, and transportation …
Wood and Water
The early Spanish adventurers came to America primarily to mine precious metals. Some colonists in eastern North America also had hopes of finding gold and silver, but more turned to the abundant timber and water resources of the New World and undertook lumbering and ironmaking to produce goods for export to the mother country. Through the next 200 years, most American industrial entrepreneurs used energy from wood and from flowing water. Water w…
Countryside, Shops, and Ships
In the early seventeenth century, Americans began setting up shops to manufacture items such as soda ash, gunpowder, glass, charcoal, iron, casks, and wagons on a larger scale than they could manage in their homes. In some establishments, the proprietor was a practicing artisan (usually designated a “craftsman” today), while in others, such as glasshouses and ironworks, a manager coordinated the efforts of a dozen or more people. By the early nin…
Industrial Archaeology
The prominence of industry in the culture of the North Atlantic nations has provoked thoughtful people to ask penetrating questions about the roots of innovation and the social and environmental consequences of industrial technology. One cluster of questions, long of interest to scholars, focuses on how and by whom new technologies were created and how their selection, use, or rejection has been influenced by cultural values. In the past quarter …

The Texture of Industry: An Archaeological View of the Industrialization of North America
While historians have given ample attention to stories of entrepreneurship, invention, and labor conflict, they have told us little about actual work-places and how people worked. Workers seldom wrote about their daily employment. However, they did leave behind their tools, products, shops, and factories as well as the surrounding industrial landscapes and communities. In this book, Gordon and Malone look at the industrialization of North America…

Changing Military Technology Among the Indians of Southern New England, 1600-1677
TOO OFTEN MODERN WRITERS DESCRIBE THE AMERICAN INDIANS OF THE 17th century as primitive savages awed by European products and incapable of grasping the rudiments of the white man's technology. A close look at documentary and archaeological evidence from the period reveals the injustice of such an interpretation. Although impressed by many of the technological accomplishments of the white man, Indians were selective in adopting European material c…
