Technological change often stimulates economic activity, suck as the factories that grew out of the Industrial Revolution. Think of what you have learned about the past 100 years. What technological change do you think has created the most economic activity over that time? Explain your answer in a well-written paragraph, including support for your opinions.

Technological changes since 1909?

TV
radio
planes
computers
internet
mobile/cell phones

TV created billions of dollars in scripts, actors, advertising.

Computers and their peripherals created billions of dollars in software and other hardware.

Internet is growing so fast -- but includes advertising, software, etc.

Planes transport billions of people and goods around the world.

What do you think has created the most economic activity?



Answered by beeca
I think the thing that has created the most economic acticity is computers (which u already said) because there are alot of jobs out there that require computers, and without them there would be alot less jobs.
Answered by Ms. Sue
That's a good start. You should probably add details about the jobs that the invention of computers have created.

#4 also because it increases my wealth
#5 is one because it is improving my life
are these right? plz help!
Answered by Ms. Sue
I don't see how homework and homework club are economic activities. If you earned money by delivering newspapers, babysitting, and doing household chores, then those are economic activities.

Economic activities mean earning or spending money.

Buying stuff is also an economic activity because you're spending money.
Answered by beeca
ooh ok because in my book it said that economic activities are also thing that improve peoples lives, but i must have gotten confused on wht it meant by that. WHat if i change those to answers to bought a sweater, then bought boots, because i was spending money for both

Make a sketch or diagram to show how to the range of economic activities has gone from being very narrow in the Stone Age to very broad today.
