Industrial Revolution mini-assignment: research an invention from the 1700s-1800s (topics assigned)

Work in the library computer lab and prepare for the 60-90 second "infomercial" tomorrow morning.

Students picked partners (Caveat: can not work with someone that you have worked with previously for a project, and you cannot partner with someone that is currently sitting in your row).

There were some students that were unable to find a partner based on the above criteria.  It is important for students to be able to branch out and work with different people in the classroom.  When some of the students finally picked a partner, they were unable to tell me the name of their partner?!!  This should not be happening 2.5 months into semester two - this was a good teaching moment for the class.
