The digital exhibit on \u201cLife in 1776\u201d offers a deep dive into early American society and the Revolutionary period. Viewers are able to explore nine modules on a range of topics including voting, education, and commerce. The modules feature photos, newspaper clippings, and videos that bring together the collective work of museums, historical societies, and academic institutions. By learning about the origins of our nation, we gain a greater appreciation of the progress that has shaped American history.<\/p>\n
The \u201cInnovation Timeline\u201d showcases over 50 key innovations in technology and science spanning from the founding of our country to the present-day. It allows visitors to explore major milestones and lesser-known achievements from the launch of the first successful commercial steamboat in the 19th century to the modern-day discovery of CRISPR gene editing technology. Through this multi-media timeline, users will gain an appreciation for the role innovation has played in America\u2019s success and learn more about the inventors and explorers that have propelled the nation\u2019s progress.<\/p>\n
As we collectively reflect on 250 years of history and look towards the future, this project aims to spark an exploration of the nation\u2019s past that inspires the next generation of American innovators.<\/p>\n
