system?<br />
Score of 1:<br />
States the way that the steam engine promoted the growth of the factory system<br />
Examples: it powered the machines in the mills; it provided power; steam-powered machines<br />
were too big for the home; steam-powered machines could do the work faster <strong>and</strong>/or<br />
more efficiently; steam engines could power multiple machines at one time; using<br />
coal for the engines meant factories did not have to be located near streams<br />
Score of 0:<br />
Incorrect response<br />
Examples: James Watt improved the steam engine; water was pumped from mines; factories<br />
needed to be located near streams<br />
Vague response that does not answer the question<br />
Examples: it was improved; James Watt; power loom weaving; machines were all in one place<br />
