So students needed to learn skills like following rules, being on time, and using (terrestrial) machines, as schools adjusted their setup (desks in rows, bells, timed classes) to train students for such factory - related work.

Answer:

Schools originally used rows of desks and bells to prepare kids for factory jobs (which required following rules, being on time, and using machines) after the Industrial Revolution, by creating a factory - like disciplined environment with rows of desks, bells for timing, and timed classes.
