The way in which historians focus on industrialisation rather than on small workshops is a good example of how what we believe today about the past is influenced by what historians choose to notice and what they ignore. Note down one event or aspect of your own life which adults such as your parents or teachers may think is unimportant, but which you believe to be important.
An aspect of my life that adults might see as unimportant is the time I spend learning a new skill online, like video editing or coding, through tutorials. To them, it might look like I am just spending more time on the computer for leisure. However, I believe it is important because it is a form of self-education that is preparing me with practical, modern skills for future careers that may not even exist yet. It teaches me problem-solving and creativity in a way that is different from formal schoolwork, and I feel it is a significant part of my personal and intellectual growth.
