Scavenger Hunt Review

I took a peek at what Alexi has planned for the scavenger hunt. I'm afraid she might have made it a bit too complex for most students. However it is well researched and you will learn a lot if you dare to attempt it. Alexi should walk away from this knowing she could have constructed it better.

Focus

There is a lot of information out there to be distracted by. The key to any research is to pick your topic and focus on it. A little exploration may lead you to new topics and avenues to research another day. But you must remember to keep to the topic you are researching today.
