To decide what  KEYWORDS to use in the search window, you need to analyze your topic.

Imagine you have an assignment to write a paper. You may have heard arguments that teenagers who have after-school jobs get worse grades because they are tired or because they are tempted to go out and spend all the money they earn instead of staying home to study. You disagree and decide that you would like to write a paper on the subject.

What should you key into the computer? Choose the two words you consider most important from the topic statement above. On the next screen you'll see a possible answer.
