This pathfinder has been designed to help you find your way to great information. The links will take to to information that can be found in the library or on the internet.

The information that you need is sometimes steps away from you in a book on a shelf so remember to check the resources that we have in the library first.

__**Before starting your independent research**__

Check out the '10 steps to better web research' guide on [|www.sweetsearch.com].

Remember - internet search engines use __Keywords__ so you will need to think about the question you are asking and use the main words ignoring common words (the, are, a)

You can use the word AND to make sure that websites include both words eg.

Earth AND orbit.

Remember to record your information in note form - write the MAIN idea in your own words. Write down where you found the information.
