Courses Plus Student 1,784 PointsWith regards to styling the education elements only descendant of the education ID...
I thought an ID could appear only once per document? If this is the case, wouldn't using a descendant selector be redundant? I'd have thought a class would have been more appropriate.

Courses Plus Student 23,765 Pointsyou could use the selector when you want to specify an element within the container element.
An example of that wouldl be for example selecting an id of #nav, but targetting the links inside the nav, for a specific state
#nav a :hover{
border-bottom:5px solid red;
}
Hope this helps
