Deductions & credits

Can you clarify scenario 1.?

  1. Most people subtract box 1 from box 5 and enter the difference as income. 

So for my daughter on her 1098T  there is in box 1 $8,571.00 and box 5 $8,561.

 

Are you saying the difference (-$10.00) is what we would enter under the Education category for her on OUR tax forms not what is in box 5?
