Blog Post 5: Incorporating Data

In my article, I will be researching how the mental health of college students has been affected because of Covid-19. 

Many college students struggled to keep their mental health stable for various reasons even before there was a worldwide pandemic. I plan on finding statistics comparing how many students have been facing mental health issues before the pandemic to how many are currently facing those issues. I will also dive deeper and find data that specifies what aspects of the pandemic are causing them such issues regarding their mental health. I plan on finding both stats from across the nation and doing a random sample from various Bloomsburg University students.

To show this data, I will use a line graph to show how the number of students with mental health issues has increased /declined ever since the pandemic started. After this graphic, I will also include a chart that shows the specific reasons as to why so many students are facing these issues and the percentage of each one. Financial troubles, online learning, the difficulty of self-isolation, etc. will all be shown on this graph.
