Research Question

During this pandemic, many students have had to transition their lives from in-person learning to remote learning. How has the transition affected the student's mental health? How has this transition had a negative or positive effect on college students' mental health? If it has positively impacted, what are some coping methods that college students found most useful during this time? If negatively impacted, how has their poor mental health affected their ability to learn? How has the student's mental health affected the people around them (family, classmates, and faculty members)? Why would students prefer in school learning over remote learning or the other way around?

    This looks very promising. These are good sources, and the topic is very timely. Now you just need to find a focus. Why is online learning during the pandemic so challenging, especially for certain segments of the student population? What can be done to get them engaged with the material?
