A Possible topic for research paper

One possible topic for a research paper would be the differences academically and socially between those who took online classes from those who had a more traditional in-person college education. I'm thinking of choosing this topic because it is very preventive in recent years as more and more students take online college. As COVID-19 stopped students from attending in-person classes, knowing the effects of online-only school would be beneficial as it could a cheaper alternative to more traditional higher education.What are the advantages of schooling compared to online education? - Quora

    It might be hard to get studies that address COVID-19 related online education, but there have probably been many online vs. in-person education studies. This is a promising topic, especially if you try to figure out what type of students benefit most from the different environments. Online education is not for everyone. But I can share at least one interesting story I heard on NPR specifically about a fellow who needed to take online classes to succeed.

The graph helps illustrate the percentages of people in several income brackets. I can use it to show how many students do not have internet or computer access. This will be used to point out how less affluent students tend to a larger disadvantage when it comes to e-learning. Source: https://usafacts.org/articles/internet-access-students-at-home/
