I recently came across a student blog that was assigned as part of a research project regarding the COVID 19 pandemic. The student was asked to research and write a post comparing how two different countries dealt with the pandemic and compare the end results overall for how each country was impacted. The student blog I am referencing was written by Karianne Schanke, a student in Norway. Her blog can be accessed here. I found it interesting because she compared the affects of COVID in her own country and the USA where I live. She made some excellent points about where the United States fell short in communication, preparation and testing. Norway was more aggressive and they have a much smaller infection rate and death percentage. I enjoyed reading a COVID comparison from a student perspective and a person living in another country. I think this was an excellent way to combine research and blogging together.

Kim, thanks for sharing this link! It was very interesting to read what this student learned and was feeling during the pandemic from her perspective in Norway. – Becky
