One in four design students says their wellbeing has suffered while studying from home during the pandemic, although half of them see advantages in remote learning, according to a survey conducted by Dezeen and Bath School of Design.
Eight out of 31 students who took part in the survey said they had suffered from wellbeing and mental health issues. My biorhythms have altered, insomnia has come and everything is like a continuous night, said interior design student Angélica Monge Garcia.
Graphic communication student Emily Taylor, 20, said the switch to remote learning has negatively affected my wellbeing, mostly due to the anxieties of the pandemic and uncertainties about the opportunities that there will be for me after my degree.
