Noticing that over the years, hours spent per week has gone up while overall course ratings have gone down, I decided to then take those 2 datasets and extrapolate them over a longer period of time. To do this, I mimicked these data plots in adobe flash, drew a rough line of best fit, and proceeded to animate what would happen if the trend were to continue into the future. On its own however, simply extending the line didn't give the impression I was trying to go for, so I decided to change the colors of the lines as time progressed to indicate that the situation was getting "worse". Lastly I added a face at the bottom of the graph, to fully convey the student's emotional state as things trended towards "worse"
