As millions of families enter the uncharted waters of virtual school from home, there is expert advice available. Dr. Kevin Corsini, the president of San Diego Christian College joins us to share tips that can make online studies more practical, while at the same time keeping home life balanced.

Normally, “We have a natural boundary in place between work and family, and it’s called the office, or it’s called the school, where you go to a separate physical location.” But Dr. Corsini emphasizes, “And that’s gone…the refuge that we call home is also a classroom, is also the office and it’s beginning to blur the lines” of what needs to be a home space or a work or school environment. 

“Not only that, but it’s impacting the roles in the family. You know, one minute you have to be a father. The next minute you have to be a teacher. The next minute, you’re putting on your professional hat as well – and throughout the day, that can be very challenging.”

There is also the factor of a student feeling marginalized. Many online courses are pre-recorded videos that can create a gap between the student and teacher/professor, and input and association with fellow classmates.

Join us in our podcast as Dr. Corsini shares tips for making this unexpected form of education work more smoothly.

San Diego Christian College is currently holding in-person classes, in addition to online studies.
