This is your instructor!

Hi everyone! My name is Hajeen and I am a fifth-year doctoral student at Instructional Systems and Learning Technology. I am originally from Seoul, South Korea. I studied Educational Technology for my B.A and M.A at Ewha Womans University in Korea, and also studied MBA at Duke University. I worked for about 15 years at an AOL-like portal company, IT consulting firm, business management consulting firm, and an English education company before coming to FSU. Currently, I am very interested in student engagement in online learning, sense of belonging and othering, and social media in education. I hope to do more research on these topics and defend my prospectus during this semester. On a personal note, I have two boys, 12 and 17 years old. My older one used to play baseball at Chiles high school and my younger played at Meridican Park. However, now they are playing games at home! Ugh... During this semester, I worked from home and prepared my prospectus. I watched movies or took a walk for fun. I hope all of you had a safe summer break and ready for fall semester. You must have teacher mindsets while taking this course. I look forward to seeing you all on our live zoom session!
