Reid McLain
Hello, My name is Reid McLain and am from Colorado, USA, but currently, live in South Korea. I am a member of the faculty in the Global Business and Technology Department at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies. I have a Master of Business Administration and will soon have a master's degree in Educational Technology. The creation of this website was part of my MET studies and part of earning a graduate certificate as a Tech Integration Specialist.
The world of global business requires graduates to have a strong set of "soft skill" communication tools. These tools range from technological skills to management competencies. Flexible graduates who can communicate in any situation will have a better chance than those that do not. While graduates need these skills, so do instructors and the integration of technology can help instructors better prepare their students for their futures.
Technology integration has begun to help me achieve my instructional goals as a communication coach. Guiding students' English learning focus from a test-taking study to a communication discipline and lingua franca. I am passionate about the goals and dreams of my students. My class objectives help students meet transferable skills they can take with them into the professional world. I implement technology into my classes to help me with all of this.
