Dr. Kim Foreman is Acting Chair and Professor of Instructional Technology at San Francisco State University, where she teaches graduate courses in Advanced Multimedia Design, the History and Theory of Instructional Technology, field experience, and technology integration.

Dr. Foreman has published journal articles and newspaper columns on learning styles, multicultural education, interactive multimedia, instructional design, and technology integration. She has also served as an editorial consultant to a variety of journals including Educational Technology Research and Development, Korean Educational Technology Research, and The Journal of Higher Education (JSTOR). She holds a PhD in educational technology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Before the technology bug bit her, Dr. Foreman was a middle school English teacher in Korea.

Dr. Foreman has been writing a bi-weekly educational column in Korea Times. Her educational essays have been widely read by Korean teachers and parents nationally and internationally. Additionally, Dr. Foreman also has been co-writing a column called, “Korean and Korean Culture Through the Eyes of Strangers”. Since 1998, Dr. Foreman has conducted teacher training in Africa for one month every summer. Her initial participation with the African Project was to deliver food and clothes to refugees who were displaced by the 1994 Rwanda Genocide, but after witnessing the desperate need for teacher training, she initiated annual training seminars in Rwanda, Uganda, and the Congo.
