Hi, 

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Educational Technology at Seoul National University, with an interdisciplinary minor in Applied Data Science. My research examines how learners collaborate with generative AI and how such collaboration can be supported through instructional design, multimodal data analytics, and educational data mining. I am particularly interested in preserving learner agency while designing data-informed learning environments that make students’ cognitive, metacognitive, and collaborative processes visible.
