SONG, Yukyeong (송유경)

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Educational Technology at the UF College of Education. I earned my master's degree in Educational Technology from Seoul National University in South Korea. My research interests are in STEM education, including AI, Data Science, Computing and CS education and Learning Analytics using AI (e.g., NLP, collaborative conversation analysis). I have plenty of practical experience and used to work as an instructional designer for engineers at the Hyundai Motor Company. I also have a great passion for teaching. I have experience teaching a wide range of students, from kindergarten to graduate students, pre-service teachers, and adult employees at companies. I serve my home country, Korea, as well as the local Korean community by volunteering to teach a Korean language class at Gainesville Korean School. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis and taking care of my little garden.
