Minju Yoo

I am a senior undergraduate student at Ewha Womans University, pursuing a double major in Educational Technology and Software. I am currently working as a undergraduate research intern in KIXLAB.

My research interests lie at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Educational Technology. I aim to develop AI systems for interactive learning experiences, currently focusing my research on pedagogical conversational agents. I am also interested in supporting instructors to effectively integrate these technologies into their classrooms and augment their teaching practices.

Outside of research, I am fascinated by diverse cultures around the world, with a particular interest in languages. I teach Korean to people abroad and am currently learning German. I also enjoy exploring various physical activities and recently started learning to swim as a beginner 🏊
