Heeryung Choi

I am a digital learning postdoctoral associate researcher at MIT. My primary research focus is to foster self-regualted learning skills through my interdisciplinary backgrounds in human learning, data science, and learner-centered design. Outside of my research, I enjoy listening to K-pop while walking around here and there.
