HyunJoo Oh, Director & Assistant Professor
HyunJoo Oh is the director of the CoDe Craft group and an Assistant Professor with a joint appointment in the School of Industrial Design and the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech. She received her PhD from the Craft Tech Lab & ATLAS Institute at University of Colorado Boulder and has master’s degrees in Entertainment Technology from Carnegie Mellon University and Media Interaction Design from Ewha Womans University.
Her work, based on a broad spectrum of design and computing technologies, investigates fundamental questions on how people think and make – how those are closely linked and shape each other. She is the PI on an NSF grant (#2030880) working on a tangible kit of computational craft materials with middle school students and teachers. Her team studies how a novel tangible approach can unblackbox computing via a flexible palette of materials and improve participation and expressive learning. She is also the Co-PI on an NSF grant (#2053160) working on a radio construction kit to bridge in and out-of-school learning activities.
For this academic calendar (2023-2024), she serves on the program committees for ACM Conference on Tangible, Embedded and Embodied Interaction (TEI 2024), ACM Conference on Designing Interactive Systems (DIS 2024) and ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2024). She is also an editorial board member of the International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction.
