Yeong Ju Lee

I am an academic in the Department of Linguistics and the School of Education at Macquarie University. My research interests include digital language learning and teaching, with a focus on digital literacy, multimodality, digital spaces, social media, and AI.

I teach APPL8260 Language Teaching and Learning Beyond the Classroom in the Master of Applied Linguistics and TESOL program, and EDST8312 Bilingual Education: Theory and Practice in the Master of Education and Teaching program.

I have recently been awarded funding through the 2025 Data Horizon Research Centre Scheme as the Chief Investigator, in collaboration with A/Prof Michael Proctor, Prof Mark Dras, Prof Peter Roger, and Dr Vanessa Enriquez.

I am also the Chief Investigator of the AI and literacy project at the Australian Centre for the Advancement of Literacy at Australian Catholic University, funded by a Teaching Development Grant (2024-2026) in collaboration with Prof Rauno Parrila and Dr Danielle Colenbrander.

In addition, I teach in the Bachelor of Education program at Australian Catholic University and the postgraduate TESOL program at the University of Wollongong.
