Christine Hwang is an online learning designer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She is interested in civics and literacy learning design for multilingual learners as well as the role of EdTech/AI in 21st-century education. She grew up traveling between the US and China.

Her interest in education stems from both her passion to advocate for mental health and her family background. We discuss at length the importance of digital tools and learning environments within school contexts. Check out what Christine has to say about being a global citizen in the digitalized world!
