My name is Seulbi Lee (how to pronounce my name μ΄μ¬λΉπ°π·).
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Special Education at University of Oregon. My research interests are centered around specific reading comprehension difficulties, academic support for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and developmental disabilities, and technology-enhanced learning practices. My dissertation aims to explore the cognitive mechanisms driving inferencing during the reading of text and graphic narratives in students with ASD and to evaluate the effectiveness of the question development intervention, combined with eye-tracking analysis, in enhancing inferential reasoning. I am also interested in broadening my research scope to encompass international development for inclusive education and raising disability awareness in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in the areas of reading and literacy.

I publish quarterly columns in Special Education in Practice affiliated with the National Institute of Special Education of South Korea. In my free time, I enjoy reading (see my StoryGraph for current reads), crocheting, exploring nature, and learning new languages.
