Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University

​Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University (ALKU) is a dynamic and rapidly growing state university located in Alanya, Turkey, committed to excellence in higher education, research, and societal innovation.

​Within the university, our specialized research group—anchored at the ALTSO Vocational School and Faculty of Education—focuses on the intersection of Educational Technologies, Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIEd), and Learning Analytics. We bridge the gap between advanced digital data science and practical pedagogical applications to foster inclusive, effective, and future-ready learning environments.

​Core Expertise & Research Areas:

​Predictive Modeling & Artificial Intelligence: Extensive experience in utilizing artificial neural networks (ANN), machine learning algorithms, and educational data mining techniques to predict student success, assess online readiness, and model learning behaviors.

​Innovative Digital Learning Frameworks: Specialization in designing, implementing, and evaluating blended, online, and flipped learning models (flipped classroom), integrated with modern information literacy and digital competencies.

​Digital Well-being & Educational Equity: Investigating the psycho-social impacts of digital tools, digital addiction dynamics, cyberbullying/victimization patterns, and accessibility needs for diverse and neurodivergent learners.

​Non-Formal Education & Youth Engagement: Active involvement in international youth mobility projects, experiential learning methodologies, and participatory design frameworks.

​Horizon Europe & Consortium Collaboration:

​We are actively seeking and open to collaborating in international research consortia under Horizon Europe (particularly Cluster 4 - Digital, Industry and Space, and digital education priorities). We offer robust scientific leadership, methodological design, AI-driven data analysis, and validation capabilities for projects aiming to build ethical, human-centric, and data-driven educational tools, decision support systems, and digital learning platforms.
