Bu amaçla, vakıf üniversitelerinde okumakta olan öğrencilerle derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılmış ve öğrencilerin açıklamalarına kaynaklık eden söylemlere bakılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında; çoğunluğu 20’li yaşlarda olmakla birlikte, 18-45 yaş aralığında 19 vakıf üniversitesi öğrencisi ile görüşülmüştür; 12 öğrenci ile bireysel görüşme yapılmış, diğerleriyle de 2 ayrı odak grup görüşmesi yapılmıştır. Görüşmeler yarı-yapılandırılmış tarzda yürütülmüş ve ses kayıt cihazı ile kaydedilmiştir. Kaydedilen görüşmeler, söylem analizi tekniği ile analiz edilmek üzere yazıya dökülmüştür. Görüşmelerin analizi sonucunda; katılımcıların açıklamalarının “vakıf üniversitesine dair söylemler” ve “vakıf üniversitesi öğrencisi olmaya dair söylemler” şeklinde iki başlık altında toplandığı görülmüştür. Vakıf üniversitesine dair söylemler başlığı altında iki temaya ulaşılmıştır; “eğitim kalitesi” ve “erişim kolaylığı”. Benzer şekilde, vakıf üniversitesi öğrencisi olmaya dair söylemler başlığı altında da iki farklı temaya ulaşılmıştır; “başarısız/yetersiz öğrenci” ve “ayrıcalıklı/zengin öğrenci”. Ayrıca katılımcıların açıklamalarında “kendini olumsuzlamaya karşı kendini eşitleme” şeklinde bir ideolojik ikilemin söz konusu olduğu görülmüştür. Analiz sonuçları bir bütün olarak ele alındığında, “vakıf üniversitesi”nin ve “vakıf üniversitesi öğrencisi”nin öncelikle olumsuz bir şekilde anlamlandırıldığı görülmektedir. Her ne kadar vakıf üniversitelerinin bazı açılardan olumlu yönleri veya avantajları olduğu söylense de özellikle “eğitimin kalitesi” ve “akademisyenlerin niteliği” bakımından devlet üniversitelerine kıyasla daha olumsuz değerlendirildiği; bununla bağlantılı şekilde vakıf üniversitesi öğrencisinin de devlet üniversitesi öğrencisine göre daha “başarısız/yetersiz” olarak konumlandırıldığı söylenebilir.Yayın Financial sustainability of higher education system(PressAcademia, 2024-01-15) Eşkinat, Ali; Teker, SuatPurpose- Financial sustainability is vital for the higher education systems in the global competitive atmosphere of the world of 2020s. This paper reviews a comparative analysis between the budgets and expenditures of the Turkish and British higher education systems, beside a view on those of the OECD countries. This paper intends to clarify Turkish higher education system’s difficulties in financial sustainability to provide required academic standards due to increasing costs and number of students versus the economic strength of significant actors such as the United Kingdom in the globalized competition. For this reason, this paper advocates cost advantages provided by the application of effective online education model to acquire financial sustainability clarifying the rise of digital universities by the 2030s. Methodology-. The study employs a literature review aiming to perform a comparative analysis on the financial structures of Turkish and British higher education systems. Moreover, OECD data were also reflected. The aim was to identify the possible difficulties of Turkish higher education system in financial sustainability to provide required academic standards in the competitive global area and find a contemporary solution. Findings- The analysis reveals that the Turkish higher education system have disadvantages in providing financial sustainability under the conditions of increasing costs as well as number of students in order to reach the required standards in the global league. Notably, it is clearly seen that efective application of online education strategy is an opportunity to balance revenues and expenditures in this way. As a matter of the fact, the effect of digital transformation era and the attitude of Generation Z students have already prepared this atmosphere. Conclusion-. Governments highly financed higher education systems after 20th Century. However, financial problems emerged due to increasing number of students and increasing costs. Eventhough the budgets had continuously been increased, Turkish higher education system have realized lower expenditures in the OECD average. Problems in financial sustainability to provide required academic standards have clearly been noticed in the global competitive atmosphere while compared with the example of the United Kingdom. Over the Covid19 crisis, universities successfully implemented hybrid education around the world increasing the effect of online systems forced by Generation Z’s perspective on embracing Digital Technologies. So, effective application of online education model appeared as a new opportunity for Turkish higher education system to provide financial sustainability decreasing costs and also efficiently compete in the global area. Indeed, blended learning in traditional universities and inevitable growth of digital higher education institutions named as University 5.0 will be seen after 2030s.Yayın Yüksek öğretim kurumlarındaki çağdaş sanat eğitimi müfredatının yeni medya sanatını kapsayıcılığı(İnönü Üniversitesi, 2023-01-02) Kubat, GülçinBu çalışma ile Türkiye’deki üniversitelerde(vakıf/devlet) lisans seviyesindeki çağdaş sanat eğitimi müfredatının yeni medya sanatını kapsayıcılığı araştırılmıştır.

This paper intends to clarify importance of data and its evaluation components, namely Educational Data Mining (EDM), Learning Analytics (LA), Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), as integral part of Fifth Generation Universities (UNIVERSITY 5.0) era in the globalized competitive higher education sector. For this reason, this paper advocates “Rising Value of Data in Contemporary Higher Education” for the university of the new age. Methodology - The study employs a literature review aiming to reflect the new atmosphere and requirements in the higher education system based on selected topics. A comprehensive analysis on the game changer role of data in the higher education institutions was considered.

As a matter of fact, the effective use of Educational Data Mining (EDM) and Learning Analytics (LA) is going on for the last two decades in higher education institutions. Indeed, Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are effective in data management as two impressive game changers for universities changing educational world from the financial perspective. For this reason, it may be argued that the effective use of data and its evaluation components, namely Educational Data Mining (EDM), Learning Analytics (LA), Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are considered as the integral part of Fifth Generation Universities (UNIVERSITY 5.0) era in the globalized competitive higher education sector of 21st Century.Yayın An innovative approach for higher education(Suat Teker, 2024-07-30) Eşkinat, Ali; Teker, SuatPurpose- The purpose of this study is to reflect the position of higher education institutions facing to adapt their strategies to the competitive priorities of the digital transformation era.

Makalede, endüstriyel toplumun ihtiyaçlarına göre şekillenmiş mevcut üniversite yapısının, üretken YZ teknolojilerinin ortaya çıkardığı yeni dinamikler karşısında yetersiz kaldığı savunulmaktadır. ALM hipotezine atıfla, yalnızca rutin bilişsel işlerin değil, aynı zamanda yaratıcı ve üst-bilişsel görevlerin de YZ sistemleri tarafından ikame edilmeye başlandığı vurgulanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, üniversitelerin yalnızca öğrencilerini bilgiyle donatmakla kalmayıp; onların yaratıcı, eleştirel düşünebilen ve muhakeme yapabilen bireyler olarak yetişmesini destekleyen yeni bir eğitim paradigmasına ihtiyaç duyduğu ileri sürülmektedir. Çalışmada, üç temel dönüşüm alanı öne çıkarılmaktadır: öğrencilerin üst-bilişsel yetkinliklerini geliştiren tematik ve bağlama dayalı öğrenme modelleri; YZ araçlarının bireyselleştirilmiş öğrenme süreçlerine entegrasyonu; ve üniversitenin bir platform olarak yeniden kurgulanması. Sonuç olarak çalışmada YZ çağında üniversitelerin hem kendi organizasyonel yapıları hem de pedagojik yaklaşımları açısından köklü bir dönüşüm geçirmeleri gerektiği ortaya konmaktadır.
