The study showed that the institutions of the authors were in the first place as Carnegie Mellon University, University of Memphis and Arizona State University as the most productive organizations due to the number of their publications, while Vanlehn, K. and Chen, C. –M. were the most effective and productive researchers. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the co-authorship network structure was predominantly USA, Taiwan and United Kingdom. In addition, when the keywords mentioned together were mapped, it was seen that the words artificial intelligence, intelligent tutoring systems, machine learning, deep learning and higher education were used more frequently.
