About
What I am interested in, how I work, what my goals are, and what I will not claim about myself.
Open →Site Map
Alongside the education, Academy, opportunities, quiz and atlas links, I have put my own pages and the site’s rules here too. If you are not sure what you are after, look at the table below — I wrote down where to start for each kind of question.
DORUK
My own pages
Education Journey
Which schools I went to from 2018 onwards, the high school programme I gained a place in, and what I do not publish.
Open →Projects
Why I keep guides, examples, work logs and personal project records apart.
Open →Learning Journal
The template where I write down the question, what I made, the error, the feedback and the second version.
Open →Sport and Discipline
Habits I brought from cycling, basketball and swimming into learning.
Open →Graduation 2026
I only put up the photos I was allowed to publish; nothing else is here.
Open →RULES
Where I wrote down the rules
Content Principles
Where I get my information, what I will not claim, how I use AI, and how I keep pages up to date.
Open →Privacy
What this site collects, where your quiz progress is kept, and the rule about photos of children.
Open →Accessibility
What I did to make the site work for everyone, the tests I ran, and what is still missing.
Open →Site Map
The page you are reading: one route into every main section of the site.

Every link, section by section
How I organised the site
There are two things on this site: the pages where I write about my own education and interests, and the Academy — lessons, projects and quizzes in order. The top navigation remains short, while detailed course links are grouped under four learning paths in the Academy menu.
Four learning paths
Code and Build moves from algorithms to software, electronics and robotics. Understand and Investigate connects mathematics, science, data and evidence checking. Stay Safe and Responsible covers digital safety, responsible AI and environmental impact. Design and Share brings together engineering design, accessibility, documentation and open-source teamwork.
How to follow a course
Every section’s main page lists all the lessons in that section. A lesson starts with a map of the section and ends with links to the previous and next one. The project guides here are not work I have completed; when I actually build something and can show the evidence, I add it to the Projects page.
This page and search engines
This page is for people. Instead of piling hundreds of lesson links into one list, I linked to each section’s main page. For search engines there is sitemap.xml, which holds every address and its language counterpart; for AI and research tools there is llms.txt, which sums up what the site is, how I publish and the main learning areas.
