Method: The current research is applied in terms of purpose and mixed in terms of data collection method. The statistical population in the qualitative section were experts in the field of management and information and communication technology, which were selected with a purposeful method and semi-structured interviews were conducted with them until theoretical saturation. A total sample of 400 people was selected using random multi-stage cluster sampling method. To collect the required information, the library method was used to review the texts, the field method was used for the qualitative part of the semi-structured interview, and for the quantitative part, the researcher-made questionnaire was used. Findings: findings indicated that 5 effective factors in the training and empowerment of managers were identified. which based on path coefficients; The variable of developing knowledge management policies and strategies in the first place; The variable of training and empowering managers in the second place; The variable of change in organizational and structural culture is ranked third, the variable of management and leadership support is ranked fourth, and the variable of information technology development is ranked fifth. The value of GOF was calculated with a value of 0.592, which is higher than the criterion value of 0.3 and shows the appropriate power of the model in predicting the endogenous current variable of the model. Conclusion: Thus, we conclude that the development of information technology has a positive and direct effect on the education and promotion of knowledge management and information literacy of managers.

Method: The research method in this research is descriptive and content analysis type. The statistical population included all sociology textbooks of the second year of high school. Considering the nature of the research topic and due to the limited statistical population, sampling was omitted and the entire statistical population was considered as a sample. In this research, the unit of image analysis is question and activity, and Shannon's entropy method was used for data analysis. The validity and reliability of the research tool has been confirmed. Findings: The main findings of the research indicate that out of a total of 893 units for the components of cultural competence, individual competence, academic competence, religious competence and environmental competence, respectively, in sociology books of the second year, the importance coefficient is 0.2398., 0.2549, 0.2547 and 0.2518. The highest coefficient of importance in the content of the sociology textbook of the second year of high school is for the component "academic competence" (0.2549) and the lowest coefficient of importance is related to the component "individual competence" with the coefficient of 0.2398. Conclusion: The general result of the content analysis showed that although the characteristics of cultural competence have been paid attention to in the sociology textbooks of the second year of high school, but the amount of attention paid to the components of cultural competence in different courses is unbalanced. In some courses, very little attention has been paid to some components, and this leads to students not being aware of these components. Balanced attention to the components of cultural competence are different from each other. It is necessary that the current state of teaching the components of cultural competence is not comprehensive enough. Manuscript profile -

Method: Considering its nature, the present research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive in terms of survey type. The statistical population included all primary school teachers in Fars province. The sampling method was cluster random sampling. According to Cochran's sampling formula, the sample size was estimated to be 300 people. After obtaining the model of teaching social skills of primary school students, a researcher-made questionnaire was developed based on the main indicators and components of the research, and after determining its validity and reliability, it was distributed among the statistical sample to collect the data required for analysis. In order to analyze the data in the model fit test stage, quantitative methods such as structural equation model, t-test, Kolmograf-Smirnov test and Friedman's prioritization test were used. Findings: The results showed that the causal relationships between the variables were significant and were confirmed according to the fit indices of the model. The assumed relationships between the elements of the social skills training curriculum with the main variable and the relationships of each of these elements with the corresponding components have been calculated, which have been obtained for all significant dimensions. Examining the relationship coefficient of social skills training with the goal element is 0.69, with the content element 0.53, with the education element 0.54 and with the evaluation element 0.48. Also, the beta values for the underlying variables (dimensions of the main indicators) show that all these dimensions have been able to have a meaningful explanation of the main indicators of the research. Conclusion: The model of teaching social skills of students after confirming its validity can be used as a basic model in elementary schools of the country. Manuscript profile -
