However, considering that the field of architecture is one of the courses with different branches, the need to identify the influential factors for a better visit according to each course is very important. Therefore, in this article, we have tried to examine the role of visiting for courses in three branches of theory-history and workshop and technical theory from the point of view of professors in the form of a questionnaire to examine the importance of the role of visiting for better understanding of students. It is an analytical and descriptive study. The research data were provided to 25 professors under the title of questionnaire and the research was used as the basis of SPSS software and data analysis. The results indicate the importance of visiting professors for workshop courses more than other courses. Also, attending workshop courses requires more class control and is more attractive for professors and students, and ultimately causes students to interact and be interested. The amount of fatigue caused by visiting as a negative component in theory-technical courses is more than other courses, so professors should pay attention to this when visiting in this branch to make the visit more effective and useful Manuscript profile -

The statistical population of the quantitative part of the study included all the physical education teachers of the country (N=34000). The statistical sample in this study was considered to be 380 people according to the Karjesi and Morgan table, and the sampling was done using the random cluster method. The data needed to identify the components and analyze the measurement model were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire, after obtaining validity (face, content and structure) and validation. Cronbach's alpha method (α=0.91) was used to calculate the reliability of the instrument, and exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equations were used to analyze the data. Data analysis was done using SPSS and Lisrel software. Examining and testing the structural equation model of the research showed that the general indicators of fit are in a suitable and favorable condition. So, the antecedent variable of multicultural management has a positive and significant effect on the variable of multicultural management process. Also, the multicultural management process variable has a positive and significant effect on the multicultural management results variable. In addition, the indirect effect of the antecedent variable of multicultural management on the outcome variable of multicultural management was significant, and in the meantime, the variable of multicultural management process played a mediating role. Therefore, the administrators and senior managers and decision-makers of the Ministry of Education should have a special look at multicultural schools and by strengthening and equipping these schools in a fair manner, they should create empathy in the country and prevent suspicions of ethnic discrimination.

Population growth in developing countries leads to this fact that funding sources and budget are divided among more people. The people's demands increase and, subsequently, the price of livelihoods, health, security, education and transport increases as well. Globally speaking, education is subject to this phenomenon. The university, as an institution of higher education, is an ever-changing reality. Despite the significant increase in the number of students applying in this sector, budget allocation to universities lags behind. On the other hand, the nature of this population is changing as well because more middle-aged student groups as well as ordinary students enter into this field. Regarding their diverse family status, living conditions, social and professional needs, time to respond to demands and geographical distance, these students have different needs that affect the structure and implementation of education. As such, higher education sector and those universities that are not actively and professionally involved in this inevitable change as well as those universities that do not have a scientific future studies and planning to face this reality will lose market share. There are evidence that indicate that universities and higher education institutions and private sector will share the opportunity of commercialization of higher education and take advantage of this new opportunity. The necessity and demand for continuous and everlasting learning provides a great profitable and economic opportunity and capacity for universities. Commercialization of higher education in Iran is faced with important and challenging uncertainties. Future studies can examine the commercialization of higher education via investigating the past as well as main changes, trends, indicators and emerging phenomena in this domain. Furthermore, alternative scenarios for the future of commercialization of higher education in Iran in an active confrontation with main environmental uncertainties will be identified thereof.

Although many countries attempt to build up this kind of university; In fact, many scientists have had different interpretations from it. Altbach (2003) argues that World-Class university refers to those institutions which meets excellency standards in global ranking. Becoming a member of the exclusive group of World-Class universities is not achieved by self-declaration; rather elite status is conferred by the outside world on the basis of international recognition. Others argue that what makes a university World-Class one is related to prestige and there would be no consistency between the performance of this kind of university and its name. Some others suggest that having at least one World-Class university is helpful for growth and development of countries; While some opponents question joining to the standards of World- Class universities. This article is a descriptive research which aims to study the characteristics of World-class universities; Concentrating on talents, abundant resources and good governance, Using library research, reading academic articles, white papers, reports of international organizations such as World Bank, OCED, UNESCO, and Websites of World-Class universities. Meanwhile considering World-Class university's characteristics, the researcher consider the different approaches of becoming a member of this kind of university as well as its advantages and drawbacks, by upgrading existing institutions, merging existing institutions, and creating new institutions and through creating research universities as well. In the end, he addresses the implications of World-Class universities for Iranian Higher Education System. Manuscript profile -

However, literature review in Iran shows lack of any model or theoreticaland research framework in this regard.To obviate this shortcoming, the researcher attempted to design an appropriate model, on the basis ofrevision of the relevant literature and theoretical foundations and some prevailing models such as educatingmultidimensional citizen, extending social context of educating citizen, human capital, intellectual capital,social capital, teaching- learning process of educating citizens and paying due attention to values, the sum ofwhich led to the development of an initial model. An attitude measurement scale (a questionnaire) composedof 22 elements was designed to evaluate the initial model. Reliability of the questionnaire was established bytest-retest method. It was calculated 85.46%. A panel of higher education expert (n=30) established thecontent validity. Minor changes/modifications were made based on evaluation of pilot study and suggestionsfrom the panel of experts. Final questionnaire (proposed model) was distributed among the randomlyselected target sample (n=480), composed of university chancellors, (n1=150) deans of faculties, heads ofdepartments (n2=150). Faculty members (N3=150) and higher education experts (n4=30).The collected data and the proposed model was then approved with a scale of 4.79 out of 5 through theapplication of statistical methods of pierson and Donkan coefficient of correlation and was analyzed by usingdescriptive and inferential statistics and Spss software, afterward.The major finding of this study was a model made up of six main components: philosophy, goals, theoreticalfoundations, conceptual framework, implementation procedures, evaluation and reengineering systems.By implementing the proposed model in higher education system, particularly in Islamic Azad Universitybranches , educating professional, knowledgable, responsible, and proficient citizens who will be able tomeet the challenges of knowledge-based society, knowledge economy, and knowledge management in thethird millennium would be actualized.To educate professional citizens, it is required to develop technological, economic, social, intellectual,management and leadership, spiritual, ethical & religious, environmental, global & international, individual,research , political, and cultural competencies through an integrated program in higher education systemparticularly in the Islamic Azad University. It is recommended that the proposed model be applied by the“Office of Human Resource development Studies” after being approved by the University`s SupremeCouncil of Planing, through considering teaching and learning (conceptual, affective, active, andinstituionalization) levels Manuscript profile -

The highereducation of each country is the factor which creates expert workforce and resolves the various problems ofthe country in a scientific way. In our society these factors and other various factors cause the everincreasingdemand for continuation of higher education at the university and entry to this system and create agap between the number of applicants and the existing facilities, encourage creation of new capacities(mostly with planning) because there is a delay between the beginning of capacity-creation and its fruition.At time of delivery of newly-created capacities, again there is not a harmony between the demand andcapacity. Sometimes this causes the existing capacities not to be filled and completed.In this research we have tried to model the structure of capacity-creation for applicants of entering theIranian higher-education system and execute it in the framework of systemic thought and dynamic systemtools in VENSIM software.Accordingly at first the main variables defining this system to a considerable extent are identified andrealized and their relations are codified according to casual loop diagrams. Then its technical structure iscompleted through design of the main model according to Flow & Stock diagram and assimilated in thesoftware. Through execution of model and analysis of its results the status of the higher education system infuture, derived from today's policies and planning, will be specified. At last more important, more effectiveand more principal indexes will be identified. Some variables can be added to this model.

Each hand tools and digital applications, i MoreDigital technologies and the influences of software on the field of architecture, have changed architectural design tools and created questionable situation to deal with hand tools in a new condition with diverse capabilities. Each hand tools and digital applications, in the design process, have their own features and requirements and may somehow challenge the creativity in this process. So that students can take advantage of these technologies to try knowledge, ideas and demands with the mixed abilities. Creativity is a subjective process consisting of the ingenuity and flexibility and design process is based on creative developing that can be expressed by utilizing the tools of architectural design. During the design process, students thought acts like an intricate process of mental activity and interacts between creative and critical thinking. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between creativity, architectural design tools, architectural design process and the success of these tools in the promotion of this ratio. Hence reviewing of the nature, type, status and application design tool in architectural design process and comparing their efficiency analysis to achieve creative defined in this study is very important. This paper has a comparative- analytical approach. So, after reviewing related literature, the research model have been developed. In the next step in a defined statistical community in a field study, the status and application of design tools in all phases of the architectural design process have been compared with each other about their various aspects and in this way the ability of each to promote creativity in problem-solving process in architecture, have been evaluated. The comparison have been carried out in two phases of qualitative (observation, interviews and document analysis) and quantitative (questionnaire) methods in architectural design studios, in academic and professional environments in Iran. Finally, summing up assessments conducted, the results of the research have been obtained with multiple comparisons. Based on qualitative research, taking advantage of different types of software, specially the kinds of synchronicity, have great success in design process and in the final stage of that. This option is relative in the first stage of the process and depends on the knowledge of Individuals towards software and their type. Quantitative analysis also has confirmed this findings and endorsed the active and effective role of software and the need to complete mastery over them, in architectural design process, both in faculties and professional communities. In the current era, the correct use of digital technologies in the process of architectural design, should be organized. Considering the systems development method of phasing models for different layers of architectural design, including digital technologies, and strategic planning for moving towards a dynamic and targeted structures can be helpful to promote skills related to subject, intellectual procedures and motivation in architectural design process.Therefore architectural design education with regard to the role of digital technologies and their comprehensive development, need to keep pace with all levels of strategic and practical plans to promote creativity in the process of architectural design in architectural studios.

45 - The Relationship between Metacognitive beliefs and undergraduate student’s architectural design courses score (Case study: Architectural design 5 students)

On the other hand, Self-regulated learning is aligned most closely with educational aims refers to learning that is guided by metacognition (thinking about one's thinking), strategic action (planning, monitoring, and evaluating personal progress against a standard), and motivation to learn. Researchers found that any development of self-regulated learning is governed by a variety of interacting cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational components. Self-regulated learning refers to the ability to understand and control learning conditions through setting goals, selecting strategies to achieve them, implementing those strategies, and monitor the progress towards them. These factors are the main and most important factors in developing an architectural design too. So you can imagine one with these abilities can become a successful designer and if it is true, the educational system must try to enhance these abilities as a predictor of success as mentioned above. Metacognitive training means increasing individual abilities in the discipline of cognitive processes and their control on their cognitive processes, which plays an important role in improving it, including reasoning, rational thinking, problem-solving and critical thinking. Problem solving is the main trend in architectural design education, so finding the relationship between student’s successes in architectural design, their metacognitive abilities can be a primary indicator of attention to metacognition based teaching method as a valuable method in architectural design education instead of our today’s cognitive method. Therefore, the present study aims at determining the problem of whether there is a meaningful relationship between their meta-cognitive beliefs and the undergraduate architectural design course scores grades and sketch, as the first step towards the formulation of meta-cognitive teaching methods in architectural design. Therefore, a survey was conducted in the form of a questionnaire among 208 of senior students of architecture design lessons among universities in Tehran city. They were asked to complete a meta-cognitive belief questionnaire and a questionnaire related to their cognitive knowledge in architecture and architectural experience as well as their grades in architectural design courses and draw an architectural sketch that graded by three professors in the field of architectural design. The results show that the demographic variables such as age, gender, and economy, as well as the level of their knowledge and experiences in the field of architecture, have no significant relationship with their architectural design scores. However, the results of correlation and regression analysis of data showed that subscales of positive beliefs about worry, cognitive self-consciousness, and beliefs about the need to control thoughts have positive effects on their architectural design scores and there is a significant relationship between the metacognitive ability of the individual and his ability to design the architecture. Instead of its importance in the architectural design process, it has less connection with Architectural sketch scores as a creative process. So the results may use as a hypothesis of using Metacognitive teaching methods in Architectural design courses of undergraduate Architecture students. Manuscript profile -

The teaching of architectural designing in designing workshops (especially in Iran) as a pivot of architecture education was in agreement by all scholars of educational and architectural problems. Training and the process of training in architectural design is one of the most important ways of demonstrating and developing creativity in the educational environment. But there is currently no specific pattern that faculty can effectively use in the lesson of designing architectural lessons. However, the mere reliance on the traditions of architectural education or compliance is not merely a common criterion for academic instruction appropriate to the development of architectural education. This research examines the designing and testing of a prescriptive model (Continuity of creativity model) for the continuity of creativity in architectural design classes. A prescriptive model based on analytical-structural implications of existing objective models and with continuity attitude was arrived to. Then, to test the model, a semi-experimental method was used to test the hypothesis. The statistical society of the study is consisted of all students of plan No.4 of Mahshar Azad University studying in BA of architecture in 2016-17 in Azad University of Mahshahr. Due to the small size of the population, 30 of them were randomly assigned into two groups of control (15) and experimental (15). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS.15. The prescriptive model indices were verified by professors and architects in using Laserl software. The results showed that education is a creative process composed of an educational procedure including phases such as producing of solution idea, recommending and introducing an idea, idea evaluation, reviewing, final adoption, and making decision. As the prescriptive model focuses on the role of educational process method by professor and students` participation in learning process, the effectiveness of developing students` unconscious mind by following brain storm, the evaluation of ideas prior to hasty decision, and considering reviewing in idealization of this model was approved. It results in positive attitude, improving satisfaction, and increasing creativity in learners. The students who were trained according to the prescriptive model had higher satisfaction, more positive attitude toward the course, had a better attitude toward increasing their creativity during the design process than the course based on common approaches. “Continuity of creativity” model can play a more effective role in the in achieving the goal of promoting/ enhancing creativity of students than traditional teaching methods. Students could start, organize, and proceed design process by getting help from professors to achieve a favorable result. This theory can be a guide to practice in organizing architectural design classes to enhance learners' creativity. It is worth noting that this model is not defective and does not claim to address all educational inadequacies in the design of architecture, since this claim requires years of research and the testing of the model and conducting meta-analytical and systematic studies on the findings of numerous studies.

Considering the world experience in academic education and examining the local conditions accompanied to attention to research on analysis of traditional architecture education in this country all in all are helpful in fulfilling a desired architecture education. The present study analyzed the academic architecture education development in the world in three eras: before 1960s, between 1960 to 1996 and from 1996 on considering the importance of three factors of skill, knowledge and wisdom. Design knowledge as sub-branch of knowledge is an effective element in all three factors and design process is also the most prominent axis of architecture education teaching. Considering the capabilities of traditional education and examining academic architecture education process in Iran (more than 70 years) a comparative and contrasting examination between global processes and internal education is presented based on conducted research studies. By comparing three eras of academic architecture education, it is concluded that the first-generation emphasized on the design process and exact definition of how this passed as well as improvement of design knowledge, as artistic or technical way. In second generation, considering the experiences of first era and at the same time with huge research of design in this time, the importance of design process and thought on methodology became the most importance. As the science and technology improved, information networks and global communication become prevalent in third generation, and the concern for acquiring knowledge for design is being faded, applying knowledge design and design thought has gained importance. In addition to the analysis of each era of academic education in three mentioned sections, comparing this analysis and considering time, it can be concluded that proportionate to the role of architect in the professional world, the role of instructor in the design ateliers have seen changes, but not homogenous to the profession. The role of teacher as the complete dominance and power has changed and nurturing a self-centered architect changed to nurturing a facilitator who accept others` opinions and then made decisions. Lack of clear analysis in different phases of education, another point in the architecture process, is also important. Architecture education is to prepare the students for accepting the roles of the future architects as well as reinforcing better and more comprehensive understanding of the environment and community, thus reinforcing the design thinking must gain more attention. After examining three generations of architecture education and analyzing the power points and shortcomings, the present study found that investing on nurturing the design thinking in the students is the main point to fulfill the educational purposes and efficiency in the profession. The quality of investing and attentions to educational methods is really helpful to nurture the design thinking for the activists of the educational domain such as researches, planners, teachers and is particularly path finding for teaching design courses in three sections of basic, general and specialist.

The researchers' experiences indicate that there are potentially active areas for youth and teens to engage in architectural issues that public educations are the most feasible area amongst them. In this study, an elementary experience has been taken to assess the effectiveness of architectural training on teens to deepen their attitude towards architecture. To assess the role of education, people’s common judgment about the elevations of buildings has been used as a tool of inquiry, since elevation alone, is the most visible part of buildings for the public. In the at hand research, different interpretations of building elevations are categorized within six terms so basic elements along with allegorical, behavioral, contextual, memorial and gestalt ordering characteristics are specified as specialized factors. This research is based on participatory picture ordering with semantic differential technique are used as survey to study perception of people about three residential, administrative, and religious uses of various samples. 54 images were used as an evaluation tool in two different categories (City of Damghan local images and scattered building pictures of the whole of Iran) to be sorted due to three architectural functions. Every 18 images were specified for one of the three groups of usages while amongst these 18 pictures, 6 were selected from urban context of Damghan, 6 were chosen from famous recent works of Iranian architects all around the country based on 6 factors of cognitive characteristics of architectural elevation. The other 6 ones were selected from various locations of Iran from more ordinary of less famous buildings amongst architects. Evidence from respondents in Damghan city was considered for assessing teen’s raw mentality. The experimental group was assessed after short-term guidance workshop in the city of Ilam. These workshops were intended as a pilot experience for studying feasibility of public education about a special discourse of architecture. So upon its discovery nature, four proposed types of transferring data to the public were considered: implicit critical debate, explicit critical debate, implicit positive (informational) debate and explicit positive (informational) debate. The results of the field survey and the four proposed training types including implicit and explicit positive debate show that any training could be effective in changing the unique and collective viewpoints of teens towards the goals of architecture and the change in the type of teaching to people brings different directions into public views. It is worth to mention that there were significant differences between the results of our trained people with those who have official architectural education. While there is no considerable content in architectural education about the matter it is not very surprising. The cornerstone of it can be founded in high school textbooks and workshops to accommodate architectural concepts. Manuscript profile -

Cognitive learning styles are more widely used than other styles and are divided into different categories, one of which is the Kolb’s experimental learning style. The purpose of this study is to determine the students' learning styles in undergraduate architecture students based on Kolb's experimental learning theory. This research begins with the original question of whether a dominant learning style can be described as a common learning style for students of architecture, and the question is whether students' learning styles of architecture are appropriate to the needs and goals of the architecture. Current research is a descriptive-analytic study that was done in a cross-sectional study in 2017. The research community of all students of Architecture Engineering of Babol Noshirvani university of technology in the first to last grade that was 85 students. The results of the research show that the distribution of architectural students is in the order of priority of divergent learning styles of 60.5% and Accommodate is 25%. Given that the characteristics of learners with a divergent learning style are more in line with the artistic and humanitarian aspects of architecture, and these learners have a strong imagination and great creativity, it can be said to largely correspond to the educational conditions prevailing in this field. But architecture is a multidisciplinary field, and in addition to the artistic and human aspects, its technical aspect is also important, as well as in architecture design courses that cover half of the undergraduate units, due to the dual characteristics of the divergence and the convergence of the design process, It is necessary to strengthen the learning style of these students and to use the many abilities of divergent students in this field, the professors will try to choose methods to cover the weaknesses of students with opposite styles. It can be said that a successful learner in multidisciplinary architecture should be able to strengthen the ability to move in the whole experimental Kolb’s learning cycle and use different learning styles in different stages of design. Different solutions can be used to achieve this goal. It is necessary for the professors of this field, while recognizing the dominant learning styles of students, to remind students the importance of each of the abilities associated with each learning style in different aspects of architectural design and help them to identify their strengths and weaknesses. Also, by recognizing the differences between different style learners, professors can provide students with the appropriate educational opportunities with different educational methods in time intervals, proportional to the prevailing percentages of each style. Also, performing architectural design projects in a group consisting of different style students is the perfect solution for further engagement and identification of weaknesses and efforts to strengthen them in a team work.

In Iran, one of the major goals of architectural education must be educating architects who know their country and culture well, and are able to do architecture based on cultural and local acquaintances. Architectural Basic Design Education consisting of some courses, lasts just for three semesters, but has a very fundamental role in training architecture students based on cultural and local acquaintances. Accordingly, educating students in relation to their culture, must be conducted in a way that the graduated young architects can solve the regional-vernacular problems of their country and can design generously in the cultural context. Thus, the significant question of this research is that the current basic design curriculum in schools of architecture of Iran to what extent have the capacity of considering the elements of culture and how it is possible to design programs considering the cultural subjects in the context of the current curriculum. This investigation is conducted in two main steps; the first step consists of investigating the curriculum of Basic Design Education in the undergraduate studies of architecture in Iran. Although all architectural schools in Iran follow the undergraduate program of architecture, approbated by High Council of Programing in Ministry of Science and Higher Educations, The main schools have the opportunity to do some changes in their programs. Therefore, the curricula of Basic Design education in three main schools of architecture of Iran are selected to be studied; University of Tehran (consisting of two separate curricula in two Ateliers, 5 and 6), Shahid Beheshti University, and Iran University of Science and Technology. This investigation shows up four different syllabi for basic design studies which are mostly so similar. Comparing these syllabi determines twelve main subjects for basic design education which has been concerned as the main subjects for current research. The second step is dedicated to studying the definition of ‘culture’, and the components of culture based on ideas and notions of cultural theoreticians in Iran. According to this study, Iranian culture has three major components which are ‘world-view and believes’, ‘history’ and ‘geography’. Each of these three components of Iranian culture consists of different subjects which can impact architecture. So, to do architecture in correspondence with cultural context, it is necessary to be familiar with these factors in the field of each cultural element. In final part, the syllabi of Basic Design Education is revised based on the practical detailed syllabi of culture which is determined according to the cultural subjects relevant to architecture. This revision is deducted through the Delphi method, questioning eight professors of Basic Design studios. The result shows that almost in all twelve syllabi of Basic Design Education, potential for considering the cultural components and the relevant subjects exist. Amongst Basic Design syllabi, some have higher capacity for considering cultural subjects. Thus by a precise editing of projects in Basic Design courses, architectural education can be formed more closely to the cultural fundamentals. Manuscript profile -

One subject is the relation between content of education in these countries and the role that planners play. No doubt the education content of what planners need should be in congruence with the professional role and position of planner in the society. In other words, before defining the education content, we should make it clear what kind of planner we intend to train and what do we expect of this planner to do. On these basis, this critical question may raise that what role urban planner essentially play in the developing countries and to what extent the content of education in these countries should adapt to this role? A brief review of the literature indicates that two general roles of active vs. advisory (or technician role) have been dominant in urban planning. Choosing between these two would imply different education content. The education content consists of three elements of knowledge, skills, and values, each of which has its own unique details. The importance of these sub-elements is different in different roles of planners. In the active role, the main knowledge needed is substantive/fundamental, the most important skill is communicative, and it is value or normative based. In the case of technician role, on the other hand, the dominant knowledge is procedural / applied, skills are technical and analytical and values are not important. In this article, the role of urban planner in Iran, as a developing country, will be analyzed, and, then, the most important knowledge and skills which are relevant to this role will be defined. In other words, this study intends to find answers to the following questions: What is the role of urban planner in Iran, as a developing country? What are the most important knowledge and skills needed by urban planners in developing countries? And finally to what extent the related educational contents are prioritized on the basis of actual role of planner? The study of planner role in the developing countries, and Iran as a case study, shows that the dominant view for the planner role is technician or advisory role in the decision-making process and the main focus is on preparing urban development plans at different scales (from national spatial planning to specific detailed plans). Planners are actively involved in physical studies. Reflection of the planner role on the education content in the developing countries shows the dominance of procedural / applied knowledge which are courses with physical orientation such as studios, urban space analysis, introduction to urban planning, urban design methods and GIS (versus environment, economics, social issues), and technical and analytical skills(versus communication skills) and values do not play any role in this regard. These results shows that there is a conformity between urban planner's role and educational content in Iran as a case study for developing countries. Manuscript profile -

This article deals with the relationship between research and architectural design process. The purpose of this research is to use applied one, to create the interaction between theory, practice and optimize the learning process. This research is a practical way of how to use design in research, and it attempts is to answer the question how research is conducted to maximize the use of information or data collected also how does this method affect the quality of student's performance during the design process. The paper attempts to collect data on research on architecture and the relationship between research and the design process in various sources also interpretation that different designers and researchers have done, and to analyze and summarize previous studies, a model for applying research in the training architectural design was achieved then examined this method in the course of architectural design education. This model can provide a new insight into the relationship between research and design process of architecture. In order to apply the type of research in the model, Milburn & Brown classification were used and intrinsic research, case studies and combined studies were investigated in different groups.The test was carried out using a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test with control group. The statistical target in this study can be used to encompass all architecture students who are undergoing architecture design course. In this method, the dependent variable was measured one time before the independent variable was manipulated, and again after. In this research, independent variable, proposed design process and dependent variable, design quality and student performance. The data of the study were gathered by qualified judge panel using functional evaluation and scoring method. The test of this model was carried out at the architecture studio.In this study, 48 master degree students has been analyzes in two semester. The work of students in different groups as well as their projects with them was evaluated and compared five times in different stages of the design process, in order to compare student design performance and design quality. The student's assessment scores were analyzed by ANOVA test. The findings of this study indicates that superiority of using combined research in this specific model. Based on the findings of this study, there was a significant different between the groups that were based on the designed model and the test group showed better performance and quality of students projects based on this model. In selecting the type research, the mean sources of the case group were higher than the library, and the significant difference between the combined group with the library group and case study indicates the superiority of using the combined research. Another issue was the type of that, according to Kolb’s learning classification, learning in the control group is through the learning by experiencing; in the library study group, learning by thinking and in the case group, it was conducted through learning by observation.

First, the principle that education is not merely focused on knowledge transfer, but on the actual learning of learners, attention should be paid to cognitive and non-cognitive abilities; Second, cognitive science emphasizes the activity and perception of learners of the learning environment in the educational process.Constructivist educators designed classroom learning environments based on the principles and assumptions of constructivism.In designing classroom learning environments based on the principles and assumptions of constructivism, attention should be paid to student-related cognitive processes. The purpose of this study was to explain the perception of constructive learning environment based on the cognitive ability of architecture students in teaching design workshops. The method of this research was descriptive-correlation. The statistical population of the study was 600 students of architecture students of Hamedan Technical and Vocational University. A sample of 120 people was selected using GPower software. Constructivist learning environment and cognitive abilities questionnaires were used to collect information. Pearson correlation test and multiple regression were calculated to analyze the data. Simultaneous regression results showed that social cognition ability and non-social cognition ability had a positive and significant role in predicting perception of learning environment. From the dimensions of non-social cognition ability, only decision-making, planning, sustained attention and cognitive flexibility had a positive and significant role in predicting perception of the learning environment. Inhibitory memory and control and selective attention did not play a significant role in predicting perception of constructive learning environment. Whereas in a constructive learning environment, emphasis is placed on teaching itself rather than on how it is taught; Therefore, this training is guided in two contexts of learning and focusing on the student's cognitive ability is emphasized. The required level of scotting is also provided by the learner in two stages of scotting with the instructor with challenging activities and scotching. Given that the real world often presents complex issues and situations to learners, educational environments should provide learners with such issues and situations. At the same time, educators should strive to teach learners the ability to deal appropriately with complex environments.Based on the research findings, the importance of social and non-social cognition abilities on perception of constructive learning environment was proved; Therefore, in this regard, it is suggested that these variables be seen and emphasized in educational planning, and if necessary, they should be taught with the help of psychological and educational strategies. It is also necessary that a coherent and comprehensive training protocol and program be developed to improve and improve cognitive and non-cognitive abilities in the context of experimental and experimental research. Also, considering that constructivism-based education emphasizes most of the cognitive efficiencies of student learning, so teachers should use this educational method as one of the effective teaching-learning strategies to design and draw architectural plans. Instructors can use functional assignments based on cognitive ability as a teaching strategy in different stages of education. These programs provide instruction for educators to enhance learners' learning in all cognitive-non-cognitive abilities. Manuscript profile -

In other words, visual representations in the form of sketches are the most important means of expressing ideas and generating concepts for designers and architecture students. Examining the types and methods of drawing of design students shows that each of them uses a unique method and structure in drawing, and it is also a representation of mental ideas.Due to the wide use of hand-drawings in architecture, its growth and improvement are always the attention of designers. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to examine the factors related to it. Among the variables related to it is the cognitive power of the designer or architecture student in thinking and cognitive processing. Systemic thinking is a high-level thinking skill and one of the complex cognitive processes whose goal is to develop cognitive skills appropriate for the 21st century. Having systematic thinking along with understanding the relationships between social-environmental factors and variables gives students the power and the possibility to use learning opportunities optimally, therefore, students who have systemic thinking, the ability to understand the intricacies. In order to deal with it, it is necessary to examine the cognitive power of the designer or architecture student in thinking and cognitive processing. The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between architectural students' conceptual sketches based on systemic thinking and information processing styles in the design process. The research method is a combination of quantitative (descriptive-correlation) and qualitative (analyzing samples of students' Sketches). The statistical population of this research included all students of the Faculty of Art and Architecture of Hamedan Universities. 162 students were selected as a sample in an accessible and purposeful way and answered the questionnaires of systemic thinking and information processing styles. Conceptual sketches were also evaluated by two judges. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, skewness and skewness statistics) and inferential statistics (Pearson's correlation and path analysis). The results showed that experimental processing style cannot predict conceptual diagrams, but rationalist processing style and systemic thinking can predict conceptual diagrams. According to the findings of the research, the importance of rational information processing style in the design process was proved; Therefore, in this regard, it is suggested to teach this type of information processing style in addition to design education programs in order to optimize architectural education and train designers and promote conceptual sketches. In line with this research finding, which shows the importance of systemic thinking in the design process; It is suggested to teach this type of thinking and processing style in educational planning, and since thinking is a system of complex cognitive processes, it can be taught with suitable and competent curricula. By implementing curricula based on systemic thinking, students can be helped to become knowledgeable, self-directed and innovative people. Acquiring systemic thinking skills in universities can be the basis for the development of systemic thinking and the ability to understand complexity to provide training in people Manuscript profile -

The present article attempts to analyze the relationship between city-dwelling and development of the new middle class in Iran. The urban environment has paved the way for inclination to stratification and development of a hierarchy based on criteria that are related to the social classes. The development of distribution of social work and the growth of socio-economic organizations and institutions, complex network of the spaces and social relations and the urbanization system and its rapid pace in developing countries has brought about vast influx to cities and the emergence of service, bureaucratic, and technocratic sectors, as well. The present research has been carried out taking into consideration the viewpoints of Ph.D. and M.A. students of Islamic Azad University, Sciences and Research Branch in Tehran. The present study has employed library research methods in order to identify the research variables. To produce a researcher-made questionnaire, expert opinion was obtained through Delphi method. The population of the study consists of 16179 people in 1388-89 academic year. Using Cochran formula, 443 people were chosen as the sample by means of simple random sampling technique. The study has been done using questionnaire and is based on the fuzzy logic, the Cronbach’s Alpha Index of which is 0.87. The research findings indicate that city-dwelling has paved the way for the growth of the new middle class in Iran through need for development of specialists and skill-owners, technological services, commercial and industrial capitalization, politico-urban institutions and educational systems. Therefore, it can be concluded that economic, social and cultural atmosphere has had an influential role on the development of the new middle class through attraction of population and through development of employment and need for specialized training. The findings of this article illustrate that urbanization provides an appropriate ground for the growth and development of the new middle class through creation of appropriate space for the development of specialized and service activities, creation of appropriate and inappropriate conditions in industrial and commercial investment, the transition of social relations from traditional to modern, and the development of higher education system. Furthermore, the findings indicate that the development of urban services, having the highest rate and ration, has the most important role in the development and maintenance of the new middle class (1.021). The second most important issue is the specialization of affairs in city (.913) and the last is the overall structure of the city (.913). The development of social urbanization has brought about a change in social hierarchies and people’s lifestyle. Training the individuals in higher education and their employment in bureaucratic bodies causes structural renovation of the society. In addition, the findings of the present research are in line with Fialkov’s view that dividing social work and urban techniques along with the activity of craftsmen and bourgeois pave the way for commerce and exchange because exchange with craftsmen gives birth to a new class.

The teaching of architectural designing in designing workshops (especially in Iran) as a pivot of architecture education was in agreement by all scholars of educational and architectural problems. Training and the process of training in architectural design is one of the most important ways of demonstrating and developing creativity in the educational environment. But there is currently no specific pattern that faculty can effectively use in the course of designing architectural lessons. However, the mere reliance on the traditions of architectural education or compliance is not merely a common criterion for academic instruction appropriate to the development of architectural education. This research examines the designing and testing of a prescriptive model (Continuity of creativity model) for the continuity of creativity in architectural design classes. A prescriptive model based on analytical-structural implications of existing objective models and with continuity attitude was arrived to, then, to test the model, a semi-experimental method was used to test the hypothesis. The statistical society of the study is consisted of all students of plan No.4 of Mahshar Azad University studying in BA of architecture in 2016-17 in Azad University of Mahshahr. Due to the small size of the population, 30 of them were randomly assigned into two groups of control (15) and experimental (15). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS.15 software. The prescriptive model indices were verified by professors and architects in using Laserl software. The results showed that education is a creative process composed of an educational procedure including phases such as producing of solution idea, recommending and introducing an idea, idea evaluation, reviewing, final adoption, and making decision. As the prescriptive model focuses on the role of educational process method by professor and students` participation in learning process, the effectiveness of developing students` unconscious mind by following brain storm, the evaluation of ideas prior to hasty decision, and considering reviewing in idealization of this model was approved. It results in positive attitude, improving satisfaction, and increasing creativity in learners. The students who were trained according to the prescriptive model had higher satisfaction, more positive attitude toward the course, had a better attitude toward increasing their creativity during the design process than the course based on common approaches. “Continuity of creativity” model can play a more effective role in the in achieving the goal of promoting/ enhancing creativity of students than traditional teaching methods. Students could start, organize, and proceed design process by getting help from professors to achieve a favorable result. This theory can be a guide for practice in organizing architectural design classes to enhance learners' creativity. It is worth noting that this model is not defective and does not claim to address all educational inadequacies in the design of architecture, since this claim requires years of research and the testing of the model and conducting meta-analytical and systematic studies on the findings of numerous studies.

Eachhand tools and digital applications, in the design process, have their own features and requirements and may somehowchallenge the creativity in this process. So that students can take advantage of these technologies to try knowledge,ideas and demands with the mixed abilities. Creativity is a subjective process consisting of the ingenuity and flexibilityand design process is based on creative developing that can be expressed by utilizing the tools of architectural design.During the design process, students thoughts acts like an intricate process of mental activity and interacts betweencreative and critical thinking.The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between creativity, architectural design tools, architecturaldesign process and success rate of these tools in the promotion of this ratio.Hence reviewing of the nature, type, statusand application design tool in architectural design process and comparing their efficiency analysis to achieve creativedefined in this study is very important.This paper has a comparative- analytical approach. So, after reviewing related literature, the research model isdeveloped. In the next step in a defined statistical community in a field study, status and application of design toolsin all phases of the architectural design process are compared with each other about their various aspects and in thisway the ability of each to promote creativity in problem-solving process in architecture, is evaluated. The comparisonis carried out in two phases of qualitative (observation, interviews and document analysis) and quantitative(questionnaire) methods in architectural design studios, in academic and professional environments in Iran.Finally, summing up the conducted assessments, results of the research is obtained with multiple comparisons. Basedon qualitative research, taking advantage of different types of software, specially the kinds of synchronicity, havegreat success in design process and in the final stage of that. This option is relative in the first stage of the process anddepends on the knowledge of Individuals towards software and their type. Quantitative analysis also has confirmedthis findings and endorsed the active and effective role of software and the need to complete mastery over them,in architectural design process, both in faculties and professional communities. In the current era, correct use ofdigital technologies in the process of architectural design, should be organized. Considering the systems developmentmethod of phasing models for different layers of architectural design, including digital technologies, and strategicplanning for moving towards a dynamic and targeted structures can be helpful to promote skills related to subject,intellectual procedures and motivation in architectural design process.Therefore architectural design education withregard to the role of digital technologies and their comprehensive development, need to keep pace with all levels ofstrategic and practical plans to promote creativity in the process of architectural design in architectural studios.

Obviously, it is not possible to emancipate problems and achieve an acceptable level of progress, with the exception of the idea of cultural management and proper and sustainable development (Fast al-Kalmam 2005, 99). Because without thinking about cultural management and proper education and investment in this field, Any attempt to escape from ignorance will be in vain. From the time that mankind came into existence and began its social life, the need for the management, supervision and organization of human societies seemed essential. On the other hand, man as an intrinsically social being, in the light of relationships with others, needs proper management education. As a result, one of the pillars of human social life is the management of education in the management of education, human resources are the most important component of each system's components. In culture and education, the only enduring source is man and his potential. Each mine, no matter how big and valuable it is, will eventually end. The only inexhaustible source is human culture and education. Through the teachings of culture and culture management, the rituals, beliefs, values and attitudes, behaviors, knowledge and social skills are sustained and transmitted from generation to generation (Delshad Tehrani, 1382, 173). Thus what today is the mind. The human being is engaged in the management of education, that is, the study of educational, cultural and managerial approaches. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to identify the components of management education from the perspective of the Quran, in order to provide a model for Iranian education. Method: The research method was exploratory combination. In the qualitative part of the study, the method of analysis of the inductive loading method was used. The field of research in the field of qualities was the book of Quran Majid and the collection of Al-Mizan's commentary books. 145 verses and 133 open source were selected as the sample population. In the quantitative part, factor analysis and modeling of the structural equation were used. The statistical population included all the managers, educators of selected provinces, The clergy, and professors, were university professors working in five clusters in the north, south, east, west and center of the country in 94-96. The size of the statistical society was 310 people, according to the provincial capital staffing report. Sampling method, multistage cluster method and sample size were determined according to Cochran table of 162 people. Results: In the qualitative part of the research, the obtained components consisted of 3 main themes of the 7 themes of the organizer and 18 themes that were based on the 98-item log. To assess the validity of this section, the relative coefficient of content validity was used and to determine the reliability of the Holstein coefficient, and in the small part after the factor analysis, 18 variables (basic themes) of the questionnaire based on the data extracted from 162 questionnaires, the KMO test index was 0.883 (Greater than 0.6) (which is indicative of the adequacy of the sampling rate), as well as the sig of the Bartlett test is less than 5%. To assess the validity of the log, the construct validity method and also its reliability were measured using Cronbach's alpha. Conclusion: The results show that the questionnaire items, in total, three factors with total variance explained more than 72.2% able to measure (management education). This shows the validity of the proper structure of the questions in this area. According to the results, it is clear which of the two items is exactly what each item is. Accordingly, based on exploratory factor analysis, the research hypothesis (for examining or contributing to a deterministic-factor analysis) is obtained as follows: Research hypothesis : Based on Quran Majid verses, Emotional factors (EM), Organizational Future (EN), Organizational Performance (EZ), The Variable of the Present Degree of Management Education is explained Manuscript profile -

This research was carried out by a survey method. The statistical sample of this research is 120 teenagers in the correctional center of Yasouj city. The researcher-made questionnaire for preventing the occurrence and repetition of crime and the parenting styles questionnaire of Bamrind (1991) were used.Data analysis was done using SPSS 25 and SmartPLS 3 statistical software.In the present study, Cronbach's alpha coefficient and composite reliability were used to measure the reliability of the questionnaires, and average variance index was used to measure the validity of the questionnaires, and Vagar'sFornell and Larcker's validity were used. The research findings indicate that the relationship between permissive and authoritarian parenting styles has a positive and direct relationship with crime prevention and recidivism, while the relationship between assertive parenting style and crime prevention and recidivism is negative and indirect.The results obtained from the coefficient of significance indicate the significant effect of permissive, authoritarian and decisive educational styles with the prevention and repetition of crime. Considering that there is an indirect relationship between the prevention of crime and the commission of a crime, therefore, the correctional center in Yasouj city should focus on the mental development of teenagers and realistically explain the results of committing a crime to teenagers and its impact on the life of a teenager.

But the question is that what kind of requirements people with different age groups actually have in this particular field. It means that the requirements of environmental education for different age groups should be defined clearly. The first step in this procedure is to find the necessities of education for different age groups. One effective method to categorize people of different ages is to consider their educational levels. This research project discusses the needs and the educational priorities of high school students in the field of environmental studies. Therefore, three hypotheses are being evaluated, which include: 1- Informing the indicated group about the environmental issues will end to their sensitivity toward them, 2- Current educational schedule of the field is adequate for the indicated group, and 3- Teaching the environmental issues in the high school level is more effective. To examine the theories, high school students of four random educational regions of Tehran were chosen to fill in a questionnaire. The number of these students was defined as %7.5 of all students of each educational region by the guidance of the professors. In this way 516 students were taken to fill questionnaire, which their distribution are 134 students from region 1, 206 students from region 4, 69 students from region 7 and 107 students from region 12. Besides, to determine the priorities of educating, thirty researchers, scholars and teachers were taken to be questioned too. This research can be categorized as an applied investigation, and according to the method of data collection, it can also be defined as a descriptive survey which is collected in a “survey research” and in a Cross Sectional way. The main instrument of data collection in this section is applying questionnaire and its validity is the face validity and content and its rationality is estimated with the means of Cronbach’s Alpha Method which is equal to 0.79. Moreover Delphi technique in this research is used to define the priorities of educational requirements of the students and the collected data has been analyzed through the SPSS14.0 software. In this study, the parameters of descriptive statistics such as population, percentage, mean value and standard deviation are used. The parameters of comprehensive statistics like Will Coxon test, chi-square test and Crammers’ V coefficient are also used to analyze the questionnaires and evaluate the theories. These conclusions are derived from this survey: The results of descriptive analyzing of the first theory shows that the high school students believe that the current method of educating environment is inefficient and there is a need of change. The conclusions of comprehensive analysis also indicate the aforesaid truth. Thus, regarding all the factors, the first hypothesis will be confirmed. The conclusions of the second descriptive analysis as well as the results of the comprehensive analysis of the second theory also declare that the current environmental education is not qualified enough and should be changed. In this way the second hypothesis tend to be failed and a change is required. By analyzing the ideas of students descriptively, it can be concluded that teaching environmental issues in the high school level is more effective. Besides, the results of the third hypothesis demonstrate that age has positive effects in awareness, sensitivity and concern about protecting the environment. Although this finding is not sufficient to prove the third theory, the effect of environmental trainings in the high school level will be the most if this idea remains proper in all the educational levels; and to sum up, the third hypothesis will be correct.

The question is how to reach to the comfort degree of internal temperature without using excessive energy at the same time of benefitting the visual beauty of the glass façade. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the quantity of layers of the internal and external of double skin façade on energy consumption. Methods of study: The method of this research is based on causal modeling and simulation. The used equipment was the software of thermostatic simulator called “Design Builder”. In order to reach to the lowest level of energy consumption, different modes of the layers in the double skin façade were analyzed by using the design builder software. Findings: The results revealed that in double skin facades, changes in the number of inner layer are efficient in reducing energy consumption, while the outer layer of glazing does not play any role. Using the double skin facade in southern side is more effective because of the sun radiation on this side. Results: Due to the heating and cooling degree days in Tehran which is equal to 1610 and 1435°C respectively, in the summer, habitability and comfort level of residents were demanded mostly. So in the summer, change in the number of inner layers is more effective than the outer layer. Manuscript profile -

Virtual water management and education in many countries is a measure to overcome water shortage, especially in the agricultural sector. In Iran, virtual water consumption per capita in the agricultural sector is about 20% higher than the world average. This research was conducted with the aim of designing a model of virtual water education in the agricultural sector with the approach of resistance economy and sustainable development in order to inform the users of virtual water and protect the environment, water resources, and sustainable development in the year 2021.Method: The method of this research was a combination. In the qualitative phase of the research, in order to identify the main and sub-components of the model, the technique of grounded theory was utilized. A semi-structured interview method was conducted to collect data in this phase. The purposeful snowball method was applied in the qualitative phase for sampling. The statistical population of the quantitative part included professors of related universities, experts, and managers of the executive organizations of the Ministry of Agricultural Jihad. According to the statistics and information obtained, the total number of contacts was 360. The sample size was determined by Cochran's formula of 181 people. A researcher-made questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale was designed to collect data. Descriptive statistics measures (mean, standard deviation, variance, frequency, and percentage) were calculated for data analysis in the quantitative phase, and confirmatory factor analysis was employed in the inferential phase.Findings: The results of comparing the mean value of the components obtained from the test (t-test) illustrated that there is a significant difference of 1 percent between the current and desired means in all components and the current state of virtual water management education is not desirable. The validity of the questionnaire constructs was calculated by the convergent validity method at the level of 0.49 and the reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by the ordinal coefficient alpha at the level of 0.81. The qualitative findings of the research revealed that 11 components and 37 sub-components were the components of the virtual water education model in the agricultural sector. Based on the standard factor loadings of qvh(γ), the content components of virtual water education (0.97), methods of virtual water education (0.96), and principles of virtual water education (0.92) are respectively, the most substantial in explained the model of virtual water education. Moreover, the confirmatory factor analysis of the components illustrated that the identified components had sufficient factor loading to predict virtual water education in the agricultural sector.Discussion and Conclusion: The fit indicators of the education model in the agricultural sector illustrated that the developed model has a good fit and in addition to awareness and behavior change, the model can be a road map for the trustees and agents of education activities for virtual water users in the agricultural sector. Implementing virtual water education through the prepared model can be expected to prevent the wastage of water resources in the agricultural sector and protect natural resources. Furthermore, based on the upstream documents, it is an opportunity to attain modern agriculture, resistance economy, sustainable development, and environmental protection. Manuscript profile -

After that, examples of Arabic and Persian prose and verse have mentioned it until the end of the ninth century. Rumi and Attar have also recreated the verse of this narrative in Persian literature in a creative way.This story which has mentioned in two different narratives leads to the same moral conclusion which is "loyalty and commitment". Therefore, examining the sources of this story not only acquaints posterity with the experiences of different ethnic groups, but also preserves and records the culture and history of the predecessors .This study not only finds the sources and compares the Arabic and Persian sources of the narrative, but also examines its narrative elements such as theme, plot, character, dialogue, perspective and scene, and identifies how Persian verse sources are similar to the old Arabic sources. The most important results of this study which is based on comparative analogy is that, the theme of the story is the same in all the Arabic and Persian sources, and Persian verse anecdotes have arranged the same theme with a different structure with the inspiration of ancient sources.

This psychological variable has received a great deal of impact from teaching barriers, which varies in accordance to the amount of change in teacher support strategy. Therefore, in this study the relationship between teaching barriers and work engagement as mediated by the supportive strategies of female high school physical education teachers in Tehran was investigated. This study, using a descriptive-correlational approach, examined the opinions of female physical education teachers in 19 districts of Tehran, as a statistical population (1071 people). According to Cochran's formula, 387 people were sampled, which were randomly selected in a stratified-proportional manner. A strandard questionnaire was used to collect the data. To assess the validity of the research, face validity a type of content validity assessment method was used. For this purpose, the questions were reviewed, checked and modified by 30 educational experts in three stages and were finalized in the last stage. To measure the reliability of the questionnaire, Cronbach's alpha, which is a kind of internal consistency was used, in which the average was calculated to be 0.883 for our research variables. Pearson and Eta correlation coefficients and ANOVA analysis of variance were used to test the research hypotheses. Also, to perform the calculations, we took advantage of softwares Excel 2017 and SPSS 21. Findings showed that teaching barriers affect teachers' work engagement by changing the type of teacher support strategy and teaching barriers do not directly affect teachers' work engagement. Based on the results, it was proposed that, in order to address the issues of teaching barriers in the examined schools, first structural barriers should be addressed, then cultural barriers and finally material barriers, and since teachers who use communication-logical, social-logical, communication-emotional, and social-emotional support techniques in that order have lower job commitment, it is necessary to pay special attention to the employment of these individuals and in the end it was suggested that in order to increase the job power of teachers, teachers use more communication-emotional method.

Another important issue in Islam is modesty that means moderated inner power of passions and instincts. The philosophy of ordering the good and exhorting against forbidden is human education. Its incidental goals are the responsibility of a person who orders the good and exhorts against forbidden to follow God's command and holy nature, promotion of goodness, and prevention of obscenity in society. To order the good and exhort against forbidden have different levels; if heartfelt denial isn't effective, verbal mention should be done. If verbal mention isn't effective, practical action and manual denial should be done. This shows that Islamic lawmaker determines to eradicate the base of sin and announce the modesty in society. Social institutions should provide conditions for ordering the good and exhorting against forbidden and also increase people's awareness about it by education and information program.

Hence, this study set to investigate the pedagogical roles of Iranian non-native teacher educators (TEs) in educating preservice and in-service EFL teachers from the viewpoint of language institute managers. To this end, following a qualitative survey research design, a total of 30 institute managers were selected via the snowball sampling method and engaged in semi-structured, in-depth interviews. The participants’ responses were voice recorded and then thematic analysis was conducted to extract the main themes and subcomponents. The findings of the study showed that institute managers assigned three main instructional roles to TEs: holding preservice/in-service teacher education courses, revising the assessment system, and designing effective language syllabuses. Accordingly, language institute managers believed that effective TEs should not only be responsible for running teacher education courses but also engage in the evaluation process by checking and revising the testing procedures and designing and developing relevant instructional syllabuses in cooperation with educational managers of the institutes. The pedagogical findings of the study are also discussed. Manuscript profile -

Method of the research was descriptive and field-searching. The statistical society consists of all the male and female teachers and students of science education in the teacher training centers of Tehran province. Since the population of the society was only 300 people, the sampling was carried out by the WRT sampling method. For data collection, the researcher designed a 31-component questionnaire. The content validity of the questionnaire was assessed by experts and its construct validity was assessed through exploratory factor analysis. The reliability of the questionnaire was assessed by Cronbach's alpha method (α=0.84) was eventually verified. All the data were analyzed via the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, independent t-test, and ANOVA variance analysis in SPSS software. The results indicated that student teachers of experimental science education do not have a correct and sufficient understanding of the nature of science and its components -- philosophical foundations of science, different steps of an empirical method, scientific achievements – and there is no significant relation between the teaching experiences of the teacher students and their understanding of the true nature of the empirical science. In addition, there is a significant correlation at p ≤ 0.01 between the student teachers’ performances and their understanding of the nature of science, and the sex of the student teachers was also significant in understanding the nature of science.

For this purpose, using random cluster sampling, two elementary male schools were selected from the third educational district in Isfahan. Each of these elementary schools had two fifth grade classes (n = 108). 75 students were randomly divided into five fifteen-member groups consisted of mental imagery group, think-aloud group, written representation group, motor representation group and control group. All the students of five groups were given a pretest consisted of 12 verbal math problems and Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices (SPM). No significant difference was observed between the mean scores gained by the students of five groups on the pretest and Raven's intelligence test. Each of the experimental groups received 10 forty five-minute training sessions .The control group received no instruction. After completion of training sessions, all of the students took the verbal math problems posttest, which was parallel with the pretest. The one- way analysis of variance on the differences among the students' scores on the pretest and the posttest showed significant differences of the groups. Tukey follow-up test was used to compare the paired group means. The students of written representation group and mental imagery group showed better performance on the posttest in comparison with the control group. The results indicated that written representation and mental imagery methods have a positive impact on the students’ performance in verbal math problem solving. Manuscript profile -

The semi-experimental method of the immediate post-test type along with a control group was applied in this research. The statistical population of this research consisted of 12 preschool students in a kindergarten in Tehran and the statistical sample (6 people) were selected purposefully as the experimental group. The experimental group received 15 sessions of philosophy teaching and in the last session, both the experimental group and the control group were filmed. The video, then, was given to 5 experts in order to reply to the respective questionnaires (Ranking students based on their research sprit). The Collected data, using descriptive statistical methods (Frequency Distribution Table, Graph of a frequency distribution, Dispersion and central indices) were analyzed. The parametric t-test for two independent groups (Due to distanced scale measurement, normality of the distribution, and existence of two independent groups) and non-parametric Mann–Whitney U test were, also, used for testing the research hypotheses. What being indicated from the findings was that that teaching philosophy to children not only has a great impact on the students' cognition (curiosity, question making, reasoning, critical thinking, creativity, interest in experimenting and experiencing) but also has a high effect on their emotion (interest in clarity, enthusiasm, partnership, independence, self-assurance, self- assertion). In general, implementation of this program has had a great impact on the research spirit of these children. Manuscript profile -

These words have defined five positions in discussing about teaching and learning in the modern world. The words are including: mind, democracy, oppression, socialization, anecdotes and stories. The first three terms are respectively associated with the names of Frederick Herbart, Dewey and Paulo Frère, that have been raised in the United States, Latin America and Africa. Socialization by using the knowledge tool is relevant to Marxism, which has been interpreted mainly in Brazil, France and Italy. The term of stories and anecdotes is also used by different people in different parts of the world and is the term considered by proponents of modern pragmatism. Many experts believe that perhaps the most significant development in American philosophy in the recent times could be the renaissance in pragmatism or the neo-pragmatism. Due to the raised cases, the main purpose of this article was the evaluation of educational theory and curriculum approach from the perspective of the modern pragmatism. The study was a cross-sectional research. Previous studies have shown that the foundations of modern pragmatism should be searched among the ideas of people such as Rorty, Quien, Pathnam, Bernestien, West, Davidson, Dewey, Shusterman and Brandon. Neo-pragmatism emphasizes on principles such as rejection of fundamental epistemology, language, uity of knowledge, social cohesion instead of pure objectivity and education for democratic wise citizen. From the perspective of neo-pragmatism, an educational theory should be practical with three features, descriptive, explanatory and specific. They have been mentioned five steps for training including the anecdote, linking an anecdote with the issues of life, creating new anecdote, reviewing the story and comparing it with national and collective stories. They have introduced the best curricula approach for pre-university as an integrated approach and project-based approach for the time after the university. Manuscript profile -

The study benefits from the descriptive method in identifying the types of questions and, also, content analysis method to investigate how the questions are used in the books. To do so, the question type sentences were the units of analysis. Because of the limited number of the statistical population, elementary science text books, no sampling method was applied. To collect the data, content analysis was used, whose validity was confirmed by the experts of the educational science. Its reliability, also, was calculated by William Scott’s formula as %81. Based on the findings, it is concluded that in the textbook of the first grade of elementary school, the concave and individual-oriented questions were of the highest frequency and the result-oriented questions were of the lowest amount. In the textbook of the second level, also, concave and background questions were highly frequent whereas, the result-oriented questions were the lowest. Taking the questions of the textbooks of the third and fourth level into consideration, the analysis presented the superiority of the concave and practical questions over the questions with result-orientation, possessing the least amount. Finally within the scope of the textbook at level five, the concave questions and those with subject orientation showed the highest frequency, and the result-oriented along with the predictive ones were found to be the least. The result of the Chi-square test, also, showed that there exists a significant relationship between the observed values and the expected ones in all experimental science textbooks in primary school.

The aim of this article is to study and compare the efforts made by curriculum planners in different universities around the world for the internationalization of the higher education. This comparative – analytical study investigates different approaches for the internationalization of curriculum of the higher education (including strategies, programs, activities and methods of teaching and learning) in countries like the United States of America, Canada, Australia, and Japan. Findings include strategies, programs, activities for internationalization of higher education curriculum learning and teaching methods in each country. Comparison of four strategies of the United States, Canada, Australia, and Japan showed that internationalizing the curriculum and learning strategies by embedding international content into their existing curricula is their most important strategy and teacher and student exchange programs receive less attention.

To achieve this goal, conceptual and critical analysis methods have been used. Foucault, as a postmodernist theorist, proposes a kind of education in which the issue of culture and justice is important. While criticizing power relations in educational systems, he has provided significant implications for multicultural education. In his view, the basis for education should be based on democratic and non-authoritarian methods, and the interests of the members and various components of society, including other cultures, should be taken into consideration. Foucault criticizes the textbooks as functions of history, society, and power, and believes that texts have always been used as tools of power. By examining Foucault's educational opinions, it can be admitted that his implications for educational and cultural justice will be. Nevertheless, criticisms can be made, such as the criticality of the revelation of reality, the emphasis on epistemological relativism, the divergence of education policies, the lack of presumptions in the discussion of discourse, and the lack of solutions to educational issues.

In this way, various aspects of these issues were tried and presented with respect to the context of the institution of university in Iran. The present study was conducted within the framework of the qualitative approach and using grounded Theory research method. For data collection from participants, in-depth and informal interviews were used. Selection of information media of the research was done purposefully and using sampling strategies with maximum variation and theoretical sampling the research media included 19 faculty members of comprehensive universities in Tehran. Data analysis was performed in three stages of open, axial, and selective coding. According to the findings, the phenomenon of bullying in faculty members' relations in Iran's higher education has verbal and social dimensions (Phenomena). This phenomenon has arisen due to organizational and individual circumstances (Causal Conditions) and resulted in reactions such as avoidance, conflict (Strategy). These reactions have been affected by the responses of the authorities, the persistence and common beliefs (intervening conditions), structure and academic culture (context), resulting in occupational, personal, social and economic vulnerability(Consequences). The function of education in this context is defined in three levels of good teaching (based on individual experience), scholarly teaching (based on the integration of content knowledge and pedagogy), and the scholarship of teaching (Teacher Education Publishing). From the faculty point of view, according to the phenomenon of bullying, teaching processes based on personal experience are organized, teacher empowerment and dissemination programs are not foreseen.

Although artistic education implies certain activities, it seems that aesthetic education seems to have been overlooked as a phrasebook in the educational system of the country. A comprehensive conception of this kind of education in the country's educational system has not been made especially from the Islamic perspective. In this study, Mulla Sadra's philosophical views have come to be the subject of a unanimous approach. The approach of feeling and meaning is based on a linguistic unilateral approach. Therefore, in this research, the necessity of changing the approach of artistic education and aesthetics to the approach of feeling and meaning as the main approach and subject-centered approach is considered as complementary approach. The necessity of changing the approach of artistic education and aesthetics to the approach of feeling and meaning as the main approach and subject-based approach as a complementary approach is explained. The research method is documentary and descriptive-analytical, critical and inferential. Manuscript profile -

The method of this study was synthesis research. The required data were collected by searching library resources and articles in ERIC, ProQuest, PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, springer Magiran, and Irandoc databases. In order to search domestic and foreign databases, the keywords of professionalism, curriculum, professionalism curriculum, medical education were used. The articles and sources reviewed were from 1998 to 2020. In the final review, the most relevant sources included 53 articles that were reviewed and extracted in order to achieve the purpose of the present study. 270 concepts were extracted and grouped into 22 concepts. Finally, the concepts were categorized into the final 6 concepts of professional commitment, caring behavior, virtue-based professional commitment, lifelong learner, ethics and law-based, professional character and type of curriculum. The results show that if certain professional beliefs and behaviors are not institutionalized in today's students during the internship, it can reduce the sensitivity of students' professionalism and thus make professional decisions difficult for future physicians. Therefore, the role of formal education in professionalism is important in this regard, considering the role of the hidden curriculum. Manuscript profile -

The initial model was formulated of data collected from semi-structured interviews with 12 experts in flipped learning. The initial model then evaluated, validated and modified based on data collected from interviews with seven number of those experts. In the next step, sixth grade science lesson plans designed based on this model and through focused group meetings with ten elementary school teachers familiar with flipped learning. The initial model modified according to teachers’’ feedbacks when designing lesson plans. The developed lesson plans were implemented during the school year to evaluate the model based on the researcher's observations and students' feedback. The insights obtained of this evaluation were also used to improve the model. The flipped learning design model developed from the present study describes the process of instructional design in three stages including analysis and needs assessment, design and development, implementation and evaluation. In the first stage, the learners' characteristics, curriculum documents, and situation / environment are analyzed in order to gain insights that are important to illuminate the next steps. The decisions about instructional objectives, organizing instructional materials and resources, and designing the environment are made by the next stage, design and development. The third stage is the implementation and evaluation stage which includes a set of activities that are done in three conditions including before the classroom (such as sharing instructional resources and materials, and the expectations from learners), during the classroom (such as assessment of assignments and tasks, and providing feedback) and after the classroom (such as introducing additional sources and materials and providing questions for reflection). The flipped instructional design developed from this research has the potential to applied by instructional designers and teachers as a practical guide. Manuscript profile -

For this reason, the existence of curriculum templates can help university professors and curriculum planners in designing and compiling curricula in a way and in making decisions. The model in the development of university curricula is interpreted as a detailed plan to achieve the goal. For this purpose, the present research has been conducted with the aim of examining the curriculum patterns of higher education in Iran. The above research has been done with a systematic literature review and qualitative content analysis technique (theme analysis) among sources and documents collected from scientific databases. The results of the research show that the focus of the researchers in providing models was mostly on Tyler's four elements and less on the nine and ten elements of the curriculum, and the macro dimensions of the curriculum in higher education have been neglected. Designing the proposed models (providing the framework) is one of the important activities of curriculum planners and decision makers, and university educations are also forced to design and implement the proposed models (determined frameworks) of the curriculum. But the focus of attention that researchers should pay more attention to is the extent of attention to the larger dimensions of the curriculum and not the elements and content of the curriculum.

To achieve this purpose, the opinions of three groups were studied including the senior managers in government, the figures and experts in the field of planning and management, and administrative managers and employees. The last two groups were selected using judgment-sampling method. The research method was "applied research" in terms of purpose and so it was "content analysis", "survey research", and "correlational research" in terms of data collecting method. In addition to the review of the related literature, the desired data was gathered by analyzing the interview transcription of the senior managers as well as questionnaires. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed to analyze the data and draw conclusions. According the findings, the obstacles to executing the development plans in the higher education system originate from its functional structure. The obstacles include: the lack of conformity between the structure and the particulars of the development plans, between the structure and the environment in which the plans carried out, and between the structure and the plans goals, which all resulted from functional structure of higher education system and its limits. Finally three strategies are proposed to overcome the structural obstacles to executing the development plans in the higher education sector. In order of importance, these strategies include participative culture, systematic or synthetic management, and matrix structure. On the basis of regression model, the proposed strategies have correlation with each other and play an effective role in removing the obstacles. Manuscript profile -

In similar conditions, the challenges of education and problems after graduation in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are more obvious. Although today there is a large amount of research on how to deal with the issues related to the quality of education, these methods were generally not successful and most of those who finish a degree in the university, are usually unprepared. They are not required to enter the labor market. In this article, a hybrid method called HEAL is introduced, which is especially effective in STEM education. This proposed approach can be considered a combination of teaching and learning and is a transformation that leads a person from being a mere student to becoming an active learner. The main idea of this approach is based on the fact that in university, a student is expected to be a researcher of knowledge, unlike a student who acquires knowledge through education.Method: hybrid education and learning (HEAL) is a skill-based, time-based method of instruction that combines face-to-face learning and virtual learning. Proficiency-oriented, time-based education provides a model in which students who fail to earn a passing grade or complete a course during a semester are given time to demonstrate competency.Findings: The basic philosophy of HEAL is to prove the skills and abilities of students, with an approach similar to the driver's license test. This means that if the test is failed, the learner is given an opportunity to improve and try another way to demonstrate mastery. The financial capability of universities is the most important factor in making this approach operational. However, this financial burden is negligible compared to course repetition, delayed graduation, and sometimes even more academic failure. HEAL removes the fear of exams and failure and increases the love of learning.Discussion: The combination of face-to-face and virtual learning can become a wider trend in the university. While we must remember the fact that nothing can replace face-to-face training and the need for student-faculty interaction. In this research, a method for teaching in universities was discussed, in which time-based and competency-based education are combined with face-to-face and virtual learning, which can be a successful approach with the aim of reducing academic retention.

We are now on a path where education is moving towards new technology, among which are augmented reality and virtual reality technologies. Accordingly, virtual reality and augmented reality technology can help students learn by providing educational materials and teachers as a teaching platform. With the help of these technologies, teachers can show anything in the classroom to students and thus engage them much better with lessons and education. The exact thing that is considered in divergent education; students have a role in the knowledge process of participation and active learning (student-centered).Method: The research method was a systematic review of research findings on the applications of virtual reality and augmented reality. Thus, the articles of the years (2016 to 2021) from databases (PubMed, Google scholar, science direct, Elsevier, Scopus, Springer, SID, Civilica) with the keywords "virtual reality", "augmented reality", "virtual education" was investigated.Findings: The evaluations of the articles showed that virtual reality provides outstanding visualization that cannot be achieved in the traditional classroom, and augmented reality experiences are an effective way to stimulate the presence and participation of students in online and hybrid education. Discussion and conclusion: virtual reality/augmented reality in the educational field has created interaction with virtual objects in the real environment. Therefore, in the era of the global pandemic, when the entire educational process is transferred online, virtual reality and augmented reality technology can create physical interaction between the learner and the environment, and engage the student's senses, and increase information and experience learning, and research They demonstrated improvements in learning, student engagement, motivation, and collaboration with educational environments enriched with virtual reality/augmented reality applications. In general, the results of this research are of great importance for the application of these technologies in the educational field, so that students' learning can be useful with both technologies.

The statistical population of the research in the qualitative part includes the assistant professors of physical education of the universities of medical sciences in the country, professors with books or research in the field of student sports, high-ranking people of the National Federation of University Sports, and for the quantitative part of the research, all students of medical sciences universities throughout Iran as a community were studied. The sampling method in the qualitative part included the purposeful sampling method (deliberate or judgmental), and the sampling was done using the snowball technique until the theoretical saturation was reached; which was obtained after interviewing 19 people. In the quantitative part, cluster random method was used and finally 400 people were selected as a sample. The data collection tool was used in the qualitative part of the semi-structured, in-depth and exploratory interview; The research audit was done with the methods of believability, transferability, reliability and verifiability. To analyze the data, open, axial and selective coding was used. However, in the quantitative part, a researcher-made questionnaire from the qualitative part of the tool was used. Content validity was measured and confirmed by 10 expert professors in a corrective manner and in accordance with the objectives, and the reliability of the questionnaire was estimated through Cronbach's alpha. Maxqda, SPSS and Amos software were used for the analysis.Results: The results showed that the codes extracted from the interview in 6 main categories are equal to 191 codes, the causal conditions are equal to 7 components and 27 codes, the central phenomenon is equal to 3 components and 11 extracted codes, the background conditions are equal to With 7 components and 36 extracted codes, intervention conditions are equal to 8 components and 41 extracted codes, strategic conditions are equal to 8 components and 43 codes, and consequential conditions are equal to 5 components and 24 extracted codes. Also, the results of structural equation modeling showed that the causal factors on the central phenomenon (r=0.84); the central phenomenon on strategic factors (r=0.75); background factors over strategic factors (r=0.29); Interfering factors have a positive and significant effect on strategic factors (r=0.55) and strategic factors on outcome factors (r=0.28) (p≥0.05).Conclusion: The development of university sports can guarantee the health of students and one of the effective factors in the development of sports in the country. Accordingly, the role of universities is important for the development of sports in the country. Identifying the platforms and factors for the development of sports in universities, especially universities of medical sciences, in addition to improving the health of students, improves the social status of students. What seems to be very important and necessary is the formulation of macro goals, policies and implementation strategies of university sports for students of medical sciences universities in a targeted manner and in accordance with the fourth development plan and the comprehensive system of physical education and sports. be the country Finally, by applying this model, we can hope that a tremendous change will be achieved in the field of improving the social status of medical students.

The design of such spaces is a paramount concern in children's education. Empowering children to articulate their preferences in educational settings can significantly contribute to the architectural design process, resulting in more suitable learning environments. This study explores the architectural elements of collaborative educational spaces from the perspective of preschool children. A total of 212 randomly selected children from across the country participated in the "Anna P. Taylor" educational program, emphasizing a cooperative approach. The study identifies and analyzes essential architectural components required for the development of collaborative educational environments tailored for preschool children, including considerations related to space quality, style, lighting, colors, sounds, and materials. The research employs content analysis, questionnaires, student interviews, crafts, and paintings to scrutinize these components. The findings underscore the significance of color, texture, materials, geometric shapes, volumes, and design approaches in the eyes of children. These factors are categorized as internal and external architectural elements within educational spaces, and the insights gained from this research can guide educational space designers in catering to children's needs. This, in turn, facilitates enhanced learning experiences and the creation of more engaging and efficient spaces for young learners. Manuscript profile -

The present research is a fundamental research and data acquisition tool. Data analysis is conducted through the classification and interpretation of the information obtained. From its very beginnings, man has always been a curious and inquisitive creature looking for goals to reach him, but what a destination is, where it is, and who it is has been an important issue that makes people more curious and purposeful. The issue of mystical intuition began from the very beginning of Islam and with the advent of the Qur'an, and it was raised as a way of communication between man and God. But the wisdom of the intellect or the general wisdom and the prudence of the praise. Accordingly, Rumi's poems were examined. Rumi describes his creation as love and describes the hidden language of phenomena as a subtle whisper that emanates from passion and passion. In his view, the glorification of the beings and their movement is a manifestation of love, and love is the tendency of the beings. In the case of man, Rumi introduces love as the natural and indisputable right of man, and begins his love for Masnavi by praising this love. Because he knows that this divine gift can not be described as human. He believes that the structure of human beliefs is shaped by his moral characteristics and that the moral contaminants of human knowledge are distorted. The findings of the research show that the methods, steps and principles of moral education from the point of view of Rumi are as follows: self-hypnosis, self-imbibition, blessing, cultivation, and avoidance of imitation. The stages describe repentance, patience, patience, faith, submission and submission, poverty and mortality, and principles including perfection, cultivation, counseling, avoidance of obedience, avoidance of unconsidered generalization and individual differences in human beings.

Therefore, the purpose of this study is to know the status and evaluate the performance of this system on the students of Qorve city in Kurdistan province. Research methodology: The method of this research is qualitative. Semi-structured interviews with students and teachers who had more than two years of experience using this system were used to collect data. The interviews continued until theoretical saturation was reached, during which 8 teachers and 17 students were interviewed in the target city and villages. The validity of the research was obtained in consultation with the relevant experts and the reliability was obtained using the retest method. Findings: The results of the interviews indicated 41 core categories under 11 key categories as follows: Weakness of the internet infrastructure and lack of smartphones, decrease in team work and social interactions, educational failure of students, change in educational-research attitude, decline of teachers' supervision and lack of accurate assessment of students, decrease in trust and social solidarity, causing physical, mental and behavioral injuries, increasing creativity and skill, lack of appropriate culture in the use of virtual space, strengthening self-reliance and increasing the sense of responsibility and complementary role like the Shad network. Conclusion: Familiarity, awareness and of course enough virtual space interactions have become a vital issue especially for education in the contemporary globalized world. Such interactions will undoubtedly lead to the degradation of the quality of education and will result in training students who graduate degrees with high GPAs but without enough qualitative scientific content, if proper software and hardware platforms are not created and if the development of forecasts and background knowledge in this regard are ignored.

In contrast to the authoritarianism that was posed in the modern and earlier years, dialectical and discursive methods have been endorsed by postmodernists, this method is well-known for the creative development that is important in the teaching of architecture. The purpose of this paper is to enhance the quality of learning of architecture education by utilizing postmodern teaching methods. This method seems to be much more suitable for teaching architecture and educating designers. The research method is a descriptive-analytical method, in addition to the description of postmodern education and programming, we have analyzed and explained methods for improving the quality of architecture education. Data collection is based on documents, literature and library studies. The theoretical framework was developed based on the theory of anti—authoritarian education and postmodern education. Finally, strategies to improve this are stated. The results of the article do not seek to define the overall structure in education, but by defining multiple structures in architecture education to increase flexibility and, of course, increase the quality of architecture education. By decentralizing the rules and changing the educational topics in different provinces and climates based on different construction methods, better architectural education is achieved. self-creation is one of the main goals of architecture that can be promoted in a postmodern way, decreasing the focus on the teacher's power and focusing more on the individual ability of students in architectural studios. The role of the teacher is visible as an expert and technician, and through this, the student gains a more complete knowledge of himself and his abilities and completes the path of creativity.

510 - deschooling school; Phenomenological study of the role of school in political education from Heidegger's point of view

It seems that the main reason for such perceptions is the lack of a correct understanding of the phenomenon of school. Utilising Heidegger's thoughts is a way to pay attention to school as a phenomenon so that while putting aside the prevailing structure of schools, we do not fall into the path of radicalism and deschooling society - as Ivan Illich put it - but rather take the school out of the scientific institution and define it as a social institution deschooling the school. It is the deschooling of the school itself that can actualize the true capacities of the school. From Heidegger's point of view, as long as the school is considered a scientific institution, it takes away the opportunity for students to speak, while the school is a place for learning to think, by providing the opportunity for students to speak. The school is an arena, an arena where the school and the teacher, by creating the opportunity for students to learn and speak, play the most important role in giving authenticity to their lives.

Because in addition to the right to education in schools, there are other rights that are equal to the right to education in terms of value and efficiency. The right to security, the right to marry, and the right to freedom of behavior are among these rights. At the point of implementation, these fundamental rights may disturb each other. Therefore, it is necessary to provide conditions so that the school administrators, as it should be, provide the students with all the fundamental rights. The research method is qualitative and library-based. At the end of the research, by analyzing the facts in schools, we will realize that although there may be a conflict between the rights in the implementation phase, this conflict is not insoluble. It is possible to establish an interaction between all of them without endangering some rights, and while explaining how to resolve this conflict, it is possible to help school administrators to establish a balance between these rights.

Since information technology can’t any more be regarded as an advantage, the importance of human resources as a potential capital capable of facing with national and international problems, seems to be vital? For encouraging innovations, initial steps toward freedom of thought and the so-called "software movement" has been started. But what is necessary is a continuing and progressive movement. Paying special attention to this issue thus needs appropriate educational policy in higher education. Unfortunately, our present economical situation, the phenomenon of educational impurities in universities, and the problem of "brain drain", are not good symptoms when evaluating the status of science .Scientific and academic norms in society are potentially vulnerable at present time and universities, more than anything, look like agencies just for producing academic degrees. Because of vulnerability of status and value of science, the higher education system in our country has been damaged. Moreover, without motivated students for learning, adequate output for satisfying development demands is not achievable. Higher education is in crisis.

Child sexual education requires parents to know when, what and how to pass it on to their child. Some parents think that it is better to keep the child away from any sexual issues so that sexual thoughts do not develop in their minds, but sexual questions inevitably arise in the minds of children and the ignorance of parents and their inability to answer some questions of children cause children to get confused about sexual issues. Therefore, the most important issue for them is to grow up in a safe environment physically, mentally and emotionally. In the meantime, due to the prevalence of abnormalities and widespread factors that make sexual deviations more and more widespread, it is the suitable implementation of sexual education methods that requires children to be raised in a healthy environment based on religious supervision and education. Employing such methods also guide their sexual instincts in the right direction, and protect them from all kinds of abnormalities such as masturbation, thirst, oral and verbal sexual abuse, prostitution and pornography that lead to sexual perversion and harm.

The present study aims to investigate the various areas of Global Citizenship Education (GCE) in the academic general curriculum in Iran. This is an applied research wherein, a qualitative content analysis method, the thematic analysis (themes), has been applied to the two levels of the selected documents (the law on the goals, duties, and organizations of the Ministry of Science, the comprehensive scientific map of Iran, and Iran''s sixth development plan) and syllabuses of the general courses approved by the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution. The data collection tools included content analysis, note-taking, and a checklist. A descriptive-analytic method was applied to interpret and analyze the data. Based on the research findings, the level of contents associated with globalization has a significant degree of severity and weakness from one course to another in terms of the qualitative aspect. It is certain that most of the contents related to the components of globalization often have indirect links and regarding the positive, negative, and neutral aspects, it can be claimed that the neutral aspect is of considerable significance compared to the other aspects. The qualitative content analysis of the documents and syllabuses of the general courses was done and subsequently, the obtained scheme indicates that the existing approach to the GCE in Iran is a combination of political and civic education approaches, cultural transfer, and the neo-liberal approach, and hence, the educational system should try to train global citizens with Iranian–Islamic identity. Among the important points in the analysis of the documents is a lack of distinction between globalization and internationalization. Manuscript profile -

Total 165 trainees were selected out of the total trainees who had been admitted to the course, and their pass marks were considered pre-tests. Later, post-tests were administered to the selected trainees. Data collection instruments were achievement tests on mathematics, essay writing, sentence writing and spelling. The contents of all the tests were based on previously administered standard tests, with their content reliability measured by educational experts. The findings show that there is a significant difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 15% of the learned content. The findings also show that there is a significant difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests on mathematics, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 38% of the learned content. Furthermore, the findings show that there is a significant difference between the results of pre-tests and post-tests on spelling, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 8% of the learned content. However, the difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests on essay writing and sentence writing were not significant. The findings of the present study point to the necessity of implementing appropriate planning and adopting useful strategies to address trainees’ needs after they complete the course.

The research method employed was content analysis, and the statistical population consisted of previous studies and documents that were aligned with the criteria of the present research. A sample of 36 articles was selected for examination using purposive sampling. In this study, a qualitative approach was used to analyze the data based on the content analysis method, categorizing the data into fundamental themes, organizing themes, and overarching themes. All key points and important ideas related to the virtual mathematics curriculum for elementary education were identified as fundamental themes within three important domains: technology, teacher, and student. Subsequently, through the analysis of the primary data, co-grouping codes with similar concepts were combined, and organizing themes emerged. In the next stage, these themes were identified and determined as overarching themes in four components: objectives, content, teaching methods, and assessment methods for the virtual mathematics curriculum for elementary education. Finally, based on the identified organizing and overarching themes, a thematic network related to the topic of virtual mathematics education was depicted. According to the findings of the present research, focusing on the drawn thematic network can significantly contribute to identifying influential factors in the virtual mathematics curriculum and shedding light on its unknown dimensions.

The era of the First Pahlavi king holds a special place in political, economic, social, and cultural history of this province. It seems the emergence of modern sciences in Balochistan took place in this period. The main question of this study involves the examination of the beginning and developments of education for Baloch children during Reza Shah's rule. Considering the sensitivity of the subject, a historical method using a descriptive-analytical design was employed; a desk study was carried out and documents of Iranian archives organizations and National Library of Iran were studied and analyzed. The results indicate that after the Ghoshun Operation (a military operation in 1928) in Balochistan, the government focused on expanding cultural developments through projects such as the establishment of the Department of Culture and Education and establishment of boarding schools in Khash, Iranshahr, Saravan and Zahedan counties. It appears that the military presence helped the expansion and growth of schools in Balochistan. On the other hand, many factors, such as insufficient budgetary allocations, untimely payment of wages to the teachers of newly founded schools, poor road conditions, and negligence of some politicians in cultural matters, contributed to the ups and downs of the modern education during this period.

And northwestern Iran and the development of science in this area The present study seeks to answer the question of what was the scientific status of the scientific centers of Azerbaijan in the ninth century AH and what were the social consequences of emphasizing religion? The research method is descriptive-analytical. The results show that schools were the most important scientific centers of the ninth century, which were superior to other centers both in terms of the number and amount of educational activities. During this period many schools were built to spread and spread science. The main sciences taught in schools during this period were theology, mathematics and philosophy. On the other hand, as a remarkable result, in the scientific activities after the Mongol invasion, the fanatical and dry religious spirit that prevailed in the caliphate during the reign of the Sunni religions, disappeared in the ninth century. And ignored their importance alongside schools, because the establishment of an observatory such as the Maragheh Observatory with a group of thinkers at the time played a very important role in the spread of science and knowledge in this region.

Based on entropy indices, the content of articles has been studied based on 7 main components and 93 sub-components of environmental education. The results of the analysis show that the main components related to humans and the environment with 9 articles (32.1%) and water environmental problems with 7 articles (25%) have the highest frequency. The components of waste and recycling value with 1 article are only 3.6 percent and the components of environmental problems of air, soil, sound and protection of natural resources with 0 articles (zero percent) have the lowest amount. Findings from the abundance of components have shown that the components of environmental education do not have a normal distribution and some components have not been addressed. Manuscript profile -

In this paper, entrepreneurial tendency is investigated. To this end, a comprehensive model of entrepreneurship is utilized. The questionnaires were distributed among 49 male and 42 female students of physical education. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 18. The results show that there is a significant difference between male and female students in terms of drive and energy, independency, risk taking and creativity attributes. However, no significant difference between them for the need for achievement attribute was found. In general, the findings show that entrepreneurial tendency of male students is higher than female students. In this paper, the weights of these attributes are obtained by fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) and a mathematical equation is developed for forecasting entrepreneurial tendency.

Light not only plays an important role in valuing the architectural elements of houses, but it is considered one of the important and determining factors of the space. In most of today's residential buildings, only the body of the building, which is a manifestation of material existence, can be seen, and the role of natural light, which is a symbol of the building's vitality, can no longer be seen in the building. What can be seen is that today's houses are designed similarly for all climates and the same lights are used for all spaces. In the physical design of the building, the same lighting is used in the space. Light enters only through the window, continuous use of artificial light (material and physical look at light) is done. This is despite the endless use of glass and the creation of transparent spaces that cause the loss of light properties. In the design of today's residential buildings, there is no respect for the hierarchy of light entering according to the needs of each space in different climates in Iran (a wise look at light) and only attention is paid to the aspects of decorating the lighting in the houses. Inseparable from designers has always been mentioned and needs serious attention in architecture education. According to Lawson, expert designers are always thinking about design, even when they are not designing. Donald Shun described all the activities of expert designers based on monitoring and reviewing their design process as reflection. From his point of view, design is a meditative activity and in the design process, designers engage in a meditative conversation with the situation. In the contemporary world, the presence of thought in architecture and how it is, in architecture education, is very important. In Seti's time, the manifestation of thought in architecture was unconscious, natural and self-evident, and the student, while acquiring skills and techniques, also acquired philosophical and religious insight from the society in general and from the teacher in particular, and manifested it in his practice. has done With the help of the application of semiotics method in the process of reading the place and the place-making factors of the urban space and architecture, it becomes possible to communicate and face the context in a deep and broad way. The design process is actually a set of steps that a designer goes through consciously and unconsciously to achieve a solution to the design problem. In fact, what is more important than the design itself is the design process. Lighting design in residential buildings is one of the things that has always faced challenges, and for the user, the way to enter and use it in residential spaces has been very valuable. To teach the application of light in the design of residential spaces, it is necessary to use the components that attention can focus on the design of light. This research seeks to extract and verify the components of light design in housing according to the opinions of semiotics and the consensus of their opinions. The research method is a combination of the nested type with the priority of the qualitative field over the quantitative field, which is in the first stage and qualitative to know the variables after extracting the concepts to conduct interviews to clarify the components of the theoretical field with selected examples of today's housing, which is with 28 One of the experts in this field conducts semi-structured interviews and the results are entered into the ATLASTI software for ease of work, then the variables are extracted and based on them a questionnaire with a Likert scale is compiled and distributed among 384 residents of these housings and the results It is analyzed in the ORIGINPRO software, the results show that the highest factor contribution is related to the components of shadow training and variety of components, respect for cohesion and continuity, the importance of how to improve the knowledge of light application with a value of (1.000) and the lowest is related to It is the principle of simplicity with the value of (0.213).

This research is carried out using correlation method and using structural equation method. The statistical population of the study consisted of all senior students of University of Kashan in 2017-2018 academic year (N=1218). Stratified random sampling was used. The sample size was estimated based on the Krejcie & Morgan formula of 300 (135 males and 165 females). The research tools include the Maslach's Burnout Inventory (Schaufeli et al., 2002), Avoidance Strategies Scale (Turner et al, 2002), Personal and Educational Development Inventory (Lawless & Richardson, 2004), and Academic Engagement Questionnaire (Reeve &Tseng, 2011). The analysis of the findings showed that the conceptual model of research has been appropriately fitted, so that academic burnout directly affects the personal and educational experiences of students and with the intermediating of academic engagement on both internal research variables (personal and educational experiences and reporting avoidance strategies). Student engagement as an intermediating variable has a significant correlation with other two introvert variables in the research domain and the extrovert variable of research (academic burnout), and burnout has reduced the academic engagement of the students. Finally, the results of the study showed that increased academic burnout in students can affect their academic engagement, their experiences during the university and the use of avoidance strategies.

MoreThe National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) has emphasized valuing mathematics in the flow of life and developing the mind and thinking. All students should manage to communicate mathematically, reason mathematically, and have an appreciation for mathematics. This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting mathematics learning by students. The meta-synthesis technique presented by Sandelowski and Barroso in 2007 was first applied in 7 steps. In the first step, questions were designed, and in the second step, papers were searched through keywords concerning the questions. In the third step, 215 found papers were filtered and 61 papers concerning the questions were obtained using the critical appraisal skills programme (CASP). In the fourth and fifth steps, the codes were extracted and categorized by MAXQDA software, and in the sixth step, two documents were re-coded by a member of the expert panel to confirm the validity of the coding, and the Kappa coefficients for these two documents were 0.64 and 0.68, respectively. In the seventh step, the outputs of the software led to the development of a questionnaire whose validity was confirmed based on CVI and CVR, and its reliability was confirmed by the Delphi method in 3 steps by Kendall's coefficient of concordance (W). The standard deviation of experts' opinions was 0.856 in the first round, 0.8297 in the second round, and 0.7951 in the third round. Kendall's coefficients of concordance for these three steps were 0.5569, 0.6720, and 0.7900, indicating high concordance of experts' opinions. Finally, 17 sub-criteria and 6 main criteria for learning mathematics were identified by meta-synthesis technique and checking the opinions of experts in mathematics education. Manuscript profile -

The present study investigated the challenging hidden face of the evaluation system of open and distance education universities. It was a descriptive field study (quantitative and qualitative). Three hundred and twenty students answered the four research questions and 286 faculty members and test designers of Payam Noor University completed a questionnaire with Cronbach Alpha of 0.96 on administration methods (in-person, distance, traditional, electronic, conditions and invigilation) for ensuring secure testing. For better perception of the students’ problems in evaluation and finding ways to prevent plagiarism, a semi-structured interview was conducted with seven experienced final-test designers of open and distance education university of Payam Noor. Due to taking in-person exams and invigilation, the students noted that cheating was difficult in exams, and only 10% of them reported cheating within two semesters. It was also found that 62% of students copy assignments, 30% do assignments with the help of others, 18% copy without citation, and 4% hand in the entire paper as their own work. Moreover, the students believed that 81% of other students cheated in exams, 54% in doing assignments, and 45% in coping without citation. All the instructors requested in-person electronic exams with invigilation and highly secured testing environment to prevent cheating.

The present study is a documentary study; the demographic data required for this study has been acquired by statistical data from the recent census of population and Housing as well as information regarding education (students, teachers and educational buildings) using the statistics provided by Dehloran education office. Then, the statistics were classified and adjusted in the researcher made information. To compare and rank the amount to which different areas and regions (rural or urban) benefit from elementary education, indicators and formulas for educational planning such as the index of region selection, Gini coefficient, Lorenz curve, and benefit levels chart were used. Moreover, in order to determine the educational inequalities, the data was analyzed using enrollment fees and the actual educational coverage, the ratio of students to teachers, utilization coefficient of educational spaces, and rates of the educational efficiency. The results of this study indicate that there is not a proper balance among different regions and areas (weather urban or rural) of Dehloran in terms of benefited educational opportunities. In terms of enrollment fees and educational coverage as well as access to elementary school teachers, urban areas as compared with rural areas and boys as compared with girls are at a higher level. Urban areas have more access to educational spaces compared to rural areas. As for the rates of educational efficiency, girls and urban areas are superior to boys and rural areas, respectively.

Technology education or technology literacy is an educational program that assists people to have an understanding and ability in designing and using technology products and systems and assessing the appropriateness of technological actions. This research was conducted to analyze textbook contents with regard to technology literacy elements. The method was content analysis. The population included all textbooks in grades 1 to 9, and the sampling was purposeful in which 24 textbooks were selected and their content were analyzed by two teachers using 20 elements of technology literacy through separate coding. The data were first described in frequency tables and analyzed later. The findings showed that technology literacy elements of understanding the nature and effects of technology are presented insufficiently. Process skills development elements are presented to an acceptable extent but these processes were far from technological processes such as Designing and Troubleshooting which are technological in nature. Also, regarding technological fields, information technology was the dominant content including 3/4 of the content, and little was left to other fields. Therefore, in general, it can be concluded that the new national curriculum is potentially weak and insufficient to develop technology literacy in all its dimensions Manuscript profile -

This research is carried out using correlation method and using structural equation method. The statistical population of the study consisted of all senior students of University of Kashan in 2017-2018 academic year (N=1218). Stratified random sampling was used. The sample size was estimated based on the Krejcie & Morgan formula of 300 (135 males and 165 females). The research tools include the Maslach's Burnout Inventory (Schaufeli et al., 2002), Avoidance Strategies Scale (Turner et al, 2002), Personal and Educational Development Inventory (Lawless & Richardson, 2004), and Academic Engagement Questionnaire (Reeve &Tseng, 2011). The analysis of the findings showed that the conceptual model of research has been appropriately fitted, so that academic burnout directly affects the personal and educational experiences of students and with the intermediating of academic engagement on both internal research variables (personal and educational experiences and reporting avoidance strategies). Student engagement as an intermediating variable has a significant correlation with other two introvert variables in the research domain and the extrovert variable of research (academic burnout), and burnout has reduced the academic engagement of the students. Finally, the results of the study showed that increased academic burnout in students can affect their academic engagement, their experiences during the university and the use of avoidance strategies Manuscript profile -

One of the important challenges of this model is the diminishing of the decision-making unit’s precision when dealing with a multitude of inputs and outputs. Hence, the aim of the present research was to develop a comprehensive performance evaluation model while enhancing the resolution of decision-making units. To this end, a balanced scorecard was used to identify comprehensive indicators. At the same time, for the first time, two objective and subjective approaches based on factor analysis and fuzzy inference system were used simultaneously to reduce indicators and improve the resolution of decision-making units. This study used an explanatory-descriptive method and was conducted as an applied-developmental research. The statistical population for identifying performance evaluation indicators and developing fuzzy inference rules included the experts of higher education institutions of Semnan city. Moreover, twenty-four higher education institutions of Semnan city were selected for model testing. The researcher made two questionnaires for the data collection. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by content and construct validity, respectively. Also, the reliability of the questionnaires was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha value and composite reliability of more than 0.7 respectively. The main accomplishment of the research can be designing a unified model with objective and subjective approaches to improve the resolution of decision units. In this regard, 26 indicators were identified and reduced to 8 structures by factor analysis. Also, the structures were scored by relying on the designed fuzzy inference system. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in the resolution of decision-making units when utilizing the proposed model, in contrast to conventional models which are mostly based on objective and subjective methods. As a result, the number of effective units in the proposed model effectively reduced to 10. Additionally, the results of the Kruskal-Wallis test and the calculation of the standard deviation of the efficiency scores revealed that the proposed model with an average rating of 48.29 and a dispersion of 0.221 has a lower efficiency rating and a greater dispersion as compered to other models. This finding serves as a confirmation of the enhanced resolution achieved by the proposed model Manuscript profile -

This paper aims, firstly,to identify if a gap exists between management accounting education and practice by evaluating the perceptions of academics and practitioners as to what is important in management accounting courses,and secondly,to cancass the skills that practitioners and academics consider important to bridge the gap. Thus,150 manufacturing companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange were randomly selected and finally 69 of them answered the questionnaires.In addition, 25 questionnaires were sent to academics, 23 of whom answered the questionnaires. The results show that practitioners placed an emphasis on traditional management accounting techniques,while academics placed an emphasis on contemporary techniques.Both groups were in agreement on the skills and characteristics required of recent graduates.Non-adoption of management accounting techniques does not mean that the modern techniques are irrelevant and inoperable.Academics who research barriers to the adoption of newer techniques should find forums for their results in practitioners' journals or databases to share their findings with the practitioners.Co-operation between practitioners and academics would enable both groups.to co-ordinate and better understand why the “gap” exists,and ultimately to bridge the gap.

Yet, within th MoreExtended Abstract Introduction: Education is the cornerstone upon which individual growth and societal progress are built. Its multifaceted nature extends beyond the mere transfer of knowledge, encompassing cognitive, social, and emotional development. Yet, within this expansive landscape, the integration of architectural education into early learning stands as an often overlooked but potent catalyst for transformation. This study endeavors to delve into the nuanced implications of introducing architectural concepts to preschoolers, recognizing and emphasizing their profound impact on cognitive and intellectual development during the critical formative years. Architectural education, typically associated with advanced learning stages, extends far beyond teaching design principles or spatial awareness. Its introduction in early childhood settings is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the cognitive framework of young minds. Understanding the depth and breadth of how architectural education influences the developmental trajectory of preschoolers holds promise for redefining educational paradigms. Methodology: The methodology adopted in this study was meticulously designed to comprehensively evaluate the influence of architectural education on the cognitive development of preschoolers. From a vast national pool of 30,000 educational centers, a meticulously chosen sample of 384 preschoolers underwent stringent selection using a combination of robust methods, including the Morgan, Kersey, and Cochran techniques. Each classroom, representing diverse demographics and learning styles, actively participated in a meticulously structured study. This carefully curated sample was methodically divided into a control group and a test group. Before the commencement of the study, both groups underwent comprehensive initial assessments, ensuring a clear baseline understanding. Subsequently, the test group received dedicated architectural training, while the control group followed the standard preschool curriculum. Furthermore, the study involved in-depth face-to-face interviews employing a mosaic method, allowing for a nuanced understanding of the diverse learning styles and individual responses exhibited by these young learners. Results: The empirical findings from this exhaustive study present compelling evidence supporting a robust correlation between architectural education and the enhancement of critical cognitive skills among preschoolers. Noteworthy advancements were discerned across a spectrum of cognitive domains: heightened spatial recognition (P Value= 0.0325, F= 6.14), amplified visualization capabilities (P Value= 0.0269, F= 6.3), adeptness in spatial reconstruction (P Value= 0.0017, F= 21.307), improved orientation skills (P Value= 0.00001, F= 51.822), enhanced comprehension (P Value= 0.004, F= 14.77), and a notable surge in problem-solving aptitude (P Value= 0.039, F= 5.17) among preschoolers exposed to architectural education. Conclusion: This research illuminates the pivotal role of architectural education as a transformative force that transcends conventional paradigms of knowledge dissemination. It emerges as a catalyst profoundly shaping the cognitive landscape during the crucial formative developmental years. The exposure to architectural concepts goes beyond imparting factual information; it fosters foundational comprehension and a nuanced understanding of spatial relationships. Furthermore, it ignites creative problem-solving abilities and cultivates holistic cognitive development, providing a robust groundwork for future educational endeavors and lifelong learning. Moreover, the implications of this study extend far beyond immediate educational contexts. They underscore the pressing need for the integration of interdisciplinary approaches in early childhood education. By integrating architectural education at the preschool level, educational systems can better nurture adaptable, innovative thinkers equipped to navigate and thrive in an increasingly dynamic and innovation-driven global landscape. Keywords: Architectural Education, Preschool Children, Intellectual Skills, Cognitive Skills. Manuscript profile -

Moreover, among urban land uses, educational land use has a singular significance because of the concentration of potential human resources in the future and the priority of rescue. The aim of this study is an assessment of the vulnerability rate in probable crises and also the availability of main management indicators in crisis planning and emergency evacuation of the population in the second education district of Isfahan. The case of this study is all schools in the secondary education district of Isfahan which is located in the third and fourth urban districts. The 142 participants of the study were selected from among the primary, secondary, high school, technical, and centers of special needs. The research method in this study is applied and descriptive. The schools in the study area have been evaluated and reviewed using two special indicator groups: basic and management indicators. The indicators are combined and new and are the latest ones in applied methods used by researchers and research institutes in the field of crisis management. The results show that schools in the secondary education district of Isfahan are weak in terms of fundamental structures and their resilience in probable crises such as earthquakes. On the other hand, the crisis management situation in these schools is undesirable based on their advantages. Therefore, these schools are extremely weak in crisis management and evacuation. In general, the situation of the schools studied in probable events is considered unsuitable, vulnerable, and critical, taking into account integrated indicators and requires strengthening of infrastructure and management approaches.

Identifying and analyzing the situation in various fields of regional development is the first step in the planning process. Then the bottlenecks and constraints in areas can be characterized and removed. In other words, the allocation of funds and resources among different regions, identifying their position in the region and enjoying the benefits of ranking levels are all essential. The purpose of this study was to analyze and regionalize Kerman province as far as the physical indicators of education are considered. The main problem of the present study was that the cities in the province suffer from the inequality in education. Thus, determining the inequality may help the researchers in poverty reduction in the area. The research is a descriptive – analytical one. The data have been chosen from the statistical yearbook of population and housing census of the year 1390. These data have been analyzed based on 21 indicators, which are mainly physical factors affecting the education sector. The results showed that Kerman province can be classified into four main levels: 39% of its cities in the over-concentration rate; 21% in the above- concentration rate, 30% are in the mid- concentration rate, and less than 9% of the cities under- concentration rate.

Adopting a descriptive survey, the statistical population of the study included graduate students of Islamic Azad University of Sari Branch. Using Krejcie and Morgan table, 331 were randomly selected. The research instruments were researcher-made information technology literacy questionnaire and critical thinking questionnaire, the validities of which were confirmed by the experts in the field of educational sciences. The reliabilities for the given questionnaires were estimated through Chronbach's alpha coefficient by distributing the questionnaires among a group of 30 participants, the result of which was 0.93 for IT literacy questionnaire and 0.80 for critical thinking skills. Regarding the establishment of parametric statistics, the Pearson correlation was used to analyze the data. The results of the study showed that there was no relationship between IT literacy and critical thinking skills (creativity, maturity and commitment) among higher education students. It means that IT literacy was not a reason for the existence of critical thinking, perhaps the best time for improving the thinking power among people through using information technology is before their entrance to higher education.

Using phenomenological research method, purposeful sampling and deep semi-structured interviewing tool, mental perceptions of sixteen people (eight master and eight e-courses students) were analyzed. Then data was analyzed using van menon method. The findings of the research led to the identification of the three main axes and the twelve axis. The main pillars include ethical bottlenecks related to professors, students and universities. Master related ethical bottlenecks include violation of privacy, limitation of access to professors, weakness of teacher and student relationships, and lack of ethical modeling of instructors. Student ethical bottlenecks include academic intolerance, promotion of deception, diminished commitment and ethical adherence, and the misuse of technology. The ethical bottlenecks related to the university include the lack of educational aspects, lack of responsiveness to students, lack of skills and deficiencies in the assessment system and the existence of score bubbles. the results showed that; despite the unique opportunities of e-learning, due to the lack of face-to-face communication and the lack of student ethical modeling, the student's actual behaviors do not provide much ground for moral development, But this vacuum can be filled by interacting with the learning environment and using more multimedia technologies.

The research method was descriptive - survey. The statistical population included all the experts, managers and elementary school teachers in Sari amounted to 1620 people. The sample including 463 people was selected according to Krejcie - Morgan table through random method. The data were gathered using the researcher – made questionnaire. The reliability of the questionnaire was estimated through Cronbach alpha (0/95) and data analysis was done by X2 test. The results of this study showed that schools were well equipped in regard to the computer facilities for school affairs, however, such facilities were not optimal for educational affairs (for teachers and students), that is in half of the schools, teachers have no computer, an in nine – tenth of schools, students lack computers. Teachers' ICDL skill was dim too but they show high interest and motivation to use new technologies in education. Also status of e-learning content is poor and has received the lowest consideration of 33/4% and teachers have no role in e-learning content i.e. teachers' art and teaching skills in e-learning materials are neglected.

This form of development, while meeting current needs, ensures the continued empowerment of future generations of urban communities in various environmental, economic, social and cultural dimensions. One of the components that helps sustainable urban development in ensuring this ability is citizenship education. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between citizenship education and sustainable urban development in the city of Ardabil. The theoretical framework and theoretical model was developed using theories of citizenship like that of Brian. S. Turner, Rousseau, Machiavelli, Asler and Starkey. The research population consisted of the citizens of Ardabil, of which, using Cochran's formula, 384 people were selected as the sample via a multi-stage clustering sampling technique. Pearson correlation test and structural equation modeling were used for inferential tests. The results showed that the proposed model of relationships between variables had an acceptable fit. There was also a positive and significant relationship between citizenship education and indicators of sustainable urban development. Significant level (p) of cultural and social indicators was 0.01, economic and environmental indicators was 0.05. For citizenship education to have a greater impact on sustainable urban development, it is necessary to first provide the education platform (comprehensiveness and dynamism of law, welfare and social security) in society, then remove the intervening conditions (institutional distrust, lack of cultural development and inefficiency of formal education) that hinder development.

This research in terms of purpose; functional, in nature; exploratory-analytical; in data collection method, it is a combined (qualitative-quantitative) method. In the qualitative phase, the components of a successful brand were identified by reviewing the literature and research background and experts' confirmation. Then, using the opinion of experts, these components were categorized. Ultimately, by using a pairwise comparison questionnaire, the required data was extracted from 11 experts of the technical and vocational university, and by using the causal mapping approach, the successful brand model was designed with the integration mental map of the experts. The findings of the qualitative phase showed that a successful brand in higher education consists of 6 components, which were divided into university image, costs and financial matters, university services and facilities, advertising and external communications, planning and success of education and the location of the university. The highest relationship between variables is related to the relationship between university services and facilities with costs and financial items. Then, between the university image variables and university services and facilities. The weakest relationship is between the cost and financial variables with the university image and educational planning and success with costs and financial items. Successful brand consists of university image, costs and financial matters, university services and facilities, advertising and external communications, planning and success of education and the location of the university.

One of these characters is Bahram Gur, whose reign has been adorned with mythical embellishments in literary sources. He is counted among the Sassanian kings and has garnered attention and popularity from historians, writers, artists, and more. This research takes a descriptive-analytical approach, utilizing library sources, to examine the portrayal of this character in both historical and literary domains. The stories related to Bahram Gur in historical and literary sources have been expressed with notable distinctions, yet they all share a common goal, which is the education of society. The aim of this research is to answer the question of how storytelling has been utilized as a tool for education. To elucidate this matter, we first delve into the perspectives of historians regarding this character and then analyze Bahram's portrayal in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh and Nezami's Haft Peykar. The findings indicate that, despite focusing on a single character in this research, different perspectives and analyses have been presented. When we approach historical texts from a literary standpoint, employing elements of emotion and imagination, the sole purpose is no longer mere description of facts. As Ferdowsi and Nezami have demonstrated in their depictions of Bahram's character, they have created didactic narratives with historical escapades. Manuscript profile -

Modern educational psychologists consider this method as one of the most effective educational methods. Mystics in Persian literature have also paid special attention to education based on nature. Maulavi pays special attention to the principle of "education" in his spiritual Masnavi. Education in the Masnavi is one of the concepts that Rumi wanted to internalize in order to institutionalize it in the existence of humans - along with matters such as God, knowledge, conduct, and acts of worship. This article aims at investigating the dimensions of inner education in Maulavi's Masnawi, and seeks to answer this question: What are the most important components of inner education which the thinkers and psychologists of education have also emphasized in the spiritual Masnawi? In doing so, the authors have analyzed the components of inner education in six books of Mawlawi's masnavis by using a descriptive-analytical method. According to the results of the research, the emphasis on the language of action, the gradualness of education, not imitating, wealth of deprivation, eliminating instead of presenting, anti-habit and paying attention to individual differences are among the most important components of internal education in Masnavi that their details and topics of which are analyzed in separate axes.

Rituals, celebrations, music, various arts are all ways to create happiness. Therefore, it can be said that happiness is one of the real and emotional needs of every human being and this universal and general issue lies in the human nature. Happiness is basically procreator and motivating, and it has many educational effects. From social point of view, it provides the intellectual and cultural development and spiritual moderation of people. Therefore, in Persian literature from the past until now, there are fewer poets and writers who did not encourage his audience to be happy and turn to life-making topics. One of these literary works is Qaboosnameh. Qaboosnameh is one of the valuable works of Persian language. Amir Ansar al-Ma'ali Kikavus ibn Iskander ibn Qaboos Ziari wrote the Qaboosnameh in forty-four chapters to educate his son Gilanshah in the fifth century AH. The emotion of happiness was striking in this work and the author had a conscious intention in using and promoting it. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the nature of happiness in Qaboosnameh and its role in social education. The method of analysis in this research is analytical-inferential. After analyzing the content of Qaboosnameh and extracting themes related to happiness, the principles and methods of social education are inferred based on these themes. The findings showed that the themes of happiness in Qaboosnameh include gratitude, anger management, companionship with a good friend, order, music, work, purposefulness and travel. Based on these themes, eight principles of social education were deduced. The results emphasize that happiness, in addition to being one of the psychological needs of human beings, is a social necessity and it has a great contribution in the interaction, cohesion, and unity of the individuals and cultures. It also provides an introduction to the intellectual and cultural growth and spiritual moderation of the people. All of these are dimensions of social education. The results emphasize that happiness, in addition to being one of the psychological needs of human beings, is a social necessity has a great share in the interaction and cohesion and unity of individuals and cultures.

With a kind of iconoclasm, Onṣor-al-Maʿāli sometimes complicates the language and make the meanings difficult to be gotten by consciously breaking away from the tradition. He inserts codes into the underlying layers of the text and by doing so, he guides the keen audience towards the meaning. In the contemporary area, one of the major branches of semiotics is analyzing new dimensions of a text, which is called cryptography. Roland Barthes has done researches in this realm and has divided the codes into five types of action, hermeneutic, symbolic, semantic and cultural; he has also described a function for each. The present article, by using library sources and descriptive-analytical method explored the ethical foundations of parent-child relationships in two chapters of Qaboosnāmeh (ninth and twenty-seventh) based on Barthes' cryptographic theory to explore the secondary purposes of the author in narrating the didactic tales. The general results of the research show that at the level of cultural codes, both religious ideology and intertextuality have had a comprehensive occurrence in explaining the educating. Hermeneutic codes have been effective in representing the ambiguous dimensions of the didactic narrative. Binary oppositions in symbolic codes emphasize the recurrent contrast between good and evil. Examining the semantic codes, it has been found that the storyteller used religious words and phrases, explained the meaning-oriented semantic system. In addition, to strengthen the audience's awareness, he explained his desired educational points. Furthermore, his using the action codes has also had a significant effect on the objectification of moral relationships between children and parents. Manuscript profile -

In the present study, there is an attempt to examine Persian didactic literature as a gender oriented genre. In other words, this study aims to determine if ethical instructions in the ancient Persian culture as used up to the present time are mostly partial toward education of the male gender. In this light, women, who have been entirely neglected in the so-called educational system, have inevitably based their values and logical on the predominant perspective. Therefore, females have been basically deprived of a significant part of their own entity and as a result they have lost it. Manuscript profile -

The present study aims to examine the level of development of health and education indicators in the rural of the west coast of Guilan. For this purpose, information related to 4 health indicators and 6 educational indicators of the three census periods of 2006, 2011 and 2017 were received from the Guilan Provincial website. Then, using the Rural Development Index, Combined Result Index and paired t-statistics, the development of health and education indicators in 8 parts of the coastal area over time were determined. The results showed that the amount of RDI calculated based on the frequency of indicators and also the frequency ratio to the number of rural in each section, has a spatial difference. However, the ranking of the CRI index, despite minor changes in its value, does not show changes in the level of development over three periods. This is also true in the CRI index obtained from the ratio of frequency to the number of rural. The results showed that the development rank in this area is D and C, which indicates the low level of development of the west coastal area of Guilan province in terms of health and education indicators.

The apparent and primordial issue in human social life seems to be the existence of laws, criteria, structures, cultures, and systems that can define their actions based on them. Hence, the need for citizenship education is indispensable at local, national and global levels. Nevertheless, despite the need for universal citizenship education, there seems to be no full coordination between existing schools. In order to explain the contrasts or differences between Islamic schools and pragmatism in the field of citizenship education and its causes, in this paper, education and, in particular, citizenship education from the two schools mentioned have been compared. The present study is a type of qualitative research which has been carried out in accordance with the principles of qualitative paradigm. The required data were collected by documentary method and according to the principle of maximum diversity and the principle of saturation in selecting the documents related to the research topic. Data were analyzed by descriptive-analytical method. The result is that although Islam and pragmatism have distinct characteristics, their similarities in education, including citizenship education, are greater. Manuscript profile -

Of the organizations providing food safety education in the United States (U.S.), the Cooperative Extension System (CES) is one of the most reliable. The effectiveness CES programs depends not only on what is being taught but also on how it is taught. Both a needs-based curriculum and how that curriculum is delivered are equally important. This descriptive cross-sectional study using a disproportional stratified random sample identified the teaching methods and tools being used by food safety extension educators of the CES of North Central Region (NCR). A Likert-type scale administered to extension educators revealed that they were adopting a balanced use of teaching methods and tools, and using learner-centered teaching methods in their programs. However, distance education, case studies and podcasts, which are commonly used in education programs, were not being used extensively. We recommend that food safety extension educators of NCR should increase the use of these two teaching methods and tool while continuing to use the current ones. This study has implications for improving food safety education delivery to clients in the NCR and for designing inservice education for food safety extension educators. Manuscript profile -

The higher education s MoreOrganizational agility with a behavioral approach is one of the issues that explaining its various dimensions and angles in different organizations, provides a favorable position for growth and improvement of their performance at different levels. The higher education system is one of the organizations that should identify the drivers of change and take steps to respond to environmental changes and increase agility by strengthening human resources. Referring to the importance of the subject, the present study was conducted with the aim of designing a model of organizational behavioral agility in the higher education sector using a mixed method. In the qualitative section, using the Meta-synthesis method, after screening 481 articles, 120 articles were reviewed, of which 11 factors were introduced as the final factors of the Meta-synthesis. In the quantitative section, the enumerated factors were examined in terms of effectiveness, effectiveness and internal relations using the opinions of 14 members of the panel of experts and the application of DEMATEL technique. The results show that the criterion of "ability to respond to environmental issues" has the highest among other criteria and the criterion of "change in educational planning" has the least impact on other elements. The highest permeability was related to "formation of virtual educational and research programs" and the lowest permeability was related to "managers' support". It was also found that the variables of "ability to respond to environmental issues", "practical skills" and "adaptability" can be considered as independent variables among the variables of organizational behavioral agility.

Methods: Thi MoreObjective: The purpose of this article is to explain the relationship between knowledge management and educational affairs through explaining the basic components and main elements related to the aforementioned fields based on influential conceptual models. Methods: This descriptive-analytical article explained the research back ground in the relations between knowledge management and education in Iran based on the documentary research method. In the explanation of the mentioned relations, the influential international conceptual models have been interpreted and analyzed to clarify the related process. Resultss: Knowledge and knowing are considered as the two main infrastructures in the field of educational affairs and the establishment of knowledge-based systems. From another perspective, tacit and explicit knowledge and the relationship between them are considered as a basis for the historical root of the application of knowledge management in education. The relationship between different types of knowledge leads to the development of individual, group and organizational knowledge. The systematic and internal relationships between educational fields, especially higher education and the knowledge management process can be analyzed by explaining the main elements of education and the knowledge management cycle. In rooting out these findings, three international authorized and valid conceptual models, including Knowledge and Knowledge Matrix, SECI conceptual model and Knowledge Management Framework for Teaching Universities have been interpreted. Conclusion: The process of adaptation and knowledge exchange as the main components of knowledge management is fully related to the goals of educational affairs in knowledge-based empowerment and knowledge enhancement of all stakeholders in the field of education. Thus, in any knowledge dissemination program, the content of education, that is, knowledge and how to transfer it through knowledge management mechanisms should be taken into account for the learner as the end user.

To gather information, the researcher has used questionnaires including 24 questions. The research community included 128 faculty members of Humanities, Basic Science and Engineering disciplines. Research findings indicated that more than 95 percent of them have access to Internet via university. There was also a significant difference among the faculty members of three disciplines regarding the ability in using Internet facilities such as e-mail. Moreover, there was no relationship between the scientific rank of the faculty members and their Internet use. As a result, the hypothesis of this study wasn’t confirmed. The research activities and accessing update information are the most important purposes of Internet use by subjects. The faculty members have mentioned the fact that they became familiar with Internet by their friends and colleagues. About 60 percent of Internet users spend 30-60 minutes every session they work with Internet. As conclusion, the faculty members believe that the Internet use has a great influence (43%) on their professional and research activities because they can have an easy and quick access to information resources via Internet. The faculty members have also noted that they can have access to original documents by the help of the message sent to their mentioned e-mail address.

Graduates holding a Bachelor's degree in architecture often face considerable challenges when it comes to addressing complex architectural design issues, which may serve as indicators of the shortcomings within the existing educational framework of universities. the primary objective of this research is to propose a pragmatic solution that involves the initial categorization of students based on their information literacy skills. Subsequently, we aim to explore the impact of various information literacy criteria on the overall quality of architectural education. One of the pivotal questions that this research aims to address is whether the criteria associated with information literacy significantly contribute to the enhancement of architectural education. In pursuit of these research objectives, we have employed a correlation-based research methodology, complemented by a quantitative survey approach. This research was conducted at the Islamic Azad University of Tehran West Branch, where we carefully selected our sample group. To collect data, we designed a tailored questionnaire that facilitated the systematic collection of information relevant to the study's objectives. The target population for this research comprises undergraduate architecture students who were enrolled at this university during the academic year 2016-2017. Leveraging Morgan's table, we determined a sample size of 341 individuals for the study. Manuscript profile -

This process of architectural impact on sustainability issues has been fundamental and entered the architectural education field, resulting in changes in the curriculum and educational approaches. One of the most significant of these approaches is the issue of energy and simulation of buildings, not having yet provided a suitable model for its training despite its complex features. Consequently, this study tends to present an efficient model for using energy simulation to develop the process of sustainable architecture education in Iran, derived from studies conducted in this field and a review of global experiences. The present research applies the analytical-descriptive method which, considering the analyses done with a forward-looking attitude, searches to offer the desired model. The findings of this study primarily specify the classification of issues and impediments to sustainable architecture education, followed by extracting effective parameters in energy simulation training in the process of sustainable architecture education. Ultimately, this research, by considering the experience of using a sample of simulation tools, presents its educational model derived from different parts of the research to develop the position of sustainable architecture education. Principles on which the educational model of this research is based include taking notice of sustainable architecture education as a paradigm, interactive education, appropriate software education, specialization, and continuity of different aspects of outputs due to the multifaceted nature of sustainability.

MoreThere has been a long literature on the linguistic differences found in the language men and women speak, but there have not been enough discussions about the reasons why such differences exist. To recognize some major differences a study of feedback could be suggested. In EFL classes feedback is very important specially to enhance speaking proficiency of the learners, but it seems that this has not been investigated properly in foreign language teaching context in Iran. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences between the Iranian EFL learners’ quality of performance across genders. This study examined the use of formative and summative feedback among 80 female and male EFL learners in a language institute in Tabriz, Iran in 2019 employing a quasi-experimental method. Because a pre-test and post-test method were applied to two groups of students to investigate the results of the feedbacks, an independent t-test and a double test method were used to analyze the amount of effectiveness of each of the feedback methods under investigations among genders and also a one-way variance analysis has been administered using SPSS22 software. Results of this study showed that both genders have had a fairly close results regarding the performance quality of speaking among EFL students in Iran. Considering the results, it can be suggested that both male and female students can have equal achievements in learning English considering their performances in speaking. Manuscript profile -

The participants completed the Torrance Creativity Inventory (1966) and the Five Factor Personality Inventory (Costa & Mc Crae, 1992). Results showed that in all three groups creativity was correlated with neuroticism (negatively) and with openness, extraversion and conscientiousness (positively). Positive correlation between creativity and agreeableness was significant only in the physical education group. Comparison of correlations in all three groups using Fisher’s transformation was only significant between creativity and agreeableness in the two groups of physical education and art. Stepwise regression indicated that openness, extraversion and conscientiousness explained 34% of variance in creativity scores in the art group, extraversion and conscientiousness predicted 28% of variance in the engineering group, and agreeableness, extraversion and conscientiousness accounted for 38% of variance in creativity scores for the physical education group.

Improving the level of thinking is one of the most important issues in education inasmuch as one could properly distinguish between right and wrong and be able to think about what happens around his/her environment and analyze them correctly. This article firstly explains the reason why we choose "analytical thinking" rather than "critical thinking" and then mentions the elements of analytical thinking. Appling these elements (principles) could lead to an educational environment for cultivating analytical thinking that finally help children and adolescents to develop their power of thinking.

Naturally, the identification of the main and secondary themes of these animations will point out the harm and danger that should be carefully studied and given serious attention in the planning and development of this industry in accordance with the ideals and needs of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. This article aims to examine the animation "Soul" with a qualitative approach and the method of theme analysis, and aims to reveal its hidden layer, which is in opposition to religious and revolutionary foundations. The findings indicate that the international system will be considered as a disruptive element and will confront any factor that changes its basic criteria and causes imbalance in the international system. This axis can be examined in this animation, which leads children's worldview and tendencies towards Western atheistic schools with a soft and gradual approach due to high inculpability, in order to institutionalize the context of their orientation and choice in adulthood. The seduction of religious counter-revolutionism in this animation can be traced and identified with the purposeful western goals with the aim of changing the process of religious education of children, in the event that in the clear layer and the authentic face of a message regardless of religious and political bias, it has been able to gain general acceptance and arouse the admiration of the public. .

The question of who should make curriculum decisions has been a central issue throughout the history of curriculum development. The first aim of the present article is to get acquainted with the decision-making structure in higher education curriculum design and also to find out whether it is better to centralize or decentralize by searching and reviewing articles from the most famous databases such as irandoc, cilivica, Jahad Daneshgahi database (SID), magiran, noormagz, Google, etc. The author introduces centralized and decentralized systems and examines their advantages and disadvantages in higher education planning and in the history of higher education in Iran and its developments in different periods, levels of decentralization of the curriculum, the position of participation of faculty members and important factors as well as barriers to their participation in the program development process. Finally, while expressing the challenges and solutions of decentralized planning, it has been concluded that complete transfer of decision-making power will not be a good solution to meet the existing needs, but a combination of decentralized and semi-centralized status for higher education in Iran can be very useful and effective.

Th MoreAbstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of art education based on the three methods of participatory teaching, rhetoric, and brainstorming on the artistic education of eighth grade students using a quasi-experimental method. The statistical population included all eighth grade students in Ramsar from which 60 individuals were selected by cluster random sampling. Art education based on participatory teaching, rhetoric and brainstorming was performed on students' art education in eight sessions of 90 minutes. The participants answered the artistic training questionnaire with an estimated reliability of 0.08. The data obtained from the study were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (analysis of covariance). There was a significant difference between each of the three teaching methods and the components of art education were found to have a separate and different effect. The participatory teaching method with an average of 2.98 has had the greatest impact on art education, and the method of teaching brainstorming with a mean score of 2.95 and the method of teaching rhetoric with a mean score of 2.89 ranked second and third respectively. The findings showed that the field of art production has been dealt with in the existing curriculum of art education in middle school. Nevertheless, the areas of criticism of art, history of art, and aesthetics are not sufficiently taken care of in the current curriculum for middle school art education. Manuscript profile -

There are a variety of perspectives from fundaments of moral education to operational solutions. Notwithstanding the variety and expansion, the literature produced in the country is mainly limited to notions of Thomas Likona and David Carr. As a reaction to the current status, the present study aims to introduce another prominent thinker in the field. One of the most important thinkers in this field in recent years is Professor Kristjan Kristjansson, an Icelandic philosopher, thinker, and educator who is currently the Vice President of the Jubilee Center for Character and Virtue at the University of Birmingham. In order to create the ground for the scientific community of the country to become more familiar with this thinker, in this research, an attempt has been made to examine the views of Professor Kristjansson based on his works. Analysis of the content of the works produced by this thinker shows that a paradigm shift in the basis of moral education from duty-oriented ethics to virtue-based ethics, providing a psychological reading of the stages of virtue evolution, mapping the process of character formation and its precedence over character training and enumerating the components of character education and addressing the irreplaceable role of emotions along with rational processes in moral education has been one of the most important scientific concerns of Professor Kristjanssonin the field of character education Manuscript profile -

The overall purpose of the present study is to investigate and present strategies for the optimal utilization of new technologies in primary education. The research method is descriptive-survey. The statistical population of this study consists of all principals, elementary school teachers and sixth grade students in Salmas County. For this purpose, a sample of (70) principals, teachers and (300) students was selected by random sampling. Two separate questionnaires were used for data collection, one for principals and teachers and one for students. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by experts. The questionnaires tested the status of using modern educational technologies, the level of familiarity with the computer and the barriers to using modern educational technologies. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and factor analysis, Friedman test. The results showed that the level of enjoyment and utilization of modern educational technologies in principals was favorable but in students and teachers was moderate and low but they had high motivation and interest in using new technologies.

In the present study, a systematic and strategic model of knowledge commercialization in higher education centers is designed according to the cultural factor.This research is an applied research in terms of purpose and descriptive survey in terms of method. The data of this research include documents received from keyword searches in reputable scientific databases and conducting interviews. In this research, first, using the content analysis method and its implementation in 2020MAXQDA software and performing open and axial coding, the components were identified and summarized, and then the final framework was formed using selective coding. Then, to check the validity of the model, 24 questionnaires were distributed among the statistical sample and analyzed with SmartPLS software.The findings show that the output of content analysis of 26 components in 5 dimensions (knowledge commercialization process, benefits, environment, resources and organization) was identified and the output of confirmatory factor analysis also showed the approval of 48 final indicators. It had validity and reliability tests and the final model was presented with 5 dimensions and 22 components.The system model presented in this research can study the process of turning ideas into technology and knowledge transfer with respect to cultural factors and use the environment and organization for creating appropriate output and benefits. Based on the presented results, decision makers in universities are advised not to implement the initial raw ideas quickly and instead they have to specify a specific process for presenting and evaluating existing ideas. It is also suggested to pay more attention to the role of cultural values, because the commercialization of knowledge, although considered a material activity, must be based on the right organizational culture and values Manuscript profile -

Looking at the performance of American diplomacy in Iran over the past decades, it can be understood that US is trying to promote American values and lifestyle, to establish a west-oriented middle class, especially in the universities, and also to develop English language as a scientific and communication tool.Accordingly, understanding US experience and practice in the field of academic diplomacy towards a country such as the Islamic Republic of Iran will be important. The main question of the present article is to understand how the US academic diplomacy has attracted academicians, especially the Iranian elites? Our hypothesis is that, using its academic tools as well as educational attractiveness, the country has been able to have the largest educational exchanges around the world, and thus, to disseminate its values to academicians, simultaneously with increasing its soft power. These attractivenesses have led many Iranian scholars to study abroad especially in the United States. Manuscript profile -

However, due to the lack of face-to-face interactions in an online context, this issue is under question. Since this phenomenon has not been studied in an online environment, the primary objective of the present case study was to explore how experienced EFL teachers and their students perceived teacher interpersonal behavior in online classes and the extent to which the two groups’ perceptions either converged or diverged in six selected online classes in Shiraz, Iran. The samples of the study were six EFL teachers and their respective 106 language students. To gather the data, The Questionnaire on Teacher Interaction (QTI) was administered to both groups to assess the eight scales of interpersonal behavior and dimensions. To analyze the data, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was employed to compare the two groups in terms of interpersonal behavior dimensions and scales. Accordingly, the results revealed that the EFL teachers and their students perceived the teachers to be moderately dominant and highly cooperative. There was a high level of convergence between the experienced teachers and their students’ perceptions of interpersonal behavior in terms of the Influence and Proximity dimensions. The Student Responsibility Freedom and Strict scales, however, were rated higher by teachers than their students. Following the findings, the present case study provides particular implications in the field of applied linguistics. Manuscript profile -

Although online education has been implemented in various forms, such as online, semi-online, or offline models, its effectiveness compared to in-person education remains a key question. Method: The present study aimed to compare the efficiency of three different online education models with the in-person model. The study employed three different online models and compared them with the in-person model in a public university. Results: The results showed that while professors believed that the in-person model was more efficient than the online models, students had different opinions on this issue. The study also revealed that students and professors from different faculties had varying views on the effectiveness of the employed models. Therefore, it is difficult to make a general judgment about the efficiency of educational models. However, in general, the study suggests that the efficiency of online models is lower than that of the in-person model. Discussion: It is important to note that online education offers several benefits, such as flexibility and accessibility. Therefore, it is crucial to continue exploring ways to improve the effectiveness of online education models to ensure that they can provide quality education to students. Manuscript profile -

This research was applied in terms of purpose and in terms of approach, quality and to collect data and to achieve the purpose of the research, three methods of documentary analysis, grounded theory and practical inference were used. The statistical population and sources of research data collection included letters, opponents, articles, works and historical narratives related to the Āshūrá uprising. To collect information, appropriate samples from sources related to the research topic were purposefully selected and to record the data, a receipt form was used and the data obtained during the research were continuously analyzed and interpreted. For this purpose, first, all historical narrations about the Āshūrá event were examined by documentary analysis method, and words that contained aesthetic concepts (53 words) were extracted and recorded in fish-taking forms. Then, the objectives and basics were explained and classified using the data foundation method and thematic coding. In the next step, Frankenna's practical inference method was used to extract the principles and approaches using the obtained goals and principles as a prelude. The ultimate goal of the uprising of Imam Hussein (as) and the event of Āshūrá in the aesthetic dimension is to move in the direction of absolute beauty and godliness. And to achieve this goal, four bases, seven principles, new frontiers of beauty, new explanations of the concept of freedom and enlightenment and awakening of minds and seven educational approaches were inferred.

The research method of the qualitative part was contextual theory and the research method of the quantitative part was the survey method. The sample size in the qualitative section was 23 education experts and teachers with high work experience in Isfahan and in the quantitative section was 300 principals of the first and second secondary schools in the country. To analyze the data in the qualitative stage, the coding method was used and in the quantitative phase, the variance-based structural equation modeling approach was used. The results of the research in the qualitative part show that Causal factors (inefficiency of education-oriented structure, developmental attitude, legal necessity, and development of futuristic thinking), Context factors (change of learning policies, multifaceted context, and institutional support), and Intervening factors (micro and macro factors) affect research-oriented school Strategies (reviving the school mission and rearranging educational elements). These strategies have consequences at the individual and socio-organizational levels. The results of the quantitative section show that the school mission revitalization strategy can explain 58% of the changes in individual outcomes and 55% of the variance in organizational-social outcomes through its mediation. Through its mediation, the rearranging educational elements explain 71% of the variance in individual outcomes and 67% of the variance in organizational-social outcomes, which is a high amount of explanatory power.

In terms of methodology, the current research was conducted using the qualitative method and using thematic analysis with MAXQDA software. The participants of this research, in the library section, were upstream documents and key documents of higher education, and in the field section, faculty members, managers and relevant officials. People were selected by targeted sampling with the criteria of at least fifteen years of teaching, research and management experience in different academic courses. Sampling was done with the participation of 30 experts. The data collection tool consisted of two sections, review and exploration of upstream documents and higher education documents in the library section and semi-structured interview in the field section. The semi-structured interview with the participants continued until the theoretical saturation stage. Data analysis was done based on thematic analysis. The research findings showed that the organizational well-being model for higher education includes 32 components and 5dimensions (individual well-being, occupational well-being, managerial well-being, process well-being, environmental well-being). In addition, the participants mostly mentioned the dimensions of individual well-being and occupational well-being, but in the upstream documents, the dimensions of managerial well-being, well-being of processes, and environmental well-being were discussed more. With a systematic look at the current research, we can see that the concept of organizational well-being has an important and effective role in improving the work process, and individual differences, occupational characteristics and organizational ethics variables, etc are antecedents of well-being.Therefore, the design of the organizational welfare model in higher education issues is needed to achieve a coherent and structured model.

In order to see how the child understands the existence of himself and his family inside the home. Therefore, like a native among the natives, the author tried to be present among the primary school students and in addition, he examined their behavior. The gender differentiation of their perception while drawing children's drawings has been explored. In this study, the statistical population was 172 children in elementary school, 86 boys and 86 girls. The data has been presented and analyzed with ethnographic narratives in the form of field note-comment anthology units, and then by analyzing the content of the students' paintings, we identified the parameters of their gender perception and the level of accuracy in drawing each gender. We analyzed the parameters. The results are in accordance with the previous studies on the gender difference in perception and show that children have a correct understanding of size, age, proportions and facts, and girls, unlike boys, pay attention to the beauty of appearance, details of clothes, and boys are more realistic in their drawings. They turn and the vehicle is seen in their drawings.

The population in this study includes all employees of education organization, i.e. 663 people. On the basis of Cochran’s sample size, 243 individuals are selected through stratified random sampling method as the sample of study. To collect the required data, Walumbwa et al.’s (2008) questionnaire of authentic leadership and Bennett and Robinson’s (2000) questionnaire of deviant behaviors were used. Reliability of the questionnaire of authentic leadership turned out to be .85 and reliability of the questionnaire of deviant behaviors turned out to be .73 using Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, stepwise regression and analysis of variance. The results showed that there was a significant reverse relationship between authentic leadership (p < .01, r = -.285), components of relational transparency (p < .01, r = -.226), internalized moral perspective (p < .05, r = -.160), and balanced processing (p < .01, r = -.196) with deviant behaviors. Also, from among the components of authentic leadership, relational transparency, balanced processing, and internalized moral perspectives were able to predict staff’s deviant behaviors, respectively. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the scores of authentic leadership and deviant behaviors in terms of gender and age. The difference between the scores of deviant behaviors in terms of years of service wasn't significant, but the difference between the scores of authentic leadership in terms of years of service was significant. In addition, the results showed that there were significant differences between the scores of authentic leadership of staff with a working experience of less than 10 years, 10 to 20 years, and more than 20 years.

To obtain the necessary research data, the pre-test and post-test experimental design with control group was adopted. To this end, 60 out of 154 mothers with LD children in reading and writing, whose disorder was confirmed by LD centers in Rasht city, were randomly selected. All mothers answered 33 questions about parental tension under four subcomponents of depression, feeling of competence, social isolation and parental health, related to parental stress index (PSI), the dependent variable, before and after applying FLE. To analyze the data and compare the two groups, the t-student parametric test was used. The results show that mothers’ characteristics resulting from increasing parental tension can be changed through FLE model and programs. This means that increasing these mothers’ child rearing skills, on the one hand, and changing their perception toward LD children on the other hand can reduce their tension, depression, and social loneliness and enhance their sense of efficiency and health.

Content analysis method is used to achieve this goal. Also, for analyzing information, descriptive statistics such as abundance and percentages have been used, and for the purpose of providing data, graphs and tables have been used. The results of the research showed that in the social education books of the third, fourth, fifth and sixth grades of primary school, 78 items were referred to the components of citizenship education. Interpretation: By reflecting on these findings, it can be said that many components in all aspects of citizenship education have been underestimated with regard to curriculum design. Therefore, given the apparent distance and the lack of coordination of the proposed curriculum with the existing curriculum, the need to review and rethink all aspects of citizenship education in the curriculum is suggested. Among the dimensions of citizenship education, cultural education is one of the dimensions that has been given the least attention in social textbooks of the third, fourth, fifth and sixth forms of primary education. So, most of all, curriculum designers in the content of textbooks should place the cultural dimension of citizenship education on their policy axis. Manuscript profile -

However, there is still no specific text or judicial procedure in Iranian law. When the loss of opportunity arises from government subsidiaries' performance, this legal vacuum manifests more clearly. The concept of subordinate responsibility of the government is a way to fill this legal gap. At first glance, however, there is a conflict between the institutional principle of personal responsibility and the subordinate responsibility of the state. But the formulation of two distinct arguments is capable of resolving this conflict; Those arguments are mainly ascertained on intrinsic duties and mechanisms at the government's disposal. The subordinate responsibility of the government is founded on national and international rules and regulations. Also, in the Islamic legal system, the subordinate responsibility of the ruler is considered and emphasized. Derived from Article 30 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic, the provision of effective and efficient educational management should be deemed as a part of government governance duties, i.e., Providing a coherent set of knowledge derived from the application of scientific methods to characterize and explain organizational elements and relations between them in educational organizations. If the citizens have lost the opportunity and the resulting losses due to the inefficiency of the academic management of government institutions, the government has civil liability for those cases, as in other similar cases.

Since the transference of the Holy Qur’an from the divine essence to the heart of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), as well as the quality of communion of this revelation by the Prophet to the people, is itself a form of education, so the Qur'anic verses themselves provide some kind of image of dynamic learning. In that man, he is always a student and a Qur'an is his teacher. Accordingly, the present study tries to illustrate some of the principles and methods of teaching the Qur'an in realizing the life of Ṭayyib in a Qur'anic approach. The Qur'an, the Word of Allah the Almighty and the manifestation of His Essence, sent him to the truth of his expressive language for the connection of earthly creatures to the holy graves throughout the heavenly light, in order to be a reference to, fullness, and complete recipe of the life of the life of the Tayyib. The first earthly encounter with this celestial script was issued by the decree of the Qur'an to the election of the divine choirs and continued with recite him and his recitation of the people and the teaching of books and wisdom and cultivation. And among these, one of the most important teachings of the Holy Qur’an is the realization of Ṭayyib's life. Ḥayāt Ṭayyibah is the true life of a human whose worldly life, with its wide range, is the basis of it, and the eternal life with eternity and its significance is the embodiment of this real life. This genuine and real life is a reality beyond the apparent life that comes in this world. Ḥayāt Ṭayyibah comes from a high level of human spirit. The believer in the transcendental way and his spiritual excellence, which is born after birth, confirms the divine enthusiasm from the heart of his faith that the life of the ṭayyib is its fruit.

Accordingly, to address this shortcoming, the present study endeavors to identify appropriate educational dimensions in light of Imam Reza's (AS) educational approach, considering the capacity of extracurricular activities in both primary and secondary schools. The impetus for this research lies in the notion of utilizing the lofty educational concepts of the Infallible Imams (AS), particularly the educational insights of Imam Reza (AS) in the upbringing of children. The study employed thematic analysis, a prevalent and rigorous qualitative research method. Participants were purposefully selected from the research community (comprising experienced educational researchers and university professors, as well as seminary professors specializing in the foundations of Razavi conduct) using a snowball sampling technique, resulting in a total of 17 participants. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the aforementioned experts and specialists. In the first phase, seminary professors were consulted to code themes and concepts from the text. In the second phase, the views of university professors were sought to validate the selected codes in alignment with extracurricular school activities. The research findings identified five educational dimensions aligned with the educational approach of Imam Reza (AS) for extracurricular school activities: self-improvement, decision-making and problem-solving skills, social relationships, personal growth, and interpersonal communication. Within the framework of these dimensions, a study of the Imam's conduct reveals the teachings related to individual and social ethics and life skills that can be incorporated into extracurricular school activities. Given that Imam Reza (AS) viewed education as encompassing the growth of all aspects of human existence, encompassing attention to all internal and environmental dimensions of the individual, including society, family, and children, it is imperative that educational planners and administrators pay greater attention to utilizing the educational concepts and insights of Imam Reza (AS) in the structuring of extracurricular school activities. A framework for extracurricular school activities should be developed in consultation with experts and specialists, ensuring that educational dimensions based on the Razavi (AS) conduct are incorporated.

Entrepreneurial Behavior (2018) and Boubker et al. Entrepreneurship Education (2022) questionnaires were used. Research data was analyzed using management applied software, including SPSS25 and PLS3. Results showed that among the existing components, entrepreneurial orientation not only has a positive and direct effect on entrepreneurial behavior, but also mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial behavior. However, entrepreneurial intention does not have such effect on entrepreneurial behavior and as the result does not mediate the relationship between entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial behavior.

Two groups of participants took part in the present study. The first group who participated in the study included male and female Iranian English teachers (n=51 in the qualitative phase and n=196 in the quantitative phase) who were selected through available sampling from private language institutes in Iran. The second group consisted of male and female Iranian intermediate EFL learners (n=46 in the qualitative phase and n=201 in the quantitative phase) who were selected through available sampling from private language institutes in Iran. A one-on-one semi-structured interview and a closed-ended questionnaire were used to collect data. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and Cronbach's Alpha test. As revealed by the results, a pluralistic model of teacher effectiveness for Iranian EFL teachers emerged from the participants’ perceptions in three main categories including pluralistic classroom management, pluralistic pedagogy, and pluralistic ethics. Moreover, it was revealed that the developed model is valid and reliable. The findings have some implications for EFL teachers, teacher educators, and teacher education curriculum planners.
