        Evaluation is considered as an essential component in whole curricula; which is vaguer and more complicated once the curriculum has practical and applied aspects. Present paper has examined the evaluation component of curriculum through comparative and synthesis approaches. In comparative section, first the present state of Iran has been described, then the intended situation in advanced countries has been displayed and finally the comparison has been performed. In synthesis approach, all studies among 2000-2017 gathered and their findings synthesized. According to the results, in Iran, based on documentaries and teacher guide books on entrepreneurship, a variety of written tests, portfolio, observation, job sample, etc. are proper, however, in advanced countries and also research findings, competitions inside and between schools and simulated small start-ups are regarded as evaluation methods too. On the other hand, psychological tests, especially Need for Achievement and Self-Efficiency tests are important in determining and improving the entrepreneurial traits. Manuscript profile

The qualitative research method was based on Klein's model. The research community included reference texts in the field of identifying educational reforms needed to revise the curriculum of experimental sciences from 2010 to 2021. Based on this, 51 sources were studied and investigated with a purposeful selection method, and the sampling process was stopped based on theoretical saturation.

The conclusive aim is awareness and competence in life skills in the digital age, which can be achieved by familiarity with electronic knowledge, electronic identification, awareness of electronic rights and responsibilities, the ability to make the proper connections in the electronic world, the ability to electronic participation, and the ability to maintain electronic security. The content was organized using interdisciplinary and objective-oriented organizing. The learning-teaching strategies were explained in 5 scales, including participatory (learners' teamwork experience, peer-to-peer participation, and participation of teacher, student, and parent), personalization (attention to differences, learner activity, learner independence), problem orientation (project based on the need, problem-solving, and exploration), simulation (modeling, simulation), and contingency (inverted training, workshop training, storytelling, game centered approach teaching). The evaluators and research tool were also considered in the two aspects of the evaluation. The experts confirmed the validity of the designed model and its elements in line with the missions of the digital citizen. Manuscript profile
