  This manuscript was based on the research studying the relation between system thinkingand creativity among high school principals in Tehran. The questionnaires were administeredbased on components of both variables. Such demographic variables as their educational degree,major, and working experience were also involved. Statistical population included 482principals of high schools for girls in Tehran sampled in 172 based on Cochran formula.Sampling was based on clustering method and data analysis process was done through usingSPSS in both descriptive and inferential statistics. Pearson correlation was employed to showthe probable relations. The results of the study show that there was a significant positiverelationship between system thinking (as the main variable) and the principals’ creativity ofgirls’ high schools in Tehran. There was also a meaningful and positive correlation between thecomponents of system thinking (system approach, holistic, and system performance) andprincipals’ creativity. Manuscript profile

  Teaching-learning as a multifaceted٫ complex and dynamic issue including processes that are considered in the academic system to achieve the basic goals. In this way٫ various models and frameworks have been developed to describe, analyse, and explicate this issue. However, lack of consensus in clarifying teaching-learning and the numerous approaches and models, which are mostly non- native, highlighting the multi-faceted nature of this issue and on the other hand, indicating call for expanding frameworks in teaching-learning, in particular in the realm of higher education. The present study is an attempt to explore the meta-synthesis of teaching-learning patterns and frame works with a complex adoptive system approach. To this end, relevant criteria of teaching-learning based on the complex adoptive system approach were considered and expressed in the form of a meta-synthesis of the research literature. This study clarified teaching-learning in higher education based on the components such as organizational structure, human factors (teacher-learner), environment, capacity and efficiency in the complex adoptive system approach. The findings may provide a suitable platform for description, analysis, and evaluation of teaching-learning in the realm of higher education. Key words: Teaching-learning, Higher education, System approach, Complex adoptive system approach, Meta-synthesis Manuscript profile

  Background and Objective: lack of enough attention to the public participation is the most reason for the deficiency of wetland ecosystem management. Managing wetlands based on ecological approach defined as  “taking all the key elements and indicators in long-term management of an ecosystem and also as an integrated management strategy, promotes the conservation and sustainable use of resources with the participation of all stakeholders and the active participation of people, local communities in particular”. The purpose of this study is to present a management framework in the Anzali International Wetland with an ecological approach, applied for the first time. Material and Methodology: This study is a descriptive-analytical study based on available data. The World Conservation Union has incorporated 12 principles into five categories in this study developed for Anzali Wetland as the study area. Gephi software was used for stakeholders’ network analysis too. Findings: The results showed the developed framework in this study is comprised of seven main sections: Pre-planning, Scoping, Analysis, Planning, Implementation, Monitoring and Evaluation. Each of thes mentioned sections has related elements. In stakeholders’network analysis individuals are represented as nodes and connections as edges of the graph that shows the linkage between stakeholders. Discussion and Conclusion: The main stakeholders should have participated in the ecological management of the wetland including: Governmental Organizations, Non-governmental Organizations, Local Communities, Judiciary, and Legislature. In this study, the initial stages of the developed framework were implemented including pre-planning, scoping, and some parts of the analysis. Afterwards, the identified stakeholders, at consideration of verified and modified information obtained from the previous three steps, formulate a joint implementation, monitoring and evaluation plan in the participatory workshops. It is also recommended to apply the developed framework in other wetlands and common natural resources, especially protected areas, in accordance with the legal duties of the Department of Environment (DoE).
