        This study explores the efficacy of cognitive and metacognitive strategy instruction in enhancing the writing cognitive processes of Iranian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Utilizing various instructional approaches, including scaffolded metacognitive instruction and writing metacognitive strategies, the research investigates the effects on learners’ metacognitive awareness and writing accuracy. Research on cognitive-oriented writing is a young but growing field. The current mixed methods study explored the extent to which brainstorming, focus on form (FonF), and metacognitive strategy instruction could affect cognitive processes (planning, translating, revising) of Iranian EFL learners. The participants were 150 BA learners in three intact classes majoring in English language translation at IAU, Islamshahr Branch. During 16 sessions, each group experienced brainstorming, metacognitive strategy instruction, or FonF activities as pre-task conditions. Writing pretest and posttest, and semi-structured interview were utilized to collect the data. The results obtained from one-way ANOVA revealed that pre-task conditions statistically impacted the cognitive processes of learners’ writings. The findings suggest a positive correlation between strategic knowledge, metacognitive strategies, and improved writing skills among Iranian EFL learners. The study not only contributes to the understanding of the interplay between cognitive and metacognitive processes in language learning but also provides valuable insights for educators aiming to enhance writing proficiency in EFL settings.

        This review article provides a comprehensive analysis of 21 studies investigating the effectiveness of brainstorming and related teaching strategies in enhancing language skills, particularly speaking and listening skills, among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. The studies, conducted between 2010 and 2023, employed various research designs, including quasi-experimental, qualitative, and mixed-methods designs, and were carried out in different settings, such as high schools, universities, and workplaces, and involved participants from different countries, including Iran, China, and Indonesia. The review discusses the main findings of each study, highlighting the positive impact of brainstorming and related strategies on language skills. The review also identifies gaps in the existing literature and suggests directions for future research, such as investigating the effectiveness of these strategies in enhancing other language skills and exploring their impact on different learner populations. The studies suggest that brainstorming can increase students' confidence in speaking English, positively impacting their motivation to learn and use the language. Additionally, brainstorming activities can enhance students' creativity in spoken language by encouraging them to generate and share ideas in a supportive and collaborative environment. The studies also indicate that the use of brainstorming techniques can lead to noticeable enhancements in students' speaking skills, demonstrating its effectiveness as a teaching strategy.

        This research was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of brainstorming and TRIZ training on students' academic engagement and academic buoyancy. The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with two experimental groups. The statistical population of the research included 750 male students of the second year secondary schools in Garmy city in the academic year of 2022-2023, of which 30 were selected by available sampling and after obtaining the inclusion criteria, they were divided into two groups 15 Test subjects 1 and 2 were placed. The instrument used in this research was the Reeve 's academic engagement scale, academic buoyancy scale of Dehghanizadeh and Hossein Chari. Brainstorming training program during 6 sessions of 90 minutes for the experimental group 1 and the TRIZ program during 6 sessions of 90 minutes for the experimental group 2 were implemented by the teachers. Data analysis was done using univariate analysis of covariance in SPSS program. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the post-test scores of academic engagement of the groups (P<0.05), but a significant difference between the scores of the academic buoyancy post-test of the groups (F=6.658, P=0.016). The academic buoyancy scores of TRIZ training group have increased more compared to the brainstorming training group, as a result, TRIZ training has been more effective in improving academic buoyancy compared to brainstorming training. In general, according to the findings of the research, the TRIZ method is superior to the brainstorming method in increasing the academic buoyancy of students, and if teachers are trying to improve the academic vitality of students, they can achieve this goal faster and better by implementing the TRIZ teaching method.

        Abstract    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

        The general object of this study was the environmental scanning of Sections quad Iran's sports based on the STEEPELD model and analysis of key driving forces consequences by future wheel method. The present research is in terms of applied purpose, mixed in terms of nature, and in terms of implementation path, survey and brainstorming. The statistical population were faculty members of sports management with associate degrees and higher who were selected by combined sampling. To adjust the environmental factors and analyze their impact, a 61-item questionnaire with convergent validity (0.622) and composite reliability coefficient (0.868) was used, which was analyzed using Friedman test, structural equation modeling (PLS) and panel of experts. According to the research results, economic transparency and control in educational sport, economic stability and security in sport for all, infrastructure development in championship sport and international restrictions such as sanctions in professional sport, had the highest impact factor whose consequences were investigated with 24 components in the first, 22 components in the second and 19 components in the third place. Therefore, analyzing the impact of the identified key driving forces of the research can provide a more suitable image of the future of Iranian sports on the horizon of 2025 to eliminate, adjust or develop the strategies of sports organizations.
