These areas which are mostly considered as bed and origin, play a central role in promoting social contacts, communication and interaction between citizens. Definitions and indicators used in the study of the views of experts such as Jean Jacobs, Donald Aplyard, Coleman, Brian Goody and others have been used in this area. In addition to definitions and concepts discussed by theorists in the field, the experiences of different cities and countries in the Pedestrianization is also considered as part of the theoretical foundations of the study is devoted to. This study aims to examine the social and economic effects of 17 Shahrivar Pedestrian path in Tehran. To collect required information, documents, library and field studies have been used. In the present study, three types of questionnaires were designed for residents, pedestrians and workers of the 17 Shahrivar Pedestrian path which were analyzed after survey. The sample size of the resident, pedestrians, and working populations were 180790 and 1400000 people and 400 trading units, respectively. According to Cochran sample volume formula, respectively, 383, 384 and 196 questionnaires were computed and distributed using the cluster random sampling method. For final assessment of the reliability of the questionnaire in pre-test, Cronbach's alpha was used which was assessed as excellent for all three groups. Finally, for analysis of the questionnaire, Kolmogorov–Smirnov, single-T sample and Multiple regression tests were used. The findings of this research suggests that it is the intention of the social objectives of most people and tourism from this place and most people who refer to the location of the range around the closer Pedestrian path. The results show For all three groups that building Pedestrian path was negative in terms of social aspect, yet regarding the economic aspect, it had a positive effect. The significance level of the test for all components is smaller than zero, that is, the construction of the pedestrian on 17 Shahrivar has affected all the components of the social index. It is observed that the components of social interaction are at a high level because the average difference with the value of the test is greater than and larger than zero, that is, the construction of the pedestrian route on 17 Shahrivar in Tehran has increased the social interactions of all three groups of residents, pedestrians and employed people. In this way, the first part of the first hypothesis is assured with 95% confidence. In relation to the second hypothesis, the results of t-test for the economic index in the three groups of residents, pedestrians and employees indicate that the significance level of the test in each of the three groups is less than 0.05 and the difference between the mean and test value is zero It means that the construction of the 17 Shahrivar roadway in terms of all three groups did not improve the economic index. Therefore, the second hypothesis is rejected with 95% confidence. Manuscript profile -

3 - 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 evaluation of renewal actions claims to promote residents’ satisfaction in some cases. At the same time of improving objective and economic quality of life, there are claims regarding the lack of any improvements in their subjective quality of life. Above physical reforms, renewal actions in deteriorated textures should consider the issue of enhancing residents’ quality of life. Hence, besides considering physical aspects, renewal thoughts must also seek to provide and promote their quality of life and satisfaction. The Tehran Renewal Organization in 1388-92 years with the aim of achieving democratic renewal has tried to follow renewal actions with residents of the neighborhood and in keeping existing human and community development. This organization five activities defined: Social activities in order to identify the neighborhood for Awareness and Inform to the residents; Integration and renewal; Improve the quality of construction; Environmental sanitation and the definition of stimulus projects. The aim of this article is to explain the relationship between residential satisfaction of local residents with renewal actions of Tehran Renewal Organization. To do this, first, the aspects of residential satisfaction in deteriorated textures will be discussed. Then, the status of these aspects in renewal experiences will be reviewed. Accordingly, the aspects of achieving residential satisfaction in these fabrics are explained via deductive reasoning method. Based on historical research method, renewal experiences are studied regarding the aspects of residential satisfaction. Residential satisfaction in deteriorated fabrics is influenced by physical-environmental, services, socio-cultural, managerial, and economic aspects. According to aspects of the theoretical framework to examine this issue in renewal experiences 1388-92 years in Tehran. Three neighborhoods Hashemi in 10 district, Moghaddam in 17 district and Takhti in 12 district as selected samples in Tehran were selected based on The cluster analysis, k-means method. Target population are residents of neighborhoods that their homes renovated between 1388-92. then based on Cochran formula 325 questioner was determined to be distributed in the neighborhoods. Questionnaires were distributed and were filled through systematic method in neighborhoods. The data of the questionnaires analysis by statistical methods such as regression and factor analysis in Spss software. Based on outcome of Exploratory Factor Analysis seven factors (residential complex, social capital and environmental conditions residential neighborhood, The physical condition of housing units, Local Facilities and Services, Social-economic situation, Physical conditions of Neighborhood) defining as factors of residential satisfaction in these neighborhoods. The general characteristics of the residential complex, social capital and environmental conditions residential neighborhood residents account for a high percentage of residential' satisfaction. Based on renewal actions that done in these neiborhoods and results of regression analysis, Social activities, integration and renewal and environmental sanitation associate with residential' satisfaction. Activities in the field of improving the quality of construction and development stimulus projects although were defined in renewal activities but has not been considered in the following years and effectiveness of them on residential satisfaction cannot be investigated.

Its specific geographic situation and its name which has become a brand of urban tourism among Iranians, have increased attention to the island and subsequently added to the constructions there to meet the needs of tourists and investors. Structures that turn the southern part of kish into a workshop for beautification, prosperity, and inquiry of northern and eastern part of the island. So this Island has witnessed many constructions due to the growth in population and increased demands. High-rise buildings and luxuriant designs are among the basic principles of these constructions which are based on the spirit of the time. However, the spirit of the place (physical and content aspects) of Kish Island, which has its own defined principles has been ignored. The identity of a city plays an important role in its formation as a place. However, in modern times, due to the changes in some basic concepts, understanding the components of a city's identity has become a basic question. So the thing that is now more important than the other points is protecting and restoring the spirit of living (Revitalization) of these areas and also maximum utilization of its potentials. Identity is a term whose depth of meaning cannot be clarified using letters and words, any part of the earth like any object or organism has its own identity, spirit, and unique features, as well as events that can only be found in that place. In simple words, every corner of the earth like the man has a metaphysical aspect besides the physical one. Physical and metaphysical properties together make every place's identity. In this article, we want to find the identity components in Kish Island and after that, we can maximize our use of the potentials of the place in accordance with the environment to achieve socio-economic prosperity. The research method used in this study is interpretation and analysis. First, by collecting and analyzing related data collected from a literature review and library research, the theoretical issues are clarified. Then, research findings and conclusions are presented based on data collected through field study on Kish Island. Based on findings of the library research and questionnaires it was concluded that 3 groups play a more important role than others in introducing identity-making elements of Kish: 1 - Designers and policymakers, 2 – tourists and visitors, and most importantly 3- residents. And the elements which make the urban character and identity of the island can be classified as follows in term of physical and content dimensions. So Identity is an integral part of the city jus tas each person is living with and is recognized by his/her identity. The proper understanding of the spirit and identity of place and combining it with the needs resulting from the spirit of time can help reveal the inner beauty of cities beyond just decorating it. It can open a window for the architecture of Iran and Kish Island. Manuscript profile -

Therefore, it is a critical matter that children should be considered in the process of urban planning and design. As UNICEF express it, the primary responsibility for ensuring that children’s right is realized lies with governments and other stakeholders such as civil society organizations, the private sector, academia, and media, as well as children themselves. Given that, public and government officials, city managers, top executives, and private firms should collaborate with each other to set out a series of normative principles for city planners and urban designers taking consideration of children needs. It is safe to say that children need consist of many factors such as environmental, social, educational, cultural, healthcare, and more importantly safety needs. Broadly speaking, it is the city, town or community’s task to protect children from violence, abuse, and exploitation where they can grow up healthy with utmost care. Hence, investigating, determining and identifying the characteristics of a safe and secure environment for children (or even adults) is crucial to this matter. The citizen’s security and ways of promoting it has been considered as the priority of urban designer, this urban security promotion and improvement, have beneficial aspects on cultural and social traces and relics that related to citizen’s behavioral pattern that enhance the residential environment quality through urban crime and violence reduction. As a matter of fact, in the past few decades, there has been a change in understanding of how crime and violence reduction should be achieved. Taking into account the above, several researchers have offered concepts of defensible spaces to planners and designers in order to create and shape a more secure and safer public space which reduces the crime and violence rate. The attempt has been made to introduce the role of urban fabric and its physical aspects and makes clear the principles, paradigms and the theoretician strategies approaches. Moreover, examined here are the experiences gained around the world with regards to the design of safe public spaces. Given that, The effort has been made to foster the factors which are affected to the urban spaces safety, the necessity of the safe urban theories relates to this manifest: nowadays, the urban fabric potentials and physical aspect have been not considered in urban crime reduction that enhances the quality of life and urban satisfaction. This research result shows that the crime commission and violence can be reduced by using practical urban design criteria. The attempt has been made to cultivate the factors which are affected to urban security. By attention to the positive aspects of the safe and secure urban public spaces, and their influence on children, we shall arrive at certain deductive principles or guidelines for safe public urban spaces in our cities.
