One of the main functions of the education institution is to socialize students and accelerate their socialization process. It can be said that the most relevant textbooks on socialization are social study books. On the other hand, we should consider the teaching methods, which are an integral part of the teaching profession. But it seems that besides all the variables and factors involved, one of the reasons for the ineffectiveness of teaching educational content in schools, especially social studies teaching, is the frequent and excessive use of traditional methods (lectures, explanations, etc.).This paper is written with a qualitative approach and with a descriptive-analytical approach, criticizes traditional teaching methods (disadvantages such as passivity, inflexibility, teacher activism, etc.), Two most effective strategies to teaching of social studies are: 1. "Project Strategy", 2. "Current Events Strategy". This paper analyzes the project strategy, such as the reasons, the necessity and importance of this strategy in teaching social studies, project segmentation, project outline, how to evaluate projects, various stages of knowledge project design. We learn in analyzing current events strategy of important issues such as the nature of current events strategy, features and coordination  of current events, the importance of current events strategy in teaching social studies, how to use it in social studies education, current events discussion and criteria and so on . Since this article is a kind of applied research, our target population and target audience are educational science students at Farhangian University and elementary school teacher.

Teacher training centers have been renovated since 2011 under the name of the University of Farhangian and have been recruiting students from all over the country from 2012 to 2018, including undergraduate degrees in geography education. The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the process of distribution of Geography teacher students in the provincial campuses of this university during the above mentioned period by quantitative method and document analysis. For this purpose, the necessary information about the number and place of admission of undergraduate students of Geography education from the field of elective courses of 2012-2013 was extracted and entered in SPSS software and the necessary statistical parameters were described, calculated and analyzed. The results show that during this period of 7 years, a total of 1108 teachers were recruited in this field, of which 771 were male and 337 were female. The male in 11 and the female in 7 provincial campuses are distributed. The study revealed that initially there were professors and facilities available at the teacher training centers to make decisions about student teachers' distribution. But over time, taking into account the scientific principles of educational and curriculum planning and taking into account the conditions of student teachers ,the situation has become more balanced. The selection of Alborz, South Khorasan, Tehran, and Khuzestan provinces as the four national hubs of geography education and the allocation of new faculty and new equipment to them has consolidated the status of undergraduate geography education in the country

Field studies, direct observation of processes, gathering data through field trips in geographical studies as an important branch of geo-science deserves high importance. Continuous interaction and purposeful and active cooperation of students in such kind of inquiry learning can create a context in which they are motivated to learn more and experience subject matters objectively, which result in meaningful learning as well as practically geographical skills. Fortunately, the newly-revised curriculum in Farhangian University has been developed in a way in which a geography teacher should have not only the content knowledge (CK) but also a variety of knowledge and skills (PCK) such as instructional designing, application of teaching strategies, evaluation practices, e-learning, and etc.The present study aims to make teacher students familiar with both the application of blended learning, field trips, and create effective learning opportunities. This study has used a qualitative method in which interview, observation, studies of textual and pictorial documents have been used as instruments for collecting data. Internal validity of this study has been verified through a panel of experts. The findings indicate that student teachers not only get familiar with new learning approaches but also achieve higher grades in final tests at the end of the term.

The learner is one of the most important foundations of the curriculum elements that have been mentioned throughout the history of curriculum studies.
