This research was done with the aim of designing an extracurricular curriculum for Farhangian University. The research approach was applied in terms of purpose, exploratory mixed (qualitative-quantitative) in terms of data, in terms of the nature and type of study in qualitative dimension, paradigmatic foundation data and cross-sectional survey in quantitative dimension.

A semi-structured interview was used in the qualitative part, and a researcher-made questionnaire was used in the quantitative part, and to measure the validity of the qualitative part, according to experts, and to measure reliability, retest and intra-subject agreement methods were used. For the validity of the questionnaire, face and content validity were used and coefficients were confirmed, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used for the reliability of the quantitative part. The data were analyzed in the qualitative part by the foundation data method and in the quantitative part by the confirmatory factor analysis test and structural equation modeling.

It showed that among the 21 existing indicators (items), 40 main categories can be identified, which include the main factors, goal, content and evaluation, effective factors including educational, technological and organizational, consequences including individual, educational, scientific-applicative and organizational.

The results showed that the extracurricular curriculum model implementation strategies can be summarized in several managerial, organizational, individual and educational factors. Also, the existing platforms including educational, organizational, attitudinal and individual factors were identified and the existing barriers including educational, management and individual barriers were reported. Finally, a model derived from the identified factors was drawn, which had good validity.

This research was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of traditional learning and electronic learning on poor writing skills of first grade students in Shiraz city.

The research method was of comparative causal type. The statistical population of the current study was made up of all the first grade students of Shiraz city in the academic year of 2021-2022, whose number is estimated to be around 3500 people by referring to the Education Department of Shiraz city. Thirty of the students under the study (15 in the experimental group and 15 in the control group) were selected as a sample through purposive sampling method. The tool used in this research was a researcher-made questionnaire on dysgraphia.  The face and content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by experts and technical people, and the reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha method. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (T single sample and independent T groups) were used to analyze the data.

The results of the research indicated that there is a significant difference between the average grades of dysgraphia in the two groups of traditional learning and electronic learning.

The results indicated that the students who were taught by the traditional learning method had less dysgraphia than the students who were taught by the electronic learning method due to the direct communication between the teacher and the student with the disorder.

Organizations are valued based on their assets, and among them, intellectual and social capitals are especially important. The aim of the current research was to predict organizational performance based on intellectual capital and organizational entrepreneurship among education workers in Darab city.

This research is practical in terms of purpose and descriptive-correlational in terms of nature and method. The statistical population included all education staff, numbering 140 people, according to which the census method was used. The measuring tools were Patterson's Job Performance Questionnaire (1990), Bontis's Intellectual Capital Questionnaire (1998) and Leonidas et al.'s (2007) Organizational Entrepreneurship Questionnaire. Data analysis was done by the regression analysis method.

The results indicated that the relationship between organizational entrepreneurship and intellectual capital is significant and these two variables can predict organizational performance. There was a positive and significant relationship between organizational entrepreneurship and organizational performance and between intellectual capital and organizational performance.

It seems that the organizations that give more importance to intellectual capital and engage in organizational entrepreneurship perform better in the changing world.

The aim of the present research was the effect of teaching philosophical stories on the spirit of research and self-directed learning of second year elementary school students.

The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all students of the second year of elementary school in Morvdasht city. For the sample size, 50 students were selected using the purposeful sampling method and were replaced in two experimental groups (25 people) and control (25 people) and were measured with two questionnaires of Shirzad's research spirit and the self-directed learning questionnaire of Fisher et al. The collected data were analyzed at two levels (descriptive statistics and inferential statistics). At the level of statistics, mean and standard deviation were used, and at the level of inferential statistics, covariance analysis methods were used.

There is a significant difference between the research spirit of the experimental and control groups in the post-test stage, and there is a significant difference between the self-directed learning of the experimental and control groups in the post-test stage.

The results showed that teaching philosophical stories and research spirit of students has a significant effect. Teaching philosophical stories and self-learning has a significant effect for students.

Given that the present study examines the role of education in environmental protection.

the research method was applied in terms of purpose, cross-sectional in terms of the time of research, quantitative in terms of the data type, and descriptive-correlation in terms of the method of data collection or the nature and method of research. The statistical population of the present study included all primary school teachers in Tehran with 4300 people. Using the sample size calculation in structural equations and stepwise cluster random sampling method, 700 people were selected as the sample size. Two questionnaires were used to collect data. First, the standard environmental attention questionnaire of Emamgholi (2011) was used to measure environmental attention. Second, Salehi and Ghaemi Asl's environmental protection education questionnaire (2013) was used. After collecting the questionnaires, describing the data through means, standard deviation, etc. through SPSS21 software and statistical inference of data through structural equation modeling using LISREL-v8.80 software were done. The technical characteristics of the questionnaires including reliability, convergent and divergent validity were examined. The content validitiy and reliability of the questionnaires were confirmed by the specialist and the reliability of the questionnaires were assessed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient.  The path coefficients and significance coefficients of the software were used to test the research hypotheses.

 The results indicated that education is related to environmental protection.

Currently, the use of MOOCs is known as one of the learning gateways in the 21st century to technology-based learning, which has advantages in the learning process. Therefore, the main goal of this research is to design a conceptual model of distance learning based on MOOCs in technical and vocational high schools in Fars province.

The research was done in a developmental type with a qualitative design and through using thematic analysis and semi-structured interview instrument. The participants were selected using the purposeful sampling method with theoretical saturation criteria, and based on that, 32 professors and specialists in the field of technical high schools and vocational training were selected. In order to obtain the reliability and validity, two methods of review of participants and review of non-participating experts were used in the research. In order to obtain transferability, interviews and consultations were conducted with 32 experts, and in order to comply with the transferability, all the details of the research were carefully recorded in all stages.

The research findings indicated that conceptual framework for distance education, based on MOOC in  Fars province technical high schools and vocational training, includes five main dimensions concerning managers' support with components  of managers' awareness, managers' commitment and managers' accountability; support of high-level documents with the components  of vision, correcting manual documents and policy making; platform building with the components of professional expert, beliefs, hardware, software, user-friendliness, support, training and motivation; planning with the components of targeting, content developing, evaluation; and implementation with components of feasibility, design, performance, and evaluation.

Determining the main factors influencing MOOC in technical and vocational high schools and paying attention to them in the matter of education management macro-planning can be the basis for more use of this educational method even at the country level.

The indicators of organizational excellence models that are suitable for schools' conditions can be used as channels to improve schools' performance. Therefore, the purpose of the current research is to identify and analyze the effective factors on the excellence of the performance of the first secondary schools in Abadan city considering the document of fundamental evolution of education.

The statistical population is the principals and teachers of the first secondary schools of Abadan city,and according to Morgan's table, the required sample size is 186 people. The methods of collecting information in this research are divided into two categories: library-based method for collecting the subject literature and research background, and field-based method for collecting information to confirm or reject research hypotheses.

The theory test model in this research contains five main factors of leadership, policy and strategy, staff, partnerships and resources, and processes, each of which consists of a number of subscales. The factors of leadership, partnerships and resources each include 6 subscales, processes and staff each include 4 subscales, and policy and strategy includes 7 subscales. The results of the path coefficients between the factors also indicated that the policy and strategy have an effect of 0.193 on the leadership factor and the staff factor has a 0.490 effect on the policy and strategy factor.

The factors introduced by the researcher (leadership, policy and strategy, staff, partnerships and resources, processes) with the approach of the document of fundamental evolution of education strongly influence the excellence of school performance.

the teacher's characteristics are usually one of the factors that influence teaching and its consequences are effective on the progress of students. Researchers have revealed that the best teachers are not necessarily the most experienced. The best teachers usually have a lot of enthusiasm and warmth in their teaching; they are sensitive to the progress of each student. They have positive relationships, high motivation and commitment.
The purpose of this research is to present a causal model of the relationship between philosophical mindset and teacher self-efficacy on teaching quality with the mediating role of psychological capital and organizational commitment of elementary school teachers in Darab city.

The method of this research is correlational and the statistical population includes all primary teachers of Darab city (210 people, 28 men and 182 women). To determine the sample size, 132 people were selected on the basis of Morgan's table and the relative stratified sampling method was used.

The findings indicated that the highest direct effect is related to teaching philosophy on psychological capital (0.28) and the lowest direct effect is related to teacher self-efficacy on teaching quality (0.11). In addition, the largest indirect effect is related to the impact of teaching philosophy on teaching quality (0.12) and the lowest indirect effect is related to the effect of teacher self-efficacy on teaching quality (0.04).

Psychological capital, like philosophical mindset and teacher self-efficacy, has both direct and indirect effects on teaching quality, with the difference that psychological capital, like teacher self-efficacy, has an effect on teaching quality only through the organizational commitment variable, and an increase in psychological capital leads to an increase organizational commitment and, as a result, an increase in the quality of teaching.
