    Purpose

    It is more than 30 years that Afghan people immigrate to Iran. This paper aims to find out the educational challenges Afghan High School students face in Iranian schools based on English teachers’ perspectives in Tehran province.

    Methodology

    This research is qualitative and its kind is deductive. Based on the theoretical foundations of migration, relevant studies, especially the research of Sadegh Mousavi et al. (2019), Shishehgran and Haji Dehabadi (2018), and Songhori et al (2014) components of educational challenges were compiled. Guba and Lincoln indices (1994, quoted by Mohsenpour, 2013) were used to validate the components. The tool of this study is a Semi-structured interview based on the accredited components.  Data analysis has been done by the use of Braun and Clarke’s thematic method (2006). The number of English teachers who have taught Afghan students for more than four years in public schools and participated in this study was about 32 (17 female and 15 male).

    Findings

    The findings show that parents of these students rarely come to school to ask about the educational progress of their students, Afghan students adapt to the content of Iranian textbooks and the curriculum as the result of having a close relationship with Iranian culture, some students work after school to help their family financially. Regarding citizenship, Afghan students consider themselves differently as first-class Iranian citizens, second-class citizens, and some do not care about the issue of citizenship in Iran because they consider life in Iran to be temporary and intend to immigrate to European countries. Among the female students, no delinquency or victimization was observed by the English teachers, but the male teachers had heard of a few cases such as buying and selling drugs and consuming them. Considering that Afghan students are interested in learning English and its skills, it is necessary to take advantage of the presence of English teachers in reducing the educational challenges of students.

    Conclusion

    This can be achieved by holding compensatory classes by these teachers themselves. This leads to more social communication between students and their English language teachers and to a large extent causes a kind of social control in preventing the occurrence of delinquency and delinquency. It is also suggested that the English language curriculum should pay attention to multiculturalism and anti-racism, and the necessary programs to familiarize school administrators, parents of students, teachers, and Iranian students, as well as parents of Afghan students and the students themselves should be provided.

The validity of the factors based on the factor loading was higher than 0.60, the convergent validity was higher than 0.50 and the average variance extracted was higher than 0.70, and the reliability was higher than 0.80 with Cronbach's alpha method. In addition, the 6-factor model of the after-sales service curriculum of the automobile industry in Iran had a good fit and the effect of the said model had a direct and significant effect on all 6 factors (P<0.05).

    Purpose

    Electronic Tourism is one of the important components of expanding Tourism by synchronizing this industry with information technology. It has not been long since its emergence.

    Methodology

    this field is a combination of tourism and information technology that is one of the most common types of income-generating businesses which is producing job opportunities in the modern world. The advancement of science alongside communication and information technologies presented many opportunities and threats to this field due to tech such as smartphones and sensors, virtual and augmented reality tools, NFC, RFID, etc.

    Findings

      The disclosure of the tourists' information and the possible abuse of it is one such threat. Therefore privacy and non-disclosure of information should be important factors. Recognition of reputable sites is an important factor in solving this problem. In this study, we have presented a model for recognizing fake and phishing sites which use the CFS+PSO and a combination of Info+Ranger alongside their results to reduce the test dataset features so that it could present a model for categorizing and higher accuracy in recognizing phishing sites by using the Multilayer Perceptron method. The proposed model was successful in recognizing 95.5% of phishing sites.
    Counclusion: The effect of information technology on the tourism industry and the usage of internet websites for selling and providing tourism services to tourists have created new security challenges. Protecting the privacy and personal information of people and tourists is one of these challenges and the disclosure of such information could lead to abuse by unqualified people and dissatisfaction and distrust of such systems.

    Purpose

    The purpose of this research is to design and evaluate the effectiveness of the social responsibility model of companies active in the capital market affected by the epidemic of the Covid-19 disease.

    Methodology

    The current research is a mixed research (qualitative-quantitative) and is practical in terms of purpose. In the qualitative part, nineteen members of the expert panel were determined using the snowball method. At the same time, G_Power software was used to determine the size of the statistical sample in the quantitative section, which determined it to be 120 cases. In order to analyze the data to reach the research objectives, Delphi technique was used in the qualitative part. Also, in the quantitative section, structural equation modeling using SmartPLS software was used to measure the efficiency of the model. In the qualitative section, after reviewing the research literature, 19 primary indicators were identified in the form of three main components, and the opinions of the expert panel members were used to measure their effectiveness using the Delphi technique. Finally, after two rounds, this technique reached the saturation stage.

    Findings

    In the quantitative part, using the PLS technique, it was found that all three main components have a positive and significant effect on social responsibility, and at the same time, in terms of the severity of the order of the factors, it is internal factors, macro factors and company characteristics.

    Conclusion

    The results of this section show the removal of three indicators from the primary indicators and at the same time the addition of four secondary indicators, which led to the identification of three final components and twenty sub-components.
