Abstract

The present study was conducted to determine the effective disciplinary methods of educators on reducing child abuse in one of the boarding centers covered by welfare. The research method is qualitative case study and sampling method is available. To conduct this study, a sample of educators working in one of the girls' private boarding centers under the auspices of the Welfare of Tehran agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected through observation, interview, questionnaire and daily report book. Educators were divided into two groups based on the extent of child abuse during their hours of attendance: effective educators (with relatively low levels of child abuse) and less effective educators (with relatively high levels of child abuse). The disciplinary methods they use to manage children's behavior were compared. Three-step coding technique (open, axial and selective) was used to analyze the data. According to the results, the dominant approach in the disciplinary activities of effective educators was the comprehensive versus traditional approach. In other words, effective educators used comprehensive, supportive and participatory activities in the components of relationships, respect, interaction, engagement, and environment to establish discipline, and less effective educators used traditional activities based on reward, punishment, and control.

Abstract

Aggression is an inner tendency and part of human behavior that the child needs to learn to control it. Toys are the most important product to learn children. The number of the toys with this purpose which exist in the Iranian market is not very large, but many of them are used as training aids. However, no evaluation has been done so far on the effectiveness and efficiency of these products. The purpose of this applied research is to evaluate the efficiency of these toys. In this study, a sample size of 414 children was randomly surveyed. The instrument for measuring anger in children was the Nelson Questionnaire and then the conditions for anger and the method of its expression was done through another questionnaire. According to the obtained characteristics, available toys in the market were studied. The results showed that while the relevant toys need to cover the relaxation phase through attractive characterization, they are either learning-oriented that do not appeal to the child, or are used in the pre-anger phase, or are designed for children with attention deficit disorder that do not have the expected effectiveness.

Inferential analytical research method using Frankenna's model. The results of the research showed that the soul, as a person, recognizes beauty as experiences of self-knowledge, art, love and knowledge, and by gaining aesthetic experiences, provides the ground for its excellence and influence on others. Aesthetic experience has a motivating role in intellectual activities and the elements of aesthetics can turn intellectual activity into an aesthetic experience and make it transcendent. The experience of aesthetics as a basic competency is not limited to a specific field and activity and has implications for the goals, content and teaching and learning methods at the level of educators and educators and the curriculum. The ultimate goal of Plotinus' aesthetic education is to unite with the origin of beauty and to achieve reasonable beauties. Aesthetic training methods include self-discovery, visual observation, imagination and self-deployment, and inner insight. These practices are appropriate and corresponding to the components of transcendental intellectual experiences, including; originality, intuition, inner mobility, dynamism and interaction, enthusiasm and passion.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to explore the nature and process related to perceived social status among faculty members in Iran. By using a qualitative research design, 20 faculty members interviewed. Data were analyzed by exploratory thematic analysis.  Analyzing the data showed that faculty member’s perceived social status something like a gap or distance between existing and ideal status in their professional and social life in university and society. Judgement of faculty members about social status suggest that social status for academic jobs  degraded in social hierarchies. Furthermore, finding revealed four categories including organizational, institutional, managerial, political and personal process as the main categories. It seemed the need for reconstructing social status would be the linking process between categories and it is convincing to consider that as the main theme in data. According to findings, it seems perceived social status is constructed in university and it is influenced by a number of structural and personality process. Social status has  degraded for academic jobs but universities could reconstruct social status by modifying organizational, institutional, managerial and political process. In addition, applying indices related to social status could be effective for selecting volunteers for academic jobs.

Abstract

In the classrooms based on inclusive education, cognitive flexibility and teaching-learning concepts play an important role in teachers' self-efficacy. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of cognitive flexibility and teaching-learning concepts in teachers' self-efficacy in a classroom based on inclusive education. The research method was descriptive and correlational. Sampling was done by a simple random method from the list of names of teachers participating in inclusive education. Therefore, 467 primary teachers of the 9th district of Mashhad were selected. In order to collect data, teachers' self-efficacy questionnaires in inclusive education (TEIP, Sharma et al., 2012), cognitive flexibility questionnaire (CFI, Dennis and Vanderwaal, 2010) and the teaching-learning concepts questionnaire TLCQ (Chan Elwitt, 2004) was used. Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze data. Results showed that there is a positive and significant correlation between cognitive flexibility and the perception of self-efficacy related to inclusive education, as well as the concepts of constructivist learning and the perception of self-efficacy related to inclusive education (P < 0.01). Also, the results of multiple regression analysis showed the variables of cognitive flexibility and constructivist learning teaching concepts predict 36% of the total variance of teachers' self-efficacy. In general, teachers with cognitive flexibility and more developed teaching-learning concepts experience higher self-efficacy in classrooms based on inclusive education. The findings of this research emphasize the development of cognitive flexibility and teaching-learning concepts to improve the self-efficacy of teachers in the classroom based on inclusive education.

Abstract

One of the most important challenges facing education is to develop students' health and create a sense of attachment to the educational environment in them, which will lead to an increase in the quality of education and training. Architecture as a container of human behavior has a great impact on this matter. The organs of the building and the relationships that govern them are effective in the process of understanding, recognizing and then the way people respond to the environment. According to studies of mental health and environmental psychology, students quickly feel emotionally uncomfortable when dealing with certain educational spaces and feel homesick. People enter the attachment process faster with places in harmony with subconscious schemas. In this article, emphasizing the need for attachment to place in school design, this question is raised, recognizing cultural schemas in the collective subconscious of students and orienting them to design school architecture can increase students' mental health and promote a sense of attachment to educational places? The research method in this research is qualitative and analytical-descriptive. At first, the materials were collected in the form of library study, collect documents in the field of psychology and unconscious cognition and the stages of perception and cognition by it in the human mind, and then analyzed analytically. As a result, examining how students perceive space is effective in creating qualities such as "familiarity" and "identity." In this article, by looking at the category of the unconscious in the field of mental health and architecture and analyzing the collective unconscious schemas, it emphasizes the mechanism of its effect on how students recognize and interpret semantics. Collective help can help the cognition stage lead to the promotion of attachment to the place properly.

Abstract

Transforming the educational environment into a learning environment through combining education with new technologies and changing the role of educational components has been considered by educational thinkers. For this reason, the purpose of this article is to identify the poles of conflict in direct education and to provide strategies for empowering the disadvantaged poles. To achieve this goal, the six staged deconstruction method was used. The findings showed that there are changes in different dimensions of the direct education approach, including: 1- Changing the role of the teacher from a commanding mode and transferring knowledge to a facilitating mode of learning 2- Changing the role of the student from being passive and neglected in the learning cycle, to the active and responsible element in education 3- Changing the teacher-centered teaching method to a student-centered method such as project-based, exploratory, laboratory. 4. Changing the educational content from the monologue mode of the fixed book to the dialog mode and situations based on using the experiences of students, electronic content produced by both sides of the learning flow (teacher and student), social networks and internet sites 5- Changing the educational and physical environment of the classroom from its traditional state to a happy environment with maximum participation of learners in learning process, 5- changing the evaluation from the paper-pencil mode to a combination of different methods such as  using electronic and self-assessment methods. These changes indicate a change in the perspective in this regard that the necessary trend to change the education and the emergence of the flipped classroom approach has been provided. Using the features of the flipped classroom, we achieve a new concept of learning to meet the needs of the learners of the digital age.

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to synthesize the findings of different studies and gain a general understanding of the effectiveness of psychological interventions on academic procrastination. The study population consisted of available full-text Articles, dissertations, and research projects published from 2011 to 2021 in quarterly publications and scientific research journals. Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and sensitivity analysis, 136 effect sizes from 83 initial studies were analyzed using CMA2 software. The results revealed a statistically significant combined effect size for both fixed and random effect models, and the combined effect size for the random-effects model based on Cohen's criterion was large (ES = 1.47). In reducing academic procrastination, the findings indicated a high effect of self-regulation intervention compared to other interventions. Also, examining the variables of gender and educational level of the learners as moderating variables in the research showed that the gender of the subjects had no effect on the effectiveness of the psychological interventions, and the efficacy of interventions had a significant difference in the educational levels. This research has implications for therapists and counselors in line with the effectiveness of psychological interventions, especially the training of self-regulation components, to improve students' academic procrastination by providing programs.

Abstract

Virtual education was quickly used in the country's universities during the Corona era, and there are doubts about its quality. In this study, the evaluation model of virtual education in higher education during the corona epidemic has been presented. The current study is an applied-developmental study in terms of its purpose, and it is a cross-sectional survey research in terms of the method and time frame of data collection. Semi-structured interview and ISM questionnaire were used to collect data. The community of participants of this research includes faculty members and administrators of Tehran University of Management. Sampling continued with a purposeful method until theoretical saturation was reached, and 17 professors and managers participated in it. In order to analyze the data obtained from the interview, the method of qualitative analysis of the theme was used and the dimensions and evaluation components of virtual education in higher education were identified. In the following, the structural-interpretive method was used to determine the relationships and design the final model. Based on the results of qualitative analysis, 13 main themes and 71 sub-themes were identified. The findings show that the planning and support of virtual education affect the quality of information, system and hardware platforms of virtual education. These factors affect teacher-learner interaction, cooperative education and educational interaction and further empower professors and students. In the shadow of empowerment, the efficiency and effectiveness of virtual education can be achieved, and this efficiency and effectiveness will eventually lead to the development of virtual education.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the current pattern of using information and communication technology (ICT) in exceptional schools. This research was conducted with a qualitative approach and a data-based method. The statistical population includes all agents involved in the use of Fava in exceptional schools, who were selected through purposeful criterion-based sampling. The data is obtained through semi-structured interviews with fifteen teachers of special schools, five school principals and three middle managers of Mashhad Special Education Department. In order to analyze the data, open, axial and selective coding method was used. Lincoln and Cuban criteria were used to ensure validity and reliability. The results of the research show twenty-six key concepts that, in the form of a paradigm model, include lack of planning and a non-specialist view of the use of FAVA in exceptional schools as a central category and causal conditions (skill weakness, attitude weakness, financial and infrastructural challenges) ), contextual factors (management factors of exceptional schools and environmental-contextual factors), facilitating intervention conditions (training and professional development of teachers, needs assessment, support), restrictive intervention conditions ( Organizational and environmental challenges, political interference and individual and executive obstacles), strategies (renewing the approach to curriculum planning, designing a strategic plan in the field of FAVA application, guidance and quality orientation) and consequences (decrease in efficiency and effectiveness) of the organization. .

Abstract

Students, as one of the main axes of the education system, play the most important role in the learning process. It is obvious that students' academic performance depends on the degree of their acquired or learned abilities in school subjects, and this variable itself is also influenced by factors. The aim of the present study was to investigate the predictive role of implicit intelligence and multiple intelligences in student`s academic performance with the mediating role of academic engagement. The research method was a descriptive and correlation study. Statistical population was including the entire students in the high school in Ashkzar city in 2020-2021 that 245 individuals were selected through voluntary sampling method. To collect data from questionnaires implicit intelligence, multiple intelligence and academic engagement scales was used. The results showed that both components of implicit intelligence (incremental beliefs and entity beliefs) and the components of logical – mathematical intelligence, interpersonal intelligence and musical intelligence from the multiple intelligence variable, are able to indirectly predict academic performance. In other words, the results showed that incremental beliefs (0.06), entity beliefs (0.03), logical-mathematical intelligence (0.12) and interpersonal intelligence (0.04) predict academic performance positively, by mediating academic engagement and musical intelligence (-0.04) predict academic performance negatively, by mediating academic engagement in high school students. So, based on these results, increasing beliefs of intelligence can increase academic performance and on the other hand, some types of intelligence can play a positive and negative role on academic performance.
