The purpose of this research is to present the model of cultural knowledge needed by primary school teachers in the province. Qualitative research approach and grounded theory method was used. The field of research includes professors of Farhangian University of Kerman, primary teachers of the province. In this research, in order to obtain in-depth information, 13 knowledgeable people were interviewed. Data analysis was done in Maxqda software and through open, central and selective coding steps. To measure the reliability of the designed pattern, the reliability index of stability was calculated, and this index was equal to 80%, and the reliability of the coding was confirmed. The research results resulted in 94 open codes among 282 concepts and 20 main categories of findings. The categories include knowledge of local literature, knowledge of local community, knowledge of local history and geography, knowledge of local business practices, knowledge of local arts, knowledge of local games and entertainment, knowledge of local food and its effect on mood and learning, knowledge Handicrafts, indigenization of teachers, legal requirements, religion, customs, focused curriculum and large amount of content, modernization and indigenous culture, development of knowledge and skills of teachers in the field of indigenous curriculum design and implementation, allocation of in-service courses, teachers' skills In knowing and using the local dialect, it serves to preserve and develop local culture, historical cultural identification, and the effectiveness of the teaching and learning process. Finally, the model of cultural knowledge of primary school teachers in Kerman province was extracted.

This study sought to identify infertile elements in religious education at the upper secondary level. Using a qualitative survey method, researchers interviewed 48 humanities-track students in Qom through purposive and systematic approaches. The findings revealed several shortcomings in religious education content. These included repetitive topics such as the purpose of creation, resurrection, and prayer; stereotypical themes like hijab and freedom or the necessity of resurrection; and complex, hard-to-understand concepts such as divine predestination and the occultation of the Imam. Students also encountered conflicting messages (e.g., about human creation), gender-insensitive material (e.g., roles and characteristics, marriage preparation), and content with limited practical relevance to daily life—such as despair over the afterlife, political ideologies, and European history. Additionally, the curriculum included both overly general and highly specific topics, like the barriers to achieving goals, hijab in other religions, temporary marriage rulings, and free will, which students found disconnected from their mental concerns. Other issues included lack of engagement with students’ actual cognitive and emotional interests—such as distant eschatological themes or historical events with little resonance for them. These elements collectively signify the infertility of the religious curriculum. If left unaddressed, this infertility can lead to reduced student interest, prevent the meaningful internalization of religious teachings, and ultimately undermine the development and strengthening of students’ religious identity.

The aim of the present study is to develop a desirable model of education in primary school based on an integrated STEAM approach. The paradigm of this research is qualitative. The method of conducting this study is qualitative content analysis of the deductive type. The population of this study includes all sources, including articles and Latin research conducted in the field of STEAM from 2010 to 2023, and using purposive sampling, about 25 articles were selected as the sample of the present study. The research data were analyzed using the qualitative data analysis software, MAXQDA, version 2018, which was coded after extracting the main categories. In this way, the coordinates of the main elements, namely the purpose, content, method, and evaluation of this approach were obtained. The findings of the research indicate that, in terms of objectives, this approach seeks to integrate, integrate, and apply knowledge in order to train lifelong, creative, and problem-solving learners to effectively face the challenges ahead. The content is selected in a combined format from the constituent areas of STEAM and is context-oriented and practical. This approach follows active and constructivist methods and emphasizes the acquisition of information from multiple sources and simultaneous attention to the process and product in evaluation. Considering the information obtained about the above four elements, finally, the desired model of education in the primary school based on the integrated STEAM approach was developed.

The purpose of this study was "a comparative study of the methods of using new educational technologies in the universities of Iran and other Asian countries". This research was qualitative method and descriptive-comparative in terms of type. The field of research includes Iranian universities, which have benefited from the distance and virtual education system, e-learning and new technologies,, as well as open universities of the world including Japan and China, Indira Gandhi University of India, National University of India, APU University of Malaysia, Allameh Al-Iqbal University of Pakistan, University of Tarbaka Indonesia, Virtual University of Singapore, etc Anadolu University of Turkey was in 1402. The sampling method was purposive. The criteria for selecting these countries were universities that organize distance education. The unit of analysis was "technologies used." Information was collected through document screening, To compare the data, the four-step Brody method was used. The findings showed that the methods of using new educational technologies in Iranian universities are learning management system and mobile tools and to a limited extent MOOC courses, and in Asian universities there is also metaverse and artificial intelligence. New educational technologies in Iranian and Asian universities have similarities and differences in educational facilities and tools in the use of learning management systems. The obtained results have shown a reason for examining the different methods of educational technology and implementing the most appropriate method in the education process,

Concerning the advancing issues of localization, it has been shown that curriculum localization faces enormous challenges. Therefore, the present study was conducted to identify the challenges of localization of curricula at home and abroad. The present study is of qualitative type and synthesis research method. The inclusion criteria of researchers in this study were related to the researcher's goal and localization of curricula between 1376-1386 and 2000-2019. Coding method was used to analyze the data. It has been found that localization of their food programs with severe challenges such as, global challenge, teacher training, quality quality, design, execution, lack of time facilities and language challenge and electronic drawing containing subculture culture and ethnic diversity in It is Iran. In addition to synthesis, proposed solutions to address these challenges are also providedConcerning the advancing issues of localization, it has been shown that curriculum localization faces enormous challenges.

The main goal of the current research is to analyze the content of images in the biology department of Experimental science books for the first high school course Based on the six areas of the Fundamental Transformation of Education document through the Shannon entropy method. This research is an applied type and its method is qualitative that is a type of directional content analysis. The statistical population are pictures of the biology sections of experimental science textbooks (1401-1402) and the document of the fundamental transformation of education (1390). Due to the nature of the subject sampling was not done and the whole society was studied. According to the findings, from the total frequency of 170 images, in all three books, the most attention has been paid to the field of religious, devotional and moral education. The least amount of attention in the 8th grade book is to the social and political field and in the 9th grade book to the religious, devotional, moral; and scientific and technological fields. The 7th grade book only deals with four areas. In reviewing this book, paying attention to two areas of economic and professional education; And scientific and technological education seems necessary. In addition, it was determined using Shannon's entropy method, In the experimental science books of the first secondary school, the highest coefficient of importance is related to the field of scientific and technological education, and the lowest coefficient of importance is related to the field of religious, religious and moral education.
