In the first step, after studying the literature and background and conducting a semi-structured interview with the experts of the educational system, the literacies of the current era were extracted, and then in the second step, two special checklists for the Faculty members and students were distributed. The results of Friedman's test showed that both faculty members and students have selected information literacy as their first priority, then health literacy was ranked second, students selected emotional literacy as the third grade, while Faculty members' financial literacy was ranked third. Both faculty members and students chose media literacy as the fourth grade. Also, the results of independent t-test for comparing the study subjects showed that from the view point of faculty members the financial, computer, research and educational Literacies are significantly more important while from students' viewpoint environmental, and emotional Literacies are significantly more important. Also for other Literacies, we did not find any difference. In the end, a conceptual model was proposed to prioritize the literacies from the viewpoint of students and faculty members.
