According to the role of the textbooks in the concept of gender, this research was conducted by the aim of the investigation on the perception of the female students’ experiences perception on the gender concept in the high school textbooks. This research is qualitative and it is based on the interpretative paradigm conducted by the phenomenology research. The data were collected by semi-structured interviews with twelve female students of first and second years of Bachelor of Science degree in order to complete data collection. In this study, for measuring of the reliability of the data, the validity and reliability of the data, transferability and dependability were used. For analysis of the interview data Van Mannen method was used. The results of this research are based on three themes of feeling of gender inequality, the role and characteristics of woman and gender inequality consequences. The results show that feeling of gender inequality has two secondary occupational and political themes. Personal role, social role, physical characteristics and emotional characteristics are secondary themes of the role and characteristics of woman and consequences including increase of progress motivation and social dynamicity lead to reducing of the women social status and gender identity crisis.

The aim of this study was comparison of memory and attention’s profile in students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Social (Pragmatic) Communication Disorder with normal students. The research method is causal-comparative. Using simple random sampling method, four groups of 15 subjects (from each group 15 people) were selected from one of the educational district of Tehran. Tools used in this study include Continuous Performance Test (CPT), Wechsler Intelligence Scale for children revised, clinical interview and cheek-list based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5). Data analyzed by MANOVA and Benfroni. The results showed that the groups had a significant difference in attention and memory abilities (P<0.001). Normal students were higher in attention and memory ability, than other groups with disorder.

This study aimed to provide the causal model of academic cheating based on individual and contextual factors with the mediating role academic self-efficacy. Methods: This study was descriptive and correlational. Statistical population includes all upper secondary girl students in khorramabad citythat 9981 was of through the rules of thumb kline the sample size of 240 person determination and through stratified random sampling method were selected. To collect the required data from questionnaires academic engagement zerang (1391), academic ethics hosseini nezad & et al (1394), educational citizenship behaviours golparvar (1387), religious beliefs performance golzarei (1380), religious attitude golreiz & berahani (1383), perceptions of classroom quality Gentry, Gable and Rizza (2002), educational justice golparvar (1387), family emotional climate questionnaire of Hill Berne (1964), family adaptability shakeri (1382), family adaptability cohesion samani (1381), Morgan and Jinks academic self-efficacy (1999) and academic cheating aliverdini, janalizade & amrani (1394) was used.

This study examined the efficacy of motivation management training on students’ academic buoyancy and self-concept. The pretest–posttest quasi-experimental. The population in this study included all high school students in Sari city study used a cluster random sampling method to select subjects for the experimental (20 subjects) and control (20 subjects) groups. First, a pretest was conducted with both groups. Then, only the experimental group received the motivation management training. Finally, a posttest was conducted with both groups to determine the effect of the training. For the purpose of data collection, the researchers administered two questionnaires An academic achievement and academic self-concept questionnaire (grade point average requirement) was used for the pretest and posttest. The results showed that the motivation management training increased academic buoyancy. Also the results showed that the motivation management training increased self-concept.Motivation management training can improve academic buoyancy. Also motivation management training can improve self-concept.

The purpose of this study is presenting a causal model of factors affecting high school teachers΄technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK).In terms of objectives,this study is an applied research and in terms of method of collecting and analyzing data it is a descriptive and correlational research. The participants were 255 high school teachers in Shiraz(based on Cochran Formula) who were selected through stratified random and cluster sampling method among 5824 in service teachers in Shiraz in 1393-1394.This study employed a combination of two instruments tocollect data: theTechnological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) instrument developed and validated by Sahin(2011) for evaluatingCK, PK, PCK, and TCK andChai, et al,(2011) questionnairefor assessing TK, TPK and TPACK.The path analysis was used to examine the research hypotheses. Findings showed thatSignificant positive correlationsexist between the TPACK constructs .CK and PK had direct and indirect effects onTPACK, while TK had only indirect effect on TPACK.

Academic performance in each society indicates the success of the educational system in targeting and paying attention to individual needs. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to the role of self-determination on academic performance in adolescent students with mediating academic engagement and attitude toward e-learning. The present research is an applied and correlation research method by Structural Equation Modeling. A total of 300 people (150 females and 150 males) were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling from all adolescents aged 12 to 14 years old in public and non-profit schools in Tehran. All of them completed La Guardia et al self-identification questionnaires, Fredricks, & McColskey academic engagement, and Pilli et al attitude toward E-learning. For data analysis, Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling have been used. The results showed that self-determination, educational conflict and attitude toward e-learning and educational performance were significantly correlated. Also, the results of the model showed that self-determination (0.81), educational conflict (0.31) and attitude toward E-learning (0.22) have a direct effect on academic performance. In addition, self-determination due to educational conflict and attitude toward e-learning on academic performance (0.45) had indirect effect. Finally, the results of this study have shown that self-determination, academic engagement and attitude toward E-learning can have a positive and significant effect on academic performance and use them to enhance the academic performance of students.

This study examined the relationshipbetweenhidden curriculum, motivational beliefs, and entrepreneurship among students of Payam Noor University (PNU) of Western Azerbaijan Province. The research method is descriptive-correlational. The population included all undergraduate students of PNU centers in Azerbaijan Province in the academic year of 2016-2017. Out of this population, 1,000 undergraduate students at the PNU centers of West Azerbaijan Province Were selected based on multi stage cluster as the sample of the study. In so doing, among all PNU centers of Western Azerbaijan Province some centers were selected randomly. Then among the selected centers the participants of the study were selected through stratified random sampling method. Research instruments included a standard hidden curriculum questionnaire( Taghipoor and Ghafari, 2010), entrepreneurship test (Robinson et al., 1991) and motivational strategies questionnaire (Pintrich and Degroot ,1990). For data analysis, initially descriptive statistics including mean, variance, and standard deviation were calculated. Then multiple regression was run for inferential statistics. The results showed that there was significant relationship between hidden curriculum components including interaction, organizational structure, social environment and physical structure and the motivational beliefs and entrepreneurship of the PNU students at 0.01 level.
