The Corona epidemic was initially considered a problem in the health field, but it suddenly covered all the different fields of the world. In the meantime, one of the fields that underwent a great transformation was education. The current research seeks to identify and categorize the dimensions of the challenges of education in the era of Corona in primary school. It is practical in terms of purpose, descriptive in terms of data collection, and qualitative of phenomenological type in terms of nature of the data which was done using the exploratory strategy. The statistical population was the teachers, parents and students of Saleh Abad city and its villages, who were selected for the interview using the non-random sampling method and according to the rule of saturation and maximum diversity (10 teachers, 10 parents and 10 students). A semi-structured interview was used to collect data. To validate the qualitative data, the participant review method was used. The information was coded using maxqda software version 2020 and by thematic analysis method. By analyzing the themes of virtual education, problems were identified in "physical","psychological","educational"and"infrastructural" fields. The analyzes showed that due to the lack of a suitable platform, especially in the deprived areas of the country, and the physical and psychological conditions of the students in the elementary level, the implementation of virtual education in the context of the Shad network and radio and television has problems such as academic failure, lack of sleep, lack of motivation, excessive fatigue, dry atmosphere and boring education, dropping out of school, failure to observe course budgeting, inefficient evaluation, failure to fully teach courses, inability to recognize students, anxiety and stress, aggressiveness, dependence on virtual space and inactivity created for teachers, students and their parents, which by reforming the virtual education method can help reduce these problems and increase the benefit of this type of education.

This research aimed to compar the effectiveness of direct math education and play therapy on special math learning disorder and math motivation. The method of this research is semi-experimental, pre-test -post-test with a control group. The statistical population was the students of the second district in Sanandaj and the statistical sample was 45 people who were selected in a purposeful way and randomly placed in three groups of 15 people. To collect data, the Wechsler test, Tabrizi et al’s academic performance test (2021) and Nemati’s math motivation (2010) were used. The data were analyzed at two descriptive and inferential levels using SPSS software. The findings showed that direct mathematics education and play therapy were effective with 95% certainty on special mathematical learning disorders. Also the findings from multivariate covariance analysis to investigate the role of direct mathematics education and play therapy on mathematical motivation shows the influence of independent variables on dependent variables. There was no difference between the effects of direct math education and play therapy on specific math learning disorder. Regarding the effectiveness of direct math education and play therapy on math motivation, there was a difference and the effectiveness of direct education was more than play therapy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of internationalizing of educational sciences curriculum in Islamic Azad University. It is applied in terms of purpose and survey in terms of descriptive method. The statistical population consisted of 101 faculty members of educational sciences department of the Islamic Azad University in the cities of Tehran and Karaj. Due to the limited number of the population, all individuals were considered as a sample. The data collection tool is a researcher-made questionnaire with 70 questions that has 13 dimensions (new technologies, research, curriculum design, educational resources and content, teaching methods, evaluation, communication language, financial resources, human resources, international cooperation, cultural compatibility, an approach to internationalization of the curriculum and organization and executive management). Content and face validity were confirmed using 5 subject matter experts’ opinions and the reliability of the questionnaire was calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.97. Findings show that the internationalization of educational science curriculum in Azad University faces many problems in all dimensions and requires structural, institutional and educational solutions that can be partially solved by observing standards and providing various infrastructure and equipment.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using flash cards on students' internal and external mathematical motivation. It was conducted with a quasi-experimental method with a pre- and post-test design with an unequal control group. The statistical population was all female students of the 10th grade of humanities in Abadan city in the academic year of 1402-1401. The available sample included 50 students in two groups of 25. The tools for collecting mathematical motivation data was the Hampton questionnaire (2014), which included 10 items related to intrinsic motivation and 10 items related to extrinsic motivation. Before and after the test, the motivation questionnaire was distributed among the students and they answered the questions. The experimental group was trained for 12 sessions of 70 minutes using flash cards. The analysis was done by the normalized gain method. The positive effect of teaching using flash cards on the internal motivation of mathematics is significant at the error level of 1% and the effect size value in the structure of internal motivation was 0.37, which is a medium effect size. In the structure of external motivation, the probability value was greater than 0.05. Therefore, no significant difference was observed between the two groups in the training using flash cards.

The purpose of current research was to evaluate the teaching and learning process of virtual learning based on Tyler's model in Fars province elementary schools. The method was a descriptive survey. The statistical population included elementary school teachers of Fars province, of which 191 were selected by random sampling. The measuring tool was a 47-item researcher-made questionnaire. Content validity based on the CVR index for the objective component 0.77, content component 0.95, teaching-learning strategies component 0.94, evaluation component 0.98. And the total score is 0.91. Also, the composite reliability values and the average variance extracted showed that the tool has construct validity. The reliability of the tool was also obtained based on Cronbach's alpha of 0.99. The test used was T-Test. The results showed that the quality of learning in the objective component and teaching-learning strategies in the management of virtual education processes is not in a favorable condition. The quality of the content in managing the learning processes of virtual learning based on Tyler's model is in a favorable condition. Also, the results indicated that the evaluation quality is in an average state. Based on the results of the research, it can be said that the education system of Iran should strengthen the required platforms in order to improve virtual learning.

Content analysis is one of the documentary and covert methods that deals with the systematic, objective, quantitative and generalizable examination of the communication messages in the text and as a result does not enter into the interpretation and semiotics of the message content.The purpose of the present research is to evaluate the third-grade Persian textbook of 2018-2019 based on the Clouse method and assess the degree of adherence of its content to the principles of planning in setting the structure. The case study was the third-grade Persian book, a random sample of 26 third-grade elementary school students in Shiraz city was selected to implement the cloze method. A researcher-made test was used to collect information. The analysis of the information showed that the content of the material is self-learning and independent. So it is suggested that the teachers use the students' abilities in teaching this lesson in the virtual education or teaching in multi-grade schools and focus more on other lessons.
