In the last few decades, how to increase students’ involvement with academic tasks, as one of the important predictors of students' academic performance, has attracted the researchers. Therefore, in order to systematically understand the transformational process that led the student to a learning conflict, the causal model was presented and validated from the social and cognitive resources affecting the educational involvement. To this end, 511 third year high school students in Hamedan (256 males and 255 females) were selected by random cluster sampling in the academic year of 1963-96. They submitted to the external and internal transformational capital (Minnesota, 2005), psychological capital (Lutans, 2007) and academic engagement (Salmela Arro and Apadaya, 2012). The data were analyzed using structural equation method. Based on the findings, the hypothesized model of academic engagement in the research society was adjusted (X2 / DF = 0. 62, 014 / 0 RMSEA =). The mediating role of internal and psychological capitals in the relationship between external transformation capital and academic involvement was significant and positive. So by increasing the internal development capital and psychological capital, conditions can be created for more student involvement.

This research was carried out with the aim of investigating the effective factors on the quality of education and teaching at Ardebil University of Medical Sciences in mixed method. In fact, by combining the qualitative method of "focus group interviews" and the quantitative "descriptive-survey" method. In the qualitative section, the factors and factors affecting the quality of teaching were identified and classified from the perspective of professors and students of the university's leading universities. In a small section, 354 people (78 teachers and 276 students of science) were selected through a researcher-made questionnaire that were selected by simple random sampling method. Then, the data were analyzed using SPSS22 software with Manova & Friedman Ranking Statistical Method. The findings of the qualitative research section showed that the factors of individual and professional faculty, successful implementation of curriculum, educational evaluation, class management, physical space of the university, factors of outsourcing (education) and in-structural (environmental-organizational) highest They have a role in the quality of teaching and learning at the University of Cultural Studies. Also, in a quantitative study, the findings showed that there is no difference in the factors of the extracted factors, except for internal and external factors, from the viewpoint of the male and female students. In terms of factors ranking, from the perspective of the faculty members of the internal structural (environmental-organizational) factors, Individual and professional faculty members and outsourcing factors (education) were ranked first to third, and from the viewpoint of academic students, the individual and professional characteristics of faculty members were ranked first, environmental factors-organizational and outsourcing (education) In the second and third ranks. As a result, it should be said that in the quality of teaching of Farhangian University in Ardebil, many factors have been involved, among which the most influences are the individual and professional characteristics of faculty members and the internal structural factors of the university (environmental-organizational), which require special attention.

The research method is based on purpose applied and according to the method is descriptive survey type. The statistical population includes all students and professors of primary education at Farhangian University. Random cluster sampling was used for sampling. Accordingly, 30 educators with at least five years of teaching experience and 220 teacher-students of elementary school teaching course from 6 campuses in the country were selected in this study. Six researcher-made questionnaires and teachers' checklist were used to determine status of the curriculum implemented. Cronbach alpha coefficient was calculated for research tools. Collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The findings of this study showed that the level of consistency of the components of the goals, content, teaching-learning strategies and the method of evaluation of the planned curriculum with the curriculum implemented was moderate from the viewpoint of the professors and less than moderate from the viewpoint of the teacher-students and the results of the behavior list.

The purpose of the present study is the pathology of the curriculum of the sixth grade of the elementary school. In this regard, three dimensions of structural, executive, and teaching problems are discussed. The research methodology is based on two quantitative and qualitative approaches. Statistical population was all sixth grade students of Yazd city. Using Cochran formula, 369 students were randomly selected. The research instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire that confirmed the validity and reliability by teachers and professors. In order to analyze quantitative data, ANOVA with repeated measure, Mauchly’ s Test of Sphericity, inter-subject effects test, multiple comparison test and Friedman rank variance test were used. Coding was also used to analyze qualitative data. Findings show that the main problems of the writing curriculum include structural problems with a mean rank (2. 8), teaching problems with an average rating (2. 6) and executive problems with an average rating (1. 86). Also, the most important problems in the structural dimension were, respectively, the weakness of the general information, the lack of skills in writing the sentences of the beginning of the writing, and the lack of skills in the division of the essay into the sections of the beginning, the text and the conclusion. Also, in the area of executive issues, the most important challenges include the lack of freedom in choosing the csubjects, lack of tranquility and concentration in thinking, the uniteracing class, and the unimportance of teaching this lesson to students. In the dimension of teaching problems, the most important challeings were the selection of stereotypical and uniform subjects by teachers, the lack of attention to the expansion of the culture of reading and students' ignorance of the goals of the lesson.

Academic buoyancy, academic engagement and psychological hardiness are effective factors in students learning and play an important eole in academic success. The aim the present study was to investigate the role of academic buoyancy based on students’ perception of academic engagement and psychological hardiness. The method of this study is correlational. Statistical population of this study comprised all of the secondary students of Chaypareh city in the academic year of 2016-2017. By means of stratified clustered sampling a number of 302 students were selected based on chochran’ s formula. Data were collected through Martin & Marsh (2006) academic buoyancy questionnaire, Fredricks, Blumenfeld & Paris (2004) academic engagement and Kiamarsy, Najarian & Mehrabizade honarmand (1377) psychological hardiness. Data were analyzed by pearson correlation, multiple regression analysis through SPSS. The findings showed that there is a positive significant correlation between perception of academic engagement and psychological hardiness with academic buoyancy. The results of regression analysis also revealed that %29 of the total variance of academic buoyancy can be explained by perception of academic engagement and psychological hardiness.

The purpose of the present research was explaining structural relationship between problem solving ability, resiliency and academic burnout in high school girl studs, by using structural equation modeling (SEM). Research method was descriptive – correlation. The statistical society was girls student that they was studying in one grade second course high school in Tehran city in 94-95 academic years. The statistical sample of this research were included 461 girls student high school in Tehran city that they were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling method. The tools Breso burnout questionnaire, problem solving ability inventory Heppner and Peterson (1982) and Conner and Davidson resilience scale. The results indicated that the model had a good fitness with the data. Gained indexes were Chi-Square=114. 255, Comparative Fit Index=0. 962, Goodness Of Fit Index=0. 957, Adjusted Goodness Of Fit Index= 0. 920 and Root Mean Square Error Of Approximation=0. 069. There were direct effects resiliency on academic burnout and indirect effects with intermediating problem solving ability. Resiliency had negative meaningful relationship with academic burnout.
