The purpose of this research is to uncover the effect of e-learning education with emphasis on the use of smart boards on motivation and academic achievement of the students in the Biology lesson and to compare it with lecture method. The method of this study is quasi-experimental (two-group design: experiment and control) and the statistical population of this study includes all boys who are studying in the tenth grade of empirical sciences of Secondary School in Borujen in the academic year 1395-1396. The documentary method was used to collect the theoretical foundations and literature, and to evaluate the hypotheses, a questionnaire (made written exam) was used to measure the educational achievement, Hartler's standard educational motivation questionnaire was used to measure academic motivation. To analyze and evaluate the hypotheses, statistical software spss21 was used. Regarding the normality of the data, a parametric test of the difference between two groups (independent T) was used. According to the findings, there is a significant difference between the students of the control and experiment group in educational motivation and achievement of Biology lesson. Th results show the role and importance of e-learning specially using smart boards in teaching.

Considering the importance of political participation of student-teachers, the aim of this study was to evaluate factors such as the students’ adherence to religious beliefs and non-academic study on their political participation. All student-teachers in Salman college of Shiraz Farhangian university were the statistical population of the research., the number of samples was decided to be 196 through using the table of krè ches and Morgan. Because of the number of student-teachers entrances in years 2012 & 2013, stratified random sampling was used. Questionnaire was used to collect data, and its validity and reliability was analyzed and approved. In analyzing data, Pearson and ANOVA correlation coefficient and descriptive statistics in SPSS were used. Results showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between the level of adherence to religious beliefs and political participation of student-teachers; there was also a significant and positive relationship between the level of non-academic study and political participation of student-teachers.

The aim of this study was to analyze the images of first-grade math book in terms of point of view and the shot with developmental characteristics students. The research method was content analysis of the Categorical. The study population included all the signboard of first-grade math book. Data based on the assessment criteria of images were collected. The results showed that tilt thot of 40, 32 and 28 percent of the signboard images were respectively: eye level, high angle and consolidated. Pictures of the pan shot were as follows: 52% of images full shot, 36% of images two-thirds face, 8% of images Combined and 4% of images Combined. Pictures of view far and near were as follows: Medium long shot 36%, long shot 24%, medium shot 16% and Medium clos shot12%. The result is that the number of signboard images with developmental characteristics of students does not fit and needs to be revised.

One of the key aspects of learning is the acquiring and integrating the old and new sciences which entails acquiring process and new learning skills. The concept maps as a learning strategy can provide the pupils with adequate mastering on pre requisites. This study aims to determine effectiveness of group conceptual mapping on cognitive-emotional indicators of chemistry courses. Participants include 147 first grade high school female students and the intended educational content is chemistry. The research project is designed based on a quasi-experimental plan along with post-test and comparison group. Participants are selected using single-stage cluster sampling and specified to the test group (60 individuals) and control group (87 individuals) randomly. In test group, group conceptual maps were drawn by participants after teaching, while in control group participants were learning the same contents with common methods. Cognitive and emotional indicators of the study were evaluated by a researcher designed test respectively. Results of the study show conceptual group mapping has positive effect on students’ learning areas(remembering, application, discovery and innovation) in chemistry courses.

The video projector as an educational technology, due to the activation of various senses, has many functions, but its use among teachers is not desirable. The purpose of this study is to investigate the teachers' attitude towards video projector technology. The research method is survey and the research population is the teachers of three cities of Yasuj, Dehdasht and Gachsaran. 304 students were selected as sample from 56 schools using stratified random sampling To measure the dependent variable respondents were asked whether they used the video projector in the current academic year or not. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to measure the attitude of the teachers to the video projector. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were determined through construct validity and Alpha Cronbach's ethods respectively. Based on descriptive findings, the use of video projector is low and only 39. 1% of teachers use this device Logistic regression test showed that the cognitive attitude toward video projector has a significant relationship with the ratio of the chance of video projector use and can explain the variance of 0. 15. Finally, it is concluded that in order to increase the use of video projector as educational technology, it is necessary to first change the attitude of teachers towards this educational technology.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of anger control training on the students’ resilience, quality of life, and their misbehavior. A quasi-experimental study was conducted The statistical population of the study included all students in 1396. In a cluster sampling method, 60 individuals were selected as sample (30 test group and 30 control group). To collect data, 3 standard resiliency questionnaires and quality of life questionnaire and maladaptive behavior were used. Data were analyzed using covariance test. The findings showed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the post-test (p = 0. 001). Also, there was a significant difference between the groups in terms of resiliency subscales, quality of life and maladaptive behavior (p <0. 05). It seems that the use of anger management skills training has been effective in increasing the resilience, quality of life, and reducing the maladaptive behaviors of the trainees.
