Identifying and ranking the dimensions of the creativity-oriented curriculum with a postmodernist approach (Case study: Education of Mazandaran province)

2022

ARTICLE INFORMATION Background and Aim: strengthening creativity in the classroom has countless positive and lasting effects and makes learners thinkers, curious, critical and risktakers in adulthood; Therefore, the general goal of the current research was to identify and rank the dimensions of creativity-oriented curriculum with a postmodernist approach. Methods: This research is applied in terms of purpose, which was conducted with a mixed approach (qualitative and quantitative) with an exploratory design. A descriptive survey method was used in the quantitative part. Its statistical population consists of 20 senior managers and education experts of Mazandaran province in the qualitative section and 2653 managers, deputy heads and department heads of education departments and 2653 people in the quantitative section. They stated that in the qualitative part of the purposeful sampling method and taking into account the saturation law, the number of people was 10, and in the quantitative part, based on the Cochran formula, the number of 338 people was selected using the cluster-stratified random sampling method as a sample. Statistics were selected. A researchermade questionnaire with 61 questions was used to collect data. The formal and content validity of the tool was approved by experts, and their combined reliability and Cronbach's alpha were calculated above 0.7, which was approved. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The results showed that the curriculum based on creativity with a postmodernist approach has four dimensions "objectives, content, teaching method and evaluation" and each dimension has three components "knowledge, attitude and skill". Conclusion: The effect of all dimensions and components on the creativity-oriented curriculum was confirmed with a post-modernist approach, and then the teaching method with a factor load of 0.856 has a greater effect, and the goal dimension with a factor load of 0.761 has a lower effect.

The Position of Artistic Education Aspects, Content Structure and Three-Dimensional Model of Curriculum in the Art and Culture Books of the Junior High School

2018

Flourishing students' artistic capacities is among the major missions of education in the Document of Fundamental Reform. The five axes of artistic education including communication with nature, aesthetics, artistic production, familiarity with cultural and artistic history and heritage, and artistic criticism, along with the content structure of culture and art textbooks including visual arts, calligraphy, traditional arts, vocal arts and performing arts are all issues that should be considered by planners in developing potential human abilities. This study involved the content analysis of the culture and art textbooks of the junior secondary system in 2015-2016. Images, texts, and activities were taken as the unit of record. The encoding method was deductive following the topical and structural aspects of culture and art education. To validate the encoding process, a second rater encoded 10 percent of the content, indicating a correlation of 0.89. The results revealed that artistic production, aesthetics, artistic criticism, familiarity with cultural and artistic history and heritage and communicating with nature are the most significant aspects of artistic education respectively. Additionally, visual arts, traditional arts, calligraphy, vocal arts, and performing arts are the main priorities. The study of the 3D model of curriculum structure showed the application of all three activity types (prescriptive, semi-prescriptive and non-prescriptive) in the textbooks, but their content needs to be reviewed regarding the coordination of activities with the educational content presented, the form of content integration, balance and diversity, and the lack of raising students' motivation and creativity.

2018

The purpose of this study was to investigate of scientific productivity and co-authorship network of Iranians' researchers on physical education and sport science in Web of Science during 2006-2016. The scientometric approach and network analysis Method were used and deals with mapping co-authorship networks. For analysis and visualization of co-authorship networks, Histcite, Nodexl and VOSviewr Softwares were used. The data consists of all scientific productivity of Iranians' researchers in mentioned field which was published in Web of Science. The results show that in this period, there are 604 scientific document related to Iranian researchers in the field, of which 487 papers are in the article formats in 82 journals. The majority of collaborations of the Iranian researchers has been with United States, Britain and Canada. As well as the most productive organizations are related to Islamic Azad universities, medical sciences Tehran and Guilan and The most productive auth...

بررسی و تحلیل موضوعات و مفاهیم دینی کتابهای شعر کودکان و نوجوانان در بین سالهای 1390 الی 1393

پژوهش‌های دستوری و بلاغی , 2019

در ادبیات کودک و نوجوان به‌ویژه در سال‌های اخیر، موضوعات مذهبی حضور پررنگ و چشمگیری داشته و شاعران و نویسندگان، اقبال زیادی به نگارش داستان و سرودن شعر با مضامین دینی نشان داده‌اند. ادبیات کودک و نوجوان مخصوصا به زبان شعر ‌که جنبه‌‌ تأثیرگذاری‌‌اش به دلیل آهنگ و قافیه آن و نیز کوتاه بودنش نسبت به داستان، متجلی‌تر است‌، رسانه‌ای جذاب و کم هزینه برای فرهنگ هر جامعه می‌باشد. در این راستا، محتوا و مفهوم اشعاری که برای کودکان به‌‌کار برده می‌شوند، بسیار مهم هستند. توجه به محتوا و آنچه اشعار به کودکان و نوجوانان انتقال می‌دهند، برای هر شخص بزرگسال در مقام پدر، مادر، آموزگار، مربی و... امری مهم و با اهمیت تلقی می‌شود و می‌تواند در تعلیم و تربیت کودکان نقش بسزایی داشته باشد. به همین منظور، کتاب‌های شعر کودکان و نوجوانان بین سال‌های 1390 الی 1393 مورد بررسی و تحلیل قرار گرفته‌است. هدف آن است که میزان استفاده شاعران از انواع موضوعات و مفاهیم دینی مشخص و همچنین کیفیت محتوای اشعار نیز بررسی شود. نتایج پژوهش نشان می‌‌دهد که در برخی از موضوعات دینی، اشعار کمی توسط شاعران سروده شده‌است و همچنین بر...

Producing a Persian Text Tokenizer Corpus Focusing on Its Computational Linguistics Considerations

Signal and Data Processing

The main task of the tokenization is to divide the sentences of the text into its constituent units and remove punctuation marks (dots, commas, etc.). Each unit is a continuous lexical or grammatical writing chain that is an independent semantic unit. Tokenization occurs at the word level and the extracted units can be used as input to other components such as stemmer. The requirement to create this tool is to identify and recognize the units that are known as independent semantic units in Persian language. This tool detects word boundaries in texts and converts the text into a sequence of words. In the English language, many activities have been done in the field of text tokenization and many tools have been development; such as: Stanford, Ragel, ANTLR, JFLex, JLex, Flex and Quex. In recent decades, valuable researches have also been conducted in the field of tokenization in Persian language that all of them have worked on the lexical and syntactic layer. In the current research, we tried to focus on the semantic layer in addition to those two layers. Persian texts usually have two simple but important problems. The first problem is multi-word tokens that result from connecting one word to the next. Another problem is polysyllabic units, which result from the separation of words that together form a lexical unit. Tokenizer is one of the language preprocessing tools that is widely used in text analysis. This component recognizes the center of words in texts and turns it into a sequence of words for later analysis. Variety in Persian script and nonobservance of the rules of separation and spelling of words on the one hand and the lexical complexities
