In the meantime, the nature of the jobs of hospital and medical training centre employees is such that they always face health challenges. Since the close relationship between media and human health is undeniable, this research aimed to present a health promotion model based on the media literacy of the educational staff of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences.

The research method was a qualitative content analysis based on "grounded theory", and the research tool was a semi-structured in-depth interview with the statistical community consisting of experts and prominent professors in the field of health and media, with a purposeful method compared to the selection of statistical samples. The theoretical saturation step was carried out in the data with ten samples. Data analysis was done through coding inspired by Glosser's theory and using MaxQDA software, and then the categories related to the model were extracted.

According to the results, in open coding, there were 258 primary codes; in axial coding, 44 major categories; and in selective coding, eight core categories in the form of causal, contextual, intervening conditions, strategies/measures, consequence and central phenomenon. (Health based on media literacy) were classified. To achieve the research goals based on data-based theorizing, health literacy is the main phenomenon as a logical model. It relies on its understanding of conditions (causal, contextual and intervening), specific strategies/measures and consequences.

The research results show that by moving towards this model, we can witness a fundamental improvement in health based on the media literacy of the educational staff of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences.

 Intellectual capital is a collection of knowledge and information that can be converted into value. One of the essential dimensions of intellectual capital is identifying the factors affecting it. Therefore, the current research aims to describe, analyze and combine the analyses presented on factors affecting intellectual capital in health organizations.

 The research method was quantitative and meta-analytical. The statistical population of the research includes all scientific and research articles, a research project in Mohaghegh Ardabili. In addition, theses available in Mohaghegh Ardabili and Ardabil University of Medical Sciences between 2013-2017, which examined the influence of effective factors On Intellectual Capital, were included. Among the conducted research, 52 cases were selected for review with the purposive sampling method. Data analysis was done using CMA2 and SPSS-v22 software. In order to conduct descriptive statistics, frequency and percent frequency was used. Moreover, inferential statistics were used to calculate the effect size using the G Hedges and fixed and random effect models. The chi-square counting method was used to check the significance of the frequency of studies, and T Vainer's possible combination method was used to combine the effect sizes using the Weiner t probability combination method was used.

 The funnel diagram was used, which showed publication bias in the primary study in the Intellectual Capital variable. To solve this problem, Duvall and Tweedy goodness-of-fit tests were used for both fixed and random effects models. In order to check the homogeneity of the studies, I2 and Q tests were used, which showed that the primary studies were not homogeneous. The effect size calculated for studies under fixed and random models was statistically significant for the investigated variable. Also, Vainer t possible combination results showed a significant difference between the size of the combined effects. Finally, 71 factors affecting intellectual capital were identified, and their effects were evaluated as significant. Among the identification factors, the highest index of the calculated effect size was related to technological entrepreneurship and competitive advantage variables.

 Considering that the variables of technological entrepreneurship and competitive advantage have the highest effect on intellectual capital, this relationship requires more attention from the authorities to the mentioned variables.

This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the indicators of intellectual capital in Ardabil University of Medical Sciences and explaining the status of intellectual capital indicators during the years 1992 to 1996. The research approach was quantitative. The statistical population of the study consisted of 500 people, including the presidents, vice presidents and employees of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences, and 220 individuals were selected via simple random sampling following the Karjesi and Morgan’s Table. In order to identify the indicators of the intellectual capital of the university, by using the expert opinions of the supervisors and advisors and in consultation with the experts working in different units of the university, a number of the most appropriate indicators of the intellectual capital based on reliable scientific sources were extracted according to the structure of the University of Medical Sciences Ardabil. In this regard, the questionnaire made by Mehralizadeh et al. (2013) was taken as a model. The findings showed the status of the human capital index (78.6% positive growth; 7.2% no growth; 14.2% negative growth); structural capital index (45.45% positive growth; 40.91% no growth; 13.64% negative growth) and relational capital index (10.0% positive growth; 80.0% no growth; 10.0% negative growth) during the time period. Thus, the human capital of the university has a better condition than the structural and relational capital.

Establishing and promoting error management culture in educational institutions can decrease the occurrence of errors in such settings. By doing so, organizational errors can be reduced and the performance of the institutions as well as their staff can be improved. That is why the present study aimed to explore error management culture in educational institutes. This study was a qualitative research in which the methodology of grounded theory was employed to collect and analyze the data. For the purpose of the study, 11 experts in the field of education were selected from among heads of educational organizations and school managers with at least 10 years of related experience via snowball sampling method. Then interviews were conducted with each of the participants using a semi-structured interview. The collected qualitative data were then analyzed in the three stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. These categories and subcategories were then classified in 5 structural categories of the grounded theory, namely causal conditions (primary and secondary purposes), contextual factors (related to management and improvement), intervenient conditions (organizational obstacles, informational-motivational obstacles), strategies of action/ interaction (psychological safety, organizational conditions and requirements), and consequences (individual and organizational advantages). For validity and reliability, the method of Lincoln and Guba, which includes: credibility, trust, verifiability and transferability, was used and it was approved in terms of validity and reliability. In the end, the findings of the research showed that the establishment of error management culture in educational institutions leads to the development and effectiveness of the organization and individuals. Also, the employees of the institutions do not receive the necessary training in this field.

Educational justice is one of the most important goals in educational systems around the world. Educational justice can transform education in all areas, providing the ground for the emergence of talents and abilities at the macro level. Therefore, this study was conducted to explain the educational justice between professors in medical universities using grounded theory study.

The present study is a grounded theory study that was conducted with the participation of 12 professors of medical universities using purposive sampling in 2020-2021.

In the beginning of this century, the provision of education based on talents was the attention of experts, and from the second half of this century, the slogan of educational justice was raised. In recent years, educational justice has been the focus of education experts (Sango et al. 2011). Universities are among the organizations where the issue of justice has always been a challenge. Focusing on the issue of justice throughout history shows that humans have an innate desire for justice, and for this reason, there has always been an effort to implement it. This issue has been at the forefront of many government policies. Justice in all fields, especially in the field of education, can be planned and investigated as one of the important indicators of comprehensive development and survival of natural and social systems. Establishing educational justice is one of the most important and key goals in educational systems around the world. Because education is the most important capital that is available to the public and is the basis of all developments in society. Educational justice is one of the most fundamental dimensions of justice and the progress of society depends on its realization. Educational justice can transform education in all areas and provide the basis for the emergence of talents and abilities at the macro level. This study was conducted with the aim of explaining the model of educational justice in universities of medical sciences using grounded theory study.

The current research is a grounded theory study that was conducted in 2014-2016. The participants were 17 faculty members and postgraduate students of medical sciences universities, and sampling was done based on the goal and until data saturation was reached. Data collection was by interview method. All interviews were recorded, handwritten and then analyzed line by line. Extracted codes and data analysis were done with the method of Strauss and Corbin 1998. The research participants included 8 men and 9 women.In this study, after explaining the objectives of the research, the researcher took informed consent from each participant to participate in the study and record the interview and explained that the participants have the right to withdraw from the interview at any stage.

The participants in this study included 17 people, including 8 men and 9 women. The average age of the participants was 48 years. Some participants considered educational justice to be equal to the equality of educational opportunities in universities and believed that there should be equality between all students in various matters in the university. Educational justice among students in universities of medical sciences included 4 main categories of justice in creating educational opportunities, standard and correct evaluation, responsive education and discrimination. In total, 11 sub-classes were extracted from the above 4 classes. Justice was identified as a central concept in creating educational opportunities. Identifying how medical sciences university’s deal with the category of educational justice can be effective in distributing educational justice among students in different universities, and as a result, it provides the basis for the emergence of talents and abilities. Provide students at the macro level.

The purpose of this study was to explain educational justice among students of medical sciences universities. The results of data analysis showed that educational justice in universities of medical sciences includes justice in creating educational opportunities, correct and standard evaluation, responsive education and discrimination. In educational environments, especially universities, the existence of fair conditions and the observance of educational justice can be effective in the morale and academic performance of students (Yemeni et al. 2016). The results of studies have shown that there is a negative and significant relationship between educational justice and different dimensions of students' academic burnout, emotional exhaustion, academic apathy and academic inefficiency (Marzooghi et al. 2012). Improving the state of educational justice can be associated with reducing the academic burnout of students. In educational environments, especially universities, the existence of fair conditions and compliance with the principles and rules of justice lead to the transfer of a sense of value to students. In addition to this, the perception of the existence of justice removes the doubts and concerns of people regarding the violation of their rights and freedom (Berkovic 2014). Also, considering the relationship between justice and commitment, it can be stated that if there is a low perception of justice among students, they will lose their commitment as a student in acquiring knowledge and becoming a professional. The perception of injustice in the educational environment leads to the tendency to misbehavior, aggression and also reduce the motivation to study in students (Ferlin et al. 2015).The results of data analysis showed that educational justice in universities of medical sciences includes justice in creating educational opportunities, correct and standard evaluation, responsive education and discrimination.

The efforts of today's societies to keep up with the increasing changes in the field of technology have been extended to the field of education. The speed of change and development of technologies and its impact on educational processes, along with the challenges and opportunities of using new technologies have been witnesses in the realm of education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of new technologies on future educational trends based on review studies on external resources, internal resources and interviews with educational experts.

This research has been done with a qualitative approach and content analysis method. The statistical population includes documents, articles, dissertations, video lectures and educational conferences, research projects and reports related to the research topic and accessible in the last two decades, as well as the results of semi-structured interviews conducted with 20 experts in the field of education in Ardabil province, Iran. The data are qualitatively coded, analyzed and categorized in a three-step "content analysis" method.

Findings of this study were compiled under the two main themes of "positive impact of technology on education" and "challenges of technology and education"; the first main theme was classified with 40 sub-themes and the second main theme with 34 sub-themes.The need to pay attention to the effects of technology on individual structures and opportunities, reducing costs, automated solutions and increasing efficiency, improving the teaching process, etc. can be part of the sub-themes obtained under the main theme of "positive impact of technology on education.” Also under the theme of challenges of technology and education, sub-themes of non-compliance of existing standards with emerging standards, the need for new ways and infrastructure to transfer education in future schools, cross-border technology, Internet expansion, culture-startup, how management of complexity and uncertainty, the state of adhesion and the influence of technology in the culture of society, etc. were obtained.

Attending to and planning for a systematic change in the future education system can be inferred from the findings of this study.

The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the criteria for accepting teacher students in teacher training centers in Finland, Canada, Japan, South Korea and Iran. The approach to this qualitative research is that a comparative method has been used. The required data were identified, selected, organized, and then their similarities and differences were identified and compared and interpreted. According to the results of this study, the criteria for accepting students in teacher training centers of the mentioned countries with Iran are similar in cases such as using different types of exams and interviews, but the most important differences that could be mentioned in this field are the type of interview and its content is in these countries. Accordingly, part of the interview will be dedicated to the volunteer company in the actual teaching process (practical teaching). Also, using interview tools as a supplementary tool (not as the only tool for identifying qualified people) is one of the main features of using interview tools to determine worthy people in the teacher training centers of the mentioned countries which is somewhat different from the student-teacher selection process at Teacher Training University of Iran.

The purpose of this study is to explain the design of the optimal model for student selection in Farhangian University of Iran.

The approach of the present research is qualitative and has been done using the Grounded theory method. Participants in the present study, education experts, student admissions (managers and experts) of Farhangian University, students who graduated from Farhangian University six years ago and are now employed in schools using the sampling method 27 of them were purposefully interviewed. The data collection tool was a semi-structured interview with which this number of researchers reached theoretical saturation. Strauss and Corben method was used to analyze the qualitative data.

After open coding and formulation of basic concepts, 20 central codes in 6 selected codes were placed in the form of paradigm model. According to the results of this study, the most important contextual, causal, negotiator, strategies and consequences in choosing the optimal student selection model in Farhangian University are: current process damages, school conditions, teacher status, upstream documents, employment conditions in Society, teacher attraction in society, process-oriented selection, selection criteria, selection tools, elite recruitment and development of the educational system.

The aim of this study was to provide a model for succession in higher education. In order to collect the information of the present study, a qualitative part of the semi-structured interview and a quantitative part of a questionnaire were used. The qualitative statistical population consisted of experts from the scientific community and academic experts who had executive backgrounds at the decision-making levels who were purposefully selected and the number of experts in the qualitative department was 10 people. The quantitative statistical population includes all higher education administrators who were evaluated 500 people and using Cochran's formula 217 people were selected as a statistical sample by simple random sampling.The face and content validity of the data collection tool was confirmed by 30 experts and its reliability was obtained in a preliminary test with 30 subjects for all the studied variables above 0.7, which is acceptable To analyze the data in the qualitative part, the data theory method was used, and in the quantitative part, descriptive statistics methods were used with SPSS software version 22 and inferential statistics were used to model structural equations in Smart PLS software version 2 Qualitative results show that the data obtained from the interviews during the open, axial and selective coding process resulted in the emergence of the foundation data theory in the field of succession breeding. Causal factors affect the central phenomenon. Also, underlying factors, phenomena and intervention factors of succession breeding affect its strategies. On the other hand, succession strategies influence its consequences.

School excellence" is derived from organizational excellence and a new subject. Because this issue is older outside Iran, various researches have been done in this field, but in Iran, due to its infancy, not much research is observed, and it does not have the necessary support for field studies and is a model for quality. Implementation has not been presented, and the results of research emphasize the need for field-based research One of the issues that is felt in the implementation of the school excellence program in Iran is that; Stakeholder participation in the implementation of the school excellence program does not exceed the level of student participation in the implementation of extracurricular activities and cooperation with educators in educational matters. The role of parents is especially marginalized in the quality of teaching and learning of students. Therefore, in the current situation, the realization of the idea of a school-centered approach with a bottom-up approach has no place in the school management excellence program. In recent years, many speculations have been made about this program and based on it, amendments have been made to the way of implementing and changing the evaluation indicators.These actions are often aimed at redefining and shifting the criteria and indicators rather than reflecting on its intellectual and theoretical foundations. This is while the effective school literature of regular and accurate efforts, especially problem-oriented and context-oriented, as well as the joint cooperation of policy makers and educational researchers in providing different models of effectiveness and their effective role in forming new intellectual waves in this The constituency tells. The effective and transcendent school is a context-dependent phenomenon. The characteristics of the situation in which the school is culturally, socially, politically, economically, and demographically located essentially overshadow its inputs, processes, and outputs, and this is at odds with the effectiveness of the excellence program. It seems that the necessary groundwork has not been done in terms of manpower training, space, facilities and equipment, all-round efforts of the trustees in planning and proper implementation of the process-oriented program. Therefore, considering this importance, the purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the process of implementing the school management excellence program, in order to identify the prerequisites and underlying factors and to provide practical solutions to improve the quality of the excellence program implementation.The main purpose of this study was to identify the effective factors and provide operational model on the performance of school management excellence program. In this research qualitative approach was used by using grounded theory method. Also, 20 supervisors and executives of excellence program were selected by purposeful sampling based on saturation principle. In the data collection, semi - structured interview tools were employed. In order to analyze the data, a systematic coding method has been used in three steps (open coding, axial and selective coding) and the categories that form different parts of the model were grouped into six dimensions. In this study, the coding results show that 550 propositions in describing the perception of observers and implementers are effective factors and requirements of the excellence program. By abstracting concepts and categories from data and classifying similarities based on conceptual relevance and theoretical studies, the reports were summarized into 90 conceptual spectra, 36 sub-categories, and 11 main categories. During the three codings: open coding (OC), axial coding (AC) and selective coding (SC), "quality of program execution" was identified as the central phenomenon of the research. Finally, all categories related to the central phenomenon were organized in five axes (causal, contextual, intervening, strategic and consequential factors).The results of data analysis showed that the quality of implementation of excellence program is influenced by causal factors such as the status of financial and human resources of schools and the amount of effort by the authorities in planning and implementing excellence program. It can also be facilitated by devising desirable strategies such as human resources training, organizational health, and teacher effectiveness, which include contextual factors such as organizational culture, parenting role and environmental factors, and intervening conditions such as; The management and leadership style and characteristics of the principal are influenced, and ultimately, the implementation of the excellence program leads to outcomes such as program-based, self-assessment, school-based and comprehensive quality at school. Considering the emphasis of the Fundamental Transformation Document on improving school management and achieving the appearance of the school in the horizon of Vision 1404, it is suggested that further study be done on the underlying factors affecting the quality of the excellence program and using the findings of this study. In order to be more effective, trustees should evaluate the school's contextual factors for implementing the program and, if the necessary contexts are not available, focus their actions on providing the prerequisites. Because implementation without bedding does not lead to a significant increase in school performance and, except for wasting resources, the goals of the excellence program will not be achieved. Considering the effective role of school principals in the implementation of the program, it is suggested that the appointment of qualified principals be done in accordance with the identified personality traits and managerial knowledge and skills, and that the training of principals be given priority. Also, education stakeholders should improve the method of implementing the program and evaluate the performance of schools in accordance with the type and conditions of the school, and also use the research findings as facilitators to educate and justify the executive agents of the excellence program in special sessions and workshops. Finally, with proper training and explanation, trustees and agents should have a process-oriented approach to the program to monitor the effectiveness of the program during the academic year during the implementation and to remove obstacles to implementation.
