Considering the role of science education in the economic growth of every country, it is included in the curriculum of k12 education. In the meantime, green chemistry has been given attention in science education. Green chemistry is one of the most fundamental approaches used in sustainable development. Textbooks are expected to pave the way for sustainable development by educating the principles of green chemistry. The goal of green chemistry is to design products and processes that are compatible with the environment and minimize the risks caused by chemicals.

The application of the principles of green chemistry in the subject of electrochemistry in the chemistry textbook was investigated in this research.

This research is descriptive-analytical and it uses the method of content Analysis. The statistical population of the study is the 3rd grade chemistry textbook and the studied sample is the second chapter of this book in terms of attention to electrochemical concepts, which includes pictures and text containing titles, written sentences, and questions. The research tool was the twelve principles of green chemistry. The research method was based on the census of the analysis units based on the aforementioned principles. To achieve content validity, the opinions of experts in chemistry education were considered and the results were presented in the form of descriptive statistics.

Findings from content analysis showed that about 31% of the content has an educational approach based on green chemistry, which refers to 9 principles of green chemistry. On the other hand, principles 8, 10, and 11 principles of green chemistry have not been considered. Also, due to the role of electrochemical knowledge in providing clean energy, the principle of maximum energy efficiency had the highest percentage of frequency in the designed content based on attention to the environment.

Information literacy involves a range of skills such as recognizing information needs, understanding information production and value, and using information to generate new knowledge ethically. It is essential for individuals to locate, evaluate, and utilize information effectively to become lifelong learners. This research aims to investigate how education influences the information literacy abilities of out-of-school children in accessing digital libraries and databases.

This study utilized a Semi-experimental research design and survey method. Initial theoretical studies were conducted, and five information literacy standards were compared to develop a new pattern. The population consisted of 195 dropouts from two schools - Moshtaq in Kerman and Arslan Boys in Rafsanjan. The sample size of 120 individuals was selected using a simple random method, with 100 students completing the questionnaire. Survey data was analyzed before and after information literacy training over one semester using a checklist with five components and 15 indicators. Reliability was measured using Cronbach's alpha, which yielded a value of 0.851.

The study revealed that digital libraries and databases were available to a favorable extent, with a 2.935 percent availability rate. Prior to training, students showed a 2.125 percent proficiency in locating information in digital resources, which improved to 2.45 percent post-training. Additionally, students demonstrated an average skill level of 2.38 in utilizing full-text databases within digital libraries.

The research underscored the importance of education in enhancing information literacy skills, particularly in the areas of information retrieval and selection, database usage, and critical evaluation of online sources. Recommendations included teaching students how to identify reliable information sources, conduct effective information searches, and utilize various search operators for refining search results.Value: The novelty of the research lies in its examination of the Impact of Education on Information Literacy Skills of Dropout Students in Utilizing Digital Libraries and Databases through a Semi-experimental research design.

Topic: The main topic of this research is to investigate the main components of the intellectual virtues and critical thinking and their relationship with monovision in order to realize educational ideals.

One of the most important educational ideals is that cognitive growth and moral growth take place together. Critical thinking and intellectual virtue are two important educational approaches whose main end is to take steps towards this educational ideal. In this article, the relationship between intellectual virtues and critical thinking in order to achieve educational ideals was discussed.

This article collected information using a library method and then discussed and investigated the relationship between critical thinking and intellectual virtues in order to achieve educational ideals with the descriptive method and content analysis.

Based on the findings of this research, it was determined that the most important components of intellectual virtues are motivational, emotional, judgment and success components. The main components of critical thinking are the evaluation of reasoning (cause) and the component of the spirit of critical thinking. Intellectual virtue and critical thinking are distinct from each other, although some dimensions of critical thinking overlap with intellectual virtue (such as curiosity, intellectual perseverance, open mindedness, intellectual courage, etc.). Intellectual virtue and critical thinking complement each other to realize educational ideals.

In all disciplines, critical thinking and intellectual virtues are among the most important things that must be taught to students. Intellectual virtues and critical thinking are necessary prerequisites for learning all academic disciplines; Because apart from causing academic success and achieving superior thinking, they are also very effective in the efficiency of social life and citizenship.

The roots of most shortcomings and problems related to problem-finding, topic selection, and part of the damage of studies in knowledge and information science can be caused by the uncertainty of the basic issues and challenges of this field, and the lack of attention to current and future study needs and fields. This makes obvious the necessity of studying and researching issues and future research needs in this field. In this regard, the current research aims to identify the issues and challenges ahead and future study areas in the field of knowledge and information science from experts' viewpoints.

The approach of the current research is qualitative in terms of the type of data. An electronic interview based on an open-response questionnaire was used to collect data. The studied population included Ph.D. students and graduates, and faculty members of public and private universities affiliated with research institutes in this field in Iran. In order to determine the sample size, the purposeful sampling method was used. The criteria for selecting the samples were willingness to participate in research and having at least 5 years of service experience in educational and research centers related to the field of knowledge and information science. According to the final purpose regarding the study of issues and leading subject areas, it was checked that the people participating in this research have, as much as possible, the research backgrounds related to the study of issues, research areas of knowledge and information science, needs, and problems. At the end of the questionnaire, by using the snowball sampling method, the aforementioned people were requested to introduce other people with experiences and views on the issues, challenges, and subjects of the field, to participate in the study. Until theoretical saturation and reaching repetitive information, sampling was continued. Finally, the opinions of 22 experts in knowledge and information science were used. The interpretive analysis method was used to analyze qualitative data and identify components. Data management and coding were done using MaxQda 2020 software. To ensure the reliability of the results, the retest reliability method (coding stability index) was used, and its value was 83%.

The analysis of transcripts of interviews led to the identification of 54 problems in this field. According to these findings, many of the challenges identified in the current research are not only specific to knowledge and information science, and some of them are also relevant in other fields, especially humanities and social sciences.The origin of some of these problems goes back to environmental conditions including social, cultural, economic, technological, etc. factors, and in general, to the policies and conditions governing the society, and some others are affected by the conditions governing the field itself. Among the identified issues and challenges, experts in knowledge and information science put special emphasis on issues related to education and the higher education system. Most of the problems raised by them were related to the state of the scientific outputs of this field. In addition, considering the rapid process of changes today and their continuation in the future, one of the most important concerns of specialists in this field is the ability to accompany and adapt to the process of comprehensive changes and manage them in order to achieve their goals and missions. The subject areas of the future were categorized by the specialists of this field in 10 main areas including education, research and science production, user studies, information organization, information retrieval, virtual libraries, knowledge management, information services, librarians and information specialists, and theoretical and philosophical foundations. According to the results regarding future issues and subject areas in the field of knowledge and information science, it can be acknowledged that, in general, the focus of future studies will be on 6 main axes: Issues related to users and their interaction with information and information systems; Topics related to information science and content management in cyberspace, including big data organization and digital content recovery; Training graduates and information specialists for effective employment in the changing work environments of the future and preparation for entrepreneurship and self-employment; Evaluation and development of science and research; Developing the relationship between information science and epistemology with other related fields including computer science, information technology, artificial intelligence, management; Futuristic studies and the use of their achievements in order to improve and keep pace with future developments; Digitization and virtualization of libraries and information centers, services and activities related to knowledge and information science.

On the one hand, these results can help policymakers and scientific, educational, and research planners in allocating financial resources to basic issues and topics, and on the other hand, they can be a guide for researchers in problem-finding and choosing practical and problem-oriented topics. These results can also provide a basis for the supervisors of this field to pay attention to the upcoming issues and challenges and plan to smooth them out.

Efforts to make information literacy education dynamic and adaptable to the changing generations and their preferences are on the agenda of policymakers in different countries. Attempts are made to encourage students to participate in information literacy courses using new tools. Information literacy includes identifying one's own information needs, the skill of discernment, location, organization, evaluation, and effective use of information that individuals use to solve their problems. Therefore, the aim of this research is to examine the role of gamification in teaching information literacy skills to middle school students in the city of Izeh.

The present study was a quasi-experimental research with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population consisted of all 9,612 middle school students in the city of Izeh who were studying in the academic year of 2021-2022. Based on this, 52 students were selected from among the students using the available sampling method to prevent potential dropouts, and were randomly assigned to two groups of 26 students: the control and experimental groups. Informed consent was the criterion for entry into the study, and the lack of willingness to continue participating in the study was the criterion for exit. The experimental group received information literacy education for 10 sessions using gamification, while the control group received traditional education. The data collection tool was Yazdani's information literacy concepts and skills questionnaire, and the results were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance.

The results showed that there is a significant correlation between independent and dependent variables in pre-test and post-test in all cases. There is a significant difference between the mean scores of learning information evaluation skills, learning information organization skills, and learning information exchange and dissemination skills among the statistical samples in pre-test and post-test. In other words, the mean scores of learning information evaluation skills, learning information organization skills, and learning information exchange and dissemination skills in the experimental group in the post-test phase are significantly higher than the control group, and gamification has a significant effectiveness on these three dimensions of information literacy. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between the mean scores of learning information needs definition skills and learning information acquisition skills in the experimental group in the post-test phase, so it can be said that gamification has no significant effect on these two dimensions of information literacy.

The research results have shown that the use of gamification has played a role in improving the information literacy skills of middle school students in the city of Izeh and has led to an increase in their overall information literacy skills. Gamified learning environments increase social interaction and collaboration for effective learning. The results of this study also showed that Kahoot educational tools based on gamification elements had positive effects on competition, participation in learning, and motivation of learners. However, the results also showed that gamification has no role in improving students' information needs definition skills in middle school in Izeh. The results indicate that students' information needs, or in other words, their sense of competency in performing tasks and skills, their sense of usefulness and effectiveness, their sense of trust, competition and challenge, control over consequences, influence and dominance over the environment, and sense of success and efficiency, are met through active learning methods. Information-literate students should be able to express their information needs, and gamification should provide them with a platform to become familiar with their desired topic and define or review it. Additionally, the software should provide features that enable students to analyze their own questions and design information-based queries. This skill was not met in this study, indicating a gamification deficiency.Results also showed that gamification does not have a role in improving the information literacy skills of middle school students in the city of Izeh. Learners need to identify ways of finding knowledge and information, be able to easily access various information resources, evaluate them, and apply them. Studies have also shown that although students' information literacy skills improve after short-term educational interventions, it is not enough, and usually students cannot fully answer all questions or tasks after the educational intervention. Therefore, there is a need for more comprehensive educational interventions in more sessions to enhance students' overall information literacy skills. Gamification for children should help them become familiar with various information resources. Additionally, this software can help children develop skills in identifying, evaluating, and selecting information resources. In this study, this skill of students was not met, indicating a deficiency in gamification. The results of the third hypothesis showed that the use of gamification in learning the skill of information evaluation has a role in middle school students' information literacy. The skill of information evaluation can also save time during research, improve the quality of retrieved information, and ultimately improve the quality of the research based on this information. As users of these software, students should be familiar with the principles and criteria for evaluating resources and information and use critical thinking to collect and analyze information. Gamification should enhance students' cognitive skills in collecting and analyzing information to increase this skill.The results obtained from the fourth hypothesis showed that the use of gamification in learning the skill of organizing information has an impact on middle school students in the city of Izeh. The goal of this skill is for students to be able to compare information obtained critically and organize it. Therefore, technologies designed to teach information literacy to children should be effective in facilitating critical and analytical thinking in the collection, use, and organization of information. Students with information literacy skills organize information for better use and application. The design of gamification for students should help develop this skill in children by following the principles of designing databases and using various programs to categorize and organize information. This study has met this skill in students, indicating the positive impact of gamification on this skill. The results of the fifth hypothesis showed that the use of gamification in learning the skill of exchanging and disseminating information has a significant role and increases this skill among middle school students in Izeh. In the current world, the web has provided a new information space; individuals can publish information on the Internet, search and retrieve their desired information, or even interact with other users. Using this platform, like any other information resource, requires the skill of exchanging and disseminating information, which is one of the most important information literacy skills. Gamification can help children establish communication with others in teaching information literacy concepts. Students can use the features provided in these software programs to exchange ideas and opinions with others and expand their information range.

The main goal of this research is to measure the effectiveness of health literacy training for retirements of the civil servant pension fund through social networks.

The current study is a semi-experimental study and was conducted as a pre-test-post-test. The research community were selected among the civil servant pension fund retirees in the whole country.after measuring their quality of life, 80 retirees who had a poor quality of life score in two groups, the test and the control.Health literacy training program through social networks (WhatsApp & Telegram), designed based on James Brown's systematic educational model. After that, the quality of life of both groups was checked and compared again. SPSS 23 software, inferential statistics and descriptive statistics and Kolmogorov Smirnov's tests, t test, as well as covariance test were used for dataa analysis.

The results of covariance analysis showed that health literacy training through social networks has caused changes in the test group, and this means that training program has had an impact on the quality of life of the retirees of the civil servant Pension Fund.

According to the findings of this research and the effectiveness of the training course through social networks for retirees, managers and planners of the country's health field can create a wide and integrated network in the whole with long-term planning by using social networks to improve the level of health literacy of retirees

Due to increasing the amount of information and the importance of applying images in various fields, the significance of visual literacy is obvious and research showed that visual literacy has a positive effect on learning. So, the purpose of this study was to determine the importance of visual literacy and to identify the necessity of its use in education and learning, as well as to dictate the components of visual literacy to improve learning.

Using the library method and utilizing descriptive research method, the literature in the field of visual literacy has been reviewed

Visual literacy is typically considered as an ability to evaluate, analyze and interpret the meanings of images and their use, also as a main concept is contemplated.

Visual literacy standards help us study, analyze, understand, and recognize visual elements based on a reasonable and pre-defined framework. It makes people benefit more appropriately from information resources in the form of symbols and images. The concept of visual literacy is evolving and requires more advanced tools. Therefore, students must be acquainted with the tools of this technique.

Game development is one of the most important subjects that has been able to transform education, business, industry and other backgrounds, in a form called gamification. The eighth art is the title that these days refers to the art of the gaming industry.

The method used in this research is library studies and it is a review article.

This article introduces various aspects related to the theory of games and their role in teaching and learning. Examining gamification in information in organizations is less focused on game capabilities in teaching and learning specialized subjects.

According to the findings, new research should be done in this field. As a result, with the appropriate use of scientific resources and the use of questionnaires, in addition to the use of learning elements, a framework will be created to explain the role of gamification in the field of education and learning, and as a result, a conceptual model can be obtained in researches.

The purpose of this research is to present a model for the competitive intelligence course in the Knowledge and Information Science curriculum by drawing a picture of the status of competitive intelligence in the international arena from the perspective of research and education as well as obtaining expert opinion.

This research used a mixed approach and quantitative content analysis is done in two parts. The first population of this research is all the scientific productions indexed at WOS Database from 1945 to 2018. In the second part, among the countries that produce scientific works in the field of library and information science, purposive sampling was done and the curriculum of library and information science schools of the country with the most scientific products in the field of competitive intelligence was analyzed (52 universities, the second population research). After analyzing the content of the competitive intelligence curriculum at five universities, the curriculum model was developed. The third research community consists of experts and professors of information science and science. The data from this study was collected through two researcher-made checklists and one questionnar. For data analyzing, statistics such as frequency, percentage and ration test were used.

The results of the research showed that the fields of Librarianship and Information Science, Business, Computer, Chemistry, Engineering are concerned with Competitive Intelligence, respectively. But, the field of information science and librarianship has the highest scientific output in the subject of competitive intelligence. Most of the products are in 2016, and the United States has been the leading supplier of these products and Spain ranks second and Brazil third in the competitive intelligence field. Universities in Grenada and West Eurasia have had the most number of participants in this field. Jin, Vaughan, Bouthollier, Wiley, and Simon have the most products. Scientific products are more in the form of paper and then books. Most of the citations given to scientific productions are in the topic of intelligence 220 and it happened in 2018. Competitive intelligence is taught in most schools and educational departments of library and information science in the country with the highest scientific output. In the model, the name, syllabus, etc. were considered and this model was approved by experts.

The results indicate that the lack of Iran and Iranians in the field of competitive intelligence in Knowledge and Information Science is very clear and it is necessary that this issue is considered in the curriculum of Knowledge and Information Science. The agreement of the information and knowledge experts is an indication of their interest in the extent of the frontier of the field and in gaining more market share.

The field of Knowledge and Information science needs systematic studies about the future in order to adapt and keep pace with the current developments and to effectively deal with them and maintain their position and survival in the current competitive conditions. In this regard, the present study intends to guide future researchers to develop research in this field by reviewing studies related to the future of information science and science in Iran and the world.

The present study was conducted using the systematic review method. In the present study, in order to ensure the systematic review process, the guide provided by Okoli & Schabram (2010) has been used. For this purpose, related researches were searched in international and domestic databases without considering the time limit. In total, 114 researches were analyzed.

A review of studies showed that 14 dissertations, 25 conference articles, 65 journal articles and 10 website notes addressed the issue of the future of information science and epistemology. These researches have studied the future of this field in four axes: 1. Libraries and information centers in the future; 2. Librarians and information science professionals in the future; 3. The future of education in information science and science; And 4. The future of research in this field. A significant part of this research has been done with the aim of studying the goals, functions, features, services and resources of libraries in the future.

Libraries and information centers will continue to function as an important social institution in the future, but in order to be able to compete with competitors such as the Internet, super search engines, social networks, databases, virtual reality, augmented and hybrid technologies, To maintain and improve their position of audio-visual media and other new tools, it is necessary to change their services in accordance with the needs of the day and new technologies. In the future, the development of media and information carriers will not replace the role of librarians and information science professionals, but the importance of their position will be felt. In fact, among the various technologies and media, only librarians have the ability to overcome the challenges ahead such as the increasing volume of information, the growth of Internet resources, greater diversity of user needs, facing the problems of organizing information resources in cyberspace and optimal retrieval. Information from the masses of information is inappropriate. Given the current and future developments, the need for change in the situation of education and research in this field is felt more.

Time management means the process of organizing and planning to divide your time between specific activities, including gaining experience and training. Employees need training and knowledge promotion to achieve organizational and individual goals. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between time management and staff training in Kerman public libraries.

The research method in this study was descriptive-analytical correlational. The statistical population included all staff and librarians of public libraries in Kerman with 645 people, of which 241 people were selected as a sample by random sampling method. Carroll and Kaufmann (1999) and Newey and Wilk (1993) staff training questionnaires were used to collect data. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation test, one-sample t-test and multiple linear regressions.

The results of data analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between staff training and time management (p <0.05). Also, the situation of time management and training of librarians and staff was at a good level (p <0.05). The results of multiple linear regression also showed that there was no significant relationship between employees' perceptions of job-related/rank-related  training and time management (p >0.05) and between employees' perceptions of self-related training and time management had an incremental (direct) and significant relationship (p <0.05).

Library managers can use time management techniques and pay attention to the role of this valuable component, to train their staff and librarians to plan and help them promote personal growth and achieve career goals.

Visual literacy, which means the skill of interpreting signs, lines and colors and understanding the message in the image, is a necessity of the present age and complements information literacy due to the mastery of the image over the text. In addition to teaching information literacy skills, librarians are expected to teach visual literacy components as well. In addition to reading wordless picture books that rely on visual literacy skills, these books can also be used as tools to teach visual literacy. Since the improvement of visual literacy skills is directly related to the growth of creativity, picture books can be a tool for teaching visual literacy and increasing creativity. For this purpose, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of visual literacy training on the growth of creativity and its components in ten-year-old girls in primary schools in Mashhad with the focus on picture books.

The present study, in terms of applied purpose and in terms of the type of research, was among the quasi-experimental researches with pre-test and post-test with the control group. The statistical population of the study was all 10-year-old girls studying in primary schools of Mashhad in the academic year of 1998-99, of them 30 were randomly selected in two experimental (15) and control (15) groups. The experimental group received visual literacy training and practiced for 16 sessions. Data collection tools were Torrance Visual Creativity Test and a researcher-made child visual literacy questionnaire that assessed the subjects' abilities. The validity of the Visual Literacy Questionnaire was confirmed by communication experts and its reliability was calculated by Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.91). Uni-variate covariance test was used to analyze the data.

Research findings showed that there is a significant difference between the creativity scores of children who have received visual education training and children who have not received this training; These training sets have led to an increase in fluidity, flexibility, initiative and expansion in their ideas and as a result, increased their creativity.

Librarians now focus on teaching visual literacy alongside information literacy due to image dominance, as this skill can affect the ability of people such as creativity. Visual literacy training is a common practice among faculty members, librarians, musicologists, archivists, visual resource professionals, and educational technology professionals, but is held in schools as a hobby. It emphasizes the responsibilities of other educational institutions, especially libraries. In order to address this education, as in the present study, it is necessary to strengthen educational protocols with the participation of other fields such as communication and educational sciences. It is also necessary to use multiple strategies for training. This research used a picture book for education. As a result, it can be stated that in addition to understanding visual books that require visual literacy, it can also be used as a visual literacy training tool. Therefore, future research should examine how to enhance visual literacy in the library, increase it in users, identify effective picture books, and identify appropriate educational protocols.

To investigate the effect of information and education through social networks in increasing awareness of the time of the outbreakof Covid19 andunderstanding the information needsof the people.

This isa descriptive-analytical survey witha practical purpose. 384 people were randomly selectedby cluster sampling from regions1,2,3,4,5,7,13,15,16,17,18,20and21.Sampling was done using Morgan tableand thedata were collected bya researcher-made questionnaire.The instrument was evaluatedwith thehelp of information science experts and the reliabilityof the instrument was calculated with Cronbach's alphacoefficient.The data collected in SPSS software were entered, coded and K2,Tand Friedman tests were used to analyze the data.

Manypeople inthe study consider theuse of social networks in information and education to increase public awareness tobe very effectivein the Covid19 epidemic.More than halfof the people consider the presence of these networks tobe influential in their lives andbelieve that these networks can be a good platform for information,education and awareness.Manyof them think that useful trainings andinformation are published in these networks.

People are interested inusing social media toget information, education and awareness of the corona19 andthey believethat they receive useful information and training from these networks,but they are moderately confident in this information.Someof the information thatis shared comes from other sources such as newssites, radioand television.etc.,and people also share thisinformation on social networks

Due to the increasing volume of information in today's world and the need to use images in various fields, we can no longer afford to ignore the importance of visual literacy as much information is included and conveyed through images. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of digital image guide method on visual literacy. A quasi-experimental research method with pre-test post-test control group design was used to answer the research questions. The research began by assessing the visual literacy of the experimental and the control groups via a visual literacy questionnaire (the pre-test). The experimental group then received 9 sessions of 30-minute training through description of digital images, known as the Digital Image Guide, while the control received no special treatment. The images used in this study were selected from Getty Images and Flickr sites. Afterwards, the two groups took the same visual literacy questionnaire (the post-test). The obtained data were analyzed using a multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). The results showed that the mean of visual literacy components in the post-test of the experimental group had a significant increase compared to that of the control group (p<0.05). Therefore, it can be said that the Digital Image Guide (i.e. the method of describing digital images) had a positive and significant effect on students' visual literacy and its components. People need to be able to understand and visualize the messages in the images and educational systems, which are usually based on traditional methods, need to take that point into account and teach visual literacy to students so that they can understand concepts as it would enhance their learning.

Provide learning content in a pictorial thesaurus format to increase learning in students is the hypothesis that in this article was studied. This study showed that: 1) we can provide learning content in a thesaurus format, and 2) This format can be effective as an educational media in science education that leads to increase learning in students.  In this study, as a case study, the first year of high school chemistry book was selected. Then all the concepts and issues in this book was presented in the form of a pictorial thesaurus. Then by two statistical methods (test and survey), comments and scores of the test and control groups in some of Tehran schools were measured. The results of field activities confirm the hypothesis of increased learning due to the pictorial thesaurus. Thesaurus format benefits include concision, looking from above to the subject, reminded subjects taught before, classification and organization of educational content, ease of intuition of concepts, quick access to desired content, virtual education and distance learning.

The purpose of this study was to Employee perception analysis of the effectiveness of on-the-job training courses in Mazandaran Regional Water Company. To assess the educational courses’ effectiveness at the study company, Kirkpatrick's four-level model has been applied and the study questions have been formulated based on the very model. The tool to collect data has been interviewing some company managers and employees and the researcher built questionnaire which has been developed. The results show that Employee perceptions of the effectiveness of training courses in the three dimensions of reaction(3.45), learning(3.38) and behavior(3.25) in the company under study have a higher than average score, and then the calculated average results(2.75) are below average. In other words, it can be acknowledged that Employee perceptions of the effectiveness of the training courses were significantly higher than the average, but the findings regarding the results from the managers did not show a good effect.

To identify the problems of education in library and information science from the perspective of specialists was the main purpose.

This research was carried out using a qualitative approach using grounded theory. The data gathering tool was a deep interview. Data analysis and coding were performed over three stages of open, axial and selective coding procedures, using the MAXQDA qualitative analysis software. The research community was composed of 14 members of library and Information science Program Planning Committee and faculty members and experts from four universities. They were selected using purposeful combination targeted and snowball sampling methods.

the factors affecting the pathology of the education of library and information science including educational equipment, technology infrastructure, human factors, curriculum planning, the importance of course subjects, professional activities, field attractiveness, methodology, teaching, business problems, lack of financial resources, documentary tsunami, and lack of social insights were identified.

The factors influencing social behaviors, entrepreneurship, strengthening theoretical knowledge, convergence with society, performance evaluation, quality of graduates, continuing education, revising lessons as strategies for removing barriers to training injuries, the use of strategies has led to the consequences of training dynamics, the identification of indicators functional, will be prospective. The effective factors in "education pathology" presented in the form of a model.

today, digital literacy, as a set of skills that enable people to use digital space effectively for success in personal, educational and professional life, has become a necessity in all societies and public libraries are one of the most important providers of digital literacy education in the world. Digital literacy education has not been considered in public libraries in Iran. The first step in promoting digital literacy education in Iran`s public libraries is to design courses and topics that can cover a variety of this aspects of the phenomenon. Now, the boundaries of this content art not clear, and this research seeks to design a comprehensive framework to meet this need. The purpose of this study is to present a content framework for digital literacy education to Iranian public libraries users.

this research is a qualitative research and it`s method is qualitative content analysis. at first, the courses provided by the public libraries of Iran Were reviewed and then content analysis of digital literacy courses was conducted in public libraries of developed countries. 16 libraries were selected from English speaking countries that hold digital literacy courses and share information on their websites by cluster sampling with probability proportional to size. To perform Delphi, Experts from the fields of library and information science and information technology, and public libraries professionals were selected.

9 courses were identified and after compiling a questio0nnaire and preforming two Delphi rounds, these courses were reduced to 8 main courses and 37 sub-courses. These courses were included computer, internet, job management, information literacy, financial literacy, learning skills, effective communication skills and how to work with smartphones. Software courses were not considered suitable by specialists. This seems to be due to the different groups of society and the heterogeneous community of public libraries users and the experts do not see this as a readiness in the society to receive software related courses.

digital literacy education in Iran has generally neglected. Generally, digital literacy education in universities and educational institutions is provided in formal computer training courses. Libraries in general have paid very little attention to the issue of education.  the first step in advancing digital literacy education in public libraries is designing courses that can covers the various aspects of this phenomenon. Educational content is also one of the sides of the education triangle (learner, educator and educational content). However today the boundaries of this content are not clear and this study try to design a comprehensive framework to meet this need.

The purpose of this study is to provide a smart environment to improve planning, health, well-being, and thus academic and educational achievement of students.

The research is applied in terms of purpose. In this paper, firstly, effective criteria in the learning process have been extracted and prioritized by reading books, articles and questions from experts. Then, an architecture is proposed whose dimensions are nutrition and health, energy, roommate selection, and the designation of a supervisor and research fellow. Opportunities to use the IoT to create a suitable environment to enhance educational attainment in each department have been explored.

Due to the increasing waste production and the concerns arising from their environmental damage, waste management policy-making is of the utmost importance. The waste is a side product of human activities and includes a variety of household, medical, agricultural, industrial, commercial, special, and hazardous waste. In Comprehensive Waste Management, collection, transport, process, treatment, and disposal of waste are managed to achieve the desired triple environmental, social, and economic objectives of the region. By examining several waste management approaches, this paper emphasizes on waste management policies and strategies such as different service pricing, training, and economic incentives. Besides, the study investigates the policy deficiencies and challenges of waste management law and analyzes legal systems of waste management in some countries. Considering the upstream environmental documents such as the Fifth Article of the constitution and the Five-Year Development Plans of the country, it is stated that the law of waste management in Iran is in the course of its development, and its evolution depends on the further examination of lawyers, and specialists and support of all institutions. As a result, in addition to legal and policy tools, it is necessary to strengthen management, economic, environmental, cultural, and social systems of waste.
