Multicultural Education Management in Iranian schools': A Qualitative Meta-analysis

Todays, education is seen as cultural issues which learners receive and interpret educational materials through their cultures. Considering that the learners may be belonging to different cultural groups, therefore, the culture is not unique and integrated issue. Therefore, multicultural education is necessary. In spite of different researches in Iran have been concentrated on multicultural education but there isn’t any comprehensive reviews and Meta studies about that researches. The aim of the current research was to image structural, methodological and contextual orientations of multicultural research in the school context in Iran. To achieve the aim, qualitative meta- analysis was conducted and a total of 26 researches were evaluated. The findings showed that not only multicultural education is relatively new issue for many of the researchers but the multi-cultural researches have deficiencies quantitatively and qualitatively. The limited contribution of the writers which are belonging to cultural minorities in multi- cultural researches; the limited contribution of qualitative researches in these area and finally, extensive concentration on the reflection multi- cultural education components and neglecting other issues are the most problematic issues.
