Purpose: The current research was conducted with the aim of designing the national identity curriculum model for the second elementary school. Methodology: According to the nature and scope of the research, various qualitative methods were used to achieve the research objectives, which include: a) grounded theory, to design the national identity curriculum model in the elementary school; b) Thematic analysis method to determine the characteristics of elements of national identity in primary school textbooks to achieve the curriculum model of national identity. In part A, the community was studied by experts in the field of national identity, including experts in social sciences and educational sciences and upper education documents. The method of gathering information from experts was through semi-structured interviews with 36 teachers and experts. Also, the interviews were conducted based on the grounded theory in three stages of open, central, and selective coding, and the obtained concepts were classified into categories and subcategories. Findings: National identity curriculum model was presented in two dimensions of why and the necessity of national identity curriculum and how national identity curriculum in the form of a conceptual model, including the necessity and need (needs assessment), goals (general goal and partial goals), content (principles of content organization, content selection), teaching methods, learning, teacher's role, and evaluation methods. Conclusion: Among the features of this model, we can refer to being native, attention to individual, social, ethnic and national characteristics, being scientific, simplicity, originality, educational outlook and active approach in teaching and learning.

Purpose: Given the importance of performance management in improving organizational performance, the present study was conducted to design a model for performance management based on components of talent management. Methodology: This study was applied in terms of objective and mixed (qualitative and quantitative) in terms of research method. The population of qualitative study included literature on performance management based on the components of talent management during 2001-2021 and the population of quantitative study included managers and employees of the airports and air navigation of East Azerbaijan Province in 2021 (n=240). The sample size of qualitative study was n=30, and n=144 in quantitative study, who were selected as according to the table of Karjesi and Morgan by simple random sampling method. The tool of qualitative study was note-taking of the researches; and a 90-item researcher-made questionnaire in quantitative study, whose validity and reliability were appropriate. The qualitative study data were analyzed by coding method and MAXQDA; and quantitative study data were analyzed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and structural equation modeling using SPSS and LISREL. Findings: The results of qualitative study showed that for performance management based on components of talent management, 158 indicators and 71 components were identified in 6 categories, including talent sourcing, talent retention, talent development, creativity and innovation, performance development and professional competencies. Also, the results of quantitative study showed that the factor load of all 6 categories and 90 items was higher than 0.50 and the reliability of all categories was calculated higher than 0.90 by Cronbach's alpha. In addition, the performance management model based on components of talent management had a good fit and this model had a direct significant effect on all six categories (P<0.001). Conclusion: The performance management model based on the talent management components designed in the present study had a good validity. Therefore, to improve performance management, it is possible to provide the basis for improving the components of talent management.

After a brief description of what fake news is and how it has been developed historically, we have claimed that fake news as we know it is generally a social media phenomenon. Despite the fact that Iran is considered a developing country, and not still a developed one, one might think Iran is less likely to fall prey of complicated fake news industry that negatively affect prosperous and affluent countries. But the vice versa is correct. Doing an extensive survey on previous research on fake news in Iran, we have shown how fake news will hinder unprecedented facilities for freedom of expression and even will make people contemplate giving up their freedom of expression in order to avoid or get rid of fake news. A naïve view could see a bright future for unbiased and disinterested news gathering and publishing, but research has shown in a totally unregulated media sphere, it is fake news that is more radially available and more quickly becoming viral.

Cyberbullying is a form of bullying meted out online using digital devices and platforms. This study investigated the types of cyberbullying undergraduate students in Kenyan universities experience. Specifically, it sought to determine the students’ presence on Facebook, establish how the students used Facebook, identify the types of cyberbullying they experienced, and recommend strategies of mitigating cyberbullying as a means of making Facebook safer for undergraduate students in Kenya. The study was conducted using mixed research methods. Data was collected from 4770 undergraduate students and 24 deans of students in 16 public and 8 private chartered universities in Kenya. Quantitative data was collected from the students’ using questionnaires while qualitative data was collected from students using focus group discussions and deans of students using key informant interviews. Quantitative data was analysed statistically using STATA while qualitative data was analysed thematically using ATLAS.ti. The findings of the study confirm the popularity of Facebook among undergraduate students in Kenya. Students use the platform mainly for dating, business, academics and politics. The main types of cyberbullying experienced by the students on Facebook include shaming, impersonation, blackmail, exposure and cyberstalking. In dealing with cyberbullying, university authorities should create awareness about the vice among their students; the affected students should be counselled to overcome the effects of cyberbullying; and students should be advised to be vigilant in cyberspace. The findings of this study may be applied by universities to develop a students’ support service model that makes it easy to detect and mitigate cyberbullying.
