Purpose: The purpose of this study was to design an integrated social education curriculum model in elementary school. Methodology: The research method was a mixed (qualitative-quantitative) type of sequential-exploratory design. The statistical population consisted of 85 teachers and educational experts in the qualitative section and 830 teachers of social sciences in the quantitative section in the academic year of 2019-2020. The sample size was 40 and 263, respectively. Cluster sampling was selected. The instrument used in the qualitative part was interviews and document summaries, which extracted 70 codes and 18 themes using the content analysis sequential modeling method, and in the quantitative section, the tool used a researcher-made questionnaire. Using the factor analysis method, the extracted concepts were analyzed and analyzed into 21 sub-categories and 10 main categories. Findings: The results showed that with respect to features such as attention to learners 'educational knowledge, revision of curriculum content formulation and emphasis on flexibility components, interdisciplinary understanding, learners' abilities, and implementation of upstream education curriculum documents, modifying content-organizing approaches from subject-based approaches to integrated approaches can reinforce the elementary curriculum integrated curriculum.

The statistical population of the study consisted of 355 managers of educational departments of Fars province universities. Using Morgan table, 185 people were selected by simple random sampling as case study. The data collection tool on dimensions of competency and entrepreneurial behavior was developed by a researcher-made questionnaire whose validity was measured by confirmatory factor analysis with factor load of more than 0.4 as well as face validity (expert approval) and reliability by Cronbach's alpha more than 0.7 (managers’ competency questionnaire with 0/93 and entrepreneurship behavior questionnaire with 0/87 validity). Findings: Data were analyzed by SPSS and PLS software. The composite validity amount, the extracted variance and factor load have been achieved based on modeling for elements of competency and entrepreneurship behaviors. Conclusion: The results of structural equation modeling showed that there is a meaningful relationship between dimensions of managers' competency including communicative skills, encouragement and innovation, leadership skills, applying professional positive capabilities, team empowerment and decision-making and entrepreneurial behavior.

Data were analyzed by methods of exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modeling in SPSS and Smart PLS software. Findings : Findings showed that the effective factors on successful implementation of descriptive evaluation in the primary education system of Iran have ten factors and two dimensions of manpower (including four factors of teachers' ability, motivational factors, structural factors and factors related to students) and curriculum (including six factors of multidimensional curriculum, fit of curriculum with facilities, fit of curriculum with needs of individual and community, content of curriculum, flexibility of curriculum and students' satisfaction from curriculum). Other findings showed that the model of effective factors on successful implementation of descriptive evaluation in the primary education system of Iran had a good fit and both manpower and curriculum had a direct and significant effect on it (P<0.05). Conclusion : According to the model of the present study, for the successful implementation of descriptive evaluation in the primary education system of Iran, it is possible to improve the situation through the dimensions of manpower and curriculum and related factors.

Purpose: The aim of this research was identifying the components of the integrated curriculum of arts education from the perspective of specialists, managers and graduates. Methodology: The present study in terms of purpose was applied and in terms of implementation method was qualitative. The research population was the curriculum experts included of specialists, managers and graduates of Farhangian University in 2020 year. The research sample according to the principle of theoretical saturation was considered 28 people who after reviewing the inclusion criteria were selected by purposive sampling method. For data collection were used from take noting and semi-structured interviews methods, which its validity was confirmed by the triangulation method and its reliability was confirmed by the agreement coefficient method between the two coders (r=0.76). Finally, the data were analyzed by content analysis method with a deductive approach. Findings: The findings showed that the integrated curriculum of arts education from the perspective of all three groups of specialists, managers and graduates were included three dimensions of cognitive, skills and attitudinal and emotional competencies, which the cognitive dimension included the specialized knowledge of the integrated curriculum of arts education, general cognitive competence and general knowledge, the skills dimension included the specialized skill of the integrated curriculum of arts education and general skill and the attitudinal and emotional dimension included the attitudinal competence of the integrated curriculum of arts education and general attitudinal competence. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, curriculum specialists and planners for design an integrated curriculum of arts education needed to that considers the three dimensions of cognitive, skills and attitudinal and emotional competencies and their components
