mathematical resilience and academic achievement in mathematics among students in the humanities. The study employed a descriptive correlational design. A total of 282 eleventh and twelfth-grade students in the humanities (138 girls and 144 boys) from Tehran were selected using convenience sampling. Participants completed the Asher and Pajares Mathematical Self-Efficacy Scale, the Kooken et al. Mathematical Resilience Scale, and their mathematics academic achievement was assessed based on the average of their previous final grades. Structural equation modeling was used for data analysis. The results revealed that mathematical resilience and mathematical self-efficacy have a direct impact on the academic achievement in mathematics among students in the humanities. Furthermore, data analysis results indicated a significant relationship between mathematical resilience and academic achievement in mathematics among students in the humanities, mediated by mathematical self-efficacy. Therefore, mathematical resilience and mathematical self-efficacy play crucial roles in the academic advancement of students in the humanities, and incorporating these components into mathematics education can be effective in enhancing the academic achievement in mathematics among students in the humanities.

Ever since its introduction, the flipped learning approach has demonstrated promising results in English language teaching. To this end, the goal of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of flipped learning on speaking in two different cooperative and competitive EFL learning settings. To conduct the study, the researchers selected 60 learners through nonrandom convenience sampling and subsequently randomly assigned them into two experimental groups of 30 learners, namely the flipped learning cooperative and the flipped learning competitive groups. Both groups underwent the same flipped learning treatment; the point of departure, however, was the fact that in one group the learners exercised cooperative learning while the other group experienced competitive learning. Prior to the treatment, all 60 learners took a speaking pretest (a sample Preliminary English Test or PET) and after the treatment, a posttest (another sample PET) was administered to them. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was run on the two groups’ scores on the pre- and posttest. The result of the study indicated that the learners sitting in the flipped cooperative group outperformed those in the flipped competitive group. The implications of the findings of this study are elaborated in the paper.

The present study was conducted with the aim of explaining the effect of knowledge management empowerment through distance learning on the performance and organizational intelligence of middle school administrators in Nimroz city. The present study is applied in terms of its purpose and is classified as a quantitative descriptive-correlation research. The statistical population of the present study consists of all middle school administrators in Nimroz city in the academic year 1402-1403, who were selected as the research sample by census method, 12 men and 12 women. The data collection tool included the Nonaka and Takachi Knowledge Management Questionnaire (1995), Yazdanijedah Manager Performance Questionnaire (2009), and Albrecht Manager Organizational Intelligence Questionnaire (2002). The data collected from the questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS26 software and descriptive statistics such as tables and graphs to show demographic characteristics, and Pearson correlation coefficient and regression test were used to infer data. After data collection, the distribution of data was examined to see if it followed a normal distribution using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The results indicated that there was a positive and significant relationship between the components of knowledge management through distance learning and the organizational performance of managers, and also between the components of knowledge management and the total score of knowledge management and the organizational intelligence of managers. Empowering the component of knowledge application is effective on the organizational performance of managers, and empowering the component of knowledge sharing and application of knowledge is effective on all components of organizational intelligence (p≤0.05). Therefore, education and training, by expanding and applying virtual networks and distance learning through Sky Room, can create a dynamic space so that managers can develop their knowledge, achieve new ideas, and acquire new knowledge.
