One of the new concepts in the field of human resources management is organizational intelligence, which is increasing in importance day by day. The main goal of the present study was to identify the factors affecting the organizational intelligence of secondary school principals. The current research method was qualitative-based theory and applied research in terms of its purpose. The participants in the research were principals and vice-principals of schools in Lorestan province. Totally 20 interviews were conducted with them using the purposeful sampling method until reaching theoretical saturation. The research tool was semi-structured interviews. Open, axial and selective coding was used to analyze the data. Also, for the validity of the findings, in addition to reviewing the interview process by researchers, internal participants and external auditors were used, and for reliability, evaluators outside the research were used, and the agreement coefficient was 0.80. The data analysis led to the formation of 9 core categories, based on the paradigm model of Straves and Corbin, "empowerment" and "elements of a smart organization (including justice-oriented components, organizational transparency and research-oriented components)" as causal conditions, "organizational culture" and "leadership" "cultural" as background conditions, "organizational global horizon" as intervening conditions, "financial, psychological and environmental horizon" and "talent management" as strategies/strategies and "productivity" and "career longevity" were also consequences of organizational intelligence. Based on the current findings, the education system should pay attention to the empowerment of managers, the elements of intelligent organization and the organizational culture of managers as factors that shape and accelerate organizational intelligence.

The aim of present study was to explore the comparative effect of direct corrective feedback and recast on EFL learners’ reading comprehension in a critical thinking (CT) context. Sixty female EFL learners were selected from a larger group of 85 learners through convenience sampling and were given a Preliminary English Test (PET) to assess their proficiency levels. As the next step, the participants formed two random experimental groups. The reading comprehension abilities of both groups were measured before and after the treatment through administration of reading section of two separate versions of PET. Both groups received 12 sessions of the treatment. Two paired samples t-tests were utilized, both of which proved significant improvement for both groups from pretest to posttest. Then, the posttest scores of the two groups using an independent samples t-test were compared. Based on the results, the difference between the two groups turned out to be significant indicating superiority of the effect of the recast. This study can have important implications for the stakeholders in foreign language (FL) education.
