The purpose of this study is to investigate the transfer of learning in the in-service training courses of Education Department. Thus, the study went on to identify those training courses which failed, how this failure took place and what repercussions occurred and then to design the process of the justification model. Participants of this study consisted of those teachers who had participated in development courses. These participants were 23 teachers from Khorasan Razavi Province, selected purposefully on the basis of data saturation. This study was conducted within qualitative approach using grounded theory method. In order to gather the sine quo non data, semi-structured interviews were used. Afterwards, the interviews were recorded and transcribed. To analyze the gathered narrative data, Strauss and Corbin's method came to help. Consequently, two core phenomena, namely Learning and Learning Transfer emerged which emanated from contextual conditions such as learners, trainers, content, facilities and equipment, time and space, evaluation and feedback. These two phenomena culminated in outcomes which can be categorized as "consequences for Teachers" (such as negative attitude towards training, wastage of time, lack of quality teaching) and "Consequences for Students" (such as disorder and congestion, facing the same old stereotypical methods, lack of updated knowledge, apathy and monotony). At the end, to validate the emerged paradigm, the following criteria were applied: appropriateness (member check), comprehensiveness (member check), understanding (external audit and member check), and clarity (process description).

In general, attachment can be defined as the emotional atmosphere that governs a child's relationship with his caregiver. The fact that the child seeks and clings to the caregiver, who is usually his mother, confirms the attachment between them. Babies usually begin to show such behavior by the end of the first month of life, and this behavior is designed to accelerate intimacy with the desired person. According to Skinner, human mental health is equivalent to behavior that conforms to the rules and regulations of society, and such a human being when faced with a problem until it is considered normal by society, through behavior modification to improve and normalize the behavior of himself and others around him. It is used intermittently. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between attachment styles and the mediating role of mental health in teachers in Yasuj. To achieve this goal, a sample of 198 teachers in Yasuj was selected through available sampling. The instruments used included a general health questionnaire, Hazen and Shaver attachment, and Miller and Bron self-regulation. The results showed that avoidant attachment style (t = 04.50, p = 0.001) and safe attachment (t = 49/49, p = 0.013) can significantly predict mental health. Finally, mental health mediates the relationship between attachment style. Manuscript profile

Geology learning taught in secondary schools has undergone changes over time. Many researchers are looking for new strategies or trying to modify existing strategies to improve the teaching methods of this subject and help the emergence of active, critical and decisive citizens. Fieldwork is an increasingly popular strategy for integrated learning in the geosciences. In this research, we sought to identify the type and frequency of fieldwork performed by geology teachers. Also, our goal was to understand the importance of fieldwork in earth science education. For this purpose, a survey was prepared and answered by 16 11th grade biology and geology teachers. The results show that most teachers resort to fieldwork up to three times a year. Also, teachers know that the most suitable type of fieldwork for this level of teaching is problem-solving fieldwork. However, most of the activities carried out by the teachers show that they usually use the direct observation type of field work. These results show that teachers need training at the level of implementing problem-solving field work. Manuscript profile

Professional excellence in teacher education significantly enhances the quality of teacher education systems and produces competent teachers who contribute to the improvement of the national education system. Hence, this study aims to explore the components of the professional excellence curriculum in teacher educators in Finland and the United States, as two developed countries, based on a theoretical research plan using a documentary-analytical strategy. The data collection method involved studying written sources including books, articles, and documents on the curriculum for professional excellence in teacher education in Finland and the United States from 2000 to 2023. Based on the analysis of data, three principal categories were extracted: vision, content, and implementation methods of the curriculum. Each of these three principal categories of the professional excellence curriculum includes several components. Future study, as a dominant component in the vision of the countries' curricula, has been an influential factor in shaping the content and implementation methods of curricula. The content of the curriculum has been flexible and inclusive. The link between theory and practice is emphasized. In terms of implementation, educational strategies and justice-based and anti-colonial strategies have acted as two complementary strategies. In the whole curriculum, respect for professional independence and the development of a sense of agency have been emphasized as effective components in the professional excellence of educators.
