        The purpose of the current study is to study the readiness of petrochemical companies for organizational learning and to present an appropriate structural model for the establishment of organizational learning and knowledge management in the National Petrochemical Company. To achieve the purpose, the mixed method of qualitative-quantitative was used. To know the current situation, the quantitative survey method/ survey electronically were used in the country with the return of 801 questionnaires from 18 petrochemical companies and the variables of organizational culture, learning styles and dominant trends of learning were examined. For elaboration on the current situation and expectations of the company, the qualitative approach and grounded theory were used and finally the results of qualitative and quantitative parts were mixed. The findings show that the organizational culture of petrochemical companies in the current situation has more skewers towards the hierarchy and to some extent towards the market, and the components of family culture and especially Ad hoc are poor. Also, among the four learning styles, in the company’s current situation the convergent and divergent poles are dominant and also assimilating and adapting styles have less frequency. In terms of existing training programs, the general attitudes can be observed to the personal acquisition of knowledge instead of attending the formal training programs. Also, the qualitative findings and the results of interviews highlighted the changes in three areas; requirements, key processes, learning operations for the establishment of organizational learning.

        <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi;">The use of educational methods tailored to the personal characteristics of architecture students has garnered significant attention from researchers in recent years. Emphasizing students' learning styles, which is a crucial aspect of individual differences, is of paramount importance. This descriptive-analytic study investigates the relationship between the learning styles of architecture students and their creativity and academic performance. Additionally, in the second phase of the research, the impact of proposed architecture training models on enhancing learners' creativity is examined. The statistical sample comprises 107 individuals, including high school students and both undergraduate (BA) and graduate (MA) students. Data collection was conducted using Kolb's learning styles questionnaire. Furthermore, the grades from the design workshop courses of the students before and after implementing the educational models were recorded. In this research, the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method was utilized to determine the significance of varying levels of creativity among different learning styles. Additionally, in the second phase of the study, an independent t-test was employed to assess the impact of the educational models on improving learners' creativity. The results indicate that students with a divergent learning style exhibited the best performance in creative design and adaptation to educational models. Finally, the integration of individuals with different learning styles into groups for design projects was presented.</span></p> Manuscript profile
