Designing an educational system is costly and a time consuming task, hence, providing electronic learning modules according to the characteristics of each learner in order to reduce the learning time and increase productivity of education is very important. The purpose of this study is to provide an electronic module according to the learning characteristics of each student, using some of the e-Learning standards, learning theories , memetic algorithm and also assess the learning outcomes of this approach. At the stage of subject preparation to teach each concept, a set of maximum possible learning activities is provided with different materials such as slides, lectures, etc. The compatibility between the activities and characteristics of student who want to learn is produced based on the theory of Folder on learning styles and Bloom's theory for knowledge classification. Student learning styles are designed based on a questionnaire using Folder approach and testing of his/her knowledge is extracted based on Bloom's theory and learning path which is include the proper ordering of learning activities is produced based on memetic algorithm. The populations of this study were 40 girls of third-year computer science class of high school in Zahedan. They were selected randomly. They have been subdivided into two groups of 20 randomly. The proposed system is trained with 20 people and 20 people have traditionally learned their lesson. Comparison between the proposed approach and traditional method in term of quality of education were performed. The results indicate that the proposed method has good quality.

This aim of this study is to consider the influencing factors in information technology acceptance among university student. The developed model of acceptance, stress parameters, computers effectively organizational support and cultural values entered into it. 295 students of Uromiye University were selected as samples to answer the questionnaire. The result showed that the technology acceptance model structure is able to make prediction, in order to decide about using the computer and it can predict18 percent. Computer self efficiency has a positive effect and computer stress has a negative effect on ease of use. Ambiguity aversion and power have a positive effect on computer stress and ambiguity aversion has a negative effect on computer self efficiency. The effect of organizational support was a negative on computer stress and a positively on comport self efficiency. This project showed that the personal, organizational, and cultural factors generally are effective on technology acceptance and it is necessary for programmer to consider these elements.

Using web 2.0 tools in education in general and language learning in particular for creating an active learning environment is getting momentum these days. With all these, however, and despite the wide range of available web 2 tools, these tools have not been used properly to improve language learning and teaching in the Iranian context. Accordingly, this study investigates the efficacy of web 2 tools for language learning in the western city of Ilam, Iran. To this end, the effect of some web 2 tools, such as blogs, wikis, e-mail service, social networks, podcasts and Podcast’s on four different language- speaking, listening, writing, and reading comprehension was investigated. The study was conducted in a language institute in Ilam on 71 language learners who were assigned to elementary, intermediate, and advanced levels and were divided into experimental and control groups. Learners in the experimental group were taught English with web 2 tools for two months, while the control group was taught through the classical teaching methods currently used in the country. The results showed the effectiveness of applying web 2 tools on intermediate and advanced levels, while the elementary level did not show any significant progress. Regarding the skills, the tools examined were found to have more positive effect on reading, writing, and listening skills

Electronic learning shows in general refer to methods that use electronic educational content This research have been done among university faculty of Lorestan Province which has familiarity with learning systems.. According to statistical society (unlimited) the size of the sample determines 150 people and with %5 significance level. Instrument used in this research was closed questionnaire and for determining the relations between variables, data by path analysis technique and correlation matrix has been used effects directly on usefulness of understanding with a coefficient of .28. Understanding of extended network and self-success of computer with effect on ease of understanding indirectly effect with a coefficient of .20 on electronic learning system acceptance. Also Learners by greater confidence in using computers believe their ability to use e-learning system for education and perceptual the usefulness of system in E-learning and use it. As a result, they consider system as a useful tool in learning.

Physical education and sports are the integral part of education in adolescence and is a useful tool that provides opportunities for real life experiences. The purpose of this study was to assess the extent of explaining and modeling method is studying physical education in primary schools that was performed by the descriptive survey method. The population sample consisted of 100 elementary school physical education teachers in IslamShahr on 1391-1392. Research tool was researcher made questionnaire with 30 closed questions. Cronbach's alpha reliability test (Course offered in the game, 0/865, to evaluate 0/912, to compete0.61, class management 60/0 and teaching methods 0/891) was used, Which has been named and classified according to the exploratory analysis. The result showed that there is a meaningful correlation between teaching physical science factors in terms of game, teaching methods evaluation and competitions. In teaching physical science teaching by using game, teaching and completion were factors that teachers pay more attention to them, but the teacher’s class management methods has meaningful relation to students’ completion. So we can suggest our managing suggestion in this regards.

Nowadays in the world and also in our country distance learning education is extended day by day. Educational systems now have a different approach in terms of teaching. They also used more cooperation of students in terms of increasing the quality of teaching. This study was designed to provide a framework for evaluating the success of an interactive training system from a distance based on the web 2 in Tehran schools, The research model of Wang and Chiu (2011) was used to evaluate factors influencing the success of the measure and test the research model, data were collected from 402 high school students in Tehran by a questionnaire with 32 questions. Results showed that information quality, system quality and service quality have a positive impact on relationship quality in an e-learning 2 training system. The above three factors has positive effects on users' satisfaction and loyalty intention in an e-learning system 2 will also contribute. In addition, more attention to aforementioned factors cause increase the quality of education and educational system success in distance learning education based on Web2 in Tehran high schools.

Present Study as a "meta-analysis" research aims to determine the role and methods of communication, regarding verbal and nonverbal learning in mathematics is provided. Research conducted for this purpose (18 Researches) on mathematic teaching, in the form of research papers published in the Journal of Educational Innovations, as the main concept was considered. Out of the 8 research papers published in terms of attention to communication variables has more extension of the statistical society of this research. Then, according to the variables performance methods, questions and results showed in them was descriptive-qualitative and get “meta-analysis. The main question of this study is to research on mathematics teaching is based on the method of communication, what are the similarities and differences in the use of effective communication? During the investigation, it was determined that the communication patterns of multiple and sometimes conflicting have more attentions and proposed recommendations, which are as follows: emotional, participatory, supporting, visual, objective and balanced in a form of speech, physical, visual and audio that leads to any progress performance of learners and their learning mathematics and problem solving.
