This study aims to design a model for digital governance in education. The research employed a qualitative approach and, in terms of its objective, is foundational, utilizing the synthesis research method proposed by Sandelowski and Barroso (2007). The research corpus consisted of scientific documents (articles, theses, dissertations, books, and working reports) accessible in reliable domestic and international academic databases from 2015 to 2023. From these, 30 documents were selected through purposeful sampling for analysis. To analyze the data, codes were first extracted from the texts, and then categories were formed. Finally, a model for digital governance of education was developed. To ensure the validity of the findings, the descriptive and interpretive validity method (which involves a structured process of writing and recording findings and utilizing the vital tools outlined by Glynn, 2006) was employed. For assessing the reliability of the identified codes, the inter-coder agreement method was used, yielding a reliability coefficient of 81.48. The results led to the design of a model consisting of 13 categories for digital governance of education, including: the digital governance approach, digital hard technologies and infrastructures, digital platforms and soft technologies, digital curriculum and content, digital governance actors, digital governance competencies, governance processes and procedures, policymaking, norms, digital rules and regulations, digital regulation, nodes and connections between elements and agents, digital monitoring and supervision, and the contextual backdrop of digital governance of education. It can be concluded that governance, as a discipline integrated with digital technology, positions digital governance of education as a viable solution to the current challenges in the education system.

This study aims to provide a learning organization SEM and the application of done at Tehran University. The research method is descriptive-correlational and analytical method was SEM. The population was University of Tehran staffs on the number of 2730 people. Sample size by using Cochran sampling formula and simple random sampling, were selected 243 people. To collect data, a questionnaire based on the model of Peter Senge (1990) designed by reliability (94/0 = α). Also evaluated and approved content and construct validity. For data analysis, Kolmogorov-Smirnov structural equation modeling, and one-sample t-test, was used. The results showed that the learning organization model has been fitted to the data. Accordingly, the individual features of the paradigm (γ =0/24) and systematic approach (γ =0/52) been effective. Systematic approach to the common cause (β=0/51) and collective learning (β=0/44) and shared vision have also had an impact on collective learning (β=0/17) has had impact. Finally, mental models based on shared vision and collective learning as well as individual features common cause whatsoever. The results showed that the application of learning organization and all aspects of its application in the target population, below the average and only mental patterns was middle.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of self-development on job performance of University of Science and Culture employees. The research was an applied research based on goal and in terms of study type was quantitative and from the methodological view, was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population included 110 formal and contract staff of the University of Science and Culture at 2020-2021 that using stratified sampling method with proportional allocation, 86 of them were selected as the sample. To collect data from the two self-developed questionnaires of Abili and Mazari (2014) with a reliability of 0.92 and job performance with a reliability of 0.90, used, which is a combination of two questionnaires of Byrne et al (2005) and Conway (1999) is obtained. Examination of the research model showed that it fits well with the data. The results showed that self-development with a coefficient of 0.41 had an effect on employees' job performance. Also, self-development has had an effect on task performance with a coefficient of 0.30 and on field performance with a coefficient of 0.15. Also, the effect of four components of self-development on job performance was evaluated, which self-regulation and self-leadership with a coefficient of 0.17 and 0.28, respectively, had an effect on job performance. The hypothesis of the effect of self-management and self-directed learning components on job performance was rejected in this study.

This study aimed to explain the mediating role of human capital on the relationship between stuff's self-leadership and school's organizational agility. The research method was descriptive and correlational and data analysis method was SEM. The population consists of all administrators, principals, teachers and administrative staff first and second elementary school area of Rey that Using Cochran's sampling formula that Sample size was determined 170 persons by Stratified sampling with proportional allocation. For data collection used of self-leadership questionnaire of Abili and Mazari (2014) with the reliability (α =0/95), human capital questionnaire of Naderi (2011) with the reliability (α=0/97) and organizational agility questionnaire of Moradi (2013) with the reliability (α =0/96) for analyzing data Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, one sample t-test, stepwise regression and structural equation modeling was used. Results showed that self-leadership, human capital and organizational agility are higher than average. The correlation results showed that three variables correlate with each other this have significant relationship (p <0/01). Structural equation modeling showed that self-leadership (γ=0/60) on human capital and HC (β=0/81) on organizational agility have impact. Also self-leadership indirectly and with Mediating of HC impact on organizational agility (γ=0/39) but have not directly impact on organizational agility. It can be concluded that self-responsibility and self-initiate-based behaviors such as self-leadership, provides not only growth human capital, but also facilitate organizational agility through human capital.
