The atmosphere and environment in which the training takes place affects the motivation and learning of the individual with different qualities. Environmental-social factors are as the spirit of the universities. The aim of this study was to develop a model of the impact of environmental and social factors on the cycle of academic motivation- lifelong learning of police students. This research is of quantitative-qualitative type. The statistical population of this study, in the quantitative part, were all students of Amin police University in associate and bachelor degrees, which were 733 people, 219 of whom were selected by stratified sampling method, and in the qualitative part included professors and elites. A focus group of 10 of them was purposefully formed as a sample. Researcher-made tool of environmental-social factors affecting academic motivation and learning, Harter standard motivation questionnaire (1981) and lifelong learning questionnaire of Wetzel et al. (2010) were used in quantitative part and semi-structured interview form in qualitative part. Analysis of quantitative data showed that the variables of family relationship with university, reduction of extra programs positively and civilian relations negatively were the most important variables predicting academic motivation. Also, the variables of civil relations and feedback mechanisms, lack of stress and space were all positively the most important predictors of learning in students of Amin police University. According to the results of the focus group, while the academic motivation of police students is more influenced by military discipline, lifelong learning is influenced by the feedback mechanism

AbstractThis study executed for the development of thinking instructional design models based on Vygotsky's sociocultural theory. The research was a mixed-method and Research design was exploratory design. The design consists of two consecutive qualitative and quantitative parts. In the qualitative section, by using the thematic analysis method, the scientific texts selected by purposeful method, consisted of 18 books and 40 articles, study and analysis. Also interviewed with 6 people of instructional design and educational psychology experts by focus group method and model developed. In the quantitative part, the developed model was validated. For internal validation, a developed model associated with the Researcher made a questionnaire with the determination of validity and Reliability coefficient 0/72 in the Cronbach alpha method, for 15 experts for judgment send and data analyzed. From the extracted themes, experts selected 3 global themes and 15 organizing themes and presented a model after determining the interaction between them. Analysis of the data obtained from the implementation of a researcher-made questionnaire for model internal validation by one-sample t-test showed that the mean of the respondents' responses to each question was significantly higher than the average of the scores in each question and as a result, the model had appropriate internal validity.

Current solution to the problems of education requires more sophisticated and smart approach by choosing that an important part of the (brain-compatible learning) is provided. Brain compatible learning considers how naturally learning take place. It seeks for changing the frame to make an effective teaching based on the structure and functions of human brain.The main objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of brain compatible learning on the components of planning and problem solving of executive functions of 4th grade of elementary school. This study has been conducted with unequal control group design from quasi-experimental design. The statistical society consisted of all male students in Salam elementary private school of Tehran) 7 school) in 2015-2016 academic year, and the target sample chosen from 38 students of the 4th grade in Salam schools in the district 5. Fifty hours of brain compatible education for experimental teachers’ group and 3 months education were performed for students according to brain compatible lesson plans for mathematics, science and literature lessons. Pre-test and post-test data were collected by using Tower of London Test and they were analyzed by one way analysis of covariance, and multiway analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). Results showed that brain compatible learning has been effective on planning component of executive functions and also brain compatible learning has been effective on problem solving component of executive functions (F=24/94, P<.0001/0, Effect Size=./416). These findings smart learning with regard to the elements and principles of brain-compatible learning emphasizes the ability to plan and problem solving.

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of life skills training on academic self-efficacy. The study population consisted of all elementary school students in Boolbanabad city. The sampling method used in this study was random sampling. For data gathering, the academic self-efficacy questionnaire MJSES (1999), before and after life skills training, was distributed among the students. Content intended to train students in the life skills program was cognitive skills, how to record maintenance information, wise use of resources, self-esteem, resiliency, problem solving thinking. The data were analyzed by SPSS-19 software, using analysis of covariance. The results showed that life skills training can affect students’ academic self-efficacy. Because these skills increase their knowledge of learning how to be better able to remember information and therefore have less forgetfulness. Therefore, their self-concept and academic achievement will be positive.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction program training on procrastination of pre-university male students. The research method was experimental with pretest-posttest design with control group. The statistical population included all pre-university male students in shahryar city in the 2012-2013 academic year, that among them by using simple random sampling, 30 students with high score on procrastination questionnaire (one standard deviation above the mean group), were selected, and randomly assigned in experimental (15) and control (15) groups. The experimental group had 8 session of mindfulness-based stress reduction program training. Tuckman's procrastination questionnaire used to gather data. The data was analyzed by covariance statistical method. Findings indicated that the research hypothesis “ effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction program training on procrastination” had been proven, and students of experimental group in comparison with control group, in posttest had a significantly less procrastination.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of epistemological beliefs and perception of constructivist learning environment on chemistry performance through the mediation of academic self-efficacy and high-level cognitive strategies. Forthispurpose, 646high school students (318 male, 328 female) were chosen through cluster random sampling method and completed a questionnaire of epistemological beliefs, perception of constructivist learning environment, academic self-efficacy, and high-level cognitive strategies scales.The structural modeling analysis indicated that epistemological beliefs and perception of constructivist learning environment had a direct and significant impact on chemistry performance, and the result indicated that relationships between epistemological beliefs and perception of constructivist learning environment with chemistry performance was mediated by academic self-efficacy and high-level cognitive strategies. In this model, all regression weights were statistically significant and predictors explained 0.75% variance of chemistry performance. In general, the results proved the direct and indirect impact of epistemological beliefs and perception of constructivist learning environment (through mediation of academic self-efficacy and high-level cognitive strategies) on chemistry performance.
