This study has been conducted with the objective of comparing the effects of applying educational electronic content and workshop teaching method on learning and retention of mathematics in third grade boy students of the primary schools in the city of Elborz. This survey is pseudo-experimental and includes pretest-posttest designs for three sample groups. Statistical society of the survey was third grade students of primary school; out of this society, considering the type of selection method (pseudo-experimental), three third-grade primary school classes, including 20 students each, were randomly selected. Data of this study was collected in every class through three mathematics tests (pretest, posttest and test with determined intervals to evaluate retention). To analyze the data, descriptive statistics (measures of central tendency and frequency) and deductive statistics (study of data normality, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Kroit Mochelli test, and quantities of epsilon for studying uniformity of co-variances and independent T-test for evaluating the hypotheses) were applied. The findings showed that using electronic content and teaching through workshop method were effective on learning and retention of mathematics by third grade primary school students and increase the level of learning and retention.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of smart boards and the application of grammar translation and audio-lingual teaching methods in the process of learning, retention (memorization) of first grade English Language lessons of first grade of secondary smart schools. The population consisted of all female students in the first grade high school in Tabriz, who have been studying in high schools in five districts of the city in the school year of 92-93 (N=17821out of this 10051 students were males and 7769 were females. They ware sampled with simple random sampling method and the research method is a quasi-experimental research with pretest and posttest design with control and experimental groups. For analyzing data, descriptive statistics, measures of central indexes, median indexes were used, for average and standard deviation, variance and deductive statistics were used; for analyzing equality of control and experiment groups, independent T was used; and for comparing the scores of the two groups, Two-way ANOVA was used. Results indicated that the difference in the process of learning the retention in both experimental and control groups in the use of electronic board has been clear and significant. Also the results suggest that teaching through smart board along with the audio-lingual method is efficient which is applied in learning and retention of speaking skill and this effect is stronger than the application of smart board along with the application of grammar translation method for improving the process of learning and retention in reading skills.
