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.
