There is a vast literature on aesthetics, visual design principles and graphic design theory. But very little has been discussed about the trend of e-learning and online courses in terms of aesthetics. One of the main obstacles to obtaining the required knowledge in this field is the lack of understanding of practical definitions and conceptual ideas in this field. The appropriate use of aesthetic concepts can be effective in accepting the learning system in terms of functionality and ease of use, going beyond instrumental features and paying attention to non-instrumental features such as emotional, aesthetic and motivational aspects of e-learning design according to the needs of learners and on the one hand cause their learning and satisfaction and on the other hand increase the efficiency of the education system and finally lead to a valuable learning experience. Although the definition of aesthetics in e-learning is complex, it can be said that it includes three basic elements: an acceptable appearance, an attractive visual interface, and an orderly content, and a combination of these three elements. These elements increase the learning experience and strengthen its results and affect the entire system. Therefore, the purpose of the current research is to explain the concepts and process of using beauty and visual aesthetics to improve the e-learning experience and expand the knowledge of visual aesthetics in this field by using the scope research method.

In the present study, with the aim of determining the effectiveness of interventions based on emotional and social skills and identifying multiple moderators in this field of study, the meta-analysis method was used. After specifying the entry and exit criteria, intervention efforts based on emotional and social competence programs were extracted from the databases, and in this way, 30 studies and 162 effect sizes were selected for the final analysis. The data of the present study were analyzed using the second edition of comprehensive meta-analysis software (CMA2). The results of data analysis showed that the overall effect size of interventions based on emotional and social competences on teachers' emotional well-being was 0.598. Also, the results of the analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the effect size of the studied studies according to the gender of the participants, the number of training sessions and according to the components of the dependent variable. In general, the results showed that although educational interventions based on emotional and social skills have an effective role in increasing the emotional well-being and reducing the psychological disturbance of teachers; But focusing on the explanatory role of some moderators such as the target community, the nature of the dependent variables and the number of training sessions has a decisive role. Key words: meta-analysis, moderators, emotional and social competences, emotional well-being

The purpose of this research was to design mobile learning based on the STEAM approach and to determine its effect on students' learning in sixth-grade mathematics. The research was applied as quantitative and quasi-experimental in the form of a pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of the research was all sixth-grade students of Gorgan city in the academic year of 1402-1401. Using the available sampling method, 70 people were selected as a sample, and randomly 35 people were in the control group and 35 people were in the experimental group. became A researcher-made test used to collect the data. Covariance analysis was used to analyze quantitative data and test hypotheses. The findings indicate that the difference between the post-test scores in the two experimental and control groups in the year math course's learning levels (analysis, evaluation, and creation) is significant. Therefore, the design of mobile learning based on the STEAM approach affects the learning of sixth-grade elementary students in mathematics.

The purpose of this research was to present a cyberbullying prevention model based on the participation of students, schools and parents. The approach of this research was theory-generating Meta-Synthesis, A systematic search of sources in databases was done and according to the exclusion criteria, 67 original articles were selected. First, 66 open codes were first extracted, and then based on similarities, conceptual relationships and common characteristics between the open codes, 17 axial codes included people (such as parents, counselors, etc.) ..), intervention programs (including special programs for students, such as intervention based on martial arts, preventive intervention, etc.), students (such as promoting and increasing empathy, promoting personality development, etc.), capabilities created in others (such as increasing teachers' awareness and increasing the role of parents in supervision, etc.), emotional-psychological consequences ( (such as creating a supportive environment, improving social support, etc.) and social consequences (such as reducing the impact of cyberbullying, reducing victimization in cyberbullying, etc.) were determined, and finally,. cyberbullying prevention model based on the participation of students, schools and parents model developed and the validation of the model findings was done using the reliability and transferability techniques. Based on the available findings, it can be said that in order to empower students against cyberbullying, it is necessary to raise their own awareness and raise awareness and support of parents and teachers, administrators and school counselors, along with the use of special programs and software to prevent and train cyberbullying.

The present qualitative research was conducted with the aim of explaining the perception and attitude towards procrastination and its factors (contextual, continuous and revealing) in students. This study was conducted using the grounded theory method. First, the prevalence of procrastination was analyzed among the students of the Persian Gulf University in the academic year 2023-2024, and students whose grades were two standard deviations higher than the average were identified as procrastinators. Then, using a semi-structured interview, necessary information was collected from 22 procrastinating students. The findings in the perception and attitude of procrastination show two main categories (negative and positive) and seven primary concepts (delay in performing tasks, personality traits, burnout, negative emotion, self-blame, temporary positive attitude, having confrontational thoughts). they gave Procrastination factors from three main categories (contextual, sustaining and revealing factors) and twelve primary concepts (personality characteristics, family, parenting style, low self-esteem, virtual space, burnout, lifestyle, corona era, educational background, communication with others, adolescence and career field) were formed. The stable personality, family and motivational patterns of the central class shaped the current findings. These findings have important practical implications in understanding the personality, family, and motivational profiles of procrastinators.

This research was conducted with the aim of developing and validating the educational package of brain- compatible learning based on Cain's theory and its effectiveness on the academic engagement of elementary school girls. The statistical sample in order to validate the training package produced included 15 experts who have expertise in the subject of brain-compatible learning, who were selected in a purposeful way. The statistical sample in the quantitative section was 40 elementary school students in Tehran's 2nd district, who were selected by multi-stage sampling method. The research tool included the academic engagement questionnaire (Reeve, 2013). This questionnaire was taken from two experimental and control groups before and after the implementation of the educational package as a pre-test, post-test and follow-up after 3 months. Statistical analysis in the quantitative section was performed using covariance analysis in SPSS25 software. The results in the qualitative part showed that the brain-compatible learning package based on Caine's theory has a good validity. In quantitative part, the results of the multivariate covariance analysis test showed that the average academic engagement of the group receiving brain-compatible learning training based on Caine's theory was higher than the students in the control group (sig = 0.001). The effect of this educational intervention was stable after three months. Therefore, the educational package of brain -compatible learning based on Cain's theory was effective on the academic engagement's elementary girl students and can be an effective and practical tool in order to create meaningful learning and academic performance of female students.
