The aim of this research is to study the components of creativity in elementary school curricula. The research method used in this research is content analysis. The information source of this research is the 6th Grade Mathematics textbook in the academic year 1391-92. To achieve face validity, the viewpoints of the educationalists and experts were used in this research, and to achieve reliability, according to Pearson’s formula of correlation, the agreement coefficient of 0/89 was derived from the codification board. The tool of this research is the content analysis form with regard to Plsek’s teaching creativity model. A coded form was used to analyze the content of 6th Grade Mathematics textbook this task was accomplished in four stages: at the first stage, active and inactive units of the textbook were specified. At the second stage, the inactive units were deleted. At the third stage, the active Units were coded based on the parameters of Plsek’s guided cycle of creativity, and at the fourth stage, data resulted from the research were analyzed by using Shannon Entropy analysis method and the descriptive statistics methods. The findings indicate that the degree of attention and involvement parameters of Plsek’s creativity model and the coefficient degree of importance for each parameters are very low, and so the contents of 6^th grade mathematics textbook are nor adapted to the Plsek’s creativity principles and it hardly can be effective in generating and fostering creativity in learners.

The present study was conducted with the aim of identifying and explaining the prerequisites of a dialogical teaching-learning strategy, proportionate‎ to generational characteristics of todaychr('39')s ‎undergraduate students, using the mixed method. The tools used in the qualitative and quantitative sections were semi-structured interview and researcher-made questionnaire, respectively. The analysis of the findings in the qualitative part is based on grounded theory and in the quantitative part is descriptive-survey. The statistical population in the qualitative section was the experts, of which the sample of them continued in a targeted manner‎. The statistical population in the quantitative section, consisted of faculty members and undergraduate ‎students from whom the research sample was selected from them by stratified ‎random method. Based on the findings, 8 important prerequisites were identified. As a result, the academic motivation and scientific growth of todaychr('39')s students, depends on the efforts of teachers in the application of the mentioned Prerequisites.
