This study aims at investigating the experienced curricula of the skill-based higher education system from the perspectives of students therefore, a quantitative approach and a descriptive-survey method were utilized. The statistical population of the study comprised students of comprehensive scientific-applied universities in Iran. Stratified random sampling method and Cochran's formula were applied to select 660 students as the sample. Data were collected through a researcher-made questionnaireof skill-based curriculum in higher education, and the analysis was conducted through one-group t-test, Friedman. Content validity was verified and confirmed by curriculum and structural validity experts using software (PLS). The reliability coefficient was calculated using Cronbach's alpha (0.86). The final results suggest that the situation of the experienced curriculum was relatively favorable from the students' perspective in the three dimensions of "adapting the curriculum to 'the goals of the university, the skill-based system" and "executive aspects of the new curriculum." Accordingly, the skill-based higher education system in Iran requires great attention and fundamental changes need be made in curricula and teaching methods. Thus, this study suggests that the curriculum of the University of Applied Science and Technology (UAST) be designed to teach different skills, applied in professional and social life, and taught in simulated and practical educational environments in order to achieve the desired goals of the skill-based system.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the educational activities of the preschool mathematics books regarding geometric shapes using documentary method. For the analysis, we used the document published in 1396 (2017) by the Ministry of Education in Iran for preschool level., as well as the zero, first and second level of the revised Van Hiele Model (Clementes and Batista, 1992) including Pre-recognition, Syncretic and analysis as the criteria. At first level, 10 criteria for analyzing activities of geometry shapes from the first three levels of the revised Van Hiele Model (Clementes and Batista, 1992) exteracted. Then five textbooks which were recommended by Education Growth Bibliography, Welfare Organization and several preschool centers selected and their geometric shapes content evaluated according to the 10 extracted criteria. Results showed the highest frequency of educational activities belonged to level one and the lowest frequency beloged to zero level of the revised Van Hiele model. The study concluded that the content of the preschool mathematics books needs to be revised and the educational activities of higher level than two recommended to be transferred to higher grade mathematics textbooks.
