Abstract
The present study seeks to rethink the role of the teacher in the teaching-learning process according to the complexity theory. First, the role of the teacher is explained in the traditional vision of Comenius and Dewey's critical insight and then the role of the teacher is discussed in the complexity theory. Then, the teacher’s image as an emergence facilitator is suggested instead of their image as a representer. In this way, the facilitator role, as recommended by the complexity theory, involves creating a context for participation along with engagement and attention, hermeneutic listening, using imagination and improvising, the emergence of different interpretations, and the non-linear, unpredictable, self-regulated, and common knowledge and awareness. From this viewpoint, facilitating and learning which are considered as simultaneous and continuous and are not limited to teacher or learners, could establish a context for the emergence of common knowledge at the classroom level.

Abstract
In the new internship program for Iranian Teacher Educaton Courses, a key role for the "supervisor" has been taken into account. This paper attempts to recapture the experience of living masters of the Guide, which has experience in implementing all the internship programs (1-4) that participated in its first implementation, through an interview with 26 people in 11 provinces of the country. The basis of this is the image of the internship program. The experience of this group shows that internship programs have been "accepted" and have been able to help develop student literacy competences, increase the ability of guidance teachers, and even improve the knowledge of guidance professors. However, the implementation of the first part of this program is accompanied by problems of implementation and support, and the professors of the internship guide believe that "the new internship program should be maintained" and, in some respects, "be amended".

Abstract
In the present study, an attempt has been made to explain the theoretical elements of the transcultural approach (English as an international language) to learning English as a foreign language or as second language by introducing the philosophy of the English curriculum as a foreign language.The main points of the study are to determine the position of this approach among the existing approaches and its distinctive features in the realm of curriculum philosophy and also to examine its capacity to respond to the challenge hegemonic features of English in the age of globalization. The results indicate that the transcultural approach based on interdisciplinary research, provides explanations based on linguistic conceptualization relying on the cultural schemas of non-native learners and speakers, through which a variety of English worlds are recognized. It is known as a kind of English localization..

Abstract
This study analyzes Iranian research on science education curriculum focusing on the nature of science.How the nature of science has been addressed in Iranian research on science education curriculum is question. This study was conducted with a qualitative approach and by reviewing Iranian studies. 32 documents were examined and analyzed. The review and analysis indicate that Iranian studies have mainly focused and pay a lot of attention to the intended curriculum, at the expense of sidelining the implemented and acquired curricula.There is little field research from classrooms and a huge gap in interpretive research Also, there is almost no research on teaching the nature of science to primary students.Classroom activities and learners' experiences in educational environments are an integral part of the curriculum, therefore, it is necessary to conduct qualitative field research, such as ethnography, for gaining a deeper understanding of the implemented and experienced levels of the curriculum.
