The present research is descriptive-analytical and in order to achieve the intended goals, the elementary school textbooks of the academic year 2020 -2021 as the statistical population of the study were analyzed by content analysis method and the data were processed using Shannon entropy method. Findings show that in general, eight skills of questioning, participating in discussions, listening to discussions and understanding issues, responsibility, cooperation and working with others, sense of place, awareness of citizenship rights and duties, and knowledge of the city and urban management institutions. The required skills related to education and the institutionalization of citizen participation can be on the agenda.

The research design is a quantitative type and the research method is descriptive-survey; The statistical population included 250 primary school teachers in Babolsar. Based on Morgan's table, a sample of 148 people was selected by stratified proportional sampling. The instrument in this section is a researcher-made questionnaire that was used with a CVR of more than 0.56 and reliability with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient above 0.92. In the second part, the research method is content analysis. The statistical population of this section is the sixth grade textbooks in the academic year 1300-1499, which includes all books in this grade (Quran, heavenly gifts, social studies, writing, work and technology, thinking and research, Persian and science) with the exception of mathematics. The checklist instrument with CVR was 0.90 and its reliability with agreement coefficient of 0.77 was used. Shannon entropy method was used to analyze the data. Findings in the first part showed a little, the level of significance calculated between the two existing and desirable conditions is 0.001 (p <0.05); In the content analysis section, in the economic component, the index of "sustainable consumption", in the social component, the index of "health", in the cultural component, the index of "cultural heritage" and in the environmental component, the index of "energy" have received the most attention. The results showed that in the opinion of teachers, the current situation of the education curriculum for sustainable development is significantly less than the desired situation, and in order to reach the desired position, the elementary school curriculum should be reviewed.

This research was practical in terms of purpose and semi-experimental in terms of method with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research consisted of all fifth grade female students of Khorram Abad city who were randomly selected and placed in three groups (two experimental groups and one control group). Among the statistical population, 30 students were selected by random sampling method, and these 30 students were assigned to three groups by random sampling method. The data collection tool in this research was self-directed learning questionnaire and exploratory training protocol in 10 90-minute sessions and collaborative training protocol in 9 90-minute sessions. Research data processing was done using descriptive and inferential statistics (analysis of covariance).

Abstract
The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between quantum teaching and constructivism with curriculum decision-making by elementary teachers in Babolsar city. The design of the current research; Quantitative and descriptive-surveillance method and the statistical population included 240 elementary school teachers of Babolsar city, and 143 people were selected as a sample based on Morgan's sampling table. The research tools were adapted from the standard constructivism questionnaire of Mohammadi, Abedini Baltrok and Mansoori (2018), the standard questionnaire of Hajitabar firouzjaee's curriculum decision-making (2018) and the researcher-made questionnaire of quantum teaching. The validity of the tool was 97%, 86% and 97% respectively, and the reliability of the tool through Cronbach's alpha was 94%, 98% and 96%. Data analysis was done with descriptive statistics (standard deviation and mean) and inferential (Pearson's correlation coefficient statistical test and multiple regression at the same time). The results showed that there is a difference between quantum teaching and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.653), between constructivism and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.763) and between quantum teaching and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.652). There is a significant relationship at the 0.05 level in Babolsar elementary school. Also, the results showed that being constructivist can predict the way of curriculum decision-making (centralized/decentralized) of elementary school teachers in Babolsar city.

Abstract
This research aims to review the historical studies on the curriculum in Iran from 1993 to 2021. The relevant papers were searched for in reputable Iranian databases (i.e., Noor Mags, Scientific Information Database (SID), Magiran, and Comprehensive Portal of Human Sciences). The search keywords were “history of the curriculum”, “historical dimensions of the curriculum”, and “historical curriculum”. The papers published in reputable Iranian scientific research quarterlies (validated by the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology) were reviewed and evaluated qualitatively through a checklist. In this review study, 40 papers were identified. Finally, 15 papers were included after all titles, inclusion and exclusion criteria, and texts were checked. The historical studies on the curriculum in Iran were divided into two categories: conventional historical studies on curriculum and modern historical studies on curriculum. The conventional historical studies on curriculum addressed the formation of different curricular elements through a narrative method from an old-fashioned perspective. However, modern historical studies on curriculum analyzed the matter through a novel historical method using analysis and criticism. In addition to presenting studies in both categories, a quarterly should be published on the history of the curriculum to conduct systematic studies on the chronicles of curricula. Given the limited number of historical studies on the curriculum in Iran, greater emphasis must be given to research on this area.
