IntroductionThe category of culture and its impact on the environment is one of the dimensions of sustainable development and the first step towards achieving this goal. We need environmental ethics to achieve sustainability, development and environmental protection. An ethic that recognizes and responds sensitively to the complex and changing connections between man and nature. In order for such ethics to emerge, it is necessary to review educational methods and systems. The aim of this study was to study the effectiveness of teaching method based on the teacher- assistant project on environmental ethics of Kashan high school students. MethodThe research method was applied in terms of purpose and in terms of the nature of the collected data, quantitative and based on a quasi-experimental approach (pre-test-post-test design with control group). The statistical population consisted of all male students of 11th grade public schools in Kashan with a number of 1171 people who were selected using the Convenient sampling method in two classes of 30 people. To collect data, Firoozfar, Faqihi & Erfani (2021) environmental ethics questionnaire was used, the content validity of which was confirmed by environmental experts, and its reliability was obtained using Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.927. Data were analyzed at two levels of descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (univariate and multivariate analysis of covariance) with SPSS26 software.ResultsThe results showed that teaching method based on the teacher- assistant project has a positive effect on environmental ethics in students (P<0.0005). Also, teaching method based on the teacher- assistant project has a positive effect on the components of environmental ethics (air, soil, water, plants and animals) in students (P<0.0005).DiscussionVarious studies show that among the many ways to deal with environmental problems, the most fundamental, effective and cost-effective way to prevent environmental degradation is public education and culture and the participation of people in the community. The way of teaching and teaching, especially active teaching methods, also has a great effect on students' self-learning abilities. One of the most important active teaching methods is the method of cooperation between teacher and students and students with each other. Therefore, by using appropriate teaching methods, efforts can be made to improve the level of environmental ethics in students, so that it can be felt in society.

This research was done in order to study of social-emotional classroom climate optimization package effectiveness in primary schools. The present study has done through experimental method and pre-test/post-test control group design. The population was consisted of 12 public elementary schools in Noor city that sample composed of 8 classes of fifth-grade was selected with use of convenience sampling method. The measurements included social-emotional class-room climate optimization package that researcher have made it, Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) (Pianta, La Paro, & Hamre, 2005, 2008), Perceived Emotional Intelligence Scale (Brackett, & Mayer, 2003), & Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach, Jackson, & Leiter, 1996).

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the communication of educational department’s managers with students from the perspective of undergraduate students in Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz. The method of research was a mixed of one. To achieve this goal by using random sampling, 240 undergraduate students in their Third and Fourth year of study at Shahid Chamran University (SCU) were selected. A questionnaire was given to 210 of them and 30 of them were interviewed. The validity of questionnaire was measured by content analysis method and the reliability was computed by Cronbach alpha (0.95). The Organizational communication effectiveness of department managers and students was analyzed based on from five dimensions (structure, content, individual, organizational, and human communication). The results showed that organizational communication effectiveness of educational departments managers with students. From the perspective of content, individuals, organizational and human communications(t = 4) was not at the optimal level. However a proved to be significant in structural dimension (t = 3). The findings also showed human communications had the lowest mean and individual dimension ranked highest among the dimensions. The findings showed no significant differences between the humanities and non humanities in organizational communication effectiveness of university department's managers with students, but there were significant differences among faculties. Also, the findings showed no significant difference between boy and girl students in organizational communications dimensions, but significant differences was observed between boy and girl students in human communications dimension. Moreover, findings showed no significant difference between third and fourth year undergraduate students in all dimensions, except for the content dimension.
