Humor in education is an essential tool that can help teachers to enhance student learning by creating a motivating classroom environment. Using humor in the classroom requires certain techniques and principles that can be learned. Some types of humor have positive results and increase the effectiveness of teaching. In contrast, there are other types of humor that, when used in the teaching process, have negative effects on the teaching and learning process. In this regard, the category that has been studied in this study is the category of Frymier et al. (2008, p.5,4) which classifies humor in teaching in to two categories: appropriate humor and inappropriate humor. Appropriate humor means that humor is not offensive or appropriate for the classroom. Inappropriate humor is a type of humor that is offensive or not appropriate for the classroom. MethodThis research is a quantitative research based on statistical analysis of numerical information in terms of approach and data collection method. In terms of purpose, it is applied and in terms of nature and method, it is a descriptive research, survey type. The statistical population of this study included all secondary school students in Shush city (Khuzestan province) in the academic year 2019-2020. The minimum sample size was calculated according to Morgan table and a total of 366 students were selected by stratified random sampling method. The required data were collected through an appropriate and inappropriate humor questionnaire (Frymier et al., 2008). Using Cronbach's alpha, the reliability of the questionnaire was calculated (α=0.95). One-sample t-test, independent t-test and dependent t-test were used to analyze the data.ResultsFindings showed that teachers' use of two types of appropriate and inappropriate humor was less than average, while teachers in the teaching process were used more appropriate humor than the inappropriate one. Also, male teachers, more than female teachers, have used appropriate and inappropriate humor in the teaching process.DiscussionStudent learning is very important, and it is the teacher's task to produce his teachings- learning process, and topics with appropriate communication tools to make student learning a reality. One of these communication tools is humor, which the teacher should be able to use the best types of humor, including the appropriate humor that helps the teaching-learning process.}, keywords = {humor,teaching,Curriculum,appropriate and inappropriate humor,High School}, title_fa = {بررسی به‌کارگیری شوخ طبعی در فرایند تدریس توسط دبیران}, abstract_fa = {این پژوهش با هدف آگاهی از میزان استفاده دبیران از شوخ طبعی مناسب و نامناسب در فرایند تدریس انجام شد. پژوهش حاضر یک پژوهش کمّی و کاربردی و از لحاظ روش گردآوری داده ها، توصیفی پیمایشی است. جامعه آماری این پژوهش شامل کلیه دانش‌آموزان دوره اول و دوم متوسطه شهر شوش(استان خوزستان) در سال تحصیلی 99-1398 بود. حداقل حجم نمونه طبق جدول مورگان محاسبه شد و در مجموع 366 دانش‌آموز با روش نمونه گیری تصادفی طبقه ای متناسب با حجم جامعه انتخاب شدند. داده‏های موردنیاز از طریق پرسشنامه شوخ طبعی مناسب و نامناسب (Frymier et al., 2008) گردآوری شد. با استفاده از آلفای کرونباخ، پایایی پرسشنامه شوخ طبعی مناسب و نامناسب 95/0 تعیین گردید. برای تحلیل داده ها از آزمون تی تک گروهی، تی مستقل و تی وابسته استفاده شد. یافته‏های پژوهش نشان داد دبیران در تدریس از شوخ طبعی مناسب بیشتر از شوخ طبعی نامناسب استفاده کرده بودند. البته به طور کلی میزان استفاده آنان از شوخ طبعی(مناسب و نامناسب) کمتر از متوسط بود. دیگر یافته این پژوهش نشان داد دبیران مرد بیشتر از دبیران زن، از انواع شوخ طبعی در فرآیند تدریس استفاده کرده اند.}, keywords_fa = {شوخ طبعی,تدریس,برنامه درسی,شوخ طبعی مناسب و نامناسب,دوره متوسطه}, url = {https://education.scu.ac.ir/article_17616.html}, eprint = {https://education.scu.ac.ir/article_17616_d9fe64aef74649dfabb179186be02d77.pdf} }
