This research was conducted with the aim of determining "the effect of the learning package model based on the blended approach on the learning rate of students with visual impairment in the first period of elementary school in experimental sciences". To measure the effectiveness of this model, a quasi-experimental design with pre-test-post-test and two experimental and control groups was used. The statistical population included all students with visual impairment in the first period of elementary school. 19 students from the third grade in the academic year of 1402-1403 were selected in a purposeful and accessible manner. In this research, a blended approach (face-to-face and virtual) was used. At first, the learning package was designed and prepared, then it was used in the teaching-learning process. The measurement of students' learning was done with a researcher-made test. Mean and standard deviation were used for descriptive statistics and covariance analysis was used for inferential statistics. The results obtained from the data analysis of the research hypothesis showed that after removing the pre-test (adjusted mean), there is a significant difference between the average learning scores in the post-test phase (P<0.001) and the research hypothesis was confirmed. According to the research results, it can be said that the learning package model is effective for visually impaired students. Therefore, it is suggested to use this model in order to prepare, produce and apply the learning package for students with visual impairment.

The entrepreneurial university has an important role in country's economic development. The purpose of this research is to present the entrepreneurial university development model for public universities of Afghanistan. This applied research was conducted based on the systematic grounded theory (SY-GTM). Research participants are professors of Afghan universities. The sampling method in this research is purposeful and theoretical snowball sampling. The data collection continued until reaching theoretical saturation, and theoretical saturation was achieved with the number of 16 people in this research. The data collection tool was a semi-structured interview and the data was analyzed using MAXQDA 22 software. The reliability and validity of the data were opened by observing the participants and reviewing the experts. The results obtained from the research data of open, axial and selective coding processes were analyzed and 847 conceptual reports were classified into 25 associative categories from 16 interviews and finally six models were drawn. Research studies have shown that for the entrepreneurship of Afghanistan's public universities, a set of causal conditions are necessary, the conditions including: relationship between university and industry, commercialization research, and market-based curriculum research. the intervening environmental conditions include: awarding system and entrepreneurial leadership. The implementation of the entrepreneurial university involves these strategies: teaching entrepreneurial skills and promoting the culture of entrepreneurship inside and outside the university. This research is the first step in entrepreneurship of public universities and has helped Al-Beroni University in the field of entrepreneurship.
