The current research was conducted with the aim of providing a suitable solution for using Holoport augmented reality technology in order to develop, facilitate and objectify the communication process in education based on the connectivism theory. The problem of the research was how to use augmented reality in the theory of connectivism, which was done by a systematic review method and using the PRISMA protocol. The content required for the systematic review included valid scientific articles and documents, and finally 24 articles were selected out of 37. The inclusion criteria of the article were the full relevance of the article title to the topic of Holoport and connectivism, the novelty of the article, conducting the research in the period between 2005-2023, the validity of the publication and the correct research method. Key words for searching in scientific databases included holoport augmented reality, holoporting and connectivism theory. Search databases included SAGE Journals, ERIC, Elsevier, Web of Science, IEEE, Sciencer, Direct, Scopus, Google Scholar, ISD, Noormags, Civilica, Irandoc and Magiran. The findings showed that in education based on connectivism theory, the use of augmented reality is possible through Holoport technology, and this increases the level of interaction, creating situation-oriented education and virtual presence in real time and place. As a result, by using this technology, people physically feel each other next to each other and create a face-to-face interaction by creating a multi-person holoport network. By overcoming the limitations of this technology, face-to-face virtual education will be formed.

This research has been conducted with the aim of providing a causal model for predicting educational satisfaction from online classes based on family communication patterns with regard to the mediating role of self-efficacy beliefs among students of Shiraz University's virtual courses using the path analysis method. For this purpose, 331 people (214 girls and 117 boys) from students of Shiraz University's virtual courses were selected by convenience sampling method and a self-report questionnaire consisting of the subscales of Koerner and Fitterpatrick's family communication patterns (2002), self-efficacy beliefs of Morris (2001) and academic satisfaction and colleagues (2007) responded. The technical characteristics of the measuring instruments were also checked and approved. In addition, this research is descriptive and correlational from the point of view of implementation method. In general, the results of the research showed that communication patterns of dialogue and listening indirectly and positively influence the academic satisfaction of students through mediation of self-efficacy beliefs and conformity communication pattern indirectly and negatively. Also, in the fitted model of this research, 27% of the variance of academic satisfaction was explained by family communication patterns and self-efficacy beliefs.

New studies present a disturbing picture of distance learning of experimental science courses, especially at the elementary level, this type of education, which is not so dependent on the presence of students in the classroom, is not popular among many of them. This research has been done to investigate the effect of the community of inquiry practices on argumentation-driven skills in experimental sciences. The research design was semi-experimental and the statistical population consisted of 26 male students of the sixth grade of one of the schools in Babolsar city of Mazandaran province in the academic year of 2022. The Sampling method, targeted, and intervention included the implementation of the community of inquiry model based on argumentation-driven skills in the experimental group, while the control group received traditional teacher-oriented training. The results showed that the socialization of the online inquiry based on these skills has positive effects on the quality of learning and increases the student’s motivation in the course of experimental sciences. This study recommends conducting larger-scale research to implement a community of inquiry based on an argumentation-driven skills model in an online context.

The main purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of learning strategies and positive attitude towards school with the mediating role of achievement goals on academic self-efficacy in mathematics for sixth grade female students of Aligudarz city. The research method was applied and descriptive-survey. The statistical population of 6th grade female students of Aliguderz city in the academic year of 2022-2023 was 784 people. By Cochran^,s formula, 258 people were selected by simple random sampling method. In order to collect data from the standard questionnaires academic self-efficacy in mathematics subject of Jink and Morgan (1999), the learning strategies of Pintrich and de Groot's (1990), the attitude towards school of McCutch and Siegel (2003) and the achievement goals of Middleton and Migli (1997) was used. The results of the research show that learning strategies and positive attitude towards school with the mediating role of achievement goals do not have an indirect effect on academic self-efficacy in mathematics. Learning strategies with the mediating role of progress goals in mathematics course do not have an indirect effect on academic self-efficacy in mathematics course. Positive attitude towards school with the mediating role of achievement goals in math lesson does not have an indirect effect on academic self-efficacy in math lesson. Also, learning strategies in mathematics have a direct effect on academic self-efficacy in mathematics. A positive attitude towards school has a direct effect on academic self-efficacy in mathematics.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of virtual English training learning on language learning motivation and symptoms of attention deficit/hyperactivity in students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. This research was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and was quantitative in terms of the nature of the data. The statistical population of this research was made up of ninth grade students suffering from attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder who referred to psychotherapy centers in areas 1-5 of Tehran. Based on the criteria for entering the research, 16 people were selected by purposive sampling and randomly divided into two experimental and control groups. The experimental group received virtual English language training through the Adobe Connect platform for 12 sessions of 60 minutes each session, and the control group did not receive any training. The research tools were Gardner (1959) foreign language learning motivation and attitude questionnaire and Swanson (1980) attention deficit disorder questionnaire. In order to analyze the data, the statistical model of multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) and repeated measurement was used. The findings of the present study showed that in the experimental group there was a significant change in language learning motivation (P=0.001 and F=18.18) and attention deficit/hyperactivity symptoms (P=0.01 and F=34.7).Based on the data obtained from the research, it can be concluded that the virtual English language training program is effective in increasing the motivation to learn the language and improving the symptoms of attention deficit/hyperactivity in students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
