Abstract

Modern education in Iran was expanded during the 14th century under universal conditions and public will by established governments. In examining the aspects of this issue, four basic dimensions of "educational situation and school", "content and curriculum", "teacher and education activist" and "curriculum planning" were explained and it was revealed that these dimensions had different status in two halves. However, throughout the 14th century, what became the centerpiece of all education activities was the attempt to develop and promote a "culture of adherence" that was pursued in the first half based on the obedience process and in the second half based on the process of stupidity. Evidence suggests that the practice of that logic cannot be effective and acceptable, even if it persists under the pressure of the government's power. What is needed is respect for "real knowledge", which is the result of science and is achieved using the science of education.
