  Abstract Peer mentoring is one of the new approaches in the professional development of employees, especially university professors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the elements of peer mentoring program for university professors, qualitative research approach and its method of synthesis research based on Roberts (2007) model. The research population consists of 347 articles on the features and models of peer mentoring for teaching professors and instructors that have been presented in prestigious scientific journals from 2005 to 2021. The research sample includes 58 scientific research articles that have been purposefully collected. Research data were collected from qualitative analysis of the studied documents. Based on the data analysis, peer mentoring components were classified into 5 dimensions and 29 factors. These dimensions include individual dimension (including factors; job skills, leadership skills, balance, decision-making skills, problem-solving skills, perceptual skills, accessibility, personality dimensions, motivation), organizational dimension (including On factors: professional development, support and encouragement, infrastructure, attention to professional components, organizational and managerial structure), cultural dimension (including factors; attention to cultural requirements) and dimension of requirements and musts (including On factors: dignity, pedagogical knowledge management, clear strategy, process personalization, cost-effectiveness, security, based on the principles of the workplace curriculum, based on hiatology, program requirements and role-paying) and communications (including component Such as, positive communication, social communication, communication in relationships and usefulness). Therefore, in order to better implement peer mentoring patterns, it is better to pay attention to all these 5 dimensions. Manuscript profile

  Peer mentoring could be mentioned as one of the novel approaches for professional development of university professors. The present study sought to propose a model for the peer mentoring program which could be employed by the professors of Teacher Training University. The statistical population included all the professors at the Teacher Training Universities and the sample were selected through criterion sampling which is considered as a variation of purposive sampling. The study data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 15 professors from Teacher Training Universities of Alborz and Tehran provinces. In the next step, open, axial and selective coding methods were used in order to analyze the data. Lincoln and Cuban criteria were used to ensure validity and reliability. The results of the research revealed thirty-five core concepts and eleven selected categories, which were organized and presented in the form of a paradigm model including planning and formulation of macro strategy, needs assessment, attitude, organizational structure redesign, revision and refinement of laws and designing a new performance evaluation system as the core subject and causal conditions (individual and organizational factors), contextual factors (environmental and organizational factors), facilitating intervention conditions (information and media literacy, professional ethics, support, mentoring relationship and job turnover, realism and revision in recruitment policy), limiting intervening conditions (politicization, materialism, weak human resource management, traditional view toward human resources, structural weakness, formalization and temporary view) and outcome (professional growth and development of Teacher Training University professors).

  This study seeks to investigate and discover the principles and standards of professional ethics for educational managers along with the related challenges. The research approach was quantitative-qualitative (mixed method). The statistical population in the qualitative phase included the principals of boys' high schools in one district of Sanandaj (Iran). Consequently, 8 individuals were selected as the study sample using the purposeful sampling method and phenomenological strategy. The study data were collected through conducting interviews including open-ended questions. The findings revealed: a) the concepts of professional ethics that educational managers adhere to with regard to the specific regulations of a profession, religious principles and values, and social norms; b) principles such as self-management, having a vision, professional capabilities, respect, commitment, and responsibility in the job; c) challenges such as structural challenges (lack of comprehensive standard, contradiction between administrative regulations, centralized management, ambiguity of goals) and individual challenges (passivity, limited visions). In order to collect the data, interviews were conducted with managers to obtain their views toward principles and standards of professional ethics, and they were asked if they adhere to these principles. Next, the data obtained from interviews were compiled and implemented in the form of a researcher-made questionnaire which was divided into two aspects: occupational principles and the other pedagogical principles. In the quantitative phase, the community (n=283) included all the teachers, assistants, and principals of boys' high schools in one district of Sanandaj. Using convenience sampling method, 163 individuals were selected as the study sample. Confirmatory factor analysis, one-sample t-test, and Friedman's test were used for data analysis. Finally, according to the results of the one-sample t-test, higher than average level of commitment was reported for managers. Also, the researcher-made questionnaire. Additionally, the results obtained through the questionnaire confirmed the results of the interviews. Manuscript profile
