        The present study intends to investigate the role of individual and environmental characteristics of teachers in transfer of learning in the sixth grade. A correlation method was performed to identify the relationships between variables that affect transfer of learning. The population was the sixth grade teachers in the district one and two of Ardabil City, who participated in summer training programs in school 1392-1393. Regarding the questionnaire items, 205 questionnaires were distributed randomly among the participants. Instruments including Teacher Professionalism Questionnaires, teacher self- efficacy, principal support, peer support and transfer of learning were used for data collection. Confirmatory factor analysis used to prove construct validity of the instruments. Path analysis results showed as follows: Peer support has- directly and indirectly- a positive effect on the transfer of learning as one of the school environmental factors through teacher professionalism (as a mediating variable), but the effect of this variable on teachers' self-efficacy was not significant. Also, principal support has an indirect positive effect on the transfer of learning, but the direct effect of principal support and self-efficacy on the transfer of learning was not significant. The results also shows that the transfer of learning to the workplace largely depends on teachers’ professionalism and peer support from the transferring process and the use of leanings in the classroom. The results can improve the schools’ environment and the management of personal and environmental factors, and finally can facilitate the transfer of learning. Manuscript profile

        The main purpose of this study was to design a Curriculum Model for the Development of Elementary School Teachers of the Iran's Educational System. This study used a qualitative research approach and was conducted based on the classical grounded theory. The statistical population consisted of Faculty members and experts in the field of Teachers development that was selected through snowball sampling. A total of 21 people, including 14 Faculty Members and 7 Teachers development specialists, were interviewed. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. The data from interviews were analyzed during three stages of open, selective and theoretical coding, and the conceptual model was formed based on the drawing of the ratio between the main categories or elements of the Teachers development curriculum. The conceptual model was formed as follows: causes and necessity (achieving the goals of the educational system, updating teacher skills, complex and flexible teacher role, reform, teacher growth and improving student learning), principles and conditions (teacher-centered, continuity and Sustainability, school-centered and job-oriented, content-oriented and based on student needs), components (content, context and process), correlated factors (personal, environmental, importance and priority, quantity, quality and time) and outcomes (teachers, Programs and students). To ensure validity and reliability, Guba and Lincoln approaches were used, including: acceptability, transferability, reliability and verifiability. Finally, based on the findings and results, guidelines for the implementation of the program are provided. Manuscript profile
