Abstract

This research aims to develop a model for a learning school in Iran that can effectively respond to unpredictable environmental changes. The study employed a systematic literature review, foundational data theory, and MAXQDA10 software to identify the components and dimensions of a learning school in Iran. The research focused on learning organizations and higher education documents in Iran from 2005 to 2022. Initially, a search was conducted in the Islamic World Science Database (ISC), resulting in 146 articles, out of which 10 articles were selected as the final research sources after various screening processes. The researchers identified 318 primary codes, 105 secondary codes, 10 themes, and 3 significant dimensions through analysis and coding stages. The learning school model included three key dimensions: the structure of the learning organization (professional leadership, learning environment, learning processes), learning organization technologies (knowledge management technology, learning technologies), and learning organization skills (personal capabilities, mental models, shared vision, team learning, and systemic thinking). To validate the coding process, the researchers used the two-coder agreement method to measure the kappa coefficient, which yielded a value of 0.68. Additionally, expert opinions confirmed the validity of the coding and the level of influence of the criteria on each other in the model. In conclusion, this research successfully developed a model for a learning school in Iran, emphasizing the importance of an adaptable structure, effective use of learning technologies, and the cultivation of necessary skills.
