Purpose: The present research was conducted with the purpose of providing a quality model of the curriculum in the secondary (first) period of Shiraz city with an emphasis on the virtual approach.Methodology: The current research was applied in terms of purpose and integrated (qualitative-quantitative) in terms of implementation method. In the qualitative part, the participants in the Delphi panel were 20 university experts in the field of curriculum planning in Shiraz, who were selected purposefully. The statistical community in the quantitative part, there were 2953 teachers in the 1st and 2nd districts of Shiraz in the academic year of 2020-21, and based on Cochran's formula, 350 were selected as the sample size by random sampling. The research tools in the qualitative part were interviews and background literature review, and in the quantitative part, the researcher made a questionnaire. Validity of the findings was done with formal validity and reliability using Cronbach's alpha method, which was 0.88. To analyze the data in the qualitative part, Delphi coding and analysis method and in the quantitative part descriptive statistics (percentage, average and standard deviation) with Spss23 software and inferential (structural equations-confirmatory factor analysis) with Lisrel 8.8 software were used. became.Findings: Qualitative findings showed that 6 dimensions (purpose, content, method, planning, evaluation and technology), 19 components and 57 indicators were identified for the curriculum quality model in the first secondary school. Also, the results of the factor analysis showed that the content dimension with factor load (t=20.21 and 0.88), goal (t=18.32 and 0.83), technology (t=0.78 and 11.17), evaluation (75 t=0.72 and 16.72), method (t=0.71 and 15.62) and planning (t=0.68 and 13.92) had the greatest effect on curriculum quality, respectively.Conclusion: Curriculum planners can pay serious attention to the 6 dimensions identified in this research in order to increase the quality of the first secondary curriculum and focus on the content dimension and its compatibility with virtual methods in particular.

Purpose: Considering the importance of career path planning and its pathology, the aim of this study was presenting a pathological pattern of career path planning with a high performance approach with using fuzzy Delphi technique.Methodology: This study in terms of purpose was practical and in terms of implementation method was descriptive from type of survey. The statistical population of this study was all the employees of Iran's gas transmission ten region. The sample size based on the table of Krejcie and Morgan table was estimated to be 323 people, but to be sure the sample size was considered 350 people, who were selected by cluster random sampling method. The tool of the current research was a researcher-made questionnaire of the pathology of career path planning with 132 items, which whose validity and reliability were evaluated as appropriate. Data were analyzed with methods of fuzzy Delphi, exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modeling in SPSS and Lisrel software.Findings: The items of the researcher-made questionnaire of the pathology of career path planning were examined with a fuzzy seven-degree scale, and the investigations showed that after two Delphi rounds number of 128 items had an agreement coefficient higher than 0.70. Also, the categories of the pathological pattern of career path planning with a high performance approach had a factor load of higher than 0.50 and Cronbach's and combined reliability of higher than 0.80. The mentioned pattern had a good fit and in this pattern causal factors on the central phenomenon, central phenomenon, background conditions and intervening conditions on strategies and strategies on outcomes had a direct and significant effect (P<0.001).Conclusion: According to the results of this study and the designed pathological pattern of career path planning with a high performance approach, appropriate planning with that is necessary to improve the career path.
