The Impact of Teachers' Behavior and Personality on the Formation Process of Students' National and Religious Identity
Keywords:
Identity policy, educational policyAbstract
The identity of the educational system of the Islamic Republic of Iran is centered on teaching life based on Islamic culture. The deeper and more comprehensive philosophy of education is the education of life itself. A particular responsibility of the “educational system” is to oversee the renewal, reconstruction, orientation, and integration of the country’s cultural and educational institutions. The content of textbooks and educational, moral, and developmental programs in schools, along with the teacher's personality and teaching methods, influence the formation of students' national and religious identity. Considering that the Fundamental Reform Document of Education of the Islamic Republic of Iran serves as the primary reference for designing and formulating policies, and for defining the conditions for implementing plans within the national formal public education system, it plays a central and vital role in shaping students’ identity. The findings indicate that the teacher’s role has a significant impact on the development of students' religious and national identity. Dewey believed that the pragmatic approach in schools is implemented through the role of the teacher as a supervisor. This study was conducted with the aim of exploring the impact of the educational system of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the formation of students' national and religious identity during the academic years 2023–2024. For this purpose, 22 school principals from both girls' and boys' schools across all educational levels and grades in Tehran were selected as the target population. The conclusion drawn from the study shows that national identity ranks second after religious identity.
