  • The Relationship Between Iranian EFL Institutes Teachers Beliefs And
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 5, No. 9, pp. 1828-1835, September 2015 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/tpls.0509.09 The Relationship between Iranian EFL Institutes Teachers’ Beliefs and Their Instructional Practices regarding Writing Strategies Hajar Bidabadian Department of English, Najafabad Branch, Islamic Azad University, Najafabad, Iran Omid Tabatabaei Department of English, Najafabad Branch, Islamic Azad University, Najafabad, Iran Abstract—Understanding the L2 teachers’ attitudes and beliefs toward writing practices, on the one hand, and applying those beliefs in actual teaching activities, on the other hand, can uncover the real reasons of Iranian language learners’ difficulty in dealing with writing skill and tasks. The present study was an attempt, first, to examine and investigate the construct of teachers’ belief systems about writing strategies among EFL institute teachers, then to investigate and explore the extent of discrepancies or consistencies between teachers’ beliefs about writing strategies and their practical teaching activities in the context of English teaching as a foreign language in different institutes of Najaf Abad, Tiran and Goldasht in Iran. To these ends, 60 EFL institute teachers teaching at different language institutes in Najaf Abad, Tiran and Goldasht participated in this research. The teachers were both male and female with teaching experience ranging from 5 to 25 years. Using a validated researcher- made questionnaire, the obtained data revealed that most Iranian teachers had positive beliefs and attitudes toward most of the mentioned English writing strategies in the research questionnaire. Also, Iranian teachers considered the compensational and social aspects of writing strategies more significant than the other aspects in their actual class practices.

  • Agroclimatic Zones Map of Iran Explanatory Notes
    AGROCLIMATIC ZONES MAP OF IRAN EXPLANATORY NOTES E. De Pauw1, A. Ghaffari2, V. Ghasemi3 1 Agroclimatologist/ Research Project Manager, International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo Syria 2 Director-General, Drylands Agricultural Research Institute (DARI), Maragheh, Iran 3 Head of GIS/RS Department, Soil and Water Research Institute (SWRI), Tehran, Iran INTRODUCTION The agroclimatic zones map of Iran has been produced to as one of the outputs of the joint DARI-ICARDA project “Agroecological Zoning of Iran”. The objective of this project is to develop an agroecological zones framework for targeting germplasm to specific environments, formulating land use and land management recommendations, and assisting development planning. In view of the very diverse climates in this part of Iran, an agroclimatic zones map is of vital importance to achieve this objective. METHODOLOGY Spatial interpolation A database was established of point climatic data covering monthly averages of precipitation and temperature for the main stations in Iran, covering the period 1973-1998 (Appendix 1, Tables 2-3). These quality-controlled data were obtained from the Organization of Meteorology, based in Tehran. From Iran 126 stations were accepted with a precipitation record length of at least 20 years, and 590 stations with a temperature record length of at least 5 years. The database also included some precipitation and temperature data from neighboring countries, leading to a total database of 244 precipitation stations and 627 temperature stations. The ‘thin-plate smoothing spline’ method of Hutchinson (1995), as implemented in the ANUSPLIN software (Hutchinson, 2000), was used to convert this point database into ‘climate surfaces’.

Zoological Museum & Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics, University of Amsterdam PO Box 94766, 1090 GT Amsterdam, the Netherlands 2. Faculty of Science, Department of Biology, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran * Correspondence Author. Email: [email protected] Received 14 June 2007; accepted 1 December 2007 Abstract: This article lists 99 articles on distribution of wild birds in Iran, which appeared between 1876 and 1977 and which were published by authors writing in European languages. Each paper has a reference number and is supplied with annotations, giving the localities and time of year where the bird observations had been made. These localities are also listed on a separate website (www.wesca.net/podoces/podoces.html), supplied with coordinates and the reference number. With help of these coordinates and the original publications an historical atlas of bird distribution in Iran can be made. A few preliminary examples of such maps are included. Many authors also collected bird specimens in Iran, either to support their identifications or in order to enravel subspecies taxonomy of the birds of Iran. The more important natural history museums containing study specimens from Iran are listed.
