Abstract

It seems that the method of teaching history in Iran suffers from problems and the way out of this problem is dialogue between stakeholders. This dialogue takes place through the formation of civic organizations and activities in the public sphere. The "Education Working Group of the Iranian History Association", consisting of a group of concerned teachers of history in Tehran, is one of these institutions, which was established in 2014 and has dozens of activities on its agenda. One of these measures is the holding of a series of "history teaching conferences in schools" in which the problem of inefficient methods of teaching history has been reviewed by some history teachers. The findings of this article, which uses the statistical-descriptive method and based on the content of the articles of the teaching methods of the history of the four second, third, fourth and fifth conferences - whose selected collection of articles have been published - show: The methods of teaching history in Iranian schools are traditional - often in the style of lectures - and rarely the teachers of this subject are willing to use new technologies in teaching history.
