Abstract

This article aims to analysis the topics, findings and suggestions presented and neglected areas of research in education and citizenship education in Iran. The current research is of a Meta-analysis type and based on it, Normagz databases, Comprehensive Humanities Portal, SID, Civilica, Elmnet, Magiran using the keywords: "citizenship education", "curriculum objectives", " Desirable citizen", "components of citizenship", "citizenship education" were searched. All journal articles published from 2002 to 2021 were reviewed and by applying filters, 23 relevant articles were selected and analyzed in the title, objectives and findings of the research. After studying and evaluating the content of the articles, the findings and suggestions presented by them were reviewed and analyzed. The findings of the research showed that the tasks and goals of the education system in citizenship education need to be reconsidered. There is no balance between the content dedicated to the topic of citizenship and other content in textbooks, and the existing content lacks sufficient usefulness and is not attractive from the audience's point of view. Some aspects of citizenship education have been neglected and according to the current conditions, the coordination between the content and the needs of today's audience needs to be taken into consideration. It is also important to pay attention to the components of media literacy and technology in citizenship education as well as e-citizen education. As a result, it is necessary to seriously review the attractiveness, quality and quantity of content and various aspects of citizenship education in Iran's curriculum.
