Objective: The field of education is one of the broadest fields of public administration in the country, and in recent years, many criticisms have been raised about its performance, especially in the field of policy making. However, it seems that the use of people's participation in the field of education policy can have valuable results, although this issue has received less attention so far. Therefore, the aim of the current research is to design a model of public participation in the policy making process of the country's official education based on the knowledge system of the Holy Quran.
Method: This research is developmental-applicative in terms of purpose and is considered as a mixed research. In the qualitative step, the texts of the Holy Quran and its interpretations were examined and the data were analyzed by thematic analysis method. Also, in the quantitative stage, confirmatory factor analysis method was used to validate the model. For this purpose, 115 managers and experts in the Ministry of Education were asked for their opinions with a researcher-made questionnaire. At this stage, the sample size calculation method was Cochran's formula and simple random sampling method.
Results: For the three-dimensional research model, central, process and contextual factors as well as 25 components were identified. Also, the findings of the factor analysis show the confirmation of the structure of the research model and the coefficient of determination calculated for the central, process and contextual factors are 0.679, 0.571 and 0.628, respectively, which shows that they are suitable values.
Conclusion: The knowledge system of the Holy Qur'an emphasizes people's participation in various matters, including formal education policies, and the use of its guidelines in this field can be helpful. |
