Education plays a critical role in transferring knowledge, and research plays a key role in producing and expanding knowledge. As one of the most important influences on these functions, the curriculum plays a significant role. The purpose of this study is to explain the goals and strategies of connected curriculum in higher education as a new concept. A qualitative and data-driven approach was used in this paper. This study included a statistical population of experts and key specialists from Shahid Beheshti, Allameh Tabatabaei, Amir Kabir and Al Zahra universities, of whom 13 were chosen to be a sample using a purposeful sampling method according to the theoretical saturation principle And it was implemented in 1401. In order to collect data, a semi-structured interview was conducted. In the process of open, selective and theoretical coding, Glazer's approach and continuous comparison were used to analyze the collected data, and the results indicated the formation of 14 main categories, 40 subcategories and 110 concepts, centered on the central category of "Education and research links." Based on the findings, the communicative curriculum is a means to achieve the objectives by linking education and research and taking into account strategies extracted. Based on the results of the research, it was found that the combination of education and research in the connected curriculum would eventually lead to the development of the university and the nation in several dimensions.

The purpose of this study was to analyze multicultural education in Iran. For this purpose, the combined research method has been used. Firstly, in a qualitative research study, the criteria for optimal multicultural education were extracted. These criteria were categorized into four main elements (goal, content, teaching methodology, evaluation) and 9 sub-elements and 50 sub-axes among the interviewees with outstanding scholars and educators Multiculturalism was achieved. Then, the criteria were extracted in a questionnaire and confirmed by five multicultural education specialists. By this questionnaire, the gap between the optimal situation of multicultural education and the status of this education in Iran was measured. Thus, 150 second-grade teachers in 2012 in Markazi province, with cluster sampling method, 60 experts and writers in high school with random sampling method and 16 multi-purpose education multi-purpose educators selected by targeted sampling method and responded to questionnaire questions. The results show that all three groups believe that the multicultural curriculum situation in Iran is lower than the average for each of the four main elements and the additional elements compared to the desired multicultural desirability of the program. But the views of teachers and authors of the book are in terms of purpose, content and teaching methods different from those of multicultural education. Data analysis shows that teachers and writers of middle-level textbooks are more positive in terms of goals, content, and teaching methods than they are in comparison with multi-cultural education professionals.
