Abstract: The environment in foreign trade is dynamic and complex. Today, the promotion and development of foreign trade requires the adoption of newer strategies. Iran's location in West Asia and having valuable mineral resources has a strategic position. In this study to design a structural model The purpose of this article is to identify the governing factors necessary for the realization of Iran's foreign trade in the region, to examine the relationship between them and to prioritize them for its importance. A set of new strategies And effectively obtained from a complete review of the literature and opinions of 10 experts. Then content-related relationships were selected for each pair. In addition, a hierarchical interpretive structural model was created using a structural interpretive technique. The findings of this study classify the effective factors based on driving power, influence and dependence. The findings show that knowledge-based economy is the underlying factor and the import substitution variable is one of the most dependent factors of the ISM model. These economic agreements as a model variable relationship with the impact Ray and susceptibility with high penetration and dependence, can be the intersection between other components of the model.

Abstract: The impact survey of report on teaching and learning mathematics and science in Rwandan schools indicated different challenges featuring teachers in implementation of curriculum. Some of the challenges in mathematics and science topics for teachers and students are; inadequate skills for conducting science practical works and lack of permanent friendly professional development programme. This paper reflects on how these challenges could be addressed through lesson study approach in Rwandan context. The interpretivism approach will be used in this study and some of the related model about the lesson study description and implementation. Data were collected from the existing literature pertaining to lesson study and the accessed writings from countries which have embraced and implemented the lesson study in mathematics and science were considered. The analyzed data confirm positive impacts of lesson study towards the quality of teaching and learning of mathematics and science by improving teachers’ teaching competences as well as students’ academic achievement in the countries that have implemented it. Based on the findings, a lesson study is urged to be implemented and spread in Rwandan primary and secondary schools and also being initiated in teacher preparation programmes as one of school community of practice to nurture teachers’ competences for implementing the curriculum.
