Abstract:
Humans, in all stages of life—from childhood to adolescence, maturity, and even old age—are constantly influenced by the thoughts and behaviors of others. Environmental conditions play a role, and humans, in turn, affect their environment. What constructs human culture is the collection of these influences and being influenced; whether changes in behavior are the result of intentional and calculated efforts within formal or traditional educational systems, or whether they shape the characteristics of individuals and society through environmental influence. In any case, societal transformations stem from the influence of traditional factors as well as the intentional efforts of the formal educational system. In the history of pre-Islamic Iran and also post-Islamic Iran, at least until the contemporary era, the primary manifestation of this educational system existed in the word 'Shagerd'. The will of the sovereignty in the minds of the student or students, whether individually or collectively, in private or public places, or according to time, place, and circumstances, has been influential so that they could preserve, guide, and in some cases exploit the country's human capital along the lines of their own political thought and ideology. This research aims to investigate the manner of change and evolution of the word 'Shagerd' and its transformation into 'Danesh-amuz' (student) and other terms, as well as the surrounding causes and factors of this subject over time, even up to the present period, to achieve the ultimate goal of the article. It appears that the role of governments, especially the influence of scholars, intellectuals, and the 'elite' of society within the body of sovereignty, has not been without impact on the 'alternative' to the word 'Shagerd' in Iran's traditional and formal educational systems. Furthermore, it is probable that alignment with the educational and training policies of transborder societies has influenced the change of the word 'Shagerd'. This research has been prepared using the historical method and a library-based, documentary, and comparative approach to data collection.
Machine summary:
History and Evolution of the Word 'Shagerd' (Student/Disciple) in the Educational Ethics System of Iran Ardashir Asadbeigi Mahyar Shariatpanahi Mohammadreza Kazemi Abstract Humans, in all stages of life, from childhood to adolescence, maturity, and even in old age, are constantly influenced by the thoughts and behaviors of others.
The primary manifestation of this educational system in the history of Iran before Islam and also after Islam, at least until the contemporary era, had subject matter in a word called 'Shagerd' (student/disciple), which was governed and influential according to the will of the sovereignty in the minds of the student or students, individually or collectively, in private or public places, or according to time, place, and circumstances, so that they could preserve and guide the country's human capital along their own political thought and ideology and, when necessary, exploit it.
The education and training of primitive humans, which became objectified through the word 'Shagerd' (student/disciple), took an imitative form; meaning that a child of the family learned the ways and customs of simple family life from their father and mother and, according to their own talent and ability, progressed in achieving mastery over meeting daily life needs, sometimes even going beyond that of the father.
Time and Duration of Student Instruction in Ancient Iran For the period of study and the duration of education in ancient Iran, three different stages can be identified, which varied according to the growth of physical, mental, and spiritual powers, national characteristics, goals, and social needs.
