Electronic learning is getting popular in the world and more universities are offering various courses through internet. This paper presents an empirical investigation on effectiveness of electronic courses in one of Iranian universities whose students were enrolled on electronic learning. The proposed study designs a questionnaire to measure the effects of this program in terms of teaching, administration and electronic content, and distributes it among 354 randomly selected students. Cronbach alpha has been calculated as 0.97, which is well above the minimum acceptable level. The study gathers all inputs in Likert scale in terms of linguistic variables. The study uses ANFIS to measure to analyze the data and the results indicate that electronic learning itself maintains the highest popularity among students (0.618) followed by electronic content (0.569) and administration efforts (0.563).

During the past few years, there has been increasing interest in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of learning organizations (LO) in universities. The theoretical basis of this study was based on a comprehensive and systematic approach to learning organization proposed by Michael Marquardt. The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefit of Islamic Azad University, Neyshabur branch as educational characteristics in terms of LO characteristics according to the science and technology dimensions. The study population included all faculty members of Islamic Azad University Neyshabur branch, 90 university professors were selected by simple random sampling, and they completed the questionnaires of the survey. The research instruments included a researcher-made questionnaire based on the Marquardt-reviewed literature and consultation with experts. The questionnaire included 50 items with a Likert scale of five degrees. Validity of the questionnaire was affirmed by calculating Cronbach & apos; s alpha coefficient. To test the hypothesis, paired t-student tests were used and the results indicated that the status of Islamic Azad University in terms of LO characteristics was significantly different from the desirable level.

This paper presents an empirical investigation to detect major barriers on developing nano technology in Islamic Azad University.

In summary, the effect of organizational justice on organizational citizenship and organizational commitment has been confirmed.

This paper presents an empirical investigation to find the relationship between English proficiency and information literacy among some selected students from Islamic Azad University in city of Semnan, Iran. The proposed study uses regression analysis as well as Pearson correlation ratio to investigate the relationship between these two variables where information literacy is the dependent variable and English proficiency is an independent variable. The survey designed a questionnaire in four different categories and they were distributed among 364 participants out of 7200 people. Cronbach alpha has been calculated as 0.7125, which validates the overall survey. The result of our study indicates that there was a strong correlation between these two variables (r=0.88 Sig. = 0.01), which means as student get more familiar with English language they will have better general information.
