    Abstract

    In order to improve the quality and quantity of education and scientific innovations in the field of education, it is necessary to strive according to the educational programs at the global level and its effective understanding and align with the global programs and components. It has become a village where everything in the international world and societies is changing and moving. In today's world, it is believed that the idea of ??global education should be provided in the educational system according to the changes and complexity of the world, and by recognizing the goals of the components of global education, such as awareness of systems, awareness of perspective, responsibility and process mentality as the basis of movement in the content of the books taught in the country's education system, in order to take the first effective step in this direction in a practical way. Therefore, in this research, the researcher seeks to analyze the content of social studies and geography books. It has been based on global components.

    Key words: global education, content analysis, social studies, geography

    Introduction

    Knowledge of the world requires knowledge of goals and curricula in every educational system, and including goals corresponding to global components in the content of textbooks is actually an understanding of the existing reality in the direction of effective movement to advance educational goals. Any goal in order to improve effective methods in textbooks, informs the general view of the surrounding world, taking into account this feature of global education and knowing its components, it can draw a realistic vision of the world, and the learners' learning is formed according to the global view, and the learner realizes that he does not learn knowledge only in a limited local educational system, but the content of the books leads them to make more efforts in national and transnational growth and development. So the world in front of us is evolving and changing, new knowledge and science is changing every day towards becoming desirable and spreading new sciences. In this situation, we must have the ability to overcome them, considering the developments and complexities of today's world. This is also not possible unless we include global components in the content of textbooks. Therefore, an efficient educational system strives for the growth and prosperity of science and knowledge in the international arena and educates learners in the field of education and training with transnational programs in accordance with global goals and components in the society, in that case, the design and planning of such deep and global attitudes will make us very efficient in today's science. Our research is in line with the inefficiency and deficiencies in the educational system, and the researcher's efforts have been aimed at solving these problems. According to Lee Anderson, one of the pioneers of this idea, he considers global education as an awareness of global issues, issues that have affected our lives (Aladdin, 1989).

    The components of global education provide models, instructions, and work methods necessary to revise and modify the curriculum at different levels and courses of study according to the requirements and conditions, and in other words, global education attempts to create changes in the content, methods, and social status of education. It defines education to better prepare learners for citizenship in a global age. The global education system is a comprehensive and specific framework for realizing the goals and skills of life and is considered with specific plans to evolve and strengthen the way of life (Zarghami, 1388). According to the same goals, global topics and components in the content of textbooks are the main concern in this research. Therefore, the educational system should move towards the global and include these components in the textbooks, especially in the first year of secondary school where the student's personality is being formed socially.

    Educational goals in the global components and curriculum planning should consider different time, place, issues and internal dimensions, and especially the goals in the global components, awareness of the systems, awareness of the perspective, responsibility and process mentality in the educational system in a realistic form.

    Therefore, education is facing the ever-increasing expansion of communication all over the world and the basic challenge in the education system is to match the patterns and goals or to ignore the global components, which in case of not accepting the existing reality, will lead to moving away from the main subject. The education and training system should make changes in the content of textbooks in line with updating the existing goals and planning according to the needs of the society, and this will cause the growing trend in the scientific view. .

    So comprehensive development in the education system, due to the emergence of new technology in the field of education and its understanding and application in the education system is considered to be a change in the improvement of the existing situation.

    The impact of global components on the goals and content of textbooks in the education system of the country can be considered a positive step in the process of educational planning by planning according to the time and place conditions. The expectation of the educational system in the modern era is to examine the same global components and perhaps part of these existing crises is the result of the shortcomings of the same education and training of the modern era. Accordingly, global education is a watcher of common and global developments that have been formed to change the current situation in the field of education (Zarghami, 2008).

    Education and education can adapt its educational goals to global components and goals in educating students as global citizens and international characteristics in establishing very important communication in the formulation of the program (Mahdovinia, 1386).

    The relationship between the components of awareness of the systems and awareness of the perspective and responsibility and process mentality has a great impact on the interaction between the student and the educational system, and generalizing these components to the national educational programs and goals will be a step in clarifying the educational goals with a realistic and promising perspective. This thinking will make us believe that only in school and what is included in the content of the books, it is not transferred to the student, but if education is limited, in the new world of communication and information, education is transferred to the student through other means virtually, and the current generation is looking for current knowledge. With this attitude, we can reach the point that the education of the student generation should be formed in line with the growth and development of global dimensions and the same direction should be formed, and the global components and standards in the content of the books will be a promise for the global perspective. It left its mark in all fields, and to refer to these transformations, concepts such as industrial and postmodern society were used. In the 1990s, these concepts gave way to the concept of globalization (Iranzadeh, 1380).

    Participatory and active approach to the flourishing of talents should be promoted, strengthening learning environments and using various learning methods, as well as promoting integrated programs of basic education. Interaction and cooperation is at the national, regional and international level (Dell, 1998). [1]

    According to Castells, globalization is based on a network of interactions, communications and mutual dependencies between people in the farthest places, so that they too can influence the world and be equipped with the rapid spread of knowledge and information around the world (Castells[2], 1991).

    So it seems to say that it does not matter where we stand in the world, it is important in what direction we are walking. (Ahmadi, 1388)

    The components of global education propose tested solutions to improve the learning environment and enrich learning, and scientific, skill, behavioral and value goals are more effectively recognized (Motlat, Glansai, 1389). Therefore, the components of global education are a phenomenon that is relatively new, although it has important effects on people and societies in the most remote areas.
