The following is the recent government sponsored tests

given to the teachers in Iran.

Iran’s national teachers’ representative body protested after the test was given to diploma and higher-diploma level teachers in Tehran province. Teachers were given 30 hours off classroom duties to study a biography of the Islam prophet Mohammad as written by the late Ayatollah Muhammad Tabatabai, a Shia philosopher whose teachings inspired many senior figures in Iran’s Islamic revolutionary movement.

I suppose in the Islamic regime’s cultural revolution it is important for Iranian students to know the answer to the following questions:
