Abstract

In this paper we argued that knowledge alone can not provide a useful framework for higher education curriculum. We need to provide students with the opportunity to get involve in practical work experience. The results indicate that there is a very concern about the practice-based pedagogy in higher education in Iran. Therefore, we need to inhance in quality of the higher education curriculum based on the pedagogical practice-based approach and the complexity of social relationships in the twenty-first century.
