Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of school-based curriculum with academic well-being on students' academic hope. In this study, the effectiveness of these two methods were compared.
Method: The present study is methodologically part of quasi-experimental designs of pre-test, post-test and follow-up with the control group.
