They studied samples of prisoners in men's and women's prisons in Arak city and in five training courses (diaphoretic, crystal decorations, women's decorations, saffron cultivation, and bee breeding) in 1402 to compare traditional teaching methods. and the teaching plan was team members (TMTD).

Results: In the compared groups, the effect of the TMTD teaching method on the professional development of prisoners was shown. The results of the average comparison tests also indicate a significant difference between the two teaching methods in the field of strengthening the professional behavior of prisoners in all five training courses.
